Chapter 456
Daniel, who had always been patient, shook his dizzy head after being punched by Patrick. Then,
he propped himself up from the wall with his long fingers and looked at the terrifyingly imposing
Patrick with blood-red eyes. He was silent but determined to fight back!
Patrick was even more unceremonious when he saw Daniel trying to fight back. Just like that, two
adult men started to throw punches towards each other!
Wherever they went was a battlefield. All the medical equipment in a huge ward fell to the ground
with a crashing sound!
Amelia''s pretty face looked worried and anxious when she felt concern for Patrick''s safety. She saw
that the corner of Patrick''s mouth had been punched severely. The patients from other wards ran
over to watch when they heard the noise.
She suddenly seized the opportunity and blocked Patrick before Daniel''s fist fell!
Daniel quickly held back his arm when he saw Amelia rushing in!
A pair of cold eyes locked onto her shocked face when he realized that his punch had almost
landed on her body. She ran out with all her might in order to protect her husband, Daniel could not
help but narrow his brows. "Are you looking for death?"
On the other hand, Patrick hurriedly turned Amelia''s body around to make sure that there were no
injuries, then the tension on his face eased.
After a moment, he asked angrily, "Why did you run in when two men were fighting?"
Amelia pathetically nced at the corner of his red lips, "I... I''m worried about you."
He looked at her tearful eyes. Even though he knew that she was worried about him, he still didn''t
treat her well. "I''ll get even with youter!"
Amelia''s face turned paler. "What... what did I do n n
wrong?
Daniel clenched his hands into fists when the both of them werepletely ignoring him. If there
was only one thing he regretted in his life, it was undoubtedly that he gave up on Amelia!
"Amelia? Daniel? Master... Hopper? What are you guys doing here?"
When the three of them were minding their own business, Alice, who was in the next door patient
room, had already walked out after hearing themotion.
When she looked up through the gap in front of the crowd, Alice saw three people confronting each
other. It was obvious a fight had broken out between Patrick and Daniel looking from the bruises on
their faces!
Daniel and Amelia froze when they heard Alice''s voice. Only Patrick remained as proud as a
peacock.
"Mom..." Daniel quickly put on a pair of oval sses that he had put in his pocket to save them from
being damaged in the fight. If people ignored the bruises on his face, he would undoubtedly be that
handsome young man again.
Daniel walked up to Alice and said with a forced smile, "Mom, aren''t you apanying dad? Why
did youe out so suddenly?"
Alice raised her hand and touched Daniel''s bruised eyes. He asked with a frown, "There''s such a
big noise here, so I couldn''t helping over. But I didn''t expect that you were here."
"I..." Daniel''s expression suddenly changed. This time, he could not retain hisposure. If Alice
found out that he fought with Patrick due to jealousy, how could he continue his revenge?
"Wait a minute." Alice stopped Daniel.
She turned around, closed the door and then the curtains to block the onlookers outside. After that,
she turned and asked the three of them in the room, "Now, can you tell me what happened?"
Daniel''s brows were raised. No matter how exquisite he was, he could not help but be
speechless when he heard Alice''s question.
Alice saw Daniel''s speechless look and because she was not familiar with Patrick, she could only
turn her inquisitive eyes to Amelia. "Amelia, why don''t you tell me?"
"Hmm..." The corners of Amelia''s mouth twitched. She was caught in the contradiction to tell Alice
the truth.
If she told the truth, Alice would assuredly suffer a great blow. She had always treated Daniel as
Brittany''s future husband to pamper and nurture him.
In other words, if Alice and Daniel suddenly turned against each other, Brittany would definitely
me her, if she knew about it. She can''t imagine what would Brittany would do then!
She still remembered thest time Brittany threw a bottle of sulfuric acid at her. She was lucky to
survive.
Moreover, the wedding date between Daniel and Brittany had been booked. The wedding invitations
had been sent to many friends and rtives. If the reason why they changed their mind so suddenly
was that Daniel and Amelia were having an affair, while Amelia was Patrick''s wife. Would it affect
the reputation of both families?
Last but not least, Daniel was in control of Apex Construction Corporation. If he was angry, he might
do something harmful to thepany or would simply resign and leak Apex Construction
Corporation''s secrets to otherpanies. Wouldn''t she be the one to be med?
The more she thought about it, the more Amelia felt that something was not right. She was rather
pessimistic!
But with the persistent expression in Alice''s eyes, Amelia understood that Alice would not be
satisfied if she did not tell her anything.

"It''s like this. My husband and Daniel were having a chat when they met and suddenly talked about
sports. One of them has learned boxing and the other has learned martial art. They then wanted to
compete with each other on a whim. And then... Well, you saw it."
After Amelia finished talking, she quickly looked up at the ceiling.
Alice, Patrick, and Daniel were speechless.
After a while, Alice slowly raised her hand and touched her face. She thought to herself, "Is it so
easy to fool me?"
Daniel first took a nce at Amelia and then nodded at Alice in a high-pitched manner. "Mother,
everything is just like what Amelia said."
See! Daniel was a real hypocrite. He would not even blush when he lied. Amelia silently looked
down upon him.
Alice naturally did not believe Amelia and Daniel''s words. They wanted to hide it from her. So, no
matter how she asked, she would not be able to get anything out of them.
Afterposing herself, Alice said to Amelia and Patrick, "Daniel and Brittany''s wedding will be
held in half a month. I have a favor to ask both of you."
"What is it? " Amelia said.
"The family''s staff is not sufficient enough. If you''re free, can you... ugh..."
Alice blushed in the middle of her speech. It was really because Brittany owed Amelia so much.
Just the fact that she stole Daniel from Amelia was enough to make them feel ashamed for the rest
of their lives. How could they have the dignity to ask Amelia to do all these things for them?
