Chapter 157
Chapter 157
Amelia wanted to tease Patrick, so she blinked her eyes and said playfully, "I will tell him the truth, because.. I am really free now."
Patrick turned a little unhappy, "Didn't you say that you're going to work all night?"
Amelia said unconcernedly, "Work is endless. I can't just focus on my work all day and don't know how to enjoy my life."
Upon hearing this, Patrick got angry. He strode forward and stood in front of her.
He lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Amelia, you said that you would stay at home and accompany me!"
Hearing his angry words, she suddenly smiled and said with mischief, "Okay, Mr. Hopper."
It was only then that Patrick realized that he had been fooled by her!
He was a little annoyed and begun to tickle her, "You're so naughty!"
However, Amelia couldn't laugh. She begged for mercy, "Stop! It hurts..."
Patrick didn't believe what she said. He still tickled her waist overbearingly, "Do you want to kid me again?"
Amelia bit her lip hard and almost told him that she was injured. Then her cell phone fell on the carpet.
Patrick stopped tickling her and picked up the phone on the ground. When he touched the screen, he saw George's name on it.
He gave the phone to Amelia and said, "It's your father."
Amelia breathed a sigh of relief. She walked to the window and called back George.
Seeing that Amelia subconsciously avoided him, Patrick's eyes turned a little cold.
Beep-
"Amelia..." George's voice sounded depressed on the phone, "I have something to ask you right now. Come to the Hopper Family quickly."
"The Hopper Family?" Amelia frowned and repeated. She thought George had said the wrong address.
However, George said, "Yes! I'm here waiting for you."
Before Amelia could ask him more, he had hung up the phone.
Amelia felt so strange in her heart.
Every time George called her, he always talked a lot. He never said such a few words. Most importantly, why was he in the Hopper Family?
Could it be that... Eve got angry with George because she couldn't get pregnant with Patrick's child?
Amelia held the phone tightly. With Eve's bad temper, it was not impossible!
"What did dad say?" Patrick's voice made Amelia come to sense.
Amelia looked at him uneasily and said, "He wants me to see him in the Hopper Family now."

Even Patrick did not know what George's words meant.
He was so worried about Amelia that he said, 'TH go back with you."
In the Hopper Family.
Eve glanced at the wall clock on the wall and snorted discontentedly, "Look, it's so late! But they haven't come yet."
Alice explained softly, "Maybe there's traffic jam on the road."
Eve looked at Alice with confusion. Alice was Amelia's stepmother, but she was so calm after she knew that Amelia seduced her biological daughter's fiance. She was not angry at all.
In fact, Alice didn't think too much, because she believed that Amelia would never do something to damage the reputation of The Ramsay Family with Daniel.
Just as Eve gradually lost her patience, the servant led Daniel to them. There was a smile on Daniel's face, which gave people a good feeling.
"Dad, mom." Daniel called George and Alice at first, and he turned his head to greet Howard and Eve, "Hi, Uncle Howard, Aunt Eve."
"Daniel, sit down please." Before Howard figured out the truth, he would like to treat Daniel politely.
Eve glanced at Daniel disdainfully. She thought that
Daniel was ridiculous because he had ambiguous relationships with the two daughters of the Ramsay Family.
Daniel nodded. When he sat down, he happened to see the photos on the tea table. His expression didn't change, but he felt uneasy in his heart.
Half an hour later—
Amelia and Patrick came late. Eve wanted to satirize Amelia, but when she thought that it was Patrick who sent her here, she gave up the idea because she didn't want to blame her own son.
"Now that they are all here, let's come straight to the point." Eve pointed at the photo and raised her eyebrows at Amelia, beckoning to her to see it herself.
When Amelia saw the photo of her and Daniel, she was shocked and then became extremely angry.
Eve actually asked someone to follow her and even took pictures when she stayed with a man!
At this moment, she felt that Patrick was glaring at her with unhappy eyes.
She turned her face, only to see that Patrick's eyes were calm. There was no emotion in his eyes as if what she had felt was wrong.
But the more silent he was, the more nervous she became.
Eve looked at Amelia aggressively, "What do you want to say about these photos?"
Amelia glanced at Daniel, and then quickly looked away. She took a deep breath and said, "Mom, this is a misunderstanding."
After hearing Amelia's words, George's stiff face eased a lot. He had always believed that Amelia would not do anything that would disappoint him.
Eve said with a fake smile, "Oh? Since it's a misunderstanding, can you explain?"
Amelia recalled it seriously and said, "Yesterday morning, a car accidentally ran into my electrical bicycle. The car owner asked her friend Daniel to come to help me. So Daniel and I met by chance."
Seeing that Eve didn't believe her, Amelia smiled and said, "Mom, since the person who followed me took photos of me and Daniel, he must have witnessed the accident on my way. If you think that
I'm making up a story deliberately, why don't you call the person who followed me and ask him?"
Eve said in a harsh voice, "I don't care if you had an accident or not. What I want to hear is your explanation for these intimate behaviors! Before Daniel got engaged to your sister, he was your boyfriend. It's possible for you to rekindle the past romance after you met on the road."
Amelia laughed, "If I want to rekindle the past romance with Daniel, I can be single all the time. Why should I marry Patrick? Am I not afraid of being criticized by the Hopper Family after rekindling?"
Although Amelia's words were quite reasonable, Patrick felt rather uncomfortable.
When the atmosphere was tense, Daniel said, "Aunt Eve, Amelia is telling the truth. Because my friend suddenly had something to do, I helped Amelia send her car to the garage."
