Chapter 851
Before Amelia went upstairs, she did not forget to ask about Brittany situation for Alice. "Qian Qian, where is
Brittany?"
Kiara said, "Oh, Ms. Brittany is already asleep."
"Okay, its fine then. You should get srest too."
As soon as her voice fell, Amelia took Patrick upstairs.
On the second floor.
As they passed Daniel's bedroom, Amelia slightly tilted her head and gave it a glance.
Seeing that the door was closed and that there was no light seeping out of it, it was obvious that Brittany was
really asleep. Unexpectedly, her action made Patrick's expression darken and he unconsciously tightens his grip
on Amelia's shoulder. Seeing her knitting her brows, he immediately let go of her as his heart ached for her as
well
"This is my room."
As Amelia pushed open the door, Patrick saw
Amelia's boudoir in The Ramsay Mansion for the
first time.
Her room's temperament was very much like hers. It was clean and simple and it was not as pinkish and
sweetish as he had imagined. "You grew up here?"
"I lived here before | graduated from high school. Back then, | wasn't financially independent. So, | had nowhere
else to go except staying here." Patrick could easily sense the helplessness in her words. "What happened after
that?"
"Later, after four years of college, | returned to Northville with my roommate Jessica and we rented a house
outside. | passed the interview and entered Roxxon Corporation as a clerk while she chose to run a cafe."
A dark light flashed through Patrick's eyes.
"Wow, Jessica started running a cafe as soon as she returned to the Northville? Well, she is quite capable... Is it
the one she's in now?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAmelia nodded. "Yes, what's wrong?"
Patrick guided her. "As far as | know, Jessica doesn't have a strong family background but her cafe is in the
commercial street of Northville. Don't you think it's strange?"
Amelia shrugged. "I've thought of it before. And | tried to ask Jessica about it after that, but she said that most of
the capital used in opening the cafe was by taking a loan from the bank."
Patrick sneered, "According to her, the bank that provided her with her capital wasn't a financial bank, was it? It
was more likely a welfare agency."
The fact was, it was impossible to run a cafe in Northville without at least a few millions capital.
As for Jessica's social qualifications and her house when she just graduated, it was really difficult for her to
persuade the bank to allocate so much money for her to start a business. Amelia frowned and felt that there was
something in Patrick's words. "What do you mean?"
Patrick smiled intriguingly. "I once investigated her family thoroughly in order to deal with Jocelyn. | found that
Jocelyn's daughter has a complicated background. But | didn't have tto investigate more. After all, all |
wanted to deal with was Jocelyn. But if you are interested in Jessica's past, | can...you know."
Amelia shook her head. "There's no need. Thank you."
Patrick asked, "Aren't you curious? Don't you want to know where Jessica got her money? Don't you want to
know if she's clean?
While they were talking, they both sat on Amelia's
bed.
Amelia's bed was very warm and soft, just like how she was, it gave Patrick a feeling of sinking under a
quicksand.
Right at this moment, Amelia said, "I know that you have a prejudice against Jessica and her mother but she has
always been my friend. | don't want you to investigate her in private again or harass her. Everyone has a bottom
line. I have one, you have it and so does Jessica. | want you to respect the difference between each other so that
we can coexist."
Even so, her mind was unconsciously filled with Patrick's words. Where did Jessica get the money for opening a
cafe? Was it really like what he said, did she really loan her money from the bank? "Actually, no matter how did
she get her money, she's still my friend," Amelia said to herself.
If that was the case, why would she need to brainwash herself? Her reaction made Patrick's lips twitched.
He admitted that he was deliberately provoking the relationship between Jessica and Amelia. Jessica was just like
Jocelyn, who was like a thorn in his eyes. Sooner or later, he would need to pull her out! Making a fool out of
Jessica in Amelia's mind was the first step he was going to complete!
It was a pity that Patrick had underestimated Amelia's stubbornness.
Amelia did not think much of Jessica's capital when she opened the cafe. She was more worried whether Jessica
would overlook any hidden threats when she loaned the money back then. However, on second thought, since
Jessica's cafe was currently under her name, it did not matter even if the debtors were to find trouble with
Jessica. She would be the one standing in their way.
It would not matter if she could not stop them. He had Patrick with her, Patrick was powerful enough to solve
everything.
If Amelia could not deal with them, she could still deceive.
At the thought of this, Amelia calmed herself down.
In fact, she had no idea about Jessica's past but she was shocked by Patrick deliberately mystifying her past.
She pursed her lips and thought. "Don't think | don't know what he's trying to do. Isn't he trying to sow discord
betweenand Jesicca?"
But Patrick was too naive. How could the friendship between her and Jessica be shaken by just a few sentences
from him?
What a wishful thinking!
Mr. Patrick did not know that his plan had been exposed. Seeing that Amelia had an ugly expression on her face,
he thought his plan was succeeding. When he thought of it, he had the urge to push down on her and celebrate.
At this time, Amelia was somewhat disgusted at Patrick who was a scheming person. He immediately pushed
Patrick's hand away from her shoulder, she then straightened up and said, "I'll give you this room tonight. I'll go
somewhere else!"
"What do you mean? Stop right there!" Patrick's temper was like a pile of dry firewood, which could be easily
startled by Amelia.
He stood up from the bed, and his eyes were staring at the back of her head. "If you aren't sleeping in your own
room, where would you be sleeping then?"
"There are plenty of guest rooms in the house," said Amelia in a hushed tone.
In fact, she was not really angry with Patrick. The most important thing was Amelia found that her single bed was
too small for Patrick which was taller than 1.8 meters. If he completely stretched his hands and feet, only a few
corners would be left for her.
The reason why her bed was so small was not that The Ramsay Family did not provide her with a bigger one. It
all happened after her mother had committed suicide. After that incident, Amelia would always feel insecure. As
she was still a kid by that time, she would easily be scared and would always cower up at night when she was
sleeping alone. When George knew about this, he was heartbroken and thus, he bought a smaller bed for Amelia
to improve her sleeping quality.
Also, her height had not changed much since Amelia graduated from high school and she rarely went back to
The Ramsay Mansion to spend the night. Therefore, the bed was not changed.
