Chapter 620

"Really? Why didn't I feel it?" Dr. Scarlett blurted out.

Amelia was confused.

Astounded by her own stupidity, Dr. Scarlett scrambled to explain herself, "No, what I meant to say was... I didn't feel the gun when he pressed onto me! F*ck! That's not right, I'm not close with him at all! Not a all! Do you understand me?"

After snarling at Amelia, Dr. Scarlett hid her face and ran away.

Amelia blinked innocently as Dr. Scarlett scurried and was curious because she did not even say anything.

Tearing her attention away from Dr. Scarlett, Amelia lowered her head and adjusted her collar to ensure that what should remain covered was still hidden. Then, she walked downstairs.

She felt discomfort in her legs as she descended from time to time. But she did not want Patrick to look down on her, so she pretended as if all was fine and showed up on the first floor.

Actually, Patrick had his eyes on Amelia since the moment she stepped out of her bedroom. With that being said, he could not wrap his head around exactly what did Dr. Scarlett say to Amelia to make her guffaw so loudly just a moment ago.

Refusing to believe it was jealousy that he was feeling, he closed the magazine shut crudely and chucked it aside with a flick of his wrist. Then, he got up from the sofa and strode to the kitchen with his hands in his pockets.

Amelia frowned. She did not want to go the same way as him, but her stomach had been growling at her for a while.

She bit her lower lip. No matter how badly she wanted to turn back to where she came from right then and there, she could not let herself starve just because of this.

Patrick knew that she would contemplate this train of thought, so he chose to walk towards the kitchen exactly when she began to go down the stairs because that seemed to be the only place where both of them would be together.

She outright refused to have dinner with Patrick alone, so Amelia asked Dr. Scarlett, who was still sulking by the side, "Dr. Scarlett, did you have dinner before you came here?"
