Coming out from the aquarium, Amelia followed Kaiden from the back.
Kaiden had chosen to feed them in secret even if he clearly knew that it was Sawyer's intention to make the beasts killing each other. Suddenly, Amelia was convinced that Kaiden was in fact a kind-hearted person. If that was the case, then certainly his kind reminder for her might be somewhat true.
However, in the end of the day, Sawyer was one of his family. It did not make sense for Kaiden to bad-mouth his cousin to an outsider like her.
Shaking her head, after all it did not matter anymore whether Kaiden wanted to serve a warning or frighten her.
She had no other choice but to get Sawyer into investing Apex Construction Corporation. This was the only way out for her after she had made such a lie to the government.
She could only be optimistic and pray for the best.
Seeing that the sky was painted brilliant red gold by sunset, she thought of Patrick all in a sudden. Since no one was around at home to take care of his meal, she wondered if he had eaten.
Thinking of this, she reached out to her phone and dialed his number. However, her call was being hung up after the first ring.
Frowning, she guessed that he had thrown a tantrum at her again.
She made a second attempt of call which was being hung up as well. This had further proven that her guess was right.
Sinking in her thought, Kaiden who was all this while walking at the front, took a glance at her all in a sudden.
Seeing that her eyes were flickering, he could not help reminding her, "Hello! Watch your steps!"
"Huh?" Amelia lowered her gaze just to find out that she had already come to the staircase. Had Kaiden not reminded her in time, she would have tripped over and fallen by this moment.
Seeing that she was lost in her thought while holding her phone, Kaiden wondered if she had to be so distracted whenever she was with him.
The thought of this triggered him as he scolded irritably, "What's wrong with you? Can't you even watch your steps?"
Amelia was stunned by his sudden wave of anger out of nowhere. She did not feel like expressing her gratitude for his kind reminder anymore, "Why the hell do you have to be this mad when I didn't even knock into you?"
Kaiden snorted, "It's hard to say. If it were not for my reminder, I'm sure that you have already knocked into me."
Considering the fact that he had somehow warned her, Amelia did not want to start a fight, "Fine, it's my fault then. I shouldn't have lost my mind while using phone. I'm sorry."
Hearing this, Kaiden took a glance at her phone. He then said insidiously, "Oh, now I see. You're waiting for a call from your husband, am I right?"
All he wanted to do was to make fun of her. Unexpectedly, she took it seriously and nodded, "Yes. I wanted to ask him if he had eaten."
Hearing this, Kaiden spoke with fluent sarcasm, "Why I never know that the CEO of Roxxon Corporation is as if a three-year-old kid who needs to be taken care of his meal?"
Hearing this, Amelia immediately felt offended. Kaiden could speak whatever he wanted of her, but Patrick was her limit that he should not have crossed. She fired back, "Mr. Wright, I guess you've never experienced love and romance before, am I right? As a wife to Patrick, it's a sign of love that I concern of his welfare. Leave it. I don't think any men who has phobia towards women will ever
understand this."
With that said, she bypassed him and entered the house.
