Chapter 358

She made up her mind and told him how she had run into Tommy's scandal and how she had been threatened by Tommy. Facing Patrick's tense face, she asked sadly, "Do you believe what I said?" Patrick turned off the sprinkler immediately and narrowed his eyes. He believed most of her words, but deep down, he still had doubts.

"Why didn't you tell me such a serious thing?"

Amelia closed her eyes to hide the dense grievance in them. "I went to the office this afternoon to look for you."

"When?" Patrick didn't believe it at all. He had been in the office the whole afternoon, so he would have known if Amelia had been there.

Amelia looked up at him, her eyes sparkling as if something was going to run down. "When I got off work. After answering Tommy's phone call, I immediately went upstairs to get you. But I heard that you were calling Cynthia..."

"Did you run away just because I was on the phone with Cynthia? Amelia, you..."

Patrick stopped his reprimand and seemed to think of something. His handsome face changed.

Amelia nodded.

Patrick looked at her with regret. With his strong arms, he scooped her up from the bathtub and brought her to his arms. He placed his warm, large palm on the back of her head that was wet with water and sighed, "I was giving Cynthia the runaround. You're never been a nobody to me. You're my woman, my wife."
