Caught off guard, Mamie hurried to explain, "I...
Since she could say 'I love you' to a man she had just met less than a day, I could not help but have that feeling."
Patrick could not sit still any longer. He stood up, rushed to Amelia, and grabbed her by the arm before forcing her out of the room under everyone's gaze!
After witnessing what Patrick had done, dozens of people in the room all looked incredulous!
Manager Ramsay had just declared her love for Timothy, and then Mr. Hopper rushed over to take her away as if he was going to fight someone. Was there a love triangle?
Only Doris nodded contentedly. "Well... Mr. Hopper finally can't bear it and make a move!"
In the corridor, Patrick snatched the room card from a passing waiter. Looking at the spooked look on the waiter's face, he said, "Tell your manager that it was Patrick who took your card."
After that, without casting him another look, Patrick swiped the card to get into the nearest room.
A second later, a beep sound came from the door, indicating that the room was unlocked.
Patrick opened the door and pushed Amelia, who kept struggling but unable to break free, into the room.
Amelia quickly held on to the nearby wall. After stabilizing herself, she looked back at Patrick, who was walking towards her like a leopard, and asked warily, "What... What are you doing? We are outside. The nearby room is full of employees of Roxxon. Don't do anything stupid!"
Patrick took off his tie and looked at her gloomily. "What else do you think a man and a woman in the same room will do?"
"Patrick, you..."
Before she would manage the words "calm down", Patrick interrupted her with a low roar. "You d*mn woman! How dare you flirted with another man in front of me and even said you love him? That was unforgivable!"
Amelia felt wronged and said, "I'm not the one who proposed it. Why are you be so angry with me?"
Patrick was even angrier realizing that she refused to admit she was wrong. "Tell me. Did you touch his chin with your hand?"
Frightened by his berserk side, Amelia took a step back and said timidly, "I have my reason..." "Tell me. Yes or no?" The jealousy he had been enduring over the whole night finally resulted in his loss of control, which even Patrick himself was a little surprised!
It seemed that as long as he was together with her, his reason would totally disappear. If she still refused to admit her fault now, it might get worse.
Amelia's big eyes were full of innocence. In the face of the man who would only listen to the result instead of the process, she admitted with frustration, "Yes. I lifted his chin with my index finger."
But she did that only because she was trying to prove what Timothy had said was wrong! And the effect was better than she had expected. Timothy was scared out of his wits by her reaction, and she had completely won in the flirting.
After Timothy returned to the room, he had been hiding far away from Amelia. The young man must have been terrified by her bold behavior.
But Patrick didn't think so. All he wanted now was breaking Timothy's chin, but the premise was to teach this arrogant woman a lesson first.
"Amelia, I'm warning you. You are my wife. You will never hook up with other men in the rest of your life, not to mention touching them!"
"Patrick, does it feel good to accuse me like that? I'd like to discuss what happened between you, Mamie, and Leslie! You could be so intimate with them while I'm not allowed to..."
There was indescribable pain in his eyes when he looked at her as if admitting his feelings for her was something unacceptable to him.
An important part of the reason Patrick felt this way was related to Sissi, his first love. Patrick had loved her so much that before he married Amelia, and he was even ready to be single for the rest of his life.
As a result, when he realized his strange feeling towards Amelia, Patrick had struggled... and hesitated... and had even jumped to the conclusion that the feeling was the desire for Amelia's body...
But as time went by, they got along day by day and became closer and closer. He had to admit that in addition to Sissi, Amelia was the woman he cared most about.
Hearing his word, Amelia looked up at him through her long eyelashes and said with a bitter smile, "If I could play a trick on you, it wouldn't be so bitter for me to love you."
After that, under his stunned gaze, she looked down, walked past him, reached out to open the door of the room, and left.
What did she say?
Patrick carefully recalled her last sentence before she left and finally made sure that it was true...
She had admitted that she loved him!
The next day.
When Amelia woke up from the bed, the man next to her was already gone. Recalling the chaos of what had happened to her last night, she reached out to tousle her hair as if she was to vent her anger before she removed the quilt and got out of bed to wash up.
