Chapter 923
As she lowered her head and put away the trash can, Amelia reached out to pick up the scrunched-
up paper ball. She stood up and smiled at Patrick, who had just recovered from his surprise. ''Alright,
I''ve found what I want. Good night and no need to see me off."
Just as she turned around and walked away, Patrick suddenly stood up from his chair and the trash
on him fell to the floor.
He frowned as he endured the dirt on his body, and strode to the woman who was approaching the
door.
Just as Amelia opened the door, Patrick caught up with her, stretched out his long arm, and
wrapped her hand that was holding the door handle. He pushed in the opposite direction, and the
door that had just opened mmed shut.
Amelia''s back was facing him. She shook her hand and said unhappily, "Let me go! Don''t forget
what our rtionship is now!"
Patrick shamelessly loomed up to her, lowered his head, stared at her face, and said, "You made
me like this, and want to leave without an exnation? Anyway, you should give me an exnation,
shouldn''t you?"
Amelia felt Patrick''s breath on her neck, which made her face a little red. She could not help saying,
"You want an exnation, right? Let go of your hand first, and I will turn around to talk to you."
Patrick was persuaded by her gentle and soft voice, and he could not help loosening his grip.
Amelia indeed obeyed and turned back.
Due to the close distance between the two of them, when Amelia turned around, her clothes would
inevitably rub off some of the dirt on his chest. She could not help but say in disgust, "Can you stay
a little further away from me?"
Patrick raised his eyebrows and said, "No, it''s your masterpiece. I shoulde closer to you so that
you can appreciate it!"
"No, don''te over..." Amelia''s cute eyes widened, and she instinctively reached out her arm to
block.
As a result, she ced her palm on a lump of filth. She wanted to cry as she felt the stickiness and
moistness on her palm. She asked unpleasantly, "What did you throw in the trash can? It''s
disgusting!"
Patrick was not too pleased. He did not forget who gave him this mess. "How could the things in the
trash can not be disgusting? Maybe the smudge in
your hand is the snot I wiped off yesterday."
What the f*ck!
Although Amelia knew that to arge extent Patrick was joking, she was still disgusted. She stared
at him and said, "You are the president of Roxxon, can''t you say something ssier?"
To use such a handsome face to say such disgusting words was really a riot. Amelia could not help
but criticize him internally.

Patrick snorted and said, "It''s time for me to settle the score with you. How dare you me me for
making me like this?"
Although Amelia was short, she did not want to lose. She stood on tiptoes and said, "It was you who
provoked the quarrel first! If you didn''t throw away my renting details, why would I treat you like I did
just now?"
There was a sh of anger on Patrick''s face. He poked Amelia''s head with a finger and said, "That''s
why I said that you''re silly! Who would benefit the most from it if I throw it away, huh?!"
Amelia was frowning. Eventually, she could not help but wave his hand away and covered her
eyebrows. "You would benefit from throwing away my rent details! Because I have to spend time
and energy to make a new one. But it''s understandable because torturing me is the greatest
pleasure for you
currently."
Honestly speaking, it was neither difficult nor easy to make such a thing. She went to the
management office yesterday and inquired about everything in detail to collect information. Patrick,
on the other hand, just threw it away. Was all the effort she put in nothing?
Patrick''s face darkened after he heard what Amelia said. "Am I a sadist in your heart? Does it mean
that you have forgotten all my kindness to you in the past?"
Throwing away the rent details was because he did not want Amelia to be estranged from him.
When a person lost their mind, they would always resort to saying harsh words. The words he said
that day were obviously out of anger. Why did she have to take it so seriously?
In Patrick''s subconscious, he refused to believe that Amelia wanted to divorce him. He thought that
as long as he treated her a little better, she would ept it and forget the harm he had brought to
her.
Amelia gave him a serious look and said, "That was in the past. But in fact, for us, the most
important thing is not the past, but the future! Everyone knows the past. To be honest, have I not
treated you well in the past? I used to be good to you! But in the future... I swear, I will not treat you
as well as before.
So, just take it as a request from me, don''t talk about the petty things from the past. To be honest,
the harm you have done to me is far more than what you have given to me."
After that, Amelia pushed him away, turned around, and opened the door with her only clean hand,
and left.
The door mmed shut over Patrick''s embarrassed face, like a p to the face.
In the guest bedroom.
After returning to her room, Amelia washed her hands and took out the rent details that had been
crumpled into a ball from her pocket.
After she unfolded it, Amelia pasted it on the bedside table with tape. It was the most eyecatching
ce. She could see it every day after she woke up and before going to bed.
This not only reminded her to pay the rent on time but also reminded her to keep her distance from
Patrick!
"Don''t fall for it anymore, Amelia." Amelia warned herself.
Amelia said these words in a volume that only she could hear. She felt that her heart was horribly
empty. Something important seemed to be going away along with her words.
She tried hard to stop herself from thinking about the reason, but Patrick''s face appeared in her
mind.
She frowned in frustration and rushed into the bathroom to wash her face.
After calming down, Amelia stared at her own reflection in the mirror. She consoled herself that
everything would take time. She could not say that she did not love him anymore and stopped
loving him, but she would work hard.
Yes, she would work hard...
Two dayster, Saturday.
Amelia changed into a set of decent clothes in the room. She did not wear perfume or makeup and
got ready to go.
The reason why Amelia did not specially dress herself up was not that she did not love beauty, but
because Kaiden had warned her that Sawyer did not like women to do these during the banquet.
To make Sawyer, who was the ''big daddy'' happy, the only thing Amelia had to do was to keep it
simple.
