Chapter 441
Seeing Florence's tear-stained face, Amelia was amused. She pointed to the bathroom. "Let's go. Let's go
washing your face!" "Amelia! I'm not a kid... | don't need you to helpthere."
That being said, Florence followed Amelia willingly.
Florence liked her so much. Amelia was both gentle, generous, and didn't care about her recklessness and
rudeness at all. In comparison, Florence seemed to have a lot of room for improvement.
Staring at Amelia's back, Florence made up her mind that no matter what would happen, she would always be at
Amelia's side!
When Amelia reappeared with Florence, who had her make-up in check again, everyone looked at them with a
knowing smile in their eyes.
They still remember Florence's throwing a tantrum at Amelia in the hospital. Everyone had been worried about
when they would forgive each other again. And now it seemed that they had becfriends again in private.
Since Howard and Eve were not home, Patrick was sitting at the center of the living room and making tea. He
asked her sister suddenly, "Florence, where are Dad and Mom?"
Florence gave a short pause before saying, "Patrick, you may not know that Dad has built a Buddha hall in the
backyard two months ago to pray for Mom.
But... Somehow Mom was furious at it. And Dad was angry, too. So he stays in the hall every day to copy
scriptures. | guess he is still there now." Patrick knitted his brows, "Dad has converted to Buddhism?"
Owen couldn't help chuckling. "What nonsense are you thinking about? Dad built the Buddha hall to find peace
and dispel the resentment he feels."
Finding no surprise on Owen's face, Patrick narrowed his eyes. "Owen, you knew that already?"
Owen picked up a cup of tea and slowly said, "Yes, | knew it a long tago. | called you one day. Do you
remember? But the moment | brought Dad up, you askto stop talking. So | could only leave it alone for the
tbeing."
Patrick seemed to remember such a thing, so he didn't argue with him anymore.
Amelia looked around the huge living room, the second floor, and the third floor, but she couldn't
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfound Eve. So she asked Florence, "Where is Eve?"
A touch of worry flickered in Florence's eyes. "Mom woke up this morning saying that she had a headache. Then
the driver took her to the hospital."
"Isn't there a family doctor?"
"Amelia, the doctor also needs to go hfor Christmas..."
While they were talking, they found Ashley being chased by Rick. Amelia and Florence immediately fixed their
gazes on her in case she fell from the chasing.
While Ashley was running, she kept looking back and grimacing at Rick. Amelia reminded her with concerns,
"Ashley, don't run that fast! Be careful!"
"I'll be fine!" The whole living room was full of her bright laughter, which dissipated a little the depressing air of
the house.
When Ashley ran to the door, the carved gate opened slowly. Ashley was so occupied playing with Rick that she
accidentally bumped into someone coming in from the light outside.
Eve had a headache. Coupled with the sudden bumping, she was a little annoyed. But when she found that the
one who had run into her was her granddaughter, she replaced her irritated expression with a smiling one and
reached out to touch her
face.
But Ashley was terrified by Eve's infuriated look. She had never seen adults with such fierce eyes as if killing her
was the only way to vent their anger.
When she caught a glimpse of Eve's approaching hand, she was reminded of the witches' hands mentioned in
the storybooks. Not only did Ashley dodge Eve's hand, but she also turned around and ran to Amelia, who was
the closest to her. The girl held Amelia's leg and cried out, "Auntie..."
Seeing the girl seeking protection from her, Amelia felt both sorry and puzzled. She pulled Ashley a little away
and squatted down to take a look at her. "Ashley, don't cry. Did you hurt? Lethelp you..." But Ashley sobbed.
"Grandma's eyes are so scary..."
"Huh?" Amelia couldn't help looking up at Eve, only to find she looked as usual.
What Amelia didn't know was that Amelia had always seen Eve as her real self. Eve had never hidden her vicious
look in front of Amelia...
But when facing others, especially her lovable grandchildren, Eve was always kind and amiable. That was why
Ashley was so frightened when she saw Eve's true color.
Eve was furious at the truth that her beloved granddaughter had run away from her to the disliked Amelia. She
vented her anger at the stupid dog on the ground who had lost its target and was looking around blankly!
"You stinking dog! Who allowed you to get into my house and scare my darling granddaughter?"
Eve rushed over, lifted her foot, and gave a good kick at Rick's belly, sending him out!
"Rick!" Amelia, Andrew, Ashley, and Florence cried out simultaneously.
Rick flew backward and fell to Amelia's feet. It tried to stand up with its trembling forelegs but failed again and
again.
In the end, Rick could only look helplessly at Amelia with its dark, watery eyes and let out a sad cry.

Nestling in Amelia's arms, Rick curled up its limbs in pain and kept sobbing. It was obvious that its stomach was
in pain.
