"Milton is Patrick's friend?"
What else could Hobart's men say? They scrambled to their feet and ran away in the cold eye of Patrick's men.
Compared with failing the mission, Patrick was more horrible!
Patrick's men cleaned up the scene and then left quietly.
Milton in the room clenched the doorknob with his five fingers. He was angry, not scared.
If it were not for the fact that Sierra was at home, he would not have let it go so easily!
At the same time.
While driving back to the Ramsay residence after work, Patrick received the report from his subordinates, he said lightly, "You did a good job. Go on."
After returning to the Ramsay residence, he told Amelia about this and it made her frown. "Did Hobart find out that Maryanne had secretly gone to see Milton, so he sent people to seek revenge?"
Patrick shook his head. "I'm not sure yet."
"No matter what, Hobart is too cruel! Aunt Sierra is already old. What if his men hurt her?"
"Don't worry, I won't let Hobart's men break into the Home of Look."
Amelia nodded and said, "It seems that Milton and Maryanne have to go abroad as soon as possible. I was wrong before."
"I thought that Aunt Sierra can stay in Northville as she wishes. Now I think it's better for Aunt Sierra to go abroad with Milton, lest Hobart takes revenge on her if she stays."
Patrick said confidently, "I can help when the time comes."
Amelia looked at him with a faint smile. "Thank you, Mr. Hopper."
In the end, she changed the topic. "By the way, what you said to Kaiden at noon today was a lie, wasn't it?"
Patrick did not expect her to ask about it. He could not help but be surprised. "What?"
Amelia stared at him and said, "You said that his work was criticized by those masters. When did you hire them? Why didn't I hear you mention it?"
Patrick said briefly, "In fact, I'm in the process of inviting them over."
"In other words, they are not here yet, right?"
"... Yes."
Amelia showed an expression of "as expected" and said, "Didn't you deliberately make up those words to make him feel bad?"
Patrick admitted,"... Yes."
Amelia asked, "Aren't you afraid that he will find it when he goes to work?"
Patrick replied, "I'm not afraid. I have another way."
Amelia sighed and stressed, "He's my cousin. Is it necessary to do that?"
Patrick's eyes turned cold. "In my eyes, there is no such thing as a cousin. There is only the distinction between a man and a woman."
Amelia felt both funny and angry. "If I were like you, you would even need to hire a man to be your secretary."
Patrick looked at her seriously and said, "If you want my secretary to be a man, then I will replace my secretary with a man from tomorrow."
"I'm kidding!" Amelia did not want the secretary to lose her job because of her words!
Patrick looked serious and said, "Don't make such a joke in the future. I will take it seriously."
"Hey, you’re not serious, are you?" Amelia was startled by the seriousness in his words. She thought to herself, since when did he become so serious that he could not even take a joke now?
Patrick suddenly raised his hand and scraped her nose. Then, he laughed and said, "I was just kidding!"
"You are fooling me!" Amelia was so angry that she pounded his chest.
Patrick snorted, half closed his eyes, and enjoyed it. "Very comfortable. Hit me harder."
Amelia immediately couldn't hit him anymore.
Patrick noticed that she had stopped and he said unhappily, "Why don't you continue?"
The corners of Amelia's mouth twitched. How could she say that he sounded as if he was enjoying it?
"Do you need me to help you?" Patrick said as he took her small hand and put it on his chest. "Come on, go on."
Wait, what was he doing?
Amelia felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to withdraw her hand, but Patrick cleverly threw her into his arms.
She looked up hurriedly and saw him smiling at her. He had done it intentionally!
Patrick, who had captured his wife, finally showed his true colors. "You want to run away after beating me? How dare you!"
"Then what do you want?"
"Well... let me think." Patrick looked at her and finally stopped at her chest. "It's impolite not to reciprocate, or I'll..."
Amelia didn't wait for him to finish and said angrily, "You wish! Let me go, or others will see us!"
Didn't he notice that there were more servants around them now? They all came to see them make fun of themselves!
"So what if they see it?" Patrick tried to reason with her. "You're allowed to assault my chest, but you're trying to stop me from doing that?"
Seeing his sincere attitude, George smiled again and said, "Come on, I will definitely beat you today!"
Patrick played dumb. "Didn't you defeat me every day?"
"You let me win on purpose. Don't think I don't
know!"
Hearing this, Patrick nodded his head. This time he used a more playful tone, "Dad, you're right.”
George was speechless for a long while. "You really did it on purpose, rascal?"
Patrick answered innocently, "Didn't you see through it? If I deny it again, wouldn't that be too hypocritical?"
"You rascal!" George laughed and touched Patrick's head. He accidentally touched Patrick's bangs, revealing the scar that was left by the car accident.
George's gaze froze. He had heard about this from his eldest daughter before. Eve tried everything to kill his eldest daughter, but in the end, she ended up with nothing.
He also heard that Howard had handed over the divorce agreement to Eve, who was in prison, but Eve refused to sign it.
Under George's caring gaze, Patrick casually adjusted his fringe and said, "I'm sorry if I scared you."
"No, I am not scared." George denied, "On the contrary, I feel that you are very manly."
Patrick's voice was warm. "You flatter me too much, dad."
"At that time, you could think of protecting Amy in the first place, which really impressed me and changed the way I think of you."
Patrick smiled and said, "This is what I should do. I failed too much in the last marriage. The only thing I could think of at that time was to use my life to win her heart."
George also smiled and said, "It's so good. After so many hardships, you can now talk about it in a relaxed tone."
Patrick nodded. "I hope you will be able to face the sad things one day too."
George was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was referring to the matters about Brittany and Daniel. He could not help but say in a serious tone, "Of course! You guys are much younger than me and you can do it. There's no reason why an old fellow like me can't do it!"
"That's good." Patrick smiled and asked, "Dad, aren't we going to play chess?"
"Yes, let's play chess!"
Then, with high spirits, George really won a round.
But he insisted that Patrick let him win on purpose, and said that he would make him angry if he let him win again in the next round, which made Patrick laugh happily.
On the other side, Amelia who accompanied Alice in making baby clothes suddenly realized something, "Alice, what's wrong with your hand?"
Alice uttered an "eh" and said with some embarrassment, "It's nothing."
