Chapter 368
After Jocelyn left, Amelia still remained in the sposition. Jocelyn's daughter... was her best friend, Jessica?
On the other side.
"Mom-" Patrick, who caught up with Eve, blocked her way, and asked hastily, "Mom, where are you going?"
Eve looked back at him with unfocused eyes and said hysterically, "I hurt your father. Did you see that?
I hurt him!"
"Mom, calm down!" Patrick grabbed Eve's shoulders and told her gently, "Dad is just injured in the hand. It won't
endanger his life. Don't blyourself too much."
Eve fell into Patrick's arms, staring at her bloodstained fingers attentively. It was Howard's blood. Howard shed
his blood for Jocelyn.
At the thought of that, Eve was ignited with hatred. "You are right. | don't have to blmyself. These are all
your father's fault! The fact that he's willing to do such a thing for that Jocelyn showed that he has lost himself.
Patrick, we must find a way to bring your father back on track!"
Patrick frowned. "Mom, what do you want to do?"
Eve said, gritting her teeth, "Of course, | want to kick that woman out of your dad's life! By fair means or foul!"
According to Eve's personality, she was absolutely possibly going to kill Jocelyn. Patrick thought about it for a few
seconds before he spoke, "Don't be impulsive. I'll handle it."
Because of Howard's , Granny Hopper stated that she had a headache. As a result, Amelia had to help her
upstairs to have a rest.
When she walked down the stairs, she found Patrick and Howard confronting each other. Amelia could not help
slowing down her speed for fear of disturbing them.
With coldness in his eyes, Patrick said, "I don't care how far you and that Jocelyn have gone. But you have to
stop meeting her from today on. Can you do that?"
Howard was confused at that. "Patrick, are you lecturing me?"
Patrick looked directly into Howard's eyes and analyzed his current situation. "Dad, from the moment you and
Mom got married, your families, businesses, and destinies were all tied together. That is also one of the reasons
why Grandma is so angry. | thought you are old enough to understand that."
Howard said slowly, "I don't want to argue with you. My conscience is clear."
Patrick said seriously, "Then stop contacting Jocelyn, just like what you have done to Sissi and me."

Howard's heart sank. "Does it feel good to get revenge againstnow? You blme for not supporting you
and Sissi, don't you?"
Patrick threw him a cold glance. "We both know that. Why do you have to say it out loud to hurt our feelings."
Patrick let out a bitter laugh. Over the years, Patrick had grown closer to Eve while distancing himself from
Howard for certain reasons.
After Sissi's scandal becpublic, Patrick still stuck to what he wanted. Therefore, Eve took it upon herself to
ask Howard's father for help.
When Patrick found out that, Eve had put all the blon Howard to avoid being disliked by her son. Howard
understood her feelings as a mother and didn't go out of his way to explain it to Patrick, only to find himself now
being treated like that.
"Patrick, | can't change your mind, but please don't trouble Jocelyn. She is the most innocent among this!"
"But what about Mom? Isn't she innocent?"
Standing at the stairs, Amelia listened quietly to their conversation, not knowing which side to choose.
If Howard had indeed cheated on Eve, even if it was not physical, Amelia could completely understand Patrick's
feelings. In fact, she even empathized with Patrick.
But considering Eve's nature and behavior, Amelia was unable to sympathize with her...
Downstairs-
"What | will do totally depends on your attitude toward Jocelyn. That's all | want to say. You can go back. Mom
needs you to take care of her."
"Patrick, you..." It was the first tHoward had directly realized that his son had outgrown his control.
Howard looked at Patrick, not knowing whether he should be pleased or upset. Then he left Land of Fragrance
frustratedly.
After Howard disappeared at the door, Patrick looked away from it and turned his sharp gaze precisely at Amelia,
who was upstairs. "Did you hear all of that?" Amelia was tingled by the coldness in his eyes. Although she knew
that he was not against her, Amelia was still startled. "Yeah." "Cdown."
"Oh." With that, she went downstairs and cup to him.
Seeing that Amelia was one meter away from him, Patrick curled his lips in a self-deprecating way, "Why are you
so far away? You are afraid that I'll eat you alive?"
Amelia coughed awkwardly. From his
conversation with Howard, it was not
difficult to tell that he was more {han

Patrick stared at her and said
unhappily, “Trust him? And give him

Bombarded, Amelia waved her hands and said, "You misunderstood. That's not what | meant."
Patrick looked away from her aggrieved face and said, "That's enough. It's about my mother. | don't expect you
to pay attention to it. | just hope you don't make things difficult for me."
Huh, so she was too eager to help and got cold-shouldered.
It was a lie to say that she was not angry, but now she had more important things to ask, so she didn't argue
with Patrick about that. "Then... how do you want to deal with it?"
Cruelty appeared in Patrick's eyes. "What do you think about killing her?"
Chill ran down Amelia's spine. Coming up with an excuse to leave Patrick alone, she hurried to call Jessica.
"Hey, Amelia?"
"Jessica, I've known you for so long, but I've never heard you mention your family. Are you available now? Can
you tellabout it?"
Jessica asked in confusion, "Amelia, why are you suddenly getting interested in my family?"
Amelia didn't give in. "Just tell me, please."
