Amelia turned pale with fright, her palms breaking into a sweat in his hands.
Watching him as his devilish eyes scanned her up and down as if he was considering where to start with her, she yelled anxiously, "Don't get any of those disgusting ideas about me! If you want to kill me, just say a word! Don't insult my dignity!"
Patrick was delighted to see that he had successfully made Amelia flustered. It was better for her to get agitated with him than to have no interest in him.
"But I want to insult you. I wouldn't do it if it were someone else."
Amelia shot him a glare. "I'll sue you for marital r*pe! Bet you're scared now!"
But Patrick only slowly broke into a grin as he said, "Haha, but there's something I'm more curious about. When you give your statement to the police, can you accurately tell them about the tools I used on you?"
Amelia was so embarrassed that she struggled to reply. Just in case, she then stopped caring about the recording pen and turned around to open the
door.
But she seemed to have forgotten that her hand was still entangled with Patrick's.
Patrick was so tall and fit, it was impossible for her to budge him!
Just then, Amelia heard footsteps approaching from behind the door.
With a gleeful look on her face, she called out, "Huxton! I know you must have found your conscience! As long as you open the door and let me go, I'll forgive the dirty tricks you pulled on me!"
Patrick raised his eyebrow upon hearing her and let Amelia continue to cry for help.
It was indeed Huxton who appeared at the door. But he was not there to help Amelia open the door. He was there to help Patrick lock the door!
He took off a ring of keys from his waist, picked out the key to the master bedroom, inserted it into the keyhole, then with a few clicks, it was settled!
At this point, it would be hard for Amelia to get away from Patrick, even if she had wings.
After clearing his throat, Huxton pretended to have both of their best intentions in mind and shouted, "Sir, madam, you can rest assured. I'm guarding the house, so it's totally safe. You two can come out
whenever you want after you're done!"
Upon hearing him, amongst the two people in the room, one laughed while the other cried.
The one who cried was, of course, Amelia. She could tell that Huxton had just locked the door. Didn't he do it on purpose to facilitate his master while his master did 'things' to her? So despicable and shameless of him!
But when it came to despicability and shamelessness, there was no doubt that the man before her took the crown for the title!
Amelia glared at him with resentment. "You jerk... Hey! Put me down!"
Just when she spoke, Patrick pulled her onto his shoulder and strode to the bed, all the way while holding each other's hands.
Amelia bit her discolored lip and continued to scold, "Patrick, you pervert! Sc*mbag! You... Ouch!"
Before she could finish telling him off, Patrick had thrown her onto the bed behind them, making her so dizzy!
And before she could come to her senses, Patrick began to unbutton his shirt and said calmly, "I suddenly remembered that we've been so busy recently that we've forgotten about the most important thing..."
Amelia then sat up from the bed, clenched her fist and shouted, "There's nothing between me and you that's worth remembering, you b*stard!"
Right after that, Patrick bent forward and lifted Amelia's chin with his perfect index finger, saying with certainty, "Yes, there is. We've forgotten that we're supposed to create a life."
Amelia's face froze, then she frantically swatted Patrick's hands away.
A hiss sounded. And as a result, she noticed that the hand he used to lift her chin was wrapped in a smear of white.
