The stern look in his eyes made Ashley nod in fear.
Patrick asked in a cold tone, "What did you do wrong?"
"I..." Being glanced at by tourists coming and going from time to time, Ashley felt embarrassed and wanted to hide. She bit her lips and blurt out. "I shouldn't pull the horse's fur. I... I won't do that anymore!"
Andrew aside suddenly said, "I did not look after my sister and did not tell her the cautions of riding a horse. Please forgive her this time!
Patrick said softly and minutely, "Go home and write a thousand-word review."
Ashley thankfully and Andrew gave each other a suggestive look and responded earnestly, "Yes!"
When we got home, while Ashley was writing a review and Andrew was playing with Rick, Amelia, who was alone in the room with Patrick, suddenly said, "Mr. Hopper, I can't reach the zipper at the back of my dress with my hands, can you come over and help me?"
Patrick was slightly stunned, Amelia changed her clothes in front of him already very abnormal, and actually took the initiative to ask him to help her?
After waiting for a long time, Amelia turned her head and asked with a slight smile, "You don't want to?"
Patrick raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm pleased to
help."
He wanted to see what his wife was playing.
"This is it." As Patrick lifted his arm unsuspectingly, Amelia took the opportunity to grab his loosened palm and look down, her expression surprised. "Your palm is strangled with blood, and you say it's fine!"
Listening to her voice so nervous that it trembled slightly, Patrick pleasured, "Mrs. Hopper, are you worried about me?"
"What do you think? What should I do if something happens to you?" Amelia blurted out.
In his smirked, she realized what she had said in her haste and hurriedly let go of his hand to leave, but he backhanded her and she froze at once, not daring to move freely for fear of tearing his hand.
Patrick said, "You want to run away after the confession? You're really a coward."
"Confession?" Amelia whispered herself and could not even find her voice...
After a while, she said awkwardly, "Let go! I'll get you some external medicine."
Patrick didn't want to push her, then lazily agreed. He released her, and whispered seductively, "I'll be waiting for you in bed."
Walking out of the bedroom quickly, Amelia frowned with some bitterness. She was really crazy to confess her love so many times to the same man, and his reaction to her was always joking...
On Monday.
After hearing the doorbell, Amelia opened the door.
She smiled at Owen and Nora who were standing on the steps, "Owen, Nora, how is going on?"
"Good." Nora passed the gift to Amelia with a smile. "This is a local specialty, and I don't know if it's to your liking."
"Thank you." Amelia took it and said, "Come in and have a seat! Patrick has gone to pick up the kids. It may take a while for him to come back."
Owen, who was half a step behind Nora, pointed at the snow-covered pansies in the yard. He asked with interest, "Who did this?"
