Chapter 289
Patrick felt his mood change quickly and asked, "Then why didn''t you give it to me?"
She licked her lower lips and said helplessly, "Because... I''m afraid you''ll refuse."
The car stopped.
It was the ce where Amelia and Florence were going to meet.
Seeing Patrick looking straight ahead without saying a word, Amelia shrugged her shoulders. When
she was about to open the door and get out of the car, Patrick said, "You can get off the car now.
But, leave the ck phone."
In the cafe.
Florence, who came to meet Amelia, watched Amelia asionally moving her fingers on the phone.
Florence asked with a smile, "Amelia, this is your new phone, isn''t it?"
Amelia stopped it and looked at Florence in surprise, "How did you know?"
"I can tell that you love it so much as you can''t let go of it."
Amelia shared her good mood with Florence, "This is the gift from Patrick." "I see." Florence asked
in a gossipy tone, "Is this the first time he gives you a gift?"
Amelia thought for a moment and said, "Well, it''s the fourth time."
The first one was a wedding ring, the second one was an anklet, the third one was a sports car, and
the fourth one was a phone.
Every gift was clearly reflected in her mind.
Florence propped up her cheek and asked, "What about you? Have you ever given him anything?"
Amelia felt embarrassed and said, "A shirt."
"What brand? Armani?"
"No, it''s just an ordinary shirt, a few bucks..."
Florence suddenly felt sorry for Patrick.
Amelia understood the emotions in Florence''s eyes and asked with frustration, "You also think I''m
stingy, don''t you?"
Florence shook her head in a hurry, "No! I was just shocked that my brother bought you gifts four
times! He has never been so generous to me!"
Amelia felt that Florence was exaggerating. She smiled and asked, "I want to buy a gift for Patrick.
Do you have any good idea about him?"
Florence smiled evilly and said, "You are the best gift for him."
Amelia''s cheeks were blush and bit her lower lip and said, "I''m serious."
"All right." Florence stopped joking and carefully gave advice to Amelia. "Just buy him a tie. He will
only wear a tie given to him by a close friend."
"Is this okay?"
In the men''s clothing brand store, there were two beautiful women leaning against each other.
Amelia showed the necktie in her hand to Florence. Florence nodded after looking at her. "Amelia,
you have good taste. I''m sure Patrick will like it!"
Looking at the tie in her hand, Amelia''s eyes were gentle. It seemed that she had already thought of
Patrick''s expression when he received the gift.
Florence suddenly said, "It''s Patrick''s birthday in a few days. Why don''t you wait until his birthday
and give it to him?"
"Is his birthdaying soon?" Amelia didn''t know at all.
Florence said frankly, "Well, but he is a person who doesn''t like social activities very much. He
barely does a birthday party. Later on, our family members got used to it. They just need to wait for
him to give a gift on his birthday to show their sincerity."
"It doesn''t look like him." Amelia murmured.
"Although he always acts like a maniac. In fact..." Under the waiting gaze of Amelia, Florence
changed her usual attitude and said, "He is insecure. He has his own world and can''t be seen by
others."
Amelia''s hand that was holding the tie slowly dropped down, and she never walked into his world at
all.
Seeing that Amelia couldn''t hide her disappointment, Florence was afraid that her words would hurt
her. She hurried to make up for it, "But you are different. I''ve never seen my brother treat a woman
so well."
Amelia asked with a deep meaning, "Are you sure?"
Florence''s face turned a little pale. She quickly changed the topic and said, "We should probably go
shopping with our girl''s stuff, right?"
"Okay." Amelia pulled the broken hair behind her ear, and her fingertips trembled slightly.
Except for Granny Hopper, all the members of The Hopper Family had buried "Sissi" in their
memories, which proved that she was not a small matter, she made this family so sensitive.
When Amelia was lost in thought, there was a sudden interruption behind her, "Miss, this tie has
already been reserved by a guest."
Amelia and Florence turned to look at the shop assistant at the same time. Florence said
discontentedly, "We''ve been picking things here for so long. Didn''t you see it? Why didn''t you tell us
earlier?"
The shop assitant ''s face was full of disdain, "It''s just that the two of you have chosen for too long
that I doubt whether you will buy it or not."
It was the first time that Florence had been irritated by such a thing since she grew up. She took out
a ck card from her purse and pped it on the shop assistant''s face. "Open your eyes and see if
I have enough money to buy it!"

When saw the ck card, the shop assistant''s expression changed, but she quickly calmed down
and said, "Miss, I have exined that someone has booked this tie. No matter how rich you are, my
store will not sell it." "You!"
"Florence..." Amelia took Florence''s clenched fist and said, "Let''s choose another one."
Florence frowned, The Hopper Family has always believed that "if you offend me, I will offend you"
but Amelia asked her to put up with it, well... she did!
"For your sake, I''ll let it go."
Facing Florence''s generous attitude, the shop assistant''s sneered and said, "Sorry, I didn''t make it
clear. The goods in this shop are not going to be sold today. Please find another shop."
This time, it was not only Florence, but also Amelia, who had a good temper, said with confusion,
"Your shop is opening, but you don''t sell your goods?"
The shop assistant responded contemptuously. "I said that I won''t sell them to you two, but I didn''t
say that I won''t sell them to other guests."
Florence''s irascible eyes stared at the name tag on the assistant''s chest and said, "Your name is
Elena Fraser, isn''t it? Tell your manager toe out. I want toin!"
Elena said with a poker face, "It''s useless to find him. I just follow our boss''s instructions."
"Cool, very cool!" Florence''s pretty face twisted as she pulled Amelia down onto the long couch and
sneered, "I''m not leaving today until you shopkeeperse out to see me."
Elena said indifferently, "Our store is very big. If you insist on staying here, we''ll be kind and take in
you as two homeless people."
Afterward, Elena turned around and left.
Florence''s eyes widened and she was shocked.
