The car stopped beside her. When the window was opened, a kind face was revealed.
She looked at her father-in-law, who was in the car, and said timidly, "...Dad."
Howard was not sure whether it was Amelia who had come running over. As soon as he met her, Howard hurriedly picked up the umbrella and opened the door and hided her in the umbrella, saying, "My dear, why are you standing in the rain?"
Seeing Amelia's pale face, Howard immediately put her into the back seat, and then close the umbrella and sat down beside her.
Later, Howard took a clean towel from the driver and handed it to her, saying, "Wipe yourself."
At this moment, Amelia almost burst into tears, but she held it back and asked in a hoarse voice, "Dad, are you coming to see mom?"
Howard nodded and said with worry, "When I received Patrick's first call, I was very anxious. Fortunately, on the way, Patrick called me again, saying that your mom had woken up. God bless! I have to ask her whether she had an accident on the way to your house."
Amelia was stunned as Patrick hadn't told Howard what happened at home.
Thinking Howard would know about it sooner or later, Amelia said with courage, "Dad! Mom accidentally hit her head because of me."
Howard was shocked. If it weren't Patrick's call informing that she had been awake, he would have gone crazy.
Seeing Amelia's pale face, Howard predicted, "Your mom drove you out after waking up?"
"..." Amelia didn't say anything.
"My dear, I know that you didn't do it on purpose. Don't blame yourself." Howard Hopper patted Amelia's hand.
Amelia took a deep breath and said, "Dad, thank you for believing me."
"Your mother has been spoiled by me since getting married. She had been arrogant. In addition, you have offended her several times, so she has never been pleased with you."
Howard shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Listen to me. I'll ask the driver to send you home first. And then you come to see her tomorrow with some food. You're so good at cooking. She has a soft heart. If you make her happy, everything will be gone."
There was a hint of hope in Amelia's eyes and she said, "Okay, thank you, dad."

After being dropped at the Land of Fragrance, Amelia suddenly remembered the phone call from her father, asking her to dine at home. So she took a shower and then covered the red mark on her cheek with pressed powder, and went to The Ramsay Family by her "Little Sheep".
In The Ramsay Family.
When Amelia walked into the house, only George and Alice were sitting in the living room. The large villa looked somewhat bleak.
Since Brittany was at the university and Daniel was working at Apex, how could the house not be bleak?
Seeing Amelia, George's eyes lit up. He said happily, "My dear, welcome home! We are waiting for you!"
She quietly glanced at George's face, which seemed better. The worries in Amelia's heart finally eased a little.
She sat down on the sofa and said calmly, "No need. I'm just here telling you something."
George had a general idea of Amelia's purpose, so he winked at Alice, who right away went upstairs, leaving them alone.
Amelia seized the opportunity and said, "George, you're not in a good health like before, so don't force yourself to work at Apex. This time, you almost lost your life! I think you have some young and capable guys, including Daniel. He has the ability and ambition to take over Apex and leave the stage to him. And he's your son-in-law, not an outsider. There is no one more suitable than him."
