Chapter 652


    Sissi managed to avoid his hand from reaching the noodle. She frowned and replied in frustration, "I


    know that you''re not used in eating junk food... I think it''d be better for you to go back."


    Hearing this, Patrick lowered his voice as he said, "Go back? Where do you want me to go?"


    Sissi nced at him and said softly, "Where else can it be? Of course it''s your own house."


    With his eyes darkened, Patrick abruptly grasped her chin to force her into looking at him. He spoke


    decisively, "Are you now chasing me away?"


    Sissi''s gaze trembled upon hearing this. She did not think that she had confidence to be mad at


    him.


    If it was in the past, she could sulk at her will.


    However, this time she was afraid that the moment that she said ''yes'', he was going to turn around


    and leave without hesitation.


    Sissi forced a smile. She reached out to hold his hand which was now holding her chin. When she


    spoke again, her tone sounded rxed, "I''m just kidding. I''ve already made you noodle, why would I


    chase you away at this time? Moreover, you''re the one who found me this house. Hence, you''re the


    head of this family."


    The phrase ''head of this family'' sounded very subtle. Patrick abruptly let go of his grip on her. He


    nced away with his lips pursed.


    Meanwhile, at the Land of Fragrance.


    When Amelia returned home with her mind preupied, she saw that the slippers belonged to


    Patrick were still lying on the shoe rack neatly. Her eyes widened. She wondered if this man had


    nned not to return home anymore.


    "Ms. Amelia, you''re back." A bnced meal had already been served on the table by Scarlett. As


    soon as she heard the door opening, she hurriedly came over to greet Amelia.


    Turning around, Amelia nodded in acknowledgement as if there was nothing absurd, "Hello, Dr.


    Scarlett."


    Scarlett said enthusiastically, "You have came back at the right time. I''ve just gotten the dishes


    done. Do you want to have your meal now? Or do you want to wait for Mr. Patrick? I can heat up the


    food for youter."


    A trace of guilt shed across Amelia''s face as she said, "I''m sorry. I''ve already eaten before I came


    back. I''m sorry that I had forgotten to call and inform anyone at home."


    Scarlett frowned when she heard the first half sentence of Amelia. But as soon as she realized that


    Amelia had regarded her as part of the members in this house, Scarlett could not help feeling


    delighted, "No worries! I''ll keep the dishes for Mr. Patrick."


    "Sure." Amelia scratched her head sheepishly. She dared not to tell Scarlett that even Patrick might


    not be returning home for dinner too.


    The next second, she seemed to think of something and asked, "By the way, didn''t Huxton say


    anything to you when I was yet to be home just now?"


    Since Huxton had fixed a hearing device on her, supposedly he should have already known that she


    was going to have dinner with Jonathan.


    In this case, even if she had forgotten to call and tell Scarlett, Huxton could have simply told Scarlett


    himself so that she did not have to prepare for Amelia''s portion.


    "You''re talking about him?" Scarlett pointed at the room upstairs and rolled her eyes as she


    continued, "I heard the men in ck saying that he had not woke up sincest night after he got


    himself drunk. Such a useless fellow!"


    Amelia stunned for a while before she broke into aughter, "This can only tell that he''s indeed a


    special man. You shouldn''t have to worry for him."


    Realizing the counter meaning of Amelia''s words,


    Scarlett said with her face flushed, "What are you talking about? Whether he''s a special man or not


    has nothing to do with me."


    Amelia pursed her lips and smiled, "Yea yea, I understand! You two are not together. There''s no


    hugging or kissing between the two of you. Am I right?"


    Scarlett''s heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly exined in panic, "That was just an ident! Don''t


    you dare to make any rumor of it, do you hear me?"


    If that was an ident, this could only say that it did happen before. In that case, how could Scarlett


    use her of spreading rumors?


    She shook her head in silence. Amelia tried tofort Scarlett who was embarrassingly frustrated,


    "I got it. You don''t have to be panic..."


    Scarlett was still anxious, "Who''s feeling panic? I''m just trying to make you understand. I have


    nothing to do with Huxton Fuller."


    Amelia tried to stop her hence she replied in favor of her words, "Okay okay. I got it alright?"


    During their chaos, the door of one of the rooms upstairs abruptly opened. Someone stuck out his


    head from the room with his face puzzled after long hours of sleep.


    He shook his head vigorously in attempt to make himself awake. The next second, his face turned


    expressionless again.


    Themotion had led Huxton downstairs. He first nced at Amelia''s helpless face before he


    looked at Scarlett''s endless chattering. He could have more or less tell what had happened, hence


    he said coldly, "Dr. Scarlett, please don''t disturb madam!"


    His words had led to both women ncing at him simultaneously.


    "Hey, Huxton." Amelia spoke in relief.


    Seeing this, Huxton''s tone was getting colder when he asked Scarlett, "Had you done preparing


    dinner?"


    Scarlett''s face was still flushed with heat after being teased by Amelia, she dared not to look at


    Huxton at all. She nced away sheepishly and said, "I''ve done it long ago."


    Huxton replied in hurry, "Since you''re done, please go back now."


    "What did you say?" It was obvious that Scarlett was annoyed.


    Huxton looked at her coldly and said, "You''re too noisy here. Your presence will only disturb


    Madam."


    "Huxton!" Amelia was stunned when she realized that he was trying to chase Scarlett away.


    Although she was not sure of what was going on, she decided to say something anyway,


    "Dr. Scarlett is not an outsider, you..."


    Huxton interrupted her, "Madam, had anything happened when you were out today?"


    Amelia subconsciously answered his question before she wanted to continue her words, "Oh, I''m


    good."


    As Amelia was replying Huxton''s question, Scarlett took the opportunity to flee the scene.


    From the corner of his eyes, Huxton noticed her tearing eyes when she left. Despite feeling tensed,


    he had not asked her to stay.


    "Eh?" Amelia turned around but Scarlett was already nowhere to be seen. She nced at Huxton


    strangely and said, "Why would you want to chase her away?"


    Huxton again replied with the same answer, "She had disturbed you."


    Amelia had no other choice but to admit, "It wasn''t her fault. I''m the one who teased her first. All she


    did was just exining to me."


    Huxton remained silence as if he was unmoved by Amelia''s exnation.


    Upon seeing that Huxton had refused to listen to her, Amelia made an assumption, "Huxton, be


    honest with me. Was it because you heard that


    Dr. Scarlett had been denying the rtionship between the two of you which make you this angry?"


    Huxton could not help trembling.


    Amelia peeked at him and demanded for an answer, "Am I right?"


    Huxton remained silence but in fact he deeply raging inside.


    Amelia rolled her eyes and said, "So it''s true!"


    "Madam." Huxton could not stand anymore. He finally spoke, "If you are going to mention her name


    in front of me again, I''m not going to turn off the hearing device when sir makes out with you next


    time."


    With that said, he turned around and left emotionlessly. Amelia was left stoning on her feet upon


    hearing his threat.


    Nine o''clock at night.
