Chapter 291
Milton smiled and nodded, "Of course, my time is all for you."
If that''s what Amelia wanted, then he would pretend to be an intimate couple with another woman
so she could rx, right?
Maryanne rubbed her head against Milton''s arm, and said sweetly, "I know that you are the best!"
Florence pretended to vomit and rolled eyes at Maryanne.
Maryanne looked embarrassed, but knowing Florence was the one with the ck card, she didn''t
want to contradict her, so she said to Amelia, "You came here to buy men''s clothes, didn''t you? For
whom?"
Her words aroused Milton''s attention. Yes, this was a men''s clothing store.
Amelia felt that there was nothing to hide, so she said frankly, "I want to buy a tie for Patrick."
The smile on Milton''s face disappeared. It seemed that the rtionship between Amelia and Patrick
had progressed very smoothly. Even she, who had always been passive, wanted to take the
initiative to give him a gift.
When heard the name "Patrick", Maryanne was not as angry as she had imagined. Instead, she
was secretly happy because of the awkwardness between Milton and Amelia.
She used Milton to stimte Amelia, and also forced Amelia to tell the name of "Patrick" so that
Milton would feel ufortable! She was happy to see that!
Florence suddenly said to Milton, "Hey, who is she? Is she your girlfriend?"

Milton replied with a slight sound of "Yeah".
Florence stared at Milton, "Your taste is too bad. How could you fall in love with her?"
Milton did not refute, because he also thought so.
Maryanne was irritated, "Miss, do you know me? Do you know my personality and family
background? If you don''t know anything about me, you don''t have the right to judge me!"
Florence smile mockingly, "Well, you two are a perfect couple!"
"Florence..." Amelia pulled Meggie''s sleeves and whispered, "Milton is my good friend. Can you
stop it?"
Florence shouted, "He is not friendly to my brother! If I don''t say so, what if he still pesters you
shamelessly?"
Milton looked awful, and that was why he hated Florence, who was so protective of Amelia! He
couldn''t talk to Amelia anywhere Florence was around!
Amelia had a headache, Florence was a nice girl, but she was too straightforward and often made
people ufortable.
Forget it. Since the owner of this store was Maryanne, there was no point for them to stay here.
Maryanne didn''t wee her, and Amelia didn''t want to buy anything from her!
She greeted Milton, "We still have something to do, so we have to leave now."
"What?" Florence was still waiting to quarrel with them, "We just leave?"
"Well, forget it." Amelia said in a gentle and persistent voice.
At this moment, Maryanne asked provocatively, "Don''t you want to buy a tie?"
Florence''s fury, which had just calmed down, suddenly red up again, "D*mn it, it''s obvious you..."
"Florence!" Amelia raised her voice and said, "Have you forgotten what you promised me?"
Florence was frightened by her and a bit overwhelmed by Amelia''s lead and left.
In the store, as long as Amelia left and Milton quickly shook off Maryanne''s hand, which was still
sped in his, with a cool look.
Maryanne patted her hands and said, "Tsk, do you think I want to touch you? I''m doing it for a
show!"
At Land of Fragrance.
Florence who had been chattering non-stop, looked annoyed, and asked, "No! Amelia, why? Didn''t
we waste so much time in that store just to find the owner to rify what happened?"
Amelia decided tofort the persistent Florence, "I didn''t know the owner was Maryanne, so I
insisted on waiting there, but if I had known from the beginning, I would have left with you a long
time ago."
"Maryanne? I''ve never heard of her... Is she very powerful?" Florence asked arrogantly. In fact, The
Hopper Family really had the quality to look down on someone.
Amelia shook her head and said, "It''s not important whether she is powerful or not. The important
thing is that she is Milton''s girlfriend, so the meaning to me has changed. Although I can''t ept
her immediately and like her, I can avoid her rudeness. I don''t want Milton to feel bad."
Florence asked cautiously, "Do you like Milton?"
Amelia raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Why do you ask this?"
Florence spoke out what she was thinking, "Because I think he''s good- looking and rich. Besides,
he''s obsessed with you. This kind of man is easy for women to fall in love with, right?"
Amelia stared at Florence''s eyes and asked, "Including you?"
Florence immediately reacted, "No way! We''re enemies, okay?"
With a chuckle, Amelia led the topic back, "He and I are childhood sweethearts."
Obviously, Florence did not ept such an answer, "Do you think straight men and straight women
can be friends?"
Amelia heaved a long sigh and said, "Please don''t doubt my loyalty to your brother."
Florence choked as if she had said something wrong, "Sorry, I''m just curious." "I know," Amelia said
with an understanding smile.
At noon, Amelia, who was having lunch, suddenly received a phone call from Patrick.
"What''s the matter?" she asked.
"I heard that you were in trouble when you were shopping with Florence today?" He went straight to
the point.
Amelia frowned and cast a nce at Florence, who was in front of her. When her eyes met
Florence''s, Florence silently raised the bowl...
Amelia said calmly, "It''s all right now."
Patrick said in a deep voice, "It''s your business to have a strong heart, but I can''t sit by and do
nothing if The Hopper Family has been bullied."
Amelia had a headache with the calcting nature of Patrick and Florence, "Maryanne is Hobart''s
sister, and doesn''t Hobart still have business dealings with ourpany? Besides, Florence and I
are fine, so let''s make peace."
Patrick snorted, "What a coward!"
Amelia coaxed, "Yes, I''m just cowardly, OK? You take it easy..."
Patrick suddenly said in a very serious tone, "Next time something like this happens, I want you to
tell me in person instead of passing it to others. Do you understand?"
Amelia felt a warmth in her heart and answered softly, "Thank you." Thank you for your strange
concern, Patrick.
