NovelEnglishChapter 569
"It's fine. Thank you for taking care ofon my way here. You've had it tougher than I did!" Amelia said
sincerely.
Without Huxton's encouragement, she might not have crossed the bridge.
Huxton then answered, "Let's go. Well ask the villagers where Mr. Hopper is staying."
Coincidentally, when they were in a hurry to ask their way around, somebody whom Amelia was familiar with
appeared from around the corner.
Her eyes lit up. Amelia raised her hands to her lips like trumpets and shouted, "Ms. Secretary!"
When Patrick's secretary saw Amelia standing not far away, she was stunned on her spot.
She picked up a hand and pinched her thigh to check if she was in a dream. It hurt so much! So she was not
dreaming!
"Oh no! Mrs. Hopper is here! Mr. Hopper is in big trouble!" The secretary thought in reflex.
"Ms. Secretary... Where are you going?"
Amelia wanted to approach her and say hello, but the secretary had on a strange expression and
looked as if she was about to run away.
Frowning, Amelia quickened her pace and chased after her. She stood in front of the secretary, blocking her way,
and said, "Ms. Secretary, it's me. Don't tellyou've forgottenafter the holidays?" "Oh, no..." The secretary
shook her head repeatedly and said with reverence, "Even if | had forgotten anybody, | wouldn't have forgotten
Valco ElRoe MIE”
"Should I call her 'Madam Ramsay" or 'Mrs. Hopper'?" The secretary was caught in a dilemma.
"You should callMadam Ramsay, just as before. Or you can callby my nif you want," Amelia offered
graciously.
Even if the secretary was the bravest person in the world, she would not dare to call Amelia by her name. She
gave a hollow laugh and asked, "Madam Ramsay, what are you doing here?" Amelia was confused and said, "Of
course I'm here for Patrick. Do you not welcme?"
"Sure | welcyou here!" The secretary answered hastily.
Amelia smiled, "That's good. Where's Patrick? Please taketo him."
The secretary was having a headache. Since last night, Mr. Hopper had been taking care of Sissi, who
was having a fever.

The most crucial thing was that to prevent the rest from disturbing Sissi in the middle of the night, Mr. Hopper
had carried Sissi back to his place.
In other words, they had spent an entire night alone with each other!
Although Mr. Hopper was chivalrous to other women on top of Amelia, it would be hard to explain why he took a
woman who was neither his wife nor kinship back to his room and took care of her personally. As Patrick's
secretary, she had an obligation to cover for her boss and fog up the situation. She could rack her brains and fool
anybody, but it was difficult to lie to Amelia precisely because she was Patrick's legitimate wife.
Stuck in a tough spot, the secretary changed the topic and asked gently, "Madam Ramsay... Did you inform Mr.
Hopper in advance that you're coming here?" Amelia shook her head and said, "I haven't told him yet."
"Then you can call him now and ask him to cand pick you up," The secretary finally decided on finding a
way to send a message to Patrick.
But Amelia did not play by the book. "No, | want to give him a surprise. You can just takedirectly to him."
Out of options, the secretary said helplessly, "Well then, cwith me."
"Huxton, keep up with us." Perhaps it was because she was about to see Patrick in a short while, her high spirits
were reflected in the higher pitch of her voice.
On the way, the secretary deliberately strode very slowly to prolong the journey and introduced them to the local
customs and practices as a tactic. Amelia did not know what was up with the secretary, so Amelia only listened
to her cluelessly.
On the other hand, on Patrick's side.
In the room, Patrick's private doctor said, "Mr. Patrick, Ms. Sissi's fever has subsided. She'll recover soon as long
as she continues to rest."
Patrick's sharp eyes softened and replied, "Got it."
"Then I'll go down first."
After the doctor left, Sissi who was lying on the bed, slowly opened her eyes and asked faintly, "Don't you hate
Patrick interjected impassively, "Who should | torture if you're dead?"
Sissi's red lips slightly curled. "I know, you don't wish
Patrick glanced at her in contempt and indifference. "Aren't you overconfident?"
Sissi got up from the bed and her brown eyes shifted to his face. "People say 'you hate because you love'. The
more you hate me, the deeper your love for me..."
"Shut up!" Patrick snapped.
Sissi stared at him and asked, "Do you dare to say that you don't have feelings forat all?"
Patrick snickered. "Why would | have feelings for you? Don't you know that I'm married?"
Although she had mentally prepared herself, Sissi was still feeling hurt.
Ignoring the pained look on her face, Patrick asked her to leave without hesitation, "Since your fever is gone, get
out of my room!"
Sissi bit her paled lips, pushed herself weakly up from the bed, put on her shoes, and made her way to the door
step-by-step.
Seeing that she was dehydrated and
feeble as she swayed for each step
she took, Patrick got up from pce

The long dress fluttered into a beautiful arc in the air, giving an impression that Sissi would slip through his
fingers at anytime.
Sissi was pressed against the wall by him accidentally and rather harshly. Even though her back was hurt, she
laughed and said, "Are you getting angry because of me?"
Patrick exclaimed in exasperation, "What's there to mad at?"
Sissi worshipped his attractive facial

Patrick's temple throbbed. "Sissi Roberts, do you know that your self-righteousness disgusts me?"
Sissi replied in a delicate voice, "I just know you well... that's all."
Patrick gritted his teeth and said, "And why do you say so?"
Sissi recounted and said, "Just because I... used to be your high school teacher, your college lover, your..."
"Enough!" Patrick raised his voice and stopped her from continuing. He announced ominously, "You're
no longer!"
Sissi's heart ached. She looked away gloomily and said, "Yes, I'm no longer. You're married and have a young and
beautiful wife now."
Patrick retorted harshly, "Don't say
