One side was honey while on the other was poison. Amelia could not help but think that Patrick might have already achieved his goal.
And that goal was Amelia who lived a suffering and struggling existence at the time being. His appearance kept reminding her of the past, both good and bad.
"Missy, you're back?"
"Hmm." She changed into slippers and asked the maid, "Did Alice go out today?"
"No, but..." The maid lowered her voice and looked a little strange. "Little missy is back from the hospital."
What?
Amelia stopped what she was doing and asked, "When did this happen?"
The maid said softly, "Just now, I heard little missy said that she came back by taxi, I know nothing other than that."
Just as the maid finished speaking, the phone in Amelia's handbag rang.
She walked out and took out her cell phone. As soon as she said hello, she heard the other end of the phone shouting, "Amelia, I am Kimberley!"
"Kimberley?"
On the other side of the phone, Kimberley asked quickly and urgently, "Listen to me, when I was making the rounds at the ward an hour ago, I found that your sister was missing! I asked the people who lived with her, but they said that they didn't know where she went, so I want to ask you, did she go home?"
Amelia replied, "Yes, she is already home, but it seems that she ran out secretly. Didn't she tell you in advance?"
"It's fine that she's home, although she didn't tell me in advance," Kimberley said. Then she sighed, "Your sister is really... something. I was almost scared to death by her!"
Amelia said softly, "Sorry to worry you. She's immature."
Kimberley smiled and said, "It's okay, then I'll go and tell my colleagues to stop looking for her."
Amelia answered, "Well, thank you. I'll treat you to dinner some other day."
While Amelia was having a conversation with
Kimberley at the door, in the living room...
"Mom, I heard someone come in just now. Do you think it's Amelia?"
Brittany put one leg on the coffee table so that the family doctor could bandage the injury and asked the beautiful woman beside her.
Alice glared at her. "Oh, you could take it upon yourself to come back from the hospital, but your sister couldn't come home after finishing her work?"
Brittany said pitifully, "Mom, I sneaked back from the hospital because I missed you. You haven't visited me for a few days. Do you know how lonely I am and how painful my wounds are? I cried so many times!"
Alice said, "I know, I know. But I can't be softhearted to you anymore. Otherwise, it's unfair to your sister. Besides, she has a high school classmate who is a nurse in the hospital. Isn't there someone taking care of you?"
Brittany glanced in the direction of the door. When she saw that no one else had entered, she said, "Then aren't you afraid that Amelia will seek revenge for herself and have her high school classmates torture me?"
Alice felt offended and said, "Brittany, you...! Why do you always say such things?!"
Brittany hated Amelia very much, but she realized that Alice was protective of Amelia. She said sweetly, "Mom, I'm kidding! I know that the injuries and hospitalization are what I deserved. Amelia also had pleaded with The Hopper Family generously and paid for the hospital expenses. She also asked her high school classmates to take care of me. I was wrong. I was wrong. Is that okay!"
The next second, the cold voice of Amelia echoed slowly. "Since you know you're wrong, why did you sneak out of the hospital and make Kimberley worry about you?"
Brittany heard what Amelia said and immediately turned to look at Amelia. Her face became contorted as she suppressed her anger. "Sis, I didn't tell Kimberley because I'm afraid she'll stop me from recuperating at home. I missed mom, so I just came back!"
When she finished speaking, Brittany moved a little to Alice's side, looking like a frightened little animal.
Amelia looked at Brittany coldly. What Brittany feared the most was Amelia, not Kimberley!
After the meal, Amelia returned to her room. Before she sat down, her mobile phone rang.
She picked it up and saw that it was Sawyer.
Her eyes turned cold. She shut her phone and went into the bathroom.
A minute later, her door rang.
Amelia was lifting her skirt in the bathroom. She had to pull it back in a hurry and ran out to open the door.
"What's wrong?"
"Missy, someone called you."
"Who was it?"
"It sounds like a man, but he didn't say who he was."
"Could it be Kai den?"
"It's not Mr. Kaiden. His voice is not that mature."
"All right, I'll go down with you.
When Amelia ran downstairs and answered the
call, it turned out to be Sawyer again.
She frowned and thought to herself, These men are all problematic!"
