Chapter 1708

"Hmm?" Amelia said softly. She could not understand why Patrick did not know about George and Alice.

Then, Owen explained, "Amelia, after you were kidnapped, Patrick suggested exchanging himself for you to Sawyer."

"Gramps and I were afraid that he would do something stupid, so we confiscated all his communication tools. In addition, gramps also sent several troops of special forces to Land of Fragrance."

"Anyone who entered and exited Land of Fragrance had to go through a thorough search and interrogation. By these strict rules, Patrick knew lesser about the outside world."

"Besides, he was not in the mood to pay attention to anything other than you. So, let me tell you how Uncle George and Aunt Alice are doing recently."

At the sound of this, Amelia immediately turned to Patrick and said with disapproval, "Mr. Hopper, how can you take your life? Fortunately, Owen and gramps stopped you in time, or you would be screwed!"

Patrick was speechless. "Amy, I..."

"That's enough, Amelia." Owen helped to ease the situation. "Patrick was worried about you. Every time something happens to you, he's always the most anxious one. Furthermore, men in a desperate plight will do anything. Please understand him."

Patrick added, "That's right, Amy. You were kidnapped, so how could I remain rational? I'm not a prohet who can predict the future, nor a monk who can always keep calm. I'm just an ordinary man."

Amelia was touched by Patrick's honest words and her voice softened, "Mr. Hopper, I'm back now. You don't have to worry about me anymore."

"Well, I won't let you get out of my sight again. Not even for a second." After that, Patrick leaned over and kissed her forehead.

Then, Amelia heard Owen say, "A week ago, I went to the hospital to visit Uncle George. The doctor said that Uncle George's condition has improved miraculously. He also said that if there's no sudden occurence, Uncle George should be able to speak and walk in a short time."

After the shock, Amelia revealed a surprised smile.

"Really?" She hurriedly questioned Owen for confirmation. "Owen, are you sure you didn't mishear?"

Owen scratched his head and reassured with a smile, "The doctor told me that. It had to be true, right?"

Amelia turned back to grab Patrick's hand and said with a tearful grin, "Mr. Hopper, the medicine you gave my dad must have worked. Thank you! Thank you so much!"

Infected by her elation, Patrick smiled and said, "According to the weekly treatment course, with a total of sixteen treatments, the toxins in Dad's body have been removed. All there's left is for him to recover. I believe he'll heal soon."

Amelia listened to the inflow of good news and felt joy. She blinked her reddened eyes and repeatedly thanked Patrick.

"Silly girl." Patrick touched Amelia's hair and said lovingly, "I've told you many times. You don't need to thank me."

"Thank you, Owen!" Amelia exclaimed as she leant to the side happily and said, who was leaning against the porthole, "Owen, thank you for visiting my father and Aunt Alice when I was unable to fulfil my filial piety. You also brought me such good news!"
