Seeing this, Leah's grandma and mother hurriedly followed her while calling her "baby", and Amelia felt relieved.

"Your cousin... is way too scary!" She sighed from the bottom of her heart.

Patrick stared at Leah's back and said, "She didn't behave like this when she was younger."

Amelia gave him a sidelong glance and said, "Why? It sounds like you feel sorry for her. You don't want to learn from Einstein and Darwin who married their cousins right?" Patrick scraped her nose and said dotingly, "You're jealous of Leah, aren't you?"

Seeing his smile, Amelia's heart beat faster. She patted his hand away shyly and angrily. "You're being self-sentimental!"

There was a hint of doting smile in Patrick's deep eyes. He said, "Leah is the one who is self-sentimental. We both are the ones who are in love with each other." Amelia's face was red, and even her ears were red. Couldn't this man look at what occasion when he speaks? All the relatives around them laughed at

them.

Seeing this scene, a relative smiled and said to Eve, "Patrick is very fond of Amelia."

Eve smiled and said, "Yes, she was picked by my husband. If she doesn't have the ability to catch a man's heart, it must be my husband that have bad choices."

These words sounded like a joke to an outsider, but to Howard, it sounded like a real mockery.

Howard's expression did not change. He continued to do what he was doing, as if he had not heard what Eve said.

At this time, the head chef of the family came over and whispered in Howard's ear to remind him that lunch was ready. As soon as he gave the order, they could invite the guest to the table. Patrick replied with a "hum" and said to the people around him in a moderate voice, "Let's talk while eating."

During the meal, Amelia carefully answered the questions from her elders. For example, "How did you and Patrick meet each other?", "Where did you meet each other?", and "What's your occupation?". What was even more terrifying was, "How many children you plan to have in the future, the more the merrier", and so on.

Amelia really wanted to tell them that she was just a human being and not a machine!

Never think that the relatives of the rich and powerful families would ask some high-end questions. In fact, it was the same. What they were most concerned about was whether you were able to pass on the family line.

Amelia was "interrogated" and barely ate any food. Patrick, who sat next to him, was happy and relaxed this year. In previous years, he would be regarded as an rare animal!

It was not easy...

Amelia was finally freed from this rich but indigestible lunch. She got up from the table and wanted to avoid further conversation by suggesting to help clean the table.

Eve gently put down her chopsticks and looked at her with a fake smile and said, "Amelia, if you have nothing to do, you should chat with the elders. The cleaning up would be done by the servants. No matter how good you are at doing house chores, you have to consider yourself now as part of The Hopper Family. Right?"

Amelia was amused. When Eve referred to her as a helper, did she ever think about her identity?

However, even if she was not happy, she would not argue with Eve in front of the elders. She answered with a good attitude, "Mom was right. I didn't think thoroughly."

"Ah! Amelia, you wash dishes yourself at home?" An elder said in surprise.

With Amelia's current status, it was normal for her to not do any house chores.

Amelia nodded with a smile and said without any grievance, "That's what I should do."

The person turned to Eve and gave her a thumbs up. "Eve, Amelia is very good. You have no idea, the status of my daughter-in-law is even higher than me. She even ordered my son, who just got off work, to mop the floor, do the cooking and wash dishes. But my son just followed whatever she ordered. Sooner or later, they will make me die of anger!"

Hearing others praised Amelia, Eve felt disgusted, but she pretended to agree on the surface and said, "Yes, I appreciate her hardy virtuous." Amelia felt inexplicably ironic. This was the first time Eve praised her, but it was only a hypocritical courtesy.

"By the way, Amelia..." The elder, who had just finished praising Amelia, continued to ask with interest, "What do you usually do at home?"

"When I don't go to work during the weekend, I'll plant some flowers and do house cleaning... Of course, I'll spend most of my time playing games on the computer." Amelia stuck out her tongue. "Haha, it's so cute." If Amelia only said her own virtues, it would seem fake.

But when she said without hesitation that she liked to play games, not only would it not make people hate it, but it would also make them feel that she was a real life person too.

Computer was an essential tool for the youth. Hearing that Amelia liked to play games, the eyes of Patrick's cousins, even the seven-or-eight-year-old nephew immediately lit up and started to talk to Amelia! "Sister Amelia, do you play "LOL1?" The cute little boy asked.

Amelia shook her head.

The cute little boy frowned and thought for a while, "What about CF?"

Amelia hesitated for a moment and then nodded slightly.

Seeing this, the cute little boy had an expression as if he had found a confidante. He excitedly stood up from his seat and said, "Which zone do you play? It's best to be in the zone 1. I'll show you around and bring you for leveling!"

Amelia revealed a look of regret. "It's a pity that I'm in Zone 2."

"Ah..." The cute little boy wrinkled her face, which was even more delicate than a girl's, and then regretfully sat back in the children chair prepared by the Hopper Family's.

"Sister Amelia, then do you play..."

"Look over here, Sister Amelia! Do you play..."

There were another two men just behind the cute little boy who introduced themselves to Amelia. It could not be denied that all men in The Hopper Family are good-looking despite the age!

Dazzling Amelia suddenly understood that there was a reason why Leah would be so crazy about Patrick!

Thinking of Leah, Amelia could not help glancing at her.

She saw that Leah was eating and she was not as interested in the little handsome man sitting next to her as before.

Amelia suddenly realized that in Leah's point of view, food first and handsome guys second.

In the living room.

It was rare for The Hopper Family to have a woman who liked to play online games. Amelia suddenly became a favorite among the boys. Of course, they just wanted to show off in front of a rookie like Amelia.
