Chapter 673
Patrick straightened up and picked up a club without thinking much about it. He first gripped it to feel the way it
squeezed beneath his touch, then swung it back and forth in small arcs. He made up his mind and said, "This is
it.
"Okay, Mr. Patrick."
Just as the staff were about to retreat with the remaining two bags of equipment, Kaiden stopped them. "Wait!"
The staff turned around in a haste, then asked, "Mr. Wright, what can we do for you?"
"Mrs. Hopper hasn't picked a club for the competition yet." Kaiden's eyes were fixed on the staff, but his words
were directed at Patrick.
"She doesn't need to pick any," answered Patrick.
"Oh? Mr. Patrick, are you afraid Mrs. Hopper will hinder you, so you don't want to team up with her?" The
intention to sow discord between the couple was evident in his words.
Patrick threw a sidelong glance at Kaiden and said while giving off an air of indifference, "Didn't you say | can win
even with a lady in my arms? If it was that way before, then it's the snow." Kaiden was caught by surprise.
"His... His wife was standing right beside him, but he still dared to bring up his love affair! He even took pride in
it! Shon him!" thought Kaiden.
After the shock, Kaiden was eagerly expectant and thought, "Amelia should be upset now, right?"
But when he turned to look at Amelia, she was not stirred at all, let alone bursting out in anger.
Amelia showed great tolerance, with her heart and mind remaining clear despite their heated argument. Kaiden
was even unconsciously influenced by this peacefulness when he looked at her serene smile. Kaiden shook his
head. He was here to find trouble, not to observe Amelia!
No matter how wonderful Amelia was, she could never be compared to the flawless, perfect Sissi!
Seeing that Kaiden was purposefully making things difficult for Patrick, Amelia gently placed her right hand on
Patrick's arm and said, "Mr. Hopper, how about this? You can holdwhile we share the sclub. It's different
but still considered as a team nonetheless, am | right?"
"No way!" Kaiden strongly protested, "If the both of you hug together, only one person will be showing their
skills!"
Amelia batted her eyelashes innocently at him and said, "Aren't we at a disadvantage if my husband and | work
together as compared to you and Mr. Leo, who get to play individually?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Are you making sense? It sure sounds good when you say you two are working together, but isn't it only your
man who's playing at the end of the day?"
Kaiden wanted Amelia to drag down Patrick and lower their scoring rate from that round!
But if Patrick held Amelia in his arms, then he must be the one swinging the club. Amelia would just have to
stand there and look pretty as there was no need for her to do anything at all.
In the face of Kaiden's indignance, Amelia put on a serious look and suggested, "If Mr. Kaiden finds it unfair, you
can work together with Mr. Leo too. | think your figure will fit just right for Mr. Leo to hold you in his arms."
Pft!
The row of young men behind Kaiden all laughed. Obviously, they had understood the ridicule in her words.
Kaiden's face dimmed as dark as the bottom of a pan from the mockery that sounded as if he was being called
submissive.
He hated being accused as a submissive. And although he did not like physical contact with women, it did not
mean that he was gay!
"Mrs. Hopper." This time, Patrick's soft, guttural voice with a hint of a faint smile rang in the air. "Your suggestion
is good. Leo, what do you think?"
Under the fierce glare from Kaiden, Leo, who driven into a tight spot, brushed the tip of his nose in hesitation and
said, "I'm fine with anything. Up to you guys."
"So, the four of us will vote. Who else supportsand Patrick sharing clubs other than me?"
Then, without Amelia's signalling, Patrick took the cue and said, "Me."
Kaiden glared at Leo when he was about to speak his concurrence, which caused Leo's mouth to gape open in
embarrassment.
As a result, Kaiden made a selfish conclusion and said, "Ha, did everyone see that? Leo and | didn't say a word.
So, I'm sorry, Mrs. Hopper, but your suggestion can't be taken into effect!"
In the middle of Kaiden basking himself in pride, Amelia turned her glistening eyes toward Leo and asked, "Mr.
Leo, did you not say anything just now because you object to my suggestion?" Although Amelia was meek in
appearance, the man standing behind her was not at all.
Leo was innocuously sandwiched between siding with Patrick or Kaiden and was stressed out from being in this
dilemma. "Mrs. Hopper, I'm not against your suggestion. | just want to... forfeit! Can I?" "Of course!" Amelia's lips
curved into a kind, graceful smile. "That also means that there are two votes who agree, one against, and the
other forfeited. It seems that my suggestion is effective now."
Kaiden was frantic. "You..."
Noticing that Kaiden seemed to want to go back on his words, Amelia narrowed her eyes and asked in a cheeky
tone, "Why, Mr. Wright? Can't you take on the challenge?" Kaiden was immediately rendered speechless.
On the golf course.
Patrick swept a glance at Amelia as she squatted on the ground to tie her shoelaces, and a trace of adoration
flashed across his deep, dark eyes.
He knew that everything that Amelia had said and done today was to uphold his dignity.
Actually, even if Amelia was not here, he still had many ways to deal with Kaiden.
But for sreason, whenever Amelia spoke for him, he chose to be silent. Perhaps he had wanted to wait and
see how Amelia would help him.
In the end, he was not only satisfied with the result, but he was quite pleasantly shocked too.
Although a dispute did not break out between her and Kaiden, she still pushed Kaiden to a loss for words. She
sure had her ways of doing things.
At the stime, Amelia clapped her hands and stood up from the ground when she finished doing her
shoelaces.

Knowing Patrick's character, it was difficult for him to praise Amelia directly.

"And so what?" Patrick smiled sheepishly, grabbed Amelia's arm, and pulled her into his arms, especially smooth
with his action.
In the broad daylight and under the watchful eyes of the public, Amelia fell head-first into Patrick's chest, looking
clumsy and confounded.
After steadying her footfall, she immediately shot him a glare and asked unhappily, "What are you doing?"
