Amelia glare at Patrick with her mouth puckered, like a little rabbit who was bullied but didn't dare get angry. Seeing her like this, Patrick was amused. He lay on the bed, reached out and pulled her arm, "Accompany me to sleep."
Amelia glared at him and said, "Are you a child? Do you need me to kiss you, hug you and then change a diaper for you?"
"If you want to kiss me and hug me, I don't mind, because we're husband and wife. As for changing the diaper..." Patrick said shamelessly, "Maybe it's too early now. When I can't get out of bed in my seventies or eighties, please help me with that."
Amelia knew that he was joking, but her heart was touched.
If she could spend the rest of her life with him, it would be a good idea.
Patrick waited for her answer for a long time, but she didn't say anything. He thought she was unwilling to grow old with him and felt a little annoyed. This kind of uncontrollable emotion made him want to lose his temper.
Fortunately, Amelia's next move comforted him miraculously.
She put her head on his chest, and her soft hair fanned out over his fingers. He couldn't see her expression clearly in this posture, but her soft voice touched his heart.
"I'm willing to take care of you when you get old. As long as you don't mind."
With Amelia in his arms, Patrick slept so soundly and got up in the afternoon.
He picked up his mobile phone habitually and found that it had been put on vibration mode. It must have been deliberately set up by Amelia because she was worried that he would be disturbed.
Thinking of this, Patrick didn't blame Amelia and felt a little happy in his heart, because she care about him.
Patrick glanced at the screen and found there were more than a dozen missed calls. Some were from the company, some were from the clients, and two were from Owen and Eve.
Patrick called Owen first and said, "I already know who conspired to kidnap Amelia."
Owen asked, "Really? I haven't found out any useful information yet."
Patrick said with a cold face, "It's someone in my company. Owen, you don't have to interfere in this matter. I can solve it by myself."
Owen had always been concerned about Patrick's matters, "Tell me what do you want to do. I can analyze it to you whether it's illegal or not."
Patrick said slowly, "I will do unto her what she did to Amelia."
Owen was silent for a moment and then said, "As long as you don't kill anyone, it's up to you."
After hanging up the phone, the black phone screen lit up again. It turned out that Eve was impatient and called him again.
Patrick pressed the answer button and said, "Mom."
Eve questioned him as soon as the phone was connected, "I called you at noon. Why don't you answer my phone?"
"I was sleeping at noon."
"Well..." Eve said, "I called you because I have something to tell you. I asked Paisley to go shopping with me today and I accidentally took a fancy to a piece of jewelry. It cost more than a hundred thousand dollars. Paisley bought it for me without hesitation."
Patrick was unhappy when he heard that, "Mom, you have lots of private money. Owen, Florence and I transfer money to your account every month. Why do you have to spend her money?"
Eve didn't take it seriously and said, "It was Paisley's filial affection towards me. If I didn't agree, she would be unhappy."
