Patrick raised the corner of his mouth and thought, "It feels so good that my dear wife won't despise me no matter what!"
After Amelia pulled the bag back into her arms, she was relieved and said with a little depression, "Why am I serious? You hide my bag for nothing and make me look for it all over the place. The doctors and students will probably misunderstand that I am making fun of them!"
Patrick said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. They wouldn't dare to do anything to you even if you made fun of them."
Amelia frowned and said, "You asked me to get lost, didn't you? Why did you change your mind?"
A trace of discomfort flashed on Patrick's face when Amelia mentioned this. He said in a rough voice, "You would do as I say even If I ask you to get lost? When did you become so obedient? Don't you think I'm just joking with you? You don't have any sense of humor at all..."
"Oh, according to what you said, let's say I curse you to die, then I tell your corpse that I am joking with you after you have committed suicide. Do you think this is appropriate?" Amelia complained
expressionlessly.
Patrick tried to save his dignity by saying, "The word 'get lost' is just a type of modal particle, but the word 'die' is really cursing me to die!"
Amelia was amazed by his shamelessness. "Haha, it turns out that 'get lost' is a type of modal particle. I think the English classes that I went to before were all in vain."
"It's good that you know it! I'm going to sleep!" After saying that, Patrick pulled the quilt up to the top of his head.
The quilt was designed according to the length of the bed, and Patrick's height was almost longer than the bed. When he pulled the quilt, his feet were being left outside of the quilt.
Amelia raised her beautiful eyebrows, took out her mobile phone from her bag, and took a close-up on his feet.
After that, she took photos of the environment in the ward. Finally, she opened her Whatsapp and sent the two photos to Patrick's secretary.
It did not take long for Whatsapp to ring.
Miss Secretary's replied was full of question marks.
Amelia replied, "Miss Secretary, I'm sorry to disturb you at such a late time. Here's the thing, your boss had very serious dermatophytosis and is being treated in the hospital. So he asked me to tell you that he may not be able to go to work tomorrow morning."
Miss Secretary was too shocked that her reply was full of exclamation marks.
Amelia replied, "Miss Secretary, you don't have to be so shocked. Your boss has some small problems, such as farting while sleeping, grinding teeth while dreaming, hemorrhoids, and so on. Oh, by the way, the small secrets should be between you and me. You shall not spread it out. Alright, this should be all for the message that he had asked me to convey. Have a good rest, Miss Secretary."
After confirming that she sent out the message, Amelia put the phone back into her leather bag.
The next second, Patrick got out of the bed unwillingly and asked, "Who are you texting?"
Amelia said frankly, "Your secretary."
Patrick was stunned for a moment. "My secretary?"
Amelia nodded. "Yes."
Patrick asked in confusion, "Why were you contacting her?"
Amelia said, "I'm telling her in advance that if your neck is not recovering tomorrow, you will not be able to go to the company so that she could be prepared."
"Oh, I see." Patrick believed it.
Amelia threw a glance at the alarm clock and said, "It's already midnight. You should get some rest."
"What about you?" Patrick asked anxiously.
"Getting lost." Amelia was compendious.
Patrick's face turned dark. He made a mistake. He thought that Amelia would not be able to escape from his tricks, but in the end, the situation was another way round.
"Ahem!" He discussed with Amelia in a low voice, "Can't you stay? I need someone to take care of me."
Amelia said with a proud face, "I can help you to ask a nurse over. They're much more professional than me."
If Patrick pretended to be asleep, he would have woken up at the moment when Amelia pulled out her hand. He was not moving at this time, so he must be really asleep.
Amelia supported her upper body and grabbed the quilt that slipped to the side of her waist in time. She held it with one hand and stood up. She first picked up the suit jacket covering Patrick's chest and put it aside, then laid the quilt over his body.
After doing this, Amelia put on his suit jacket and leaned on the edge of the bed. This time, she slept soundly.
The next day, early in the morning.
Patrick was woken up by the bird's twitter outside the window.
Since there was no air conditioner but only fan in the ward, Amelia opened the window when she got up early to get some ventilation.
When Patrick woke up, the first thing he did was to find Amelia.
He turned his neck around stiffly like a robot, only to find that there was no one else in the room except him.
This made him frown slightly. When he was about to take out his mobile phone, he heard the sound of
water flowing from the bathroom.
"Amelia, you are in the toilet?" He shouted.
Hearing the noise, Amelia walked out, wiping her hands, and said to Patrick, who was on the bed, "You're awake? How do you feel? Do you feel better?"
Patrick's expression softened. He replied with, "I'm fine." Then he grabbed the bed shaft and was ready to get up.
Amelia hurried to help him.
Seeing that he moved in a hurry, she could not help to ask, "Do you want to go to the toilet?"
