Chapter 859
Kiara immediately put the broom against the wall and walked up to Brittany. She then asked, "Ms.
Brittany, what can I do for you?"
Brittany lifted her chin and asked, "Do you know why Patrick is here?"
Kiara blurted out, "Ms. Brittany, Mr. Hopper is hereto persuade your sister to go back with him."
Brittany was stunned. "What did you say?"
"Oh, by the way, based on what I remembered, this isn''t the first time that Mr. Hopper had visited
us."
Kiara mentioned that she remembered seeing Patrick sleeping on the floor in Amelia''s room by
ident.
Brittany''s mind went nk when she heard that. She did not even notice when Kiara left.
She had always thought that Amelia was abandoned by Patrick, so she ran back to their parents''
home.
However, she would never have thought that the one being abandoned was Patrick!
At Land of Fragrance.
When Amelia returned home, she found that the house was empty, not even a shadow could be
seen. Paisley and the men in ck that would be there was nowhere to be found too.
Right at this moment, Rick came out of his doghouse while wagging his tail. He shook his head
upon seeing them and he looked cute and lovely.
He walked towards Amelia andy down right on her shoes. Hethen raised his head and looked at
Amelia with his tongue poking out.
Amelia knew that Rick was lying on the ground like this because he wanted someone to pet him.
She squatted down and patted Rick from head to tail, Rick was enjoying it so much that he started
to gurgle.
After a while, Amelia let go of Rick who was totally enjoying the petting, she then stood up and
asked Patrick who had been staring at them, "So, why did you want me toe back?"
Patrick pointed to the sofa next to him. "Don''t worry. It''s still early. Let''s sit down for a while first."
Amelia threw a few nces at him and then sat down on another sofa.
Seeing that she was nervous, Patrick could not help but feel helpless. "Just rx, I''m your husband.
Do you think I will harm you?"
Ameliained relentlessly, "In fact, you have done a lot of things to hurt me."

Patrick was speechless for a moment before he emphasized, "That was in the past!"
"Who knows?" Amelia answered with a smile.
All of a sudden she felt relieved after taunting Patrick.
She even forgot that she was a guest here and poured herself a ss of water.
The ss, the electric kettle.
She had already used these things thousands of times. If she would need to hand it to Sissi one day
then she would...
Hiss!
As she was lost in her thoughts, Amelia felt a burning sensation on her fingertip.
When she came back to her sense, she frowned as the boiling hot water was spilling out from the
cup she was holding and she was scalded by it.
She endured the pain and ced the cup on the tea table. Amelia was at a loss for a moment. Why
would she be thinking about Sissi at a moment like this. She even scalded herself, that was really a
big loss for her.
"What''s wrong with you?" Seeing this, Patrick took a few steps forward and grabbed her hand that
was scalded. He red at her angrily and shouted. "Stupid woman! You can''t even pour yourself a
ss of water and yet you want to move out, I''m sure bad things would happen to you all the time!"
Amelia was so embarrassed and she wanted to pull her hand back. "It was just an ident. Let go
of me."
Patrick let out an exasperated expression and said, "Stop twisting around. Stay still!"
As he spoke, he gently blew on her finger that was scalded. The burning pain then faded quickly.
After a while when the pain had faded, Amelia stopped Patrick from continuing, "It''s no longer
painful, let go, please"
Patrick squatted down in front of her, it was obvious that he was worn out by continuously blowing
on Amelia''s finger but as he heard Amelia stopping him, he said reluctantly "No, I have to lick it for it
to recover quicker."
Amelia went speechless
Ding dong! Ding dong!
Just as Patrick was about to lick Amelia''s finger, the doorbell rang.
Patrick''s face was dead calm but he was already cursing in his heart.
Amelia asked softly, "Who would it be?"
"I don''t know!" Patrick said angrily.
He straightened up and stomped his way towards the door.
Amelia did not understand why was he furious out of a sudden. Was it because that she had
scalded her fingers?
A few secondster, Patrick greeted a group of people with a sullen face.
The team consisted of three people, namely Owen, Scarlett and Huxton.
When Amelia saw Huxton, she stood up from the sofa and called out excitingly, "Huxton!"
Huxton''s eyes met hers. He looked at her with aplicated expression. "Madam."
Enough!
Patrick red at the two men in front of him. They had just entered his house and they were already
eye-flirting with his wife. Did they just ignore the fact that he was there?
Just as he was about to interrupt them, he heard Owen say, "Aren''t you going to invite us to take a
seat?"
Patrick had nowhere to vent his anger. "It''s not like this is the first time you''re here. Just sit
anywhere you want," he said.
"Oh. Then, I''ll sit next to Amelia then." Owen smiled faintly.
Patrick was speechless.
On the other side, Amelia was already chatting with Huxton and Scarlett. "How are you guys
doing?"
Amelia knew that Scarlett had always been living alone.
And since there was one more person staying with her, it would definitely bring inconvenience to her
even though he was her boyfriend.
Hearing this, Scarlett looked sideways and said to Huxton, "Turn around and don''t eavesdrop."
Huxton pursed his lips and turned around.
Seeing this, Amelia was surprised and she secretly sighed because there was another person in
this world that could order Huxton around except Patrick.
"Let me tell you..." After making sure that Huxton had turned around, Scarlett whispered in her ear,
"He is very well-behaved. He would sleep in the room next door when I ask him to do so. What''s
more, he takes good care of all the chores. He will make breakfast for me before I go to work. He
will bring me lunch during lunch break. After work, he will cook dinner for me. He even washed my
garments for
me..."
"Wow!" Amelia cried out in a low voice and could not help ncing at Huxton.
"Keep your voice down!" Scarlett hissed. Seeing that Amelia nodded her head, Scarlett continued,
"It''s not me who forced him to do this but he''s the one insisting on doing so."
Amelia said, "I''m sure you won''t, he really loves you. So naturally, he would be willing to do all these
for you."
Scarlett''s face turned red. "He... he''s not as good as you said!"
If he was not that good, then why was her face be so red?
After Scarlett had recovered a little, she said to Amelia again, "By the way, the reason why we''re
here this time is..."
"Amelia, can I sit here?" An abrupt voice interrupted the conversation but no one was bothered by it.
"Of course you may, Owen." Amelia smiled.
Scarlett took a nce at Owen and decided that she could keep her words forter.
When Owen sat on the left side of Amelia, Patrick came over unwillingly and sat down on Amelia''s
right.
