NovelEnglishChapter 395
Patrick lowered his head, hiding the surging emotions in his eyes. He had emailed all the companies in Northville,
and there was still someone daring enough to hire Amelia. This was openly against Patrick.
He glanced at the non the cheque- The Scarlet Clothing Company...
A hint of coldness flashed through Patrick's eyes, but he asked, "I'll take the money, but I'm a little curious. What
job is Scarlet offering you that earns you two hundred thousand in one go?" Amelia scratched her head. Since
there was nothing wrong with it, Amelia told him the truth, "They askto wear the clothes they design and
take pictures for the covers of their fashion magazines." "Do you think you, who is out of fashion, can handle
their clothes?" Patrick looked askance at her.
Amelia puffed her cheek up and kept telling herself not to be annoyed, "It doesn't matter if I'm out of fashion.
The point is that Scarlet thinks I'm suitable. Oh, by the way, how is Eve? Is she awake?" At the mention of Eve,
Patrick's eyes turned cold, as if the n"Eve" reminded him... what kind of
woman Amelia was.
"Amelia, why did you accept Dad's one billion?" He just couldn't let go of this.
Amelia looked tense. "What do | have to say to make you believe me? My support for Howard has nothing to do
with my acceptance of the one billion. If possible, | won't use any money from his will." "Dad is still alive. You
can't spend it even if you want," Patrick said in a weird tone.
He could never stand the fact that Howard had betrayed Eve and Amelia had secretly
accepted Howard's money. Did this woman have any principles?
Amelia had a feeling that if she didn't tell the truth, she would have been aggrieved to death. "Tell you the truth.
It's not just me. Howard has set wills for you, Owen, and Florance. He toldpersonally that Eve gets the
biggest share. He just hasn't handed them to you yet. If you don't believe me, you could ask him yourself."
Patrick's handsface was tight. Was the truth as what Amelia had said?
Realizing that he was silent, Amelia took out her mobile phone impulsively. "I'll call him now and ask if he said
what | just told you that day!"
Patrick reached out and stopped her hands. "You don't have to do that. | believe you."
Amelia looked up at him with suspicion, "Do you really believe me?"
Patrick hesitated for a moment before he said, "Yes."

"Me? Apologize?" Patrick raised his eyebrows.
Amelia said seriously, "Yes, your words were so harsh at that tthat they hurt my feelings. Now that we've
straightened it out, it's not too much forto ask you for an apology, is it?" Patrick narrowed his sharp eyes as
if to seek an answer from her, "Then who else should apologize toabout my mother?"
Amelia froze. He still hasn't forgiven her. He blamed her for informing Howard for Jessica's sake.
If Howard hadn't run away from home, Eve probably wouldn't have taken sleeping pills...
But if Amelia could go back, she would still make the sdecision she had.
Patrick was right. Neither Amelia nor Patrick was wrong. They just had opposite reasons.
In the hospital.
"Did you go into the wrong room? Shouldn't you have left Northville now?" When Eve woke up and saw Howard
staying by her bed, she was stunned for a while before spitting out those pointed words. Howard was looking
down at her. Just as Eve thought that he was going to apologize to her for what he had done, Howard asked
politely and distantly, "Do you want swater?"
Eve hated Howard's guts. If she hadn't been too weak to move, she would have strangled Howard by his neck
and dragged him to hell!
They had loved each other for decades, but now there was no affection between them. Eve closed her eyes in
despair and asked in a hoarse voice, "Since you have left, why did you cback..." She had tried to get rid of
this hopeless marriage. She was so proud all her life that if he divorced her, it would be more painful than killing
her. When Howard had turned his back to her, she decided that instead of being humiliated, she would rather die
to make her will clear so that d*mned Howard and Jocelyn were to be blamed by everyone!
However... Death didn't take her life.
Tears rolled down from the corners of Eve's eyes as she was overwhelmed by both joy and sadness...
Seeing her crying, Howard pondered for a while and decided to make it clear, "I didn't cback for you, but the
kids and Jocelyn. From today to my death, unless you agree to letgo, | will stay with you, take care of you..."
"Stay with me, take care of me..." Eve only found the heart-warming words extremely hypocritical when Howard
spat them out. She gritted her teeth and said word by word, "Howard, listen carefully! No matter how you hate
By the tPatrick and Amelia arrived at the hospital to visit Eve, she had fallen asleep after being sedated by
the doctor.
Patrick went blank for a while at the mention of the sedative. Then, with a sullen face, he cto Howard and
asked what he had said to Eve!
"| just said something that should be said sooner or later," Howard replied calmly.
Patrick warned him furiously, "The doctor says Mom is prone to mania. Don't anger her!"
Howard said with mixed feelings, "In fact, | noticed your mother's problem earlier than the doctor.
Otherwise, why would | turn to a psychiatrist?"
Patrick went still.

Amelia said gratefully, "Mr. Cosmo, you are so kind."
