Chapter 1670

The incident at the church had been put to a pause. Without minding how the media would report it, The Hopper Family had their attention all focused on Patrick's injury at the moment.

"How is Patrick?" Owen, who accompanied Gramps Hopper to the hospital, asked the members outside the operating room.

Florence, who had yet to recover from the shock, answered,"... Patrick's left chest was stabbed. But he dodged in time fortunately, so his heart was not hurt. Now the doctor is taking out the scalpel for him. It should be like this, right Nora?"

She looked a little dazed as she asked Nora beside her.

Nora nodded as she heard this. "The doctor said that Patrick's injury is not life- threatening and we shall not worry too much."

Granny Hopper, who had been staring at the operating room, turned around at this time with her eyes red. "Owen, what is going on? How could Amelia do such a thing?!"

"Granny, calm down first. The incident may sound a little beyond your imagination. But in fact, the woman standing beside Patrick is not Amelia, but someone deliberately pretending to be her."

"What?!" Granny Hopper, Howard, Nora and Florence all shouted in surprise.

"I know your doubts so I'll explain everything to you one by one. Regarding the incident, I shall start with Mom. She made a deal with Sawyer in private. She brought a fake 'Amelia' into the church, and then exchange the two in the lounge while managing to hide it from the security guards. Of course, they succeeded since no one would doubt that the 'Amelia' they saw was fake, including us. Meanwhile, the real Amelia was already sent out of the church through emergency access by Mom and was taken away by Sawyer."

"She actually collaborated with Sawyer to separate Patrick and Amelia?!" Florence felt it absolutely ridiculous and absurd!

The most ridiculous thing was that she had asked Amelia and Patrick to give Eve another chance. Since Amelia had been in the hands of the enemy, she wondered if...

She suddenly felt a mental breakdown. It made her want to immediately confront with Eve. "Owen, where's Mom?!"

"I detained her in the police station." Owen answered.

"Phew!" Florence let out a heavy sigh. It was not because Eve had been detained, but because she was unable to accept the truth.

So Eve's reconciliation with her that day was totally a foundation for the final conspiracy?

The feeling of being taken advantage of in a cruel way made her both sick and sad. She swore that she would never believe any of Eve's words again!

Nora asked in a more rational manner, "Honey, what else did Mom say? Did she talk about where Sawyer has taken Amelia to?"

Owen replied truthfully, "Mom said that she doesn't know about it. She had only wanted Sawyer to destroy Patrick's wedding and secretly kill Amelia. Other than that, she seemed not to show concern."

Howard frowned and said, "If that's the case, Amelia should be in danger now! Owen, you must immediately lock down Northville and send all men to search for Amelia. You should not spare Sawyer any chance to escape!"

Owen nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry. I've already given the orders. Once there's any result, my men will inform me immediately."

During the conversation, the operating room door was opened.

Everyone immediately fell silent and nervously watched the doctor and nurse push Patrick out.

"The surgery was successful, but the patient is still under anesthesia. We're going to take him to the ward and let him have a good rest." said the attending doctor.

The Hopper Family had no objection regarding that.

Patrick did not sleep well. He dreamed about himself and Amelia in the church. When he was about to put the wedding ring on Amelia, her hands began to become transparent, followed by her arms, her body, and finally her face...
