Chapter 565
"When will you be back?"
"In half a month, | want to stay here to inspect the working progress."
Half a month? That was so long!
A hint of depression flitted across Amelia's eyes. "By the way, | haven't asked you yet. Whose mobile phone are
you using now?"
Patrick Hopper said slowly, "A woman's."
"What! You..."
Amelia was about to lose her temper but she heard Patrick said slowly, "I borrowed the phone from the secretary.
My phone is out of battery."
Amelia was annoyed by Patrick's trick and said, "Can you stop panting while talking!"
Patrick was probably in a good mood and unexpectedly he made fun of Amelia, "I like the way you're jealous and
yet you can't hit me."
Amelia was speechless.
Patrick asked idly, "Amelia, where are you now?"
He changed the topic so quick that Amelia was caught off guard. "I...I'm at home!"
Her words made the entire sales department quiet.
The employees of the sales department seemed to have a good bonding with Amelia. When they heard that she
lied to Patrick that she was at home, they immediately helped her to create a quiet atmosphere. "So you're at
home?" Patrick's voice sounded very gentle, but Amelia's heart was filled with gusts of cold wind.
Could Huxton have already reported her whereabouts to Patrick?
That should not be the case. She was on the sboat with Huxton right now. It would not do him any good if
he sold her out.
When Amelia was thinking, Patrick's husky voice cagain, "Amelia, don't always think about ways to deceive
me. It's won't benefit you."
When his voice finished, before she could say anything, he had hung up the phone.
"Oh my..." Amelia stared at the beeping mobile phone. She felt like weeping but having no tears.
Why did she always underestimate Huxton's loyalty to Patrick? He was the kind of guy who would willing to
please his master even if he had to sacrifice one of his hands! At Timothy Village.
While returning the phone to the secretary, Patrick asked with concern, "Is the bath water ready?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"It should be almost done." After a pause, the secretary asked, "Mr. Hopper, | just heard your phone conversation
that you want to stay here to inspect the work progress?" Patrick replied faintly, "Yes."
The secretary did not understand. "I can see you want to return has soon as possible. Why do you still want
to stay here for so long?"
Patrick smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry. | just want to experience the feeling that Amelia is worried about
——
The secretary was dumbfounded. Mr. Hopper was really too cunning!
All the facilities conditions in the village were simple and crude, the villagers could only even take bath using the
public bathroom. Patrick surely could not agree with this. So the secretary could only beg the villager to give her
a big wooden barrel that was said to be passed down from their ancestors. She asked a few male villagers to
carry it into Patrick's room. Then she poured a few buckets of water in it until it was full, closed the door, and let
Patrick enjoyed his bath.
When the secretary returned to her room, she did not even had tto drink water and she was immediately
surrounded by several female teachers. "Ms. secretary, we just peeped through the door gap and found that
your boyfriend is so handsome!"
"Yes. The eyes, the nose, the mouth... F*ck, it's exactly the genuine version of the handsCEO!"
The secretary grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the table. Then she said dryly, "I told you before, he is just
my boss."
All of the women were talking, "Even he is the boss, he must have taken a fancy to you since he has done so
much for you."
The secretary was furious. "What's wrong with you guys? Mr. Hopper has married, okay?"
Her words made the women look at each other with embarrassment.
As usual, women would always fantasize about handsmen. Even Patrick was married, it would not stop them
from daydreaming. They even hoped that Patrick had an affair with the secretary. This meant that these beautiful
young women would have a chance as well.
Then...
The unlocked door was pushed open from the outside and a soft female voice sounded, "What are you girls
talking about?"
The silent atmosphere was broken, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone spontaneously greeted the
woman who cin, "Ah! Sissi, you're back?"
"Yes." The woman with a waist-length big wavy curl walked into the room. A few strands of her hair stuck to her
cheeks which made her oval face looked more charming. Her eyes were beautiful dark brown which made people
could not help but wanted to gaze at them. Besides that, her two lips made people wanted to kiss them just by
looking at them.
It was such a crfor such a pretty woman to be a teacher.
Even the secretary who stood by Patrick's side and were used to see lots of beauties could not help phrasing in
her heart.
According to the file, this woman was not young anymore but so what? She just aged like wine fine.
The secretary touched her somewhat dry face and asked the woman who approached them, "Sissi, what kind of
skin care products do you use? Can you share the brand with me?"
Sissi smiled lightly and her brown
eyes curved into a bealitiful regent

Sissi smiled and asked, "By the way, when I return, | saw snew faces in the village. Were they sent by the
government to rescue us?"
"Yes, Mr. Hopper is here too!" The secretary said with a proud tone.
After hearing the secretary's words, Sissi's face which had been smiling suddenly becdifferent.
She seemed excited but she restrained herself very well. She looked happy and wanted to cry at the stime.
Her eyes were full of surprise...
The secretary got goosebumps all over and asked, "Sissi, are... are you okay?"
Sissi cback to her senses and asked somewhat unnaturally, "Is this ‘Mr. Hopper" Patrick Hopper?"
The secretary nodded without hesitation. "Yes, it's him."
