Chapter 426
Caught off guard, Mamie hurried to exin, "I...
Since she could say ''I love you'' to a man she had just met less than a day, I could not help but have
that feeling."
Patrick could not sit still any longer. He stood up, rushed to Amelia, and grabbed her by the arm
before forcing her out of the room under everyone''s gaze!
After witnessing what Patrick had done, dozens of people in the room all looked incredulous!
Manager Ramsay had just dered her love for Timothy, and then Mr. Hopper rushed over to take
her away as if he was going to fight someone. Was there a love triangle?
Only Doris nodded contentedly. "Well... Mr. Hopper finally can''t bear it and make a move!"
In the corridor, Patrick snatched the room card from a passing waiter. Looking at the spooked look
on the waiter''s face, he said, "Tell your manager that it was Patrick who took your card."
After that, without casting him another look, Patrick swiped the card to get into the nearest room.
A secondter, a beep sound came from the door, indicating that the room was unlocked.
Patrick opened the door and pushed Amelia, who kept struggling but unable to break free, into the
room.
Amelia quickly held on to the nearby wall. After stabilizing herself, she looked back at Patrick, who
was walking towards her like a leopard, and asked warily, "What... What are you doing? We are
outside. The nearby room is full of employees of Roxxon. Don''t do anything stupid!"
Patrick took off his tie and looked at her gloomily. "What else do you think a man and a woman in
the same room will do?"
"Patrick, you..."
Before she would manage the words "calm down", Patrick interrupted her with a low roar. "You
d*mn woman! How dare you flirted with another man in front of me and even said you love him?
That was unforgivable!"
Amelia felt wronged and said, "I''m not the one who proposed it. Why are you be so angry with me?"
Patrick was even angrier realizing that she refused to admit she was wrong. "Tell me. Did you touch
his chin with your hand?"
Frightened by his berserk side, Amelia took a step back and said timidly, "I have my reason..." "Tell
me. Yes or no?" The jealousy he had been enduring over the whole night finally resulted in his loss
of control, which even Patrick himself was a little surprised!
It seemed that as long as he was together with her, his reason would totally disappear. If she still
refused to admit her fault now, it might get worse.
Amelia''s big eyes were full of innocence. In the face of the man who would only listen to the result
instead of the process, she admitted with frustration, "Yes. I lifted his chin with my index finger."
But she did that only because she was trying to prove what Timothy had said was wrong! And the
effect was better than she had expected. Timothy was scared out of his wits by her reaction, and
she hadpletely won in the flirting.
After Timothy returned to the room, he had been hiding far away from Amelia. The young man must
have been terrified by her bold behavior.
But Patrick didn''t think so. All he wanted now was breaking Timothy''s chin, but the premise was to
teach this arrogant woman a lesson first.
"Amelia, I''m warning you. You are my wife. You will never hook up with other men in the rest of your
life, not to mention touching them!"

"Patrick, does it feel good to use me like that? I''d like to discuss what happened between you,
Mamie, and Leslie! You could be so intimate with them while I''m not allowed to..."
She broke off in the middle of the climax. Amelia realized that something was wrong. She almost
said something she hadn''t done out of irritation. If she blurted that out, would it be another chance
for Patrick to me her?
She changed the wording into a more eptable one, "While I''m not allowed to joke with my
colleague and rx a little?"
Patrick red at her with his bloodshot eyes and said, "The way you rx a little with him is to tell
him... that you love him?"
Love?
When Patrick first heard the word, he did want to dig out Amelia''s heart to see how big it was. How
dared she dered that she loved another man in front of him!
He had never heard of these words from her. Even to Patrick, she would only say that she liked him
at most. That was all!
Amelia exined, "That''s my punishment for losing Mamie in the finger-guessing game! It''s just like
the prank everyone ys in schools. The boy loses will have to ask the appointed girl for her phone
number or tell her that he loves her. Don''t tell me you''ve never ever yed such a game."
"I..." Patrick''s raged face went still.
From primary school to college, Patrick had always been a straight-A student. Coupled with his
handsome looks, he often received love letters or confession from girls...
Sometimes, after being rejected by him, to preserve their self-esteem, some smart girls would say
that they had done so only because of their lost bets with other ssmates. Then they would run
away.
When he was in college, this kind of "I said I love you only because I lost the bet" was quite
common. Patrick had never thought that there was any problem with those girls and only took those
confessions as harmless jokes.
But if it was just an unimportant joke, why was he so furious when Amelia had done it to another
man? Why had he even had the urge to destroy everything?
"Amelia, tell me, what trick have you yed on me..."
There was indescribable pain in his eyes when he looked at her as if admitting his feelings for her
was something uneptable to him.
An important part of the reason Patrick felt this way was rted to Sissi, his first love. Patrick had
loved her so much that before he married Amelia, and he was even ready to be single for the rest of
his life.
As a result, when he realized his strange feeling towards Amelia, Patrick had struggled... and
hesitated... and had even jumped to the conclusion that the feeling was the desire for Amelia''s
body...
But as time went by, they got along day by day and became closer and closer. He had to admit that
in addition to Sissi, Amelia was the woman he cared most about.
Hearing his word, Amelia looked up at him through her long eyshes and said with a bitter smile,
"If I could y a trick on you, it wouldn''t be so bitter for me to love you."
After that, under his stunned gaze, she looked down, walked past him, reached out to open the door
of the room, and left.
What did she say?
Patrick carefully recalled herst sentence before she left and finally made sure that it was true...
She had admitted that she loved him!
The next day.
When Amelia woke up from the bed, the man next to her was already gone. Recalling the chaos of
what had happened to herst night, she reached out to tousle her hair as if she was to vent her
anger before she removed the quilt and got out of bed to wash up.
