Chapter 389

When almost everyone was concerned about Eve's condition, Amelia stood alone in a quiet corner, lost in thought.

Howard glanced at her and found that she was in a daze. He could not help but come up to her and ask, "Amelia, what are you thinking about?" Hearing his voice, Amelia collected her thoughts quickly.

Looking at Howard's experienced, calm eyes, she blurted out her worries, "I was wondering if I have done the wrong thing."

Howard was surprised. "Why do you think so?"

Distressed, Amelia replied, "Because everyone around me told me that I did the wrong things."

After a moment's silence, Howard said gently, "Both you and Patrick were right. You were just looking at the thing from different perspectives. Understandably, he was protecting his mother, and you were concerned about your friends."

Amelia was suddenly relieved at that. But then she was a little discouraged again at the thought of Jessica's attitude toward her. "But the friend who I've tried my best to protect blamed me for not telling her the truth in advance."

Howard sighed. "This is the first time I've seen Jessica. Jocelyn talks about her from time to time. According to Jocelyn, I thought that kid would be very reasonable. I didn't expect her to say something so disappointing today. I can see that she's very selfish. You've done so much for her, but she is heartless and lays the blame on you. Why do you have to punish yourself with others' faults?"

Amelia said sadly, "Jessica has been my friend for many years. I'm sure she is a good person." She sighed. "In the end, it's because I couldn't help her."

Just as Howard was about to comfort her by saying "you've tried", he heard a cold voice behind him, "Mom tried to kill herself by taking pills, and you were having a good chat here."

Amelia and Howard turned to the source of the voice and found Patrick curling his lips sarcastically.
