Amelia sighed in frustration at Patrick's cold demeanor and Andrew's unconvinced face.
It seemed that Patrick's pursuit of Andrew has exacerbated the conflict with him?
"Let me go!" Andrew punched Patrick on the shoulder and back. At this moment, Patrick was no longer the Uncle he used to worship, but a bad guy!
Patrick walked straight between the gawking Amelia and Ashley toward the Lamborghini, pressed the key with his other free hand, unlocked the car, pulled the door open, and threw Andrew in.
Patrick decided to slam the door shut before Andrew ran out of the car.
When Andrew fell, Amelia was upset with Patrick, "Will you stop being so rude? He has an eye injury!"
Patrick gave Amelia a glance, "This pad costs tens of thousands of dollars, and he won't get hurt if he falls on it."
Amelia took a deep breath and reminded herself that she was outside. If there was something wrong, she would talk about it after they went home.
After calming down, she pointed to the back seat and said, "Andrew is not in a stable mood now. I request to sit with him!"
Patrick unlocked the door and allowed Amelia to move into the back seat.
He put Ashley in the car and drove Andrew to the
Children's Hospital.
At the Children's Hospital entrance.
Patrick Hopper was the first to get out of the car and reached out a hand to Andrew, but Andrew slapped it away angrily.
Seeing Patrick's stunning look, Amelia gently advised Andrew, "Andrew, don't do this..."
In spite of Andrew's grievances, she didn't want him to get into a confrontation with Patrick, was that good for him? Not at all.
Andrew resolutely said to Patrick, "The school nurse has already dealt with my eye. I don't need to go to the hospital! I, I want to go home!"
Patrick raised his eyebrows and asked, "Whose home are you back to? Yours or mine?"
Andrew's hesitation flashed across his fleshy face as he listened to Patrick's deliberate question. He wanted to say, "Go my home" in a spirited manner, but with his parents out of town, his nanny taking the day off, and Ashley clinging to Patrick, he was sure she wouldn't be able to live with him.
After thinking for half a second, Andrew blushed and said, "I'm going to wander..."
Patrick glanced at Andrew's bloated left eye and smiled mockingly, "You do look like a street bum in that state."
Andrew is only a few years old and doesn't know how to argue, and he yells with resignation, "You don't know, it's a hero's scar!" "Would you like me to ask the government to give you a hero's medal?" Patrick narrowed his eyes and raised his voice, "Do you think you're right to hit someone!"
Andrew was overwhelmed by Patrick's yell, and his two round eyes filled with tears.
Patrick had no intention of indulging Andrew at all and said coldly, "Get out of the car."
Andrew insisted, "No, I won't!"
Patrick laughed instead of getting angry, fished a black cell phone out of his pocket, pointed it at Andrew's wretched face, and said, "If you don't see a doctor, I'll take a picture of what you look like now and show it to your parents so they can feel how awesome their son is at school."
Andrew succumbed.
