Chapter 209
"Let's think about it on the other hand. If you didn't lie to me and go climbing with Ryan, would I go to find him today? If I didn't go to find him, would he suffer from asthma again?"
Amelia nodded undeniablely.
"If Ryan was not sent to the hospital, you wouldn't have shouted at me and even run away from home. Then you wouldn't have met the rapist and even caused me to be hurt by him."
Amelia hesitated for a while and then nodded.
Patrick concluded slowly, "So, in the final analysis, it's all your fault."
Amelia was confused by his words. His words sounded so strange, but she had no way to refute him.
She pursed her lips and made a concession, saying, "Well, Mr. Hopper, it's all my fault. I'm sorry to have caused you so much trouble."
Although she was more or less unwilling to admit her mistake, Patrick said with a smile, "Okay, then we can talk about the next thing."
"What?" Amelia was shocked and said, "What do you want to say?"
Patrick's eyes suddenly became sharp, "What did Cussler say to you outside the emergency room? You laughed so happily!"
Amelia recalled for a moment and said, "He told me a joke." "What joke?"
"I forgot." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Patrick's eyes became angrily, "Do you forget it or are you not willing to share it with me?"
Amelia sighed and said, "I only cared about your injury at that time. It was hard for me to laugh after hearing his joke. How can you expect me to remember that joke?"
Her answer made him a little satisfied, "That's good."
"Do you have any other questions? I'm going to prepare the bath water for you." After saying this, Amelia gently put down Patrick's injured arm.
When she turned around, Patrick grabbed her with the other hand and said, "Cook me a bowl of noodles first."
Amelia reacted, "Didn't you have dinner at night?"
In fact, Patrick didn't eat any food from noon to that moment, he was weak and distracted, otherwise, the rapist couldn't have got the chance to stab him.
Fifteen minutes later.
Amelia put the noodles soaked in soy sauce in front of Patrick. Fortunately, his left arm was injured and he used chopsticks with his right hand. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to eat.
Seeing that Patrick had a good appetite, Amelia was touched and confused. She asked, "By the way, why did you go to the alley?"
Patrick said without raising his head, "I've told you
that I happened to pass by."
Amelia frowned and said, "If you don't tell me the truth, I'll call Doctor Bledel."
Patrick snorted and said, "It's useless even if you call her. She doesn't know much about it."
Amelia made a guess on her own, "Did you secretly follow me again?"
Patrick frowned slightly and said, "I don't have that kind of strange hobby. Besides, you are not an important person. Why should I follow you?"
Amelia chuckled happily, "Is that so?" She thought, "I know that you followed me, ha-ha!"
The next day, in Roxxon Corporation.
When Amelia came out of the toilet, a figure suddenly passed by her in a fast speed. She held her breath and followed him up, only to see that the person wore a mask and hat, she could not even see clearly what he looked like.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Amelia plucked up her courage and patted him on the shoulder, which made the man so frightened that he almost jumped up.
"It's you?" When the man with a mask saw Amelia, he said in a surprised voice.
"Do you know me?" Amelia pointed at herself and asked with confusion.
"Shh! Tell me first, which floor is Patrick's office on?" The masked man asked in a deep voice.
"Why should I tell you?" Amelia looked at him up and down, she felt that he was familiar, but she couldn't
figure out who he was.
The man rolled his eyes which were behind the sunglasses at Amelia. Then he got close to her and whispered in her ear, "I'm Shawn!"
"What! You..."
Before Amelia could finish her words, Shawn warned her fiercely, "Keep your voice down!"
After Amelia looked around and confirmed that no one was around, she asked Shawn a series of questions, "Do you come here alone? Where is Milton? Where are your agent? Where are your fans?"
Shawn said impatiently, "I came here today to talk to Patrick on purpose. No one knows I'm here. But if you continue to speak so loudly, everyone will know that I'm here!"
"Well..." Amelia asked in a low voice, "Why do you want to talk to Mr. Hopper?"
Shawn coughed, then pointed to his throat and asked Amelia, "Do you hearthat? I catch a cold."
"Yeah."
"Do you know the reason why I catch a cold?"
Seeing that Amelia shaking her head in a daze, Shawn said furiously, "Because Patrick changed the shooting content temporarily! I ran all over the street in the heavy rain caused by the high- pressure water cannons! What's worse, they're not satisfied with my performance. I was exposed in the cold water for two days. Ahem..."
Seeing that Shawn had a bad cough, Amelia suggested him sincerely, "You should stay in the hospital and recuperate now. If you go out and are exposed in the autumn wind, you'll get more seriously ill!"
Shawn cleared his throat and continued, "I just ran out of the hospital! You want me to go back now? No way! Today, if Patrick doesn't give me a reasonable explanation, I won't leave your company!"
Amelia looked at him with pity, "To tell you the truth, Mr. Hopper is not in the company today. You'd better come back another day."
Shawn raised his voice, "You are lying to me, aren't you?"
"I don't have time to joke with you."
Because Patrick's arm was injured, Amelia didn't want him to be too tired, so she put a sleeping pill in the water he drank last night so that he could have a good sleep at home.
Shawn insisted, "I don't believe it, unless you take me to his office now. I want to see if he is here in person!"
Amelia laughed and said, "Didn't you sign the contract in his office a few days ago? What's wrong? Have you forgotten where his office is?"
Shawn was stunned. Amelia was right. He really forgot where Patrick's office was.
In normal times, Shawn's agent would do everything for him, including finding his way. He didn't need to care about anything except for filming. Unexpectedly, when he came to Roxxon, he really realized that Roxxon was so big that he couldn't find a way!
Before leaving, Amelia said, "I'm busy now. You can look for his office floor by floor. If you don't want to do that, go back to the hospital and lie down. I'm leaving."
Shawn suddenly grabbed her arm.
