Chapter 1027
Alice was chocked.
A moment later, she suppressed the disappointment in her heart and put in the big picture, "Yes, you're right.
The Eastern District project is of great importance. You will definitely have a lot of work and need to socialize a
lot at that time. Alas... | was too anxious and did not take into account your current situation."
Amelia looked at her and said, "Alice, don't be sad. We will have a baby."
"Sure!" What could Alice say? She could not let Amelia give up the Eastern District project, which she had worked
so hard to get for Apex Construction Corporation, and concentrate on having a baby with Patrick, could she?
Amidst the silence, Amelia suddenly noticed that Patrick had smoked for far too long.
"I knew that his words could not be trusted!" Amelia muttered to himself.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
There was a burst of opening at the door, followed by a familiar magnetic voice with a slight sound of a clearing
throat. "I'm back. Did | disturb your
conversation?"
Amelia turned back to look at him and said as usual, "No."
Alice stood where Amelia could not see her and shook her head helplessly at Patrick. She was trying to help him
solve Amelia's problem. However, every single answer of Amelia was flawless. She could not find a way to
intervene.
Perhaps, it was because Patrick's concern that caused him to panic. Amelia was obviously in good condition. It
was not like what he said that she was preoccupied with a lot of troubles in her mind.
Patrick saw Alice shaking her head gently at him. He knew that she could not get anything out of Alice.
Forget it. He would better continue to be patient with Amelia.

Seeing that the night had fallen outside the window, Amelia looked at George, who was sleeping soundly, and
finally decided, "Aunt Alice, it's late. We'll go back first."
"Alright." Alice stood up from the chair and sent off Amelia to Patrick, who was loitering at the door. She said
softly, "When your father wakes up, | will tell him that you have been here. It's the peak hours after work. Drive
safe."
Amelia and Patrick both nodded in agreement.
It was different from the twhen they came. The elevator that was going down was full of passengers at this
time.
Patrick frowned his eyebrows gloomily.
Amelia was satisfied. She wrapped her belly with her hands slightly, so she would not be pushed to the wall by
the people around her.
Patrick's heart skipped a beat when he saw Amelia was being squeezed into the crowd. He stared at the man
who almost squeezed her. Then, he reached out his long arm and pulled her into his embrace.
Patrick lowered his head and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "You had been pushed several
times. Haven't you counted?" Patrick wondered why did she not cto him?
At such a close distance, Amelia could feel that the surrounding air suddenly becturbulent.
She would rather squeeze in the crowd than be held by Patrick.
Because of the flash of possessiveness in his eyes, her heart skipped a beat.
Seeing that she was still being distracted in his arms, Patrick said seriously, "Didn't you hear what | said?"
Noticing that his arm was suddenly tightened around her waist, Amelia frowned and replied, "Aren't you
squeezingnow as well?"
"How can it be the same? | am your man!"
When Patrick said this, his last words were a little pitchy, which suddenly made a nurse standing beside Amelia
blush.
Glancing at the reaction of the nurse, Amelia could not help but look speechless.
Could it be that the nurse was daydreaming about what Patrick said was saying to her?
And when she found that the nurse was so guilty that she avoided her eyes, Amelia knew that she was right!
As for a man like Patrick, who was an living example of all that glitters is not gold, could only cheat the young
girls.
But when Amelia turned her eyes and found that a woman was also staring at Patrick, she was desperate.
Tpassed by minute by minute in the crowd while Patrick was staring at Amelia.
Suddenly, the 'ding' sound of the elevator was sounded. As the elevator reached, the crowd poured out from the
sspace.
Patrick and Amelia finally got rid of the situation of being stuck in the packed situation. They were more or less
feeling more relieved.
Amelia moved her stiff shoulders held by Patrick and reminded him softly, "They're all gone. Can you letgo
now?"
Patrick agreed, but he did not make his move until the last person left the elevator.
He lowered his head and kissed Amelia's forehead. Then only he let go of her shoulders and waist, satisfied with
what he had done.
As soon as Amelia got the freedom, she immediately raised her hand and pounded his arm. If it were not for the
fact that they were outside, she would have hit another place.
It had to be said that her actions was just appropriate.
If she hit Patrick in his face when they were outside, what she would face would be terrible consequences.
But because she hit Patrick's arm. And Patrick felt that was more like flirting. So he just smiled, held her hand
which pounded him a second ago, and walked out of the elevator s
Even though Amelia was not willing to be held, Patrick still held her hand firmly.
Every tshe tried to pull her hand away, he would retaliate and pinch her, so much so that she did not
dare to move.
Amelia finally realized what was going on until she was brought to Patrick's car, and he opened the car door and
put her in. "Patrick, you promised that you won't touch me!"
After saying this, Amelia noticed that there was a hint of smile on Patrick's face. She quickly added, "Don't play
on words with me. It doesn't matter if you do it casually of seriously Once you touch me, youve violated the
agreement!" s
Patrick, who was sitting in the driver's seat, turned his handsface and looked
at her. He said innocently, "I didn't touch you."
"You didn't touch me?" Amelia gritted her teeth and said, "How dared you say that you didn't touch me!"
Patrick said slowly, "It seems that
the 'touch we understand has sslight differences. The 'won't touch’ | promised to was that would got reach
the final phase of our intimacy with you. How do you understand it? s
Amelia grabbed her hair and said, "I..."
Patrick interrupted her timely, "Okay, | know. The 'won't touch' means that I can't
even touch a finger or a corner of your clothes, right?"
Amelia took the hand from her hair and said, "Yes!"
Patrick looked at her and said in a sad tone, "Don't you think you are
unreasonable and unkind?"
