After a while, Patrick touched her red lips with his finger and smiled, "You did a good job. I'm very satisfied."
Amelia rolled her eyes at him and softly asked, "Now can you tell me how you persuaded Dad?"
Patrick smiled and said, "It's actually very simple. I told Dad that you refused to my investment in the Apex Construction Corporation back then. He understood."
Amelia understood and said, "I see."
Patrick joked while playing with her hair, "Dad is much smarter than you."
How could Amelia not hear that he was laughing at her for not accepting his kindness? As a result, she immediately pinched his waist and pursed her lips. "Who asked you to be in contact with Sissi? Besides, haven't I done self-criticism?"
When Patrick heard the name "Sissi", he subconsciously felt a burst of natural disgust, followed by nervousness.
What was there to be nervous about?
He was so nervous that his wife misunderstood him.
"Amy, who is Sissi? Why don't I know her?"
Amelia was irritated by him and laughed. When she looked up, she found that this guy was looking at her like a fool.
She even laughed and scolded, "Why are you so annoying?"
Seeing her smile, Patrick was relieved. "Yes, yes, I'm the most annoying. Not everyone in this world is like you. You're lovable."
As he spoke, he started rubbing her smooth neck.
Amelia was amused and chuckled. She pushed his head with less force and said, "Alright, stop playing. Let's go home. Didn't you say you want to drink mung bean soup? The chef has already prepared it for you back at home."
In fact, she not only told the chef to make mung bean soup, but also told him to make some anti- pyretic food. Although she was good at cooking, she couldn't compare with chefs. Now if she had any idea with Patrick, she would tell the chef. As a result, each meal was obviously more than before.
However, Patrick always said that the chef was not as good as her. She knew that he was trying to help her. So she smiled and did not say anything, as if she accepted his kindness.

On the Land of Fragrance.
Seeing Patrick and his wife come back, the chef wittily brought out two bowls of mung bean soup. The difference was that Patrick's mung bean soup was iced, while Amelia mung bean soup was warm and the sugar was put in a relatively small amount. The red bean and jujube were also added in the soup, which could be used to nourish the blood of a pregnant woman like Amelia.
Amelia couldn't help but sigh at Patrick. "A professional is just different!"
Patrick replied as usual, "Not as good as you."
The flatter made Amelia feel very comfortable. "Fine, fine, fine. Tomorrow I'll personally cook a table of dishes for you. I guarantee that you will be satisfied."
However, Patrick objected, "Amy, don't go to the kitchen to join in the fun. I don't like it."
Amelia gurgled, "You just praised my cooking skills”
Seeing his wife listening silently, Patrick thought that she was disappointed. He couldn't help but grit his teeth and said, "If it really doesn't work, it's not impossible for my mother to identify Sawyer at the court!"
Upon hearing this, Amelia's heart trembled.
She thought about it. Eve was Patrick's mother and had an inextricable relationship with The Hopper Family. If Eve identified Sawyer at the court, then Eve would naturally have to tell all the dirty stories that she had committed together with Sawyer. At that time, it would really become a joke!
Her mother- in- law had planned to let her daughter-in-law vanish from the face of the earth. Moreover, it was on the most eyecatching wedding ceremony. In the end, her son was struck by the knife without a clear reason. Regardless of whether these evidence were true or not, it was enough for people to talk and laugh about it.
"Mr. Hopper, you hesitated just now because you wanted to leave her some leeway, didn't you?"
Patrick was stunned for a moment and then said in a hoarse voice, "After all, this is related to the reputation of the entire Hopper Family. Grandpa said that we should try our best to erase her traces from this kidnapping case.
The Hopper Family couldn't spoil their reputation because of a spoil apple. However, Grandpa also said that if there's no way to pry open Sawyer's mouth, then he'll start with my mom, only asking for your innocence."
Amelia was moved by his words. She couldn't help but jump into his arms and kiss his handsome face three times. She held his arm and shook it like a spoiled child. "Mr. Hopper, you are all so nice!"
Whether it was Gramps Hopper, Howard, Owen, Patrick, or the men of The Hopper Family, they were all gentle enough and responsible. She truly loved them! Especially the one standing in front of her!
Recalling that she had kissed him twice today, Patrick could not help but smile.
His smile was very beautiful, especially his deep and sharp eyes, which made Amelia's legs numb.
Patrick saw her staring at him with a confused look and felt a little restless. He rolled his eyes and said, "All right, it's almost time. I'll take you to take a bath."
