Amelia fastened the ribbon on her bathrobe firmly while staring at him, "What the matter?"
Upon hearing this, Patrick frowned.
Because as his wife, the first words she said to him was not soft "you're back" but indifferent "what's the matter".
He restrained his displeasure and asked as usual, "When did you come back?"
Looking at him, Amelia thought of his indifferent expression at the birthday banquet and felt sad. Then she looked away and said shortly, "Just now."
Seeing that Amelia was unwilling to look at him, Patrick was unhappier. Then he asked, "Did you stay in the police station for such a long time?"
As soon as Amelia left the police station, the police contacted Patrick immediately. It was unreasonable for her to come back so late, unless...
At the thought of that possibility, his heart sank.
Amelia did not know that Patrick knew when she came out of the police station. She walked past him and said perfunctorily, "Yes, they interrogated me and gave me a lecture. Time really flies."
Little liar!
Patrick clenched his fists. He looked back at her charming figure and saw her beautiful long hair. It was so attractive that he was obsessed.
When he continued to look down, he was stunned. Because the black dress he carefully chose for her was thrown beside her feet!
Without being worn by Amelia, the dress looked no more beautiful no matter how much luxurious and precious jewelry were on it.
What's more, the dress was completely ruined, because it was torn apart.
Patrick bent down and picked up the dress. Then he looked at Amelia's nervous face and asked gloomily, "Mrs. Hopper, can you explain what had happened to me?"
Amelia didn't know what to say, because she didn't want to implicate Milton.
So she said regardless, "I snagged it by accident."
Patrick spread the long dress and looked at it carefully, "What snagged your dress? It has become a cheongsam!"
Amelia said against her conscience, "It has a bad quality and could be torn apart so easily..."
D*mn, she spilled the beans!
Patrick stared at Amelia who was regretful and said doubtfully, "So it was torn by someone?"
Amelia pretended to be calm and said, "Yeah, I tore it apart! Do you really think that I will treasure this kind of second-hand dress?"
With this, she took a bottle of face cream from the bedside table and pretended to be busy with skincare, waiting for him to lose his patience and leave.
However, Patrick was not only patient, but also very careful, "Shouldn't you apply the toner before applying the face cream to your face?"
What the f*ck!
Amelia stared at Patrick and said deliberately, "I like to apply face cream to my face first!"
She was so excited that she squeezed out a lot face cream. Her heart broken because the face cream was so expensive!
