What was she worthy of favor? If he did not like her then he shouldn't sleep with her anymore!
They shouldn't argue in front of their elders, but her attitude at the moment was bad too.
Patrick immediately got up from the couch and said fiercely, "What did you say, say it again, out loud!"
Amelia stared at him forcefully, "I'm not a repeater, and I won't repeat it again!"
"Stop arguing!" Just as Patrick was about to burst into the fire of irritation, Granny Hopper said, "Patrick, I have more experiences in this world than you have. I can see clearly what kind of person Amelia is when the first time I met her. If you don't like her, then you don't have good taste!"
"Granny..." Amelia was touched, and her crying voice was soft and sweet, which made Granny Hopper's heart melt.
"Good girl, don't feel wronged. I'm here. Let's see who dares to bully you!" Granny Hopper stared at Eve and Patrick domineeringly as if she were a queen in this house.
Seeing his grandmother treating her like Amelia's own grandmother, Patrick had mixed emotions and after glaring at Amelia, turned around angrily and went upstairs.
Eve took the opportunity to be sarcastic, "Amelia, you can't even accommodate your husband, and I really doubt you'll ever divorce Patrick."
Amelia pursed her lips, she was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk.
Granny Hopper calmly responds to the smug Eve, "I didn't approve of you and my son's marriage in the first place either, haven't you been together until now?"
Embarrassed at being rebuffed, Eve then managed a smile and said, "It's about time, I'm going home and I'll pick you up for dinner in a couple of days."
Eve intentionally avoided Granny Hopper, and Granny Hopper didn't want to see Eve, and then Granny Hopper said indifferently, "Go back then, don't come over here and bother me. I'm an old woman, I like peace and quiet, and I can't stand your dramatic personality."
Granny Hopper contradicts Eve in front of Amelia. Eve was humiliated. Sometimes Eve really hated this old woman. She'd been married to Howard for over thirty years and gave him children. Why did her mother-in-law still dislike her so much!
Eve left wistfully, Granny Hopper turned to Amelia.
Realizing the sadness on her face, Granny Hopper sighed and said, "Although Patrick is mean, he is having a hard time."
As Patrick's grandmother, she knew the reason for Patrick's madness. However, Granny Hopper felt gratified that seeing Amelia was not afraid of Patrick, since what she wanted was a granddaughter-in-law who could be Patrick's equal.
