Chapter 461
Amelia thought that her "disobedient" had provoked Patrick when she saw him suddenly be
angry. So she could not help feeling a little nervous.
Patrick who helped Amelia wear the straw sandals suddenly raised his eyes and asked seriously, "If
I say I feel regret and want to take you home immediately, will you be angry?"
Amelia''s face was full of tears when she heard it. Patrick was really angry and did not even want to
bring her along to climb the mountain.
Patrick thought that she was determined to climb the mountain when he saw her disappointed face.
He sighed softly and said, "Let''s go."
"Where are we going?" Amelia grabbed his clothes and looked at him eagerly.
Patrick spat out three words, "Climb the mountain."
Amelia cast a puzzled nce at him. "Didn''t you say we''re going home?"
During half of the hike, Amelia started to pant. She seldom took exercises after all.
Patrick noticed there was no movement behind him after a while and could not help to turn his head
and look at her, "Can you hold on?"
Amelia who lied her head on the side of the walking stick tiredly raised her head and said, "Yes, I
can."
"Let''s go." After a short nce, Patrick continued to walk.
20 minutester--
Patrick stopped again and looked at the pale and panting woman behind him. The corner of his
mouth twitched slightly and he asked, "Are you sure you can continue?"
Amelia''s face was full of pity. She was exhausted and her face said it all.
Patrick put the luggage on the ground for the time being when he saw her situation. Then he
reached out to her and said briefly, "Give it to me."
Amelia immediately tightened her grip on her walking stick and said, "You''ve agreed to let me use
the walking stick!"
Patrick folded his arms around his chest and looked at her with his chin slightly raised. "I just
wanted to help you carry your backpack, but I didn''t expect to see your selfishness with what you
have just said. You''d better carry it yourself."
After Patrick finished his words and left Amelia stunned, he picked up the luggage on the ground
again and left without looking back.
"s... Mr. Patrick, wait for me!" After being stunned for two seconds, Amelia hurried to catch up
with him.
When it was nearly two o''clock, both of them finally saw a resting area. Amelia quickly found an
empty seat to rest and then pulled down the backpack behind her and put it on a square table.
When Amelia unzipped the zipper to find lunch, she suddenly felt itchy in the nose. So she hurriedly
covered her mouth and nose with one hand and sneezed.
Patrick''s eyes were filled with emotion when he saw this. He turned over his hand and took out a
white coat from the luggage. He shoved it into her arms and said in a business-like tone, "Put it on
and don''t make my child catch a cold!"
''Don''t make his child catch a cold! His child!''
The only thing left in Amelia''s mind was the word "child". They did not have anything yet this man
kept on talking about baby and child. How did she have to react?
She did not expect that she would get annoyed with small things like this. After taking over the coat,
she asked with her eyes down, "If I''m not pregnant,
would you still concern about me?"
Patrick shot a cold nce at her. How stupid! Did she not get it that actually he just used the baby
as an excuse to really care for her?
Deep in his heart, he really cared for her. However, he did not want to say it out, "Even if you are not
pregnant, your body has to be always ready for pregnancy and you can''t get a cold."
Amelia pouted her lips and was not satisfied with his answer. "Oh!" She said.
Patrick did not give her any chance to take pity on herself. Instead, he knocked on the table and
said, "Take out the food quickly. We still have to finish half of the climb this afternoon."
Then Amelia took out a lunch box whichbelled "Lunch two pax" from her backpack. It contained
all the cooked food but it turned cold.
When she thought about Patrick''s weak stomach, she just asked, "Why don''t we buy two bowls of
instant noodles from that little stall?"
"No." Patrick replied as if he did not eat junk food.
"Then..." Amelia looked around and found a hotel restaurant sign which was just one hundred
metres away from their resting area. She changed the topic and asked, "How about fast food?"
Patrick still replied with a "No".
When Amelia felt a little helpless, Patrick took the opportunity to take container from her hand. He
stared at the cold fried chicken, prawns and fish inside it and said, "I guess we have to eat this."
Amelia bit her lips and said, "But... obviously we have other choices as well."
Patrick paused, raised his chopsticks and looked at her coldly. Then, he picked up the food and ate
it gracefully as if nothing had happened. She made the food very early this morning so he could not
bear to waste it like this...
Amelia who sat beside secretly swallowed her saliva when she saw him enjoying the meal. Finally,
she could not resist the temptation of the food and quickly took her chopsticks as well.
Fortunately, the honey water in the portable thermos was warm. After the meal, Amelia poured two
cups of honey water and was about to enjoy it with Patrick. Suddenly she heard a vigorous greeting
from not far away. "Amelia?"
Amelia''s hand trembled when she heard the voice. She carefully put down the ss when she
noticed Patrick''s sudden cold face. She stood up and said, "Mr. Quartley, nice to meet you!"
She saw that Ryan was wearing thermal sportswear, with a shoulder bag on his shoulder and a
Canon camera hanging around his neck. It was obvious that he was here to enjoy the snowy
mountain''s beautiful scenery.
When he heard Amelia call him "Mr. Quartley", Ryan did not know whether tough or cry, "Why are
you so polite to me..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ryan suddenly caught a glimpse of Patrick who was leaning
against the pir.
Ryan only saw Amelia just now because of a specific angle.
But thinking about it, how could a girl like Amelia climb the mountain alone?
Later, Ryan remembered of the news he saw on TV and newspapers not long ago. Then he saw
Patrick and Amelia openly dating each other. Ryan said with mixed feelings, "Amelia, you have
been keeping your marriage as a secret from me for quite some time."
"I..." Amelia tried to avoid Ryan''s eyes in embarrassment. She wondered if Ryan would have a
different impression of her because she was Patrick''s wife.

As expected, Ryan continued, "If I knew earlier that you are getting married, I would have given you
a big gift to wish you the best. How about this? I''ll make it up to you next time we meet!"
Amelia''s eyes widened slightly and her heart was moved a little bit. "Mr. Quartley, that won''t be
necessary. I ept your kindness."
Ryan had always wanted to ask Amelia''s marriage in person. So he did not care whether Patrick
weed him or not and started chatting with Amelia.
The conversation between them was ringing in his ears. Patrick looked at the mountain scenery
from a distance but he clenched his fists behind his back. He suddenly found that he had another
person to beat other than Daniel.
