"But... What if someone else calls me?" Amelia tilted her head.
Patrick felt her cute and immediately promised, "Then I will return the phone to you immediately."
"Alright! But Uncle Quartley has asthma. If he really calls to ask about the explosion next time, remember not to upset him." Amelia said softly.
Patrick said with a faint smile, "If he knew that the hospital his son was in exploded, he would probably fall ill without me upsetting him."
Amelia was stunned for a moment and had to admit,"... Well, that's true."
"That's it, Amy." Patrick patted his wife's face and said, "The sun has set. Shouldn't we go prepare dinner?"
At the same time, in the Home of Quartley.
Ruth could not help to ask when she saw Ryan looked awkward after he put down his phone, "What's wrong? Is it not Miss Amelia Ramsay the one who answered?"
"You're right, it was Patrick on the phone. He said that Amelia was resting and had me ask him directly. But how can I ask him about Sawyer's matter?" Ryan said gloomily.
"Or should we call Simon? He is the housekeeper on the island and should know the situation of Sawyer." Ruth suggested.
"That's fine." Ryan dialed the landline number of Streams Villa, but no one answered.
"No way. There's no one around Sawyer to be in contact." Ryan said worriedly.
Ruth suddenly said, "How about we go there directly?"
"No way! The situation on the island is still uncertain. If we go to the island rashly, we may encounter danger." Ryan was more reasonable.
"Should we really just wait passively forever? Sawyer is our only son!" Ruth could not help but burst into tears eventually.
Ryan suppressed his anxiety and consoled her, "Dear, it's always suggested to have a plan B. As Sawyer is a smart guy, I believe he will definitely be able to protect himself."
On the Land of Fragrance.
"Umm, thirsty... I'm thirsty..." Jessica, who was dizzy from the fever, murmured unconsciously in the guest room. However, her body felt as heavy as lead, and she could not wake up.
When Amelia entered with food, she saw Jessica frowning while shouting to be thirsty.
She quickly walked in. After putting the food on the table, she reached out to touch the ice bag on Jessica's forehead. After confirming that it was still cold, she retracted her hand and called out softly, "Jessica, get up and eat."
"Thirsty..." Jessica said.
"I cooked porridge for you. It'll quench your thirst." Amelia said. She helped up her upper body and leaned Jessica against herself. Then, she took the bowl from the table. She spooned the porridge and blew it a few times before carefully placing it against Jessica's lips.
Feeling the watery porridge, Jessica immediately pressed her lips together and subconsciously asked for more.
Amelia took the opportunity to send the spoon into her mouth and started feeding her spoon by spoon.
After finishing the bowl of porridge, Amelia asked softly, "Jessica, are you still thirsty?"
Noticing that Jessica was silent, Amelia took it as she had a sufficient intake of water.
She put the empty bowl back on the table. She then reached for the medicine prescribed by Paisley and a glass water. Fortunately, Jessica could stand the bitterness, so she had fed her very smoothly.
After wiping Jessica's mouth clean, Amelia laid her back on the bed.
However, it was not a good way to let Jessica remain naked. As there was still a man walking around in the house after all.
Thinking of this, Amelia immediately returned to her bedroom got a set of pajamas. It took her some effort to put them on Jessica. Then she sat at the bedside and took a few breaths.
"Amelia..."
When she heard the voice behind her, Amelia turned back in surprise and saw that Jessica was looking at her as if they had been separated for a lifetime.
"Jessica!" Amelia grabbed her hand excitedly and asked, "Are you awake?"
Propping herself up, Jessica held her hand and said with red eyes, "Amelia, I thought I could never come back..."
"I also thought that you couldn't escape this time. You almost scared me to death!" Amelia said angrily and anxiously.
"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to worry you. I just badly wanted to avenge my child!" Jessica said as she burst into tears.
Being frightened for days and being on the line between life and death just a few hours ago had greatly frightened the ordinary woman.
At the moment, the emotions she had hidden from Wayne and the others were immediately expressed as she saw Amelia, who was close to her.
Amelia took Jessica into her arms and said in a low voice, "Cry it out, everything will be fine."
After letting Jessica vent her feelings for a while, Amelia patted her on the shoulder and said, "Jessica, can you tell me about the entire story?"
Jessica first told her about the 'observation schedule' as she heard that, then continued, "I waited for the time of Sawyer's absence to deliberately send the man who used to watch me away. I crawled out of the window, picked up a rock from the beach and hid it behind my back. Then I lied to Sissi that I was the new nanny. When she turned back to get her phone, I made up my mind to attack her! When she fell, she happened to press against her stomach, and then she miscarried..."
Amelia felt relieved as she heard that. It turned out that Jessica had not deliberately killed Sissi's child.
Ruth spread the newly delivered newspaper in front of Ryan. "Ryan, look at today's newspaper. It said that the explosion on the island is caused by gas leakage. As for Sawyer, he has gone abroad on a business trip."
Picking up the newspaper, Ryan carefully read through the report, "Since the police inquired Simon and Savannah for transcripts, I think it should bethetruth."
"But if it's the truth, why didn't Sawyer and Simon pick up our call?" Thinking of her son, Ruth had a bad feeling.
Ryan was confused. "Could the loyal Simon and Savannah be lying?"
"I'm not questioning their loyalty of course. I was just worried that they wouldn't dare to tell the truth to the media and the police, so..." Ruth hesitated, as if all servants on the island had been controlled
by terrorists!
"Your worry is reasonable as well. How about I immediately head to Streams Villa to see what's going on now!"
"I'll go with you!"
Ryan objected. "If you go, who's going to take care of Abner?"
Ruth could only give up the idea.
Before leaving, Ryan said to Ruth, "Honey, Abner is still a child. Put away the newspaper and remote control later, in case the news on the island frightens him."
"Okay, got it." Ruth replied and reminded worriedly, "Ryan, if you encounter any situation on the island, don't push yourself too far! Just call the police if possible. Do you understand?"
"Yes!"
On the other side, on the Land of Fragrance.
After Amelia woke up, she gently moved the arm on her chest aside. When she was about to get off the bed, the arm wrapped around her again and brought her back to the soft bed. "Good morning, Mrs. Hopper..."
Amelia turned around and asked, "Good morning, Mr. Hopper. Did I wake you up?"
Patrick replied lazily, "Yes." Then he asked, "Has the woman got better?"
Amelia was surprised by his concern for Jessica in the early morning. So she answered, "She's much better now."
"So can she leave today?" Patrick paused and continued, "I mean to leave with her daughter."
Amelia became speechless. She thought of taking back her surprise!
