"Patrick..." Sissi was standing between Howard and his son, saying goodbye to Patrick reluctantly.
Under Howard's cold stare, she did not dare to do anything. She only dared to say to Patrick, "You must come to visit me!"
Patrick nodded. "I will."
Staring at Patrick's handsome face, Sissi's beautiful eyes were filled with tears. She almost jumped into his arms and cried.
Howard could not help but urged her coldly, "Can we go now?"
Sissi's heart tightened. No matter how reluctant she was, she could only turn around and leave.
Amelia raised her eyebrows and thought, "Such a beautiful scene. If I were Patrick, I would have taken Sissi with me far away."
Thinking of this, she tilted her neck and looked confusedly at Patrick. "It was strange. Didn't the two of them love each other to death? Why did he just let Sissi get taken away?"
"Was it that... compared to his beloved and child, power was more important to Patrick?" Amelia thought confusingly.
Sensing that Amelia was looking at him unabashedly, Patrick quickly turned around after closing the door. His dark eyes fell on her face and he said, "Now there are only the two of us left."
Amelia asked, "So?"
Patrick passed her and walked over to the sofa. Before he sat down, he took out a cigarette and a lighter from his trouser pocket and asked Amelia, "Can you give me a minute?"
Amelia said indifferently, "Okay, but please don't smoke." "Because it was not good for the baby," Amelia thought to herself.
Patrick tossed the cigarette case and lighter on the coffee table and sat down after hearing this. His long legs overlapped slowly, and his deep eyes locked on to Amelia again. He invited her, "Have a sit?"
Amelia did not refuse because they really needed a good talk.
She bent her knees and sat on the sofa next to Patrick. She frowned when she noticed him staring at her aggressively.
However, he might be seeing the wrong person. He should use his gaze on Sissi.
Amelia scoffed.
At this moment, Patrick said, "I have to clarify one thing. The baby in Sissi's belly doesn't belong to me."
There was deep sarcasm in Amelia's delicate eyes. She squinted at him and said, "You know what, when I was listening to your words it was like listening to a play. But your performance was not very wonderful and could even be said to be full of loopholes!"
Patrick said sincerely, "I don't need to lie to you. Sissi is pregnant with her current husband, Christian! When she came back to Northville, Christian came from abroad and got tangled with her. She got pregnant at that time."
Amelia's eyes were expressionless, "Oh? What a coincidence."
Patrick frowned slightly after hearing her distrusting answer, "Yes, it's just a coincidence. More coincidentally, dad suddenly came to Sissi's house. To protect her from dad's harm, I can only lie that the baby in her belly is mine."
Amelia felt dizzy after hearing it. She felt that what happened made her feel as if she was on a roller coaster, twinning her upside down.
