Chapter 254

In the evening, on the Land of Fragrance.

Amelia returned home with mixed feelings. As she took off her heels with her back to the living room, Patrick came in her direction, enveloping her in his shadow.

Amelia's nose sniffed at the scent of tobacco that belonged exclusively to him, and she silently changed her shoes to see what he wanted.

Patrick stared at the back of her head, his voice serious, "Didn't I tell you to stay home? Why are you so late?"

Amelia turned back only to realize how close they were, her lips accidentally grazing his collar, leaving a shallow lip print.

She stepped back a little to buy herself space where she could escape, "A college friend of mine suddenly came over to see me, and I came back with her after shopping for makeup."

Patrick narrowed his eyes as if guessing at the truth of her words.

Amelia asked him back, "What about you, spending the whole day shopping with Cynthia?"

Patrick nodded slightly. "Yes."

He was honest. Amelia was too lazy to ask anything else. She bypassed Patrick and said, "I'm going to cook."

Patrick couldn't help but reach out and hold her as he saw her looking listless with her head down and explained, "On the 21 st of this month, Cynthia will be flying to the U.S. for in-depth treatment, after which will send her to Germany to study fashion design, and if all goes well, she may never return to Northville."

Amelia was stunned.

Patrick continued, "I went shopping with her today to buy some essentials that are not available abroad, nothing more."
