Most importantly, this is a commercial marriage. If Amelia refused, there could be more blind dates until she accepted to get married.
Rather than letting some possible mother-in-laws bully her for not being a virgin, she might just marry Patrick.-
Drinking the last bit of unwillingness and regret, Amelia picked up the Yixing clay teapot, pressed down on the lid and refilled the cups for George and Howard. She agreed to this marriage.
In the Hopper family.
There are in total of three floors in the Hopper villa. Not only did it cover a large area, but a big part of it was designated as the outer and inner yard. The road of the outer yard was paved with flat and smooth waterproof tiles for the security guards to drive seyway scooters on patrol. And the inner yard was paved with pebbles that formed narrow paths, leading to the entrances of different rooms.
Opening the anti-theft gate on the first floor of the villa with his fingerprint, Patrick walked into the spacious living room. A beautiful girl sat up from the leather sofa and waved at him, asking him to go to her.
Patrick sat down beside her.
Florence Hopper licked her ice cream and asked, "Oh dear brother, tell me. How does my future sister-in-law look? Does it suit your taste?"
Patrick was filled with anger without an outlet. Florence was technically adding fuel to his fire.
He snagged his sister's Haagen-Dazs ice-cream and her spoon without asking. Before she realized what happened, all Florence could see was just an empty cup.
