Chapter 664

"You're back?" Patrick, who was waiting for the return of his prey behind the door, glared at Amelia's nervous side profile and greeted her with a jumble of joy and anger.

Amelia turned her stiff neck toward Patrick and gave him a greeting out of guilt. "Hi... you are still not asleep yet?"

Patrick leaned against the door frame and looked down at her. "I can't sleep when you aren't home."

"Oh! I'm so touched!" Amelia pretended to wipe tears away from the corners of her eyes. How she hoped she could squeeze out some drops of tears to better suit the situation right now!

Amelia answered casually, "Nothing much. I just went to the hospital."

Patrick stepped forward, snaked his arm around her waist and pulled her towards him. He brushed her face with his cold breath and said, "You're still lying

"I'm not lying to you." Amelia added frantically, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Huxton."

"Didn't he install a listening bug on me?"
