The last thing on earth that she would do right this moment was to kiss him. Amelia thought that he should be
feeling fortunate that she had not given him a punch at his face. She looked away without responding him.
Patrick was getting impatient. He held her cheek and forced her into looking at his eyes.
Her eyelashes could be seen trembling. It was not known whether she was being nervous or angry, although any
of the two possibilities could only render Patrick infuriated.
He began to rub his thumb against her face flirtatiously and said, "I don't think it's an overbearing demand for
lose..."
Before she could finish her words, Patrick's kiss fell on her aggressively...
Amelia was being restrained within the space between the door and him. She could only respond to his embrace
passively.
Meanwhile, Patrick lowered his eyes just to see
Amelia frowning. Her eyes were closing shut as if he was the bully.
In the shade of anger, his kiss turned more violent as if he was going to shred her and eat her up.
She could hardly keep herself on balance under his aggressiveness.
Seeing this, he scooped her up and carried her in direction of his study desk.
Patrick's intention could not be any more obvious. However, it was not the appropriate timing!
As soon as he ended his aggressive kiss, Patrick made her into sitting at the edge of the desk. Amelia took the
chance to grab his hand which was about to reach her collar. She reminded with her voice strained, "I have to go
and prepare for dinner!"
"Let Huxton handle it when he comes back!" Patrick said impatiently.
Her tiny hand gripped on her collar tightly. Amelia shook her head and said, "No way! It was my idea to prepare
dinner for dad. Moreover, we won't know when only will Huxton be back."

Patrick bent over and stared at her dazzlingly beautiful eyes. He voiced out his discontentment, "You are getting
more rebellious these days! It's not that | can't let go of you now, but you have to givea reason of why are
you acting strange today."
Amelia simply made up an excuse, "There's a lot to be taken care in the company. | find myself struggling to
cope with the huge workload."
A gleam of disbelief flashed across his face as he said, "This reason may be justifiable for men. However, it
doesn't make sense tosince you're a woman."
Amelia's heart sank, "Why didn't it make sense? Won't women be feeling tired too?"
She wondered if he had taken her as superwoman.
But this could not be the case. Patrick would not have thought highly of her. She felt that it was more likely that
he had thought that she could stubbornly survive anywhere just like a cockroach.
As a result, the explanation offered by Patrick was completely different from her expectation. He said, "This is
because women are always submissive one!"
"F*ck you!"
Amelia cursed secretly. She dodged his upcoming kiss and hurriedly said, "I said no! After all, we are having dad
as our guest today. You have no idea how enthused he was when | went grocery shopping with him. Everything
was new to him."
"That's because he's been staying in the worship hall all the trecently! It's not surprising that he finds
everything new and curious now."
Patrick could not help feeling regretted that he did not manage to shut her mouth with his kiss.
Amelia did not seem to agree on what he said, "But why did | feel he was delighted because he got the chance to
be with us?"
Patrick replied annoyingly, "Why would you want to study him? After all he is my father, not yours!"
As soon as he finished his words, all he could see was that Amelia's face saddened.
Patrick could not help cursing upon realizing that he had misworded, "That's not what | meant. Of course he is
your father too." Amelia heaved a sigh and brought herself to say this, "Can you please letgo?"
Feeling guilty, Patrick stepped back and let go of her. This also meant that he had let go of the chance to make
love with her.
A while ago he was going to have her. But later all he could see was that Amelia marching towards the door and
left.
Patrick pulled his hair in frustration, he was swept with inexplicable emptiness at this moment.
He fell down onto the chair behind him. By staring at the air, he began to lose himself in his own thought.
One hour had passed.
The door of Patrick's room was knocked again. He opened his eyes and enthusiastically asked, "Is it Amelia?
Cin!"
"No, I'll just say it outside. Dinner is ready. You can cdown now."
After a pause, the sound of Amelia's footsteps could be heard fading at the staircase.
As soon as she left, his expectation was immediately replaced by the sense of emptiness. Patrick felt terribly sick
at the feeling that there was nothing left for him.
On the first floor.
"Dad, it's tto have dinner!"
Upon coming downstairs, Amelia immediately notified Howard that dinner had been served.
"Okay!" Acknowledging Amelia's words, Howard sneaked a glance in direction of upstairs. It was when he
coincidentally met with the gaze of Patrick who had just opened the door. Both of them could not help feeling
awkward.
In the meanwhile when Amelia returned to the kitchen to get soup served on the table, Patrick walked down from
the staircase and said to Howard insidiously, "Old man, you shouldn't have come." you say so? Do you really
hateso much that you don't want to seeat all?"
Howard's expression froze. He asked, "Why would
Patrick said awkwardly, "Don't put on that expression as if we are now parted by death. I'm not Amelia. | will not
fall for your trick and show any sympathy!" Hearing this, the sadness on Howard's face faded a little. Howard
suddenly began to understand the reason why his son had not been welcoming his presence. "You are jealous of
Upon hearing this, Patrick looked amused as if he had just heard the funniest joke ever.
Howard shook his head. Smiling, he asked, "So it's not for this reason?"
"Of course not!" Patrick hurriedly emphasized.
"Then I'll stay here for the night. After all I have a lot to share with Amelia."
Patrick gritted his teeth. "Don't go overboard!"
Upon hearing this, Howard could not help laughing, "I thought you just said that this has nothing to do with
Amelia?"
"Dad, what are you guys talking about? | heard you two mentioning of me."
Amelia who was carrying a bowl of soup from the kitchen caught the last part of Howard's sentence.
Howard grinned and said, "Amelia, do you know that Patrick wanted to..."
Patrick's expression darkened as he said, "Dad! You talked too much! You should save senergy for dinner."
Upon hearing Patrick calling him ‘dad’, Howard forgot that he had wanted to tease him at the very first place. He
smiled at Amelia who was confused and said, "Come, let's eat!"
After dinner.
Upon seeing that Amelia was keeping herself busy in the kitchen, Patrick could not help wondering what was she
doing right there. He stood up from his chair and walked over to her. Consequently, Amelia was taken by surprise
as soon as she turned around occasionally.
Taking a deep breath to recover from the shock, she grumbled, "Patrick, why the hell are you standing behind of
me?"
Patrick glanced at her and asked, "What are you doing here?"
