Chapter 603
After a long period of silence, Patrick replied with an inaudible "Yes".
Upon receiving his approval, Amelia's smiled so brightly that her eyes were like the tip of a crescent moon.
The next second, there were calls from Patrick's side. The calling of his n'Patrick' could be clearly heard.
Upon hearing this, Amelia's face turned gloomy.
"Amelia..."
Noticing that Patrick wanted to say goodbye to her, Amelia whispered, "It seems that someone is calling you. Go
ahead."
"Okay," he said.
Then he hung up the phone.
Amelia's finger which was holding the mobile phone trembled slightly. "Patrick, this is the last tthat | would
confess to you..."
In a foreign city, after Patrick hung up the phone, he was not at ease. Instead, he was lost in his thought.
Was he thinking too much? He felt that Amelia was acting a little weird.
In his memory, she was not a sentimental person and she did not like to say those sweet words.
But on the phone, she asked him to sing and read poems. This really confused him.
"Patrick."
The sweet female voice sounded behind him. He collected his thoughts quickly and turned to look at the speaker.
When he saw that it was Sissi, Patrick's tensed lips lifted naturally. He changed his position to face her and
greeted her in a calm and composed manner. "Did you have a nightmare again?"
"No." Sissi was a few years older than him but when she stood in front of him, her eyes were full of shyness like a
little girl.
"Why are you in a panic?" Seeing that her hair was falling down from her cheek, Patrick reflexively raised his
hand and tried to put them behind her ear.
Right at this moment, the love poem Amelia read flashed through his mind. He clenched his fists and did not
touch Sissi.
Sissi did not notice his forbearance at this moment. She said with embarrassment, "When | woke up, | didn't see
you around. | thought you were discharged from the hospital. So | hurried to see if you are still here."
Patrick raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you afraid that | would run away?"
Sissi pretended to be resentful and said, "Yes, | am the one you hate the most. Even if you leftbehind, it will
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbe my own fault."
Patrick glared at her with a deep gaze and thought, "If only | could really abandon her..."
Seeing that he did not answer, Sissi changed the subject. "By the way, who were you talking to just now? Let me
guess, was it your wife?"
Patrick nodded his head slightly.
Sissi bit her lip guiltily. "Did | appear at the wrong time? If | had known earlier, | would have cover later. You
haven't contacted each other for so many days. There must be a lot of things to say to each other."
At the end of her words, she turned around and wanted to leave.
"It doesn't matter." Patrick's far-reaching and understanding voice stopped her in time. "We've finished talking."
Sissi turned around slowly, she did not ask what were they talking about but she simply gave an invitation and
said, "Shall we go out for sfresh air?"
Patrick looked down and asked, "Is your leg okay?"
Sissi replied briskly, "It was fully healed a long tago."
Patrick said, "Let's go then."
Shortly after they left the ward, the secretary rushed in.
Seeing that no one was in the room, the secretary was so anxious that she stamped her feet. "Where is Mr.
Hopper? Madam Ramsay is in trouble!"
It was not until the lunch break that Patrick reappeared in the corridor. His figure was like a god when he walked
against the light.
When he got close, she could see a hint of imperceptible tenderness on his cold face.
The secretary had only seen this tenderness twice. One was when he was with Amelia, and the other was with
Sissi, who looked very relaxed at Patrick's side.
While keeping her cool, the secretary straightened up from the bench. She met Patrick's calm eyes and called
out, "Mr. Hopper."
Seeing that the secretary looked serious, he thought that she was worried because he did not inform her before
going for a walk. So he took the initiative to say, "I just went to have a walk with Ms. Roberts." After saying that,
he took out the secretary's cell phone from his pocket and gave it back to her.
The secretary put away the phone and said, "Mr. Hopper, | have something urgent to report to you. Do you have
time?"
"Yes, | do." Honestly speaking, the thing Patrick had most right now was time.
"Well..." The secretary looked at Sissi calmly.
Sissi smiled understanding” as she looked at Patrick and whispered, "Patrick, I'm a little tired. I'll go back to my
room and have a rest. You can talk to your secretary." Patrick said worriedly, "I'll send you back."
"Sendback?" Sissi blinked her eyes. Their ward was only separated by a wall, the distance between these
two wards was nothing.
Patrick did not say anything more. He bent down and picked Sissi up.
As she gasped, he restrained his gaze and looked at her in rebuke. He said with his thin lips, "I know your foot
hurts, don't try to lie to me." Sissi said in a low voice, "How do you know?"
Patrick said, "When you walk, you kept looking down at your feet from tto time."
The truth was Patrick had really observed her carefully.
Sissi looked back at him with mixed feelings and said bitterly, "I really don't deserve your care."
However Patrick then said, "I'd like to."
After sending Sissi back to her ward, Patrick waved his hand and called the nurse.
When the nurse cwith a blushing
face, he ordered in a cold voice, “Fhe
patient's foot ishing Ask the
aReRding Hctor to help with it now."
The nurse answered with
stammering. "Okay." The content is

After all this, Patrick cast his eyes on the secretary and said, "Go ahead. What do you want to tell me?"
This was the first tthe secretary

At first, Patrick did not show any reaction.
The secretary reminded, "It is the family enterprise of Madam Ramsay."
Patrick's lazy expression froze. "What happened?"
Seeing that his mood had finally changed, the secretary let out a sigh of relief. At the stime, she quickly
explained what happened to the project Daniel was working on.
At the end of her words, Patrick said coldly, "That's what he deserves!"
"Although Daniel deserves to be
punished, Madam Ramsay is
innocent. Now all the debts apd

"That woman..." Patrick's eyes looked far-reaching. He recalled Amelia's phone call not long ago and all the
strange requests she made.
Thinking about it in this way, was her abnormality all related to the Apex Construction Corporation?
"When did this happen?" Patrick asked slowly.
