Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) -
Chapter 471
"Hmm," Patrick was satisfied. He had always liked smart people.
As Hayden followed behind the housekeeper, and appeared in front of Patrick, he raised his eyebrows, "Did you go out?"
Hayden was going to pull the chair but he stopped and exclaimed in a low voice, "No way
Brother Patrick! You don't even know whether I went out? You don't really care about me!"
The housekeeper tried to ease the situation by saying, "Mr. Hayden, the house is so big and our Mr. Hopper is a busy man. That's why he didn't realize it. You'd better tell our master first before you go out next time."
"I got it! I was just kidding." Hayden answered and then sat opposite Patrick. He stared at the Patrick's pasta and said with regret, "If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have gone out to eat. It's expensive and not delicious at all!"
When Patrick heard Hayden's complaint, he put down his chopsticks, "Didn't I say that the housekeeper is coming?"
Hayden said gloomily, "You told me clearly, 'Wait for
Amelia to come downstairs and make breakfast'. I thought that Amelia was at home. However, when I went out to throw the trash, I ran into her. It made me think that I had experienced something supernatural."
Patrick found it both funny and annoying. "You really hold your grudge. Do you need me to apologize to you?"
Hayden licked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "I can't accept your apology. However, I think it's fine if you could compensate me with a plate of pasta."
When Patrick heard this, he winked at the housekeeper. The housekeeper immediately went to the kitchen to get Hayden some pasta.
After a while, a plate of delicious pasta was placed in front of Hayden. Then Hayden suddenly asked a strange question, "By the way, how can you let your wife stay overnight alone in the mountains? Aren't you afraid that she will be in danger?"
Patrick's easy-going expression became slightly tense. "What did Amelia tell you?"
"Oh! I asked her why she didn't sleep at home last night. Amelia said that she climbed the mountain yesterday and stayed overnight at the top because she wanted to watch the sunrise. I was shocked when I heard, so I asked her why she didn't ask you to hike with her. She didn't reply."
After a while, Hayden looked at Patrick carefully. When he noticed Patrick's expression did not change, he said, "After all Amelia is just a young woman. What if she was in danger on the mountain? You'd bette spend more time with her in the future."
Patrick's thin lips lifted slightly. "Looks like she's been wronged."
This was Amelia's way of getting sympathy. Just a few words and people would think that he was a bad person. It made her looked like a pitiful girl staying with a bad guy. Afterwards she would hide proudly in the dark and watch everyone accusing him of fickleness.
On the other hand, Hayden, who did not know that his words had misled Patrick, finished the pasta and said. "Wow! It tastes good. Aunty, your cooking skill is amazing!"
The housekeeper squinted and smiled. "There's more in the kitchen if you like it."
Patrick had no appetite. He had already got up and headed upstairs.
As Amelia had just fmshed showering and walked out of the bathroom, she heard a loud bang from the side. The noise scared her so much that her body
shook.
She turned her head stiffly to look at the person glaring at her angrily in the doorway. Who else could it be other than Patrick?
A hint of coldness flashed through her watery eyes. Amelia asked as calmly as possible, "What can I do for you?"
"Amelia! You're putting on a show again!" Patrick had a look of mockery on his face. His clenched fists showed his anger.
"Putting on a show?" Amelia frowned.
Patrick walked close to her after few words. He stared at her heavenly eyes which could always be disguised as pure and stainless, "How could you talk bad about me in front of anyone? Since you suffer so much, why don't you vent it out to me?"
Amelia looked at him and said word by word, "I didn't say bad things about you in front of anyone. If you insist on saying this, please show me the evidence!"
Patrick flared up, "What Hayden said is the evidence!"
Amelia was stunned. "What does this have to do with Hayden? Since I know him, I can't count the number of times I've spoken with him. Not to mention that he is your cousin. Even if I really wanted to replace someone to talk bad about you, I
won't choose Hayden to vent to!"
Patrick's eyes turned even colder. "So you think I wronged you on purpose?"
Amelia smiled sorrowfully, "Anyway, it's not the first time that you've wronged me."
"Good." Patrick suddenly reached out to hold her left hand and pulled her out of the room.
Patrick locked her between the corridor rail with his body when he saw that she wanted to slip away. He turned his head and shouted to Hayden downstairs, "Hayden, Amelia and I need you to clarify something!"
"Huh?" Hayden raised his head with a spoon in his mouth. His face was blank when he saw Patrick and Amelia's posture. He suddenly became envious.
"Valentine's Day was quite a while ago but how could they still show public affection?" Hayden thought. "I should always be prepared to see things like this when I stay at Land of Fragrance." Hayden said moodily while holding the spoon in his mouth, "Patrick, Amelia, I have already witnessed your love. Don't show off."
Patrick who was upstairs heard this and showed a puzzled look on his handsome face. He realized that the posture between Amelia and him was too intimate.
From Hayden's point of view, Amelia was like a little rabbit nestled gently in his arms. However, only Patrick knew how hard Amelia had secretly stepped on his feet!
"Behave yourself!" After Patrick whispered this sentence in her ear, he continued to ask Hayden, "Hayden, repeat your conversation with your cousin-in-law this morning. Let me hear it again." Hayden said straightforwardly, "Patrick, do you have Alzheimer? I just told you a few minutes ago and you've already forgotten?"
The rage coming out of Patrick's eyes almost burned Hayden who was downstairs. Patrick said, "Say it again!"
"Alright!" Hayden was afraid that Patrick would drive him out of the Land of Fragrance. He said in a serious tone, "When I met Amelia at the door this morning, I was wondering why she didn't come back all night, so I asked her what happened. As a result, Amelia said that she went to Mount Logan to see the sunrise and stayed at the top of the mountain all night. I asked her if she was alone. She asked me when you came back..."
Hayden still wanted to go on but was interrupted by Patrick, "That meant she did not deny that she climbed the mountain alone?"
How despicable Amelia was to not to mention that
Patrick accompanied her!
Before Hayden could answer, the furious Patrick grabbed Amelia's arm and went back to his room to settle matters with her!
