Of course he could not say that he accidentally hit his face when hitting a mosquito, could he?
Hearing this, Patrick glanced at her and asked with a faint smile, "Oh, are you afraid now? Are you worried that they will come after you?"
Amelia said angrily, "Who says I'm afraid? Don't make it sound like you are the only one who has a handprint on your face, okay? I just don't want to explain much on this matter!"
"Don't worry, they'll only think that you have some kind of fetish in bed."
As he spoke, Patrick forcefully wiped his handsome face which skin tone was uneven with a towel.
This was probably one of the few things that had made him feel defeated apart from his cooking skills!
Amelia clenched her teeth and asked, "Excuse me, what kind of fetish do I have in bed? Would you please make it clear to me, Mr. Patrick?"
Patrick raised his eyebrows and said, "What else can it be? Sadism it is! To be more specific, slapping me while showing affections to me..."
As he said this, he threw away the towel and looked at the skin tone of both sides of his face in the mirror. After he nodded his head out of bare satisfaction, he intended to leave the bathroom.
"Hold on!" Amelia, who was standing at the door of the bathroom, pushed him back as she blushed. "Fine! I'll do it!"
"Oh! Do it? Right now?" Patrick's eyes lit up. He lifted his hand and began to untie his tie.
"Not it!" He made Amelia extremely mad. She showed him the foundation in her palm, pointed at it and said, "The makeup!"
Patrick's face was full of pity. His hands even dropped from his loosened tie. "I thought you were referring to doing some other things."
Amelia was furious and said, "In your dreams!"
Patrick's eyes darkened. "How do you know that I often dreamt of you in my dreams?"
"You..." Amelia's chest heaved heavily. In terms of eloquence, she would never be able to defeat Patrick in her entire life!
Bah!
F*cking entire life!
This was impossible!
She would divorce him sooner or later!
Looking at Amelia who was lost in thought, Patrick asked curiously, "Mrs. Hopper, what are you thinking about?"
Amelia, who was in a daze, subconsciously blurted out, "Divorce!"
Right after she spoke, Amelia felt that the temperature around her dropped sharply. She was annoyed for a short moment in her heart, but then she became indifferent again.
"That's what you're thinking about!" Patrick frowned deeply. After a moment, he sneered and said, "Then I think you'll probably have to work hard for the rest of your life on the matter of divorcing me ."
Amelia was slightly stunned. "What do you mean by that?"
As if he was making a pledge, Patrick said in a fierce tone, "If I don't agree to the divorce for the rest of my life, you can only be Mrs. Hopper until you die!"
Amelia was stunned for a while, then she clenched her fist and said angrily, "You b*stard! Is it meaningful for you to torture me like this?"
Patrick replied coldly. "Yes! If you make me distressed, I won't let you have a good time either! If you dare to mention about divorce again, I will do you! The kind that you'd rather die!"
"You!" Amelia found that she already had the thought of dying when being teased by him!
Just when she was angry and was ready to raise the foundation in her hand to fight with him, she heard him say...
Fortunately, Patrick reached out his hand to grab her waist in time and brought her up.
"Thank you. You can let go now."
After Amelia steadied herself, she found that Patrick's arm were still firmly attached to her.
Not far away, gossiping gazes from
Granny Hopper and the others made her feel slightly uncomfortable.
However, Patrick got to press her tightly on his chest with this posture.
In the audience's view, Amelia was a clingy little lady while Patrick was a gentle and sweet man. They were a perfect match for each other.
Beside the table, Florence laughed in a low voice and said, "Hey, look, Amelia's legs are feeble and her waist is powerless. Patrick must have made her suffer a lot in the room."
Granny Hopper's face was full of smiles. "Seeing Patrick care so much about each of Amelia's moves, I'm relieved!"
Nora said gently, "Granny, you really don't have to worry about this. Patrick definitely cares for Amelia with great solicitude. Once, when Amelia stayed in our house, Patrick even called and asked me to go to the guest room to check if she was comfortable living there"
Granny Hopper was so happy that she nodded continuously. "From what you've said, I can finally...put my heart in a safe place without worries."
At this moment, Ashley interrupted, "Mom, aunt, granny, are we still going to continue?"
Nora was not ready to react so she asked, "Continue on what?"
"Playing cards." She had earned pocket money from Florence that she became addicted.
