Chapter 960

He had already given her a chance to come clean. Since she had no intention to tell him, he could wait until his brother came back and demanded for an answer from him.

Amelia felt as if Patrick could read her mind when he glanced at her. However, in the next second, she heard Patrick saying, "I just want to trick you. If you ever hide any secrets from me, you wouldn't have plausibly spoken to me as if you are justified. In the worst scenario, even if in reality you're engaged in something unspeakable behind me, I would have already known it by now. There's nothing I wouldn't know about you."

Patrick's narcissism was right in the play.

In fact, this time Amelia did not find his arrogance annoying. A stuck-up person would have been ignorant in details. This was exactly what she wanted to see from him.

Heaving a sigh of relief, she said, "I need to run through the kids' homework now. I'll go first."

With that said, Amelia bypassed him in an attempt to head to the spiral staircase.

However, in the next second, Patrick shifted his body sideways. As a result of this, he had successfully blocked her way.

The distance between her and Patrick was so close that she was forced to halt in order to prevent bumping into him. Glancing up, she grumbled, "What's the matter again this time?" Patrick murmured, "You seem to forget that I'm here under Nora's order to show you the way."

Amelia said, "I don't need you to show me the way. I know which room that Andrew and Ashley are staying and I know how to go there. I would rather you stop following me from now onwards."

He had been following closely behind her all day. Along with his intimate behavior from time to time, Amelia could feel that she fell for his charm again ever since she had declared to herself that she was not going to be anymore.

She was aware that this would pose a threat to her determination to become estranged from Patrick!

Patrick's appearance alone was hard for anyone to resist, not to mention that he had been showing his affection on purpose. Everything of him that came in a bundle had made her extremely vulnerable! Her sound mind was warning her to stay as far as possible away from the charm of this dangerously good-looking man.

Patrick's intensified gaze fell onto Amelia's gloomy face. He said, "Are you now depriving me of my privilege to express my concern towards their study as their uncle?"

Amelia was utterly dumbfounded.

She was not sure if there was any more appropriate word to describe her feeling at this moment.
