Chapter 1608

"Bro Richard, have you received the video of Brittany?" asked Richard as he ate breakfast.

Patrick, who was also in the middle of breakfast, replied softly, "Well done. Keep it up."

Richard gasped in a low voice, "Keep it up? I almost killed her."

To which Patrick only answered casually, "Give her a break for the meantime then."

"Okay, then I won't bother you now. I'll report to you if anything happens," said Richard.

"Okay, I'll hang up first." After the call, Patrick cast a glance at Amelia, who was so focused on eating breakfast that she did not notice what happened.

Then, Patrick considered showing her the video of Brittany. But upon second thought, he realized that it would be best not to bring up Brittany's devastating state to disrupt Amelia's mood. Moreover, he had not done any harm to Brittany physically.

With this thought in mind, Patrick gave up the idea and deleted the video that he just watched before putting his phone aside.

Ten minutes later.

Patrick put down his napkin and said to Amelia, "Amy, I'm full."

Amelia nodded. She then said to Patrick, who was about to get up to go to work, "By the way, Milton's visiting us today. Do you... mind?"

"What?" Patrick was slightly stunned. "Isn't he in England?" Patrick thought to himself.

Amelia explained, "Um, he told me on the phone last night that he's bringing Maryanne back to visit her family and that he'll visit his friends at the same time."

Patrick's expression changed slightly. Then he replied with seeming generosity, "Okay. You two should have a lot to talk about when you guys meet up."

He thought he had concealed it well, but the sourness in his words was still apparent.

Amelia stepped forward and held his hands with a hint of a smile in her bright, large eyes. "But I have more to talk about with you. Don't you think so?"

Patrick snorted. At this moment, being mature meant nothing to him at all, as shown by his childish reaction. "Amy, remember that you're married! If you dare to do anything that will hurt me, be careful that I'll....."

Then, he buried his attractive face in her neck and bit her gently.

Amelia felt helpless and told him, "All right, all right. Stop acting cute."
