Chapter 266


    What was she worthy of favor? If he did not like her then he shouldn''t sleep with her anymore!


    They shouldn''t argue in front of their elders, but her attitude at the moment was bad too.


    Patrick immediately got up from the couch and said fiercely, "What did you say, say it again, out


    loud!"


    Amelia stared at him forcefully, "I''m not a repeater, and I won''t repeat it again!"


    "Stop arguing!" Just as Patrick was about to burst into the fire of irritation, Granny Hopper said,


    "Patrick, I have more experiences in this world than you have. I can see clearly what kind of person


    Amelia is when the first time I met her. If you don''t like her, then you don''t have good taste!"


    "Granny..." Amelia was touched, and her crying voice was soft and sweet, which made Granny


    Hopper''s heart melt.


    "Good girl, don''t feel wronged. I''m here. Let''s see who dares to bully you!" Granny Hopper stared at


    Eve and Patrick domineeringly as if she were a queen in this house.


    Seeing his grandmother treating her like Amelia''s own grandmother, Patrick had mixed emotions


    and after ring at Amelia, turned around angrily and went upstairs.

    Eve took the opportunity to be sarcastic, "Amelia, you can''t even amodate your husband, and I


    really doubt you''ll ever divorce Patrick."


    Amelia pursed her lips, she was in a bad mood and didn''t want to talk.


    Granny Hopper calmly responds to the smug Eve, "I didn''t approve of you and my son''s marriage in


    the first ce either, haven''t you been together until now?"


    Embarrassed at being rebuffed, Eve then managed a smile and said, "It''s about time, I''m going


    home and I''ll pick you up for dinner in a couple of days."


    Eve intentionally avoided Granny Hopper, and Granny Hopper didn''t want to see Eve, and then


    Granny Hopper said indifferently, "Go back then, don''te over here and bother me. I''m an old


    woman, I like peace and quiet, and I can''t stand your dramatic personality."


    Granny Hopper contradicts Eve in front of Amelia. Eve was humiliated. Sometimes Eve really hated


    this old woman. She''d been married to Howard for over thirty years and gave him children. Why did


    her mother-inw still dislike her so much!


    Eve left wistfully, Granny Hopper turned to Amelia.


    Realizing the sadness on her face, Granny Hopper sighed and said, "Although Patrick is mean, he


    is having a hard time."


    As Patrick''s grandmother, she knew the reason for Patrick''s madness. However, Granny Hopper felt


    gratified that seeing Amelia was not afraid of Patrick, since what she wanted was a granddaughter-


    inw who could be Patrick''s equal.


    Amelia frowned and said, "Grandma, do you know what Patrick is facing with?"


    Granny Hopper nodded with mncholy. "I don''t know if you''ve heard of the name ''Sissi''?"


    Was it really because of that woman?


    Amelia was hesitated for a moment and answered, "Yes, but not exactly. I heard that Sissi is


    Patrick''s high school teacher?"


    "To be exact, it''s a substitute teacher. In the year of senior year in high school, his English teacher


    got cancer, so the school hired a college intern to substitute for the ss. It was also at that time


    that Patrick changed and became crazy for his substitute teacher..."


    "And then?" Listening to Patrick''s story, Amelia was to be attracted.


    "At the beginning, we thought he was still young, easy to make things wrong, and he saw a slightly


    mature woman, he mistakenly thought she was true love. So we privately used our power to make


    this substitute teacher disappear from the school. Later, Patrick sessfullypleted the college


    entrance examination and got into a first-ss university."


    After a pause, Granny Hopper continued, "We thought everything was under our control, but Patrick


    was much more persistent than we thought. He didn''t mention Sissi to us on the surface but secretly


    pursued her. Until the year of freshmen, he took Sissi home to announce that they were in love, and


    he didn''t forget to warn us that he must be with Sissi. If Sissi got in trouble, he would not be


    happy..."


    Amelia touched her chest. She couldn''t believe that she was actually jealous of Sissi, even though


    "Sissi" was only the hostess of the story now.


    Amelia''s voice was hoarse and asked. "Since they love each other so much, why should they


    separate?"


    Granny Hopper''s lighthearted response, however, shocked Amelia: "Because Sissi wasn''t even as


    good as Patrick said she was, she was unclear with their rtionship from the start, and just as she


    and Patrick were about to get married, she was suddenly exposed as having an affair with a


    businessman''s son, and even worse, she had another fiance abroad. By that time, Patrick had a


    new house ready for moving in with her, it is the one you''re living in now!"


    Hearing this, Amelia began to think. She felt lost and suddenly began to understand why Patrick


    had treasured that study. It must have been full of things rted to Sissi, so he was afraid that she


    would go in and "defile" it.


    Amelia gave an awkwardugh, and she suddenly wondered how much she weighed on Patrick''s


    mind? Was she an intruder when she lived in the house that was supposed to belong to Patrick and


    Sissi''s wedding?


    "Granny, after Sissi exposed her other affairs, did Patrick propose to break up with her?" Amelia


    asked.


    No man could tolerate his woman cheating on him, let alone the egotistical Patrick.


    At the mention of this Granny Hopper gets angry, "I don''t know what method Sissi used, to which


    Patrick reacts by saying that he can forgive Sissi for her betrayal if she breaks off her engagement


    to her fiance and then doesn''t see the businessman''s son for the rest of her life." "Forgive?" Amelia


    giggled but she actually was sad. It seemed funny that the man as arrogant as Patrick couldn''t


    escape the web of lies Sissi''d woven...


    Granny Hopper understood the whole process and felt sorry for Patrick, "Just because Patrick can


    forgive Sissi doesn''t mean that we can. My husband has a very bad temper, and Patrick was beaten


    up by his grandfather over Sissi. Eve even asked my husband to pressure Sissi with strong-arm


    tactics to force Sissi out of Northville."


    Amelia hesitated for a moment and asked, "Hasn''t Sissi fought for this rtionship like Patrick?"
