Chapter 736

After Pauline left, Patrick's attention immediately fell onto the magazine on the dinner table. His intuition told him that Sissi's gaffe had something to do with that.

On the other side, Lindsay led Sissi to the bathroom while Sissi tried to recollect herself.

And though her hair and her back were wet and sticky from the spilt drinks, she still insisted on maintaining her elegance.

"Sissi, I'm so sorry. I didn't know you would raise your head so suddenly. Otherwise, I would have put the drink far away."

On their way to the toilet, Lindsay kept apologizing to her. Sissi was annoyed to the extreme, but she could not allow herself to show it. So, she could only reply magnanimously, "It's okay, just be more careful in the future."

Before entering the bathroom, Sissi and Lindsay met Amelia at the door.

Amelia looked relaxed as if she had done solving her own problem. And when she saw them, she greeted them with a smile, "Hey!"

Lindsay glanced at Amelia with a pique look. "Hey?

Get out of our way! Can't you see we need the toilet?"

Amelia then lightly brushed the tip of her nose and muttered aggrievedly in a soft voice, "What's going on? Did I offend you?"

Her words were 'accidentally' overheard by Sissi, whose eyes glinted, and she said to Amelia kindly, "Ms. Ramsay, my colleague has a little bit of a temper, but she means no malice."

"Well, I know..." Amelia waved her hand, showing nonchalance. "Don't you guys need the toilet? I won't disturb you any longer."

And with that, Amelia looked away and brushed past them.

Lindsay snorted at Amelia's fading figure and then said to Sissi, who was lost in her thoughts, "Sissi, look at her and her arrogant attitude. She's so annoying!"

Sissi stared at Lindsay with confusion. "What made you think she's arrogant?"
