Chapter 746
Amelia felt that it was better not to tell Patrick that she was pregnant.
It was true that Patrick hoped to have a baby with her.
However, since ancient times, there were many cases of father just wanted to keep the kids but not
the mother.

What if Patrick just wanted to exploit her to give birth to The Hopper Family''s sessor? How could
she bear with it if this was the case?
"Ten, nine, eight..."
The moment the bathroom door was pulled open, the handsome man sitting in the bathtub counted
until ''one''.
When Patrick counted until zero, while Amelia''s left foot which had just lifted did not enter the
bathroom on time. She heard Patrick said in a serious tone, "You''rete."
It was only a bitte...
Amelia''s eyes swept over Patrick''s exposed body and her feeling of suffocating returned.
Amelia pulled herself together and she put aside all the delusions in her mind. Then she exined
to Patrick, "I return as fast as I can."
"But you''re stillte." Patrick was really calctive.
"One secondte? No, maybe less than a second. It''s only zero point one second. You''re a grown
man yet you want to haggle with me?" Amelia talked softly.
Patrick looked unhappy. He could ignore other things but not his welfare. He wanted fairness even
he had to create trouble for it.
Patrick spread out his slender and strong arms and ced them on the edge of the bathtub. He
then stretched out his tired body and said, "As a punishment for beingte, rub my shoulders first."
Amelia looked at him. The edge of the bathtub was neither too high nor too low. The best way was
to find a small stool to sit down, so she would not be too tired.
Amelia considered the baby in her belly and said, "I need a stool."
Patrick''s eyes which had been closed suddenly opened unhappily. "Why do you have so many
excuses?"
"You''re talking as if you don''t have any!" Amelia was a little annoyed by his words. "If you''re really
tired of waiting, you can just massage your shoulders and
back yourself. I won''t serve you anymore!"
Patrick''s heart tightened. How could he forget!
Patrick was not really asking Amelia to serve him. He just wanted to use it as an excuse to break
the ice between them.
Since that was the case, it was okay to just give her one minute to take a stool so she would not
feel vengeful on him!
After Patrick thought about it, he did not try to stop her anymore. "Okay, you may go."
Amelia made full use of the time and turned to leave.
In the storeroom.
"That''s weird. I remember that the stool was here before."
A woman stood under a dim light. She used her hands to wave the dust away from her nose and
she kept finding. However, she could not find it.
Just then, a cold male voice suddenly sounded at the door. "Who''s inside?"
Amelia quickly raised her head from the piled-up storage and turned to look at theer. "It''s me,
Amelia!"
After a pause, the male voice softened. "Madam, what are you doing inside?"
Amelia''s nose was itchy and she could not care less about her image. She raised her index finger
and rubbed it horizontally. She said in a low and muffled voice, "I''m looking for a small stool. Oh,
right. Huxton, do we have a small stool at home?"
Huxton walked over a few steps and passed Amelia''s right side. He opened a box and a small stool
was revealed.
Amelia cheered "That''s it!" when Huxton bent down and picked up the small stool. After he dusted it
a few times with his hand, he handed it to her hands reassuringly.
"Thanks." Amelia nced at Huxton and said wistfully, "I never expected you to be more familiar
with everything in the house than me."
Huxton lowered his head slightly. He asked in a neither happy nor angry tone, "Madam, are you
ming me for being a busybody?"
Amelia was shocked and quickly exined, "You misunderstood it! I feel grateful to have you. Your
existence make our family affairs easier. It''s great to have you as the butler here! I''m relieved."
Amelia''s heartfeel words did not only fall into Huxton''s ears but also into Patrick''s ears. He just
appeared at the store room''s door.
Patrick acted impulsively. He rushed over and pulled Amelia behind him. He yelled at Huxton who
was
still holding a small stool, "Get out of here!"
Huxton looked at Amelia and Patrick. Then he thought about what Amelia said to him just now. It
was normal. Wasn''t it?
However, his master was angry. Who would believe that when Patrick said he did not love his wife?
Amelia stared at Patrick''s fierce shadow and did not understand the reason he was angry. She said,
"Huxton is here to help me..."
Patrick stared at Huxton. His eyes were like the eyes of a wild beast being alert and was getting
ready to hunt for the prey.
Huxton had a strong will. He nodded to show that he should get out immediately. Before he left, he
put the stool beside Patrick''s feet and said politely to them, "You''re wee. I''ll get out of here
now."
As soon as Huxton left, Patrick turned to Amelia immediately. He looked like he was going to strip
and eat her alive.
Then Amelia just realized Patrick''s white shirt was unbuttoned.
The water droplets were still on his skin. They were rolling slowly from his chest then to his waist...
Amelia was in a trance. She raised her hand to cover her temple and swifted her gaze. This was not
the time to drool over the beast in front of her. Did she not see that he was going to tear her apart?
She could either ran away or tried to appease him at this time. There was no other way.
When Amelia realized that she had no where to run, she chose thetter. "Shouldn''t you be waiting
for me in the bath? Why did youe out?"
After a while, Patrick gritted his teeth and talked, "I''ve been waiting for you for a while!"
She said a minute and a half.
But she left for an entire half an hour!
He had soaked so long that his body was going to swell!
Amelia must have forgotten him!
Patrick had been waiting in the bathtub for half an hour. When he realized this, he put on his pants,
then his shirt, and searched for her everywhere like a crazy man!
In the end, Patrick saw Amelia and Huxton in a small dim room and Amelia confessing to Huxton....
"How long have you been waiting for me?" Amelia tilted her head. It seemed that she had been
busy looking for the stool, but she had neglected the most important thing, which was Patrick''s
patience.
Patrick''s face turned sour when he saw that her face was confused. "You''ve been away for half an
hour.
Don''t you think it''s too long?"
Half an hour was quite a while...
Amelia asked subconsciously, "Have you finished taking your bath then?"
Patrick shook his head bitterly to show that he did not have one.
Amelia felt strange and asked, "Why did you waste your time waiting for me when you can take your
shower?"
