Chapter 241
"Mrs. Hopper... "Seeing that Amelia would not look at him, Patrick could only go to her bedside and call her
gently.
The scene of her fainting was so scary that he didn't want to repeat it again.
"I'm very tired. You letsleep for a while." Amelia told him perfunctorily.
"Don't go to sleep yet, givestto clarify the truth." There was obviously a chair nearby, but Patrick
crouched right down to the floor so he could be flush with her in the bed.
Amelia saw Patrick's humble gesture and she shifted her indifference slightly, "Go ahead."
"Look at this," Patrick handed Amelia the examination report in his hand, "It's Cherry's physical. She's still a
virgin and | didn't even touch her last night."
Amelia froze and didn't take the report. She just stared at the anxious-looking man in front of her nervously.
"What's wrong? So you still don't believe me?" Patrick mistakenly thought that Amelia wouldn't even read the
examination report, and he stubbornly says, "If you don't read it, I'll read it to you word for word!" Amelia raised
her hand to slap away the examination report, blinked her teary eyes, and cried and laughed at Patrick, "You silly
man!"
Patrick didn't get angry at being scolded like that, just naturally opened his arms around Amelia who cto
him, kissed her forehead and said softly, "You are a silly woman as well."
Amelia's frustration, anger, fear and grievance these days were now released in Patrick's arms as she gripped his
suit jacket tightly in her delicate hands and wailed.
Patrick spoke with both pity and confusion, "I've proven my innocence, why are you still crying so much? Okay,
don't cry, I'm afraid you'll break your body with crying so hard." There was a twhen Patrick felt that Amelia
was an impenetrable wall and that no matter how much pressure he put on it or how much he destroyed it, she
would always stand.
But as the walls crumbled, revealing her fragile form, and instead of being accomplished at all, Patrick felt a
vague sense of panic.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAmelia childishly rubbed her tears in Patrick's arms and cried, partly because he had proved his innocence to her
in a tangible way, but more because George's current situation made her feel so helpless for the first time.
After a moment's pause, she lifted her head up to him and said, "My dad's in the hospital."
"What's going on?" Patrick frowned.
Amelia told him the whole story.
Patrick began to realize the seriousness of the problem and finally understood why she was so vulnerable today,
and he felt guilty that instead of being there for her when she was at her worst, he'd not only failed to be there
for her, but he'd misbehaved by drinking at the Royal Joy Club!
Patrick felt sorry for himself and said, "Take a rest and I'll go and get you sporridge.
Amelia was over-starved, but she didn't feel hungry, and she desperately wanted to get back to George at this
point, "Patrick, | want to..."
"I know what you want to do." Patrick interrupted her, gazing sadly into her tired eyes, "But you have to think
about your own health too. If you get sick, you'll have even less energy to take care of your dad, so listen to me,
okay?"
With that, he leaned in close to her face and landed a warm kiss on her tightly pursed lips, tasting her previously
shed tears, which was astringent with bitterness, but he was syrupy.
Amelia ate her lunch, drank another glass of milk under Patrick's care, and eased back into bed to sleep.
Until she was asleep and Patrick stopped staring at her, he took the tto go outside and answer a phone call.
Patrick's handsface suddenly turned cold as he looked at the caller displayed on the screen, it was Charles,
and even if Charles didn't call him, he was going to teach Charles a lesson sooner or later. Patrick pressed the
answer button with indifference, and Charles said teasingly, "Hey man, are you up yet? Did you sleep well last
night?"
Afraid of waking Amelia, Patrick swallowed his anger and headed down the cleared hallway saying, "Did you set
Charles confessed, "Yeah, you looked like you were in pain with lust last night, so | arranged for a woman to
nourish you. She was still a virgin and you took advantage of her."
By the sound of it, Charles was pretty proud of what he'd done last night, but Patrick's anger had flared and he
emphasized Charles' nby saying, "Charles Sullivan, you setup with a woman once at the reunion and
again last night, what the hell do you want?"
Sensing a change in Patrick's mood over the phone, Charles pretended to relax and reassured him, "I didn't want
to do anything, just... for fun. Why are you so angry? | thought you said you didn't have feelings for Amelia?"
Avoiding an answer to Charles' confusion, Patrick grumpily said, "I'm warning you, if it happens again, we're out
of being friends!"
Straight after hanging up the phone,
Patrick leaned against the hallway

As twilight fell, a man was seen in the ward at the other hospital where George was staying.

was so weak would surely die from lack of oxygen to the brain in less than two minutes.
