Chapter 541

Huxton stopped her and said, "Mrs. Hopper, please be careful about your safety."

Amelia thundered furiously, "Go to hell with your safety! It's hard to say whether or not I'll still be alive!"

"Mrs. Hopper, please don't use foul language. Mr. Hopper won't like to hear them," replied Huxton again. Before Amelia lost her temper, Huxton promptly said, "I have other things to attend to. Please excuse me."

When they brushed past each other, Amelia suddenly raised her hand and stopped Huxton. "What's wrong with your face?" Huxton simply answered, "Nothing much."

Amelia glanced at the study and seemed to understand what had happened. "Could it be that you were beaten by Patrick?" Huxton shook his head.

Amelia took as he was upholding his dignity as she snickered and said, "Who asked you to tell on me all day long? You deserve it!" Huxton said in a low voice, "As long as you're happy, Mrs. Hopper."

Seeing his serene face, Amelia was puzzled and asked, "You were beaten, shouldn't you feel angry? Are you a human?"

"I'm a human." After giving her a brief answer, Huxton asked coldly, "Mrs. Hopper, is there anything else you need me to do?"

Amelia puckered her lips in boredom. "It's fine. You have something to do, don't you? Go ahead!"

Huxton descended downstairs.

Amelia hesitated in her spot for a moment, then raised her hand and knocked on the door to the study.

A moment later, a voice sounded from inside, "Come in."

Awkwardly, Amelia turned the doorknob. After all, she had just quarreled with Patrick.

In the study, Patrick heard the sound of the door opening and thought that it was Huxton who had returned. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the tasty prey. With an intrigued smile hanging on the corner of his lips, Patrick sat and watched as the prey slowly approached him, waiting for her to fall into his territory. "What can I do for you?" He still kept his cold tone on the surface.

Amelia's face flushed red all the way down to the base of her neck. She glared at him, speechless, then lowered her eyes to search the drawer more hastily, to get away from this evil man as soon as possible.
