Chapter 519


    Amelia could not help but feel a little helpless when she saw that Daniel and Alice were in an


    awkward situation.


    Amelia considered that her rtionship with Brittany was sensitive. She did not want people to think


    that she could bully Brittany because she was elder than her. She did not want to disgrace Patrick


    and herself just for the sake of a vile person like Daniel.


    Amelia moved closer to Patrick. Then she looked at him and said softly, "Forget it."


    Patrick''s handsome face looked confused, "Are you begging for mercy for him?"


    Amelia shook her head and said, "I don''t want to put Alice in a difficult position."


    "Fine." Patrick answered simply. He picked up a ss of wine in front of him in a graceful manner.


    He stood up and gave Daniel a light clink. "Brother-inw, I wish you and Brittany a happy


    marriage."


    Daniel went against his conscience and said "Thank you, you too". He then silently poured all the


    wine into his mouth in order to relieve his depressed mood.


    After drinking up the wine, Daniel said, "Brittany may


    need me. Please do excuse me."


    Patrick could tell that Daniel was looking for an excuse to escape. He said, "Suit yourself."


    As soon as Daniel left, Patrick immediately raised his lips at Amelia and asked, "Are you happy?"


    Amelia said, "Yes, I''m happy. If Alice didn''te halfway, we still can teach him some good


    lessons."


    "Well have the chance."


    "Just kidding. Don''t take it seriously." Amelia knew that once Daniel became serious, normal people


    would not be able to bear consequences. So she hurriedly said.


    When the wedding almost came to an end, Amelia who drank and ate a lot said to Patrick tenderly,


    "Mr. Hopper, I''m going to the washroom."


    Patrick replied with a "Okay" calmly. However, when Amelia turned around, he ordered Huxton to


    follow her quietly.


    Ten minutester...


    When Amelia came out from thedies'' room, a young man walked towards her. She nced at him


    and then looked away unconcernedly.


    Amelia had just walked a few steps, then she suddenly heard the young man''s hesitant voice


    behind her. "Amelia?"


    Amelia was stunned.


    The young man was Ned. Maybe it was because he had seen Amelia in the photo, so he had an


    inexplicable familiarity with her. He could not help but to call her out.


    Amelia looked at him with a confused look. "You are?"


    Ned involuntarily straightened his back and introduced himself, "I''m Ned Phillips, I''m Daniel''s


    younger brother!"

    Daniel''s younger brother? Why hadn''t she heard Daniel mention him before?


    Wait. Not to mention Daniel''s younger brother, Daniel did not even mention about his father or


    mother.


    "Ned, is it? Why do you call me?" She asked.


    "Nothing, I just want to say hello to you because I recognize that you are Daniel''s sister-inw."


    Amelia slightly lowered her eyes and said, "Oh." When she looked at Ned carefully, she found that


    his charm was very simr to Daniel''s which made her somewhat dislike him.


    When Ned saw that Amelia did not want to talk to him, he stood there awkwardly and said, "Uh..."


    Ned felt so stupid. At first he just wanted to say hello and leave. However, it became awkward


    because of him. So, should he leave?


    Amelia''s heart softened when she saw Ned''s struggling face. She knew that Ned was still an


    inexperienced teenager and probably different from Daniel. So she took the initiative to ask, "Oh


    yeah. I don''t think you live in Northville right?"


    Amelia''s words helped to ease Ned''s embarrassment. He hurriedly replied, "I''m staying in my


    hometown. Daniel is staying in Northville."


    Amelia asked, "Any other family members in your family beside you and your brother?"


    "My mother," Ned blurted out.


    Amelia ruefully thought, "So Daniel still had a mother. However why did Daniel always change the


    subject every time she asked about his mother?"


    Amelia thought that Daniel was an orphan or his parents had passed away when he was very


    young. So she did not want to answer such a sensitive question. She did not expect that he had a


    mother and a brother as well. It was just that Daniel refused to tell her.


    Amelia thought of a possibility. "May I ask, are your brother and your mother in a bad rtionship?"


    Ned was very surprised. "What? Why do you ask that? My brother is very filial to my mother. Every


    time he calls me, he will ask about my mother. He will buy a lot of things for us when hees


    home for Christmas! Food, clothes, and most of them are prepared for my mother."


    "Really?" Amelia thought Daniel was a filial son after hearing these from his brother.


    "What a pity..." Ned''s expression turned into disappointment. "If mom hadn''t gone mad, she


    would''ve been able to enjoy her retirement life."


    Amelia frowned. "Aunt... has a mental disorder?"


    Ned was an honest child. He told everything when she asked about it, "Well, I heard from Daniel


    that my mother gone mad after I was born."


    "How did she be like this?" Amelia asked carefully with a gentle and sweet tone.


    Ned sighed, "Daniel told me that our mother became insane after our dad passed away from an


    ident."


    "Then your father..."


    When Amelia was about to ask more questions, a rough voice suddenly sounded behind her.


    "Madam, it''s about time to return. Don''t let sir wait for too long."


    Amelia frowned. She bent her legs and looked at the man who appeared in front of her like a ghost.


    She said angrily, "Is it your sir who sent you to spy on me again?" "It''s for protection," Huxton


    corrected.


    Amelia gritted her teeth and said, "Let''s go!"


    "Okay." Huxton led the way.


    Before Amelia left, she rushed to Ned who was behind her looking lost and said, "Let''s talk next


    time."


    To be honest, Daniel''s family background made her interested to find out more about him.


    "Okay." Ned simply agreed.


    Huxton who was standing beside her heard it and reminded her coldly, "Madam, if sir hears these


    words, he''ll have to torment you again."


    Amelia''s pretty face turned red. "Then don''t let him hear it, okay?"


    Huxton said dispassionately, "No. Sir ordered that whenever you have contact with any strange


    man, I must report it to him. Moreover, madam you had asked a man to meet you next time."


    When Amelia thought about Patrick''s crazy side, she kept walking and threatened Huxton, "Don''t


    forget that I saved one of your hands that day!"


    The expression in Huxton''s eyes changed, but it quickly vanished. "These are two different things."


    Amelia stopped and looked at him. "Do you have to report to Patrick?"


    Huxton nodded without hesitation. "Yes."


    Since she could not convince him, a sudden idea struck her. She pulled out her phone from her


    pocket and pressed the camera button. She stepped forward and grabbed Huxton''s arm. She raised


    the camera in her hand, and she managed to take a photo.
