Chapter 241

"Mrs. Hopper... "Seeing that Amelia would not look at him, Patrick could only go to her bedside and call her gently.

The scene of her fainting was so scary that he didn't want to repeat it again.

"I'm very tired. You let me sleep for a while." Amelia told him perfunctorily.

"Don't go to sleep yet, give me some time to clarify the truth." There was obviously a chair nearby, but Patrick crouched right down to the floor so he could be flush with her in the bed.

Amelia saw Patrick's humble gesture and she shifted her indifference slightly, "Go ahead."

"Look at this," Patrick handed Amelia the examination report in his hand, "It's Cherry's physical. She's still a virgin and I didn't even touch her last night."

Amelia froze and didn't take the report. She just stared at the anxious-looking man in front of her nervously.

"What's wrong? So you still don't believe me?" Patrick mistakenly thought that Amelia wouldn't even read the examination report, and he stubbornly says, "If you don't read it, I'll read it to you word for word!" Amelia raised her hand to slap away the examination report, blinked her teary eyes, and cried and laughed at Patrick, "You silly man!"

Patrick didn't get angry at being scolded like that, just naturally opened his arms around Amelia who came to him, kissed her forehead and said softly, "You are a silly woman as well."

Amelia's frustration, anger, fear and grievance these days were now released in Patrick's arms as she gripped his suit jacket tightly in her delicate hands and wailed.

Patrick spoke with both pity and confusion, "I've proven my innocence, why are you still crying so much? Okay, don't cry, I'm afraid you'll break your body with crying so hard." There was a time when Patrick felt that Amelia was an impenetrable wall and that no matter how much pressure he put on it or how much he destroyed it, she would always stand.
