Chapter 654

Narrowing his eyes, Patrick murmured, "Are you sure you want me to tell you where I was last night?"

Amelia had a bad feeling about where this was heading. Sure enough, Patrick said in the next second, "I went to..."

After a moment of subtle pause, he added on jeeringly, "Tell me, what's the most probable reason for an ordinary man to stay out all night and not return?"

Amelia's hands clenched into fists, wanting to throw a few punches to his face incredibly badly. So, he even had a reason for not coming home?

Watching her as her blood rushed to her head, his suppressed anger relieved a little.

He leaned forward to close the distance between them. But this time, he did not come forward for a hug. Instead, he further wounded her. "You haven't got a clue, have you? Alright then, I'll tell you. I spent the night at Royal Joy Club."

"You!" Amelia's breath stuck in her chest, and the whites of her eyes turned red.

Regardless of whether he was telling the truth, it could not be mistaken that scent emanating from

his body was from a woman's perfume!

Flashing a devilish smirk, Patrick bored straight into her eyes as he asked, "Are you angry?"

After a pause, the indication of a smirk in his eyes faded. His thin lips then spat with bone-chilling coldness, "Do you have the right to get mad? Shouldn't a wife who can't satisfy her husband feel ashamed?" Amelia glared daggers at him, feeling so enraged that her heart throbbed in her ribcage. "You..."

"B*stard? Garbage? Thug?" Patrick finished the rest of her sentence for her.

Amelia chuckled out of extreme ire. "Good that you're so self-aware!"

Overlooking all trace of sadness and disappointment on her face, Patrick hissed wickedly, "And so what? So long as I'm happy."

He was right. He had both influence and power, and was also a handsome, young man. Women of all background from all places were more than eager to please him!
