Chapter 215
Amelia laughed lightly and contemptuously, "You are the baby who is spoiled by your fans and agency. Not to mention whether you are respectful to work or not, just your behavior of running out of the hospital without saying anything is irresponsible! I used to be really blind to like your shows!"
Unexpectedly, Shawn turned from anger to joy upon hearing that Amelia liked his shows. "What shows of mine you appreciate? How does it feel? Is it at a level where I can win awards?"
"You..." Not expecting Shawn to change so quickly, Amelia was surprised and gave him a confused look, "Are you running a fever, or you feel a little delirious, don't you?"
"With all the injections and pills yesterday, my fever has already gone." As if afraid Amelia wouldn't believe him, Shawn suddenly took her hand and pressed it to his head.
"Hey, you, don't touch me!" Amelia tried to pull back, but Shawn didn't want to let it go as he felt her hand small and soft.
During their struggle, Amelia moved too much and accidentally took off the cap that Shawn was using to hide his face.
"Ah!" Shawn screamed and immediately raised his hands to cover his face as Amelia picked up the grey cap from the floor and put it on Shawn.
Amelia said in a worried tone, "Get out of here before anyone notices, I'm afraid you'll be seen."
Shawn pressed his hand firmly against his cap and whispered to Amelia, "I'm here for your boss! Wouldn't it be a lack of willpower for me to leave before I've even met him?"
Amelia glanced at him faintly, "To tell you the truth, Mr. Hopper isn't interested in snogging male celebrities, and he won't look down on you even if you come here a hundred times."
"You! What are you babbling about!" Shawn heard her words, his eyes wide with irritation.
Amelia said provocatively, "Am I wrong? Isn't it because you love Patrick that you came to see him on your own and risked being caught on camera by fans and reporters when it was obvious that an agent could have coordinated with him?"
Shawn blushed momentarily from embarrassment and was stuttered from anger, "I like women, you hear me? Little rabbit!"
Amelia rudely retorted, "Little rabbit? I'm half a year older than you, you got it?"
Shawn was shocked again, "How is that possible, you look... obviously very young."
Then his gaze creeping over her chest.
Amelia as well took a look at his lower half and spoke playfully, "Hey, little brother?"
Shawn flinched and very angrily glared at Amelia and shouted, "I'm wearing baggy pants, you don't know if it is 'little brother' or 'big brother'!" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
He raised his voice, drawing the suspicion of some nearby passersby, fearing he'd actually exposed himself, Shawn awkwardly turned and ran away, abandoning his argument with Amelia for the moment.
Amelia was worried about his sense of direction, shouted at his back, "Hey! Remember to take a cab back so you don't get lost!"
The next day, in Roxxon Corporation.
Amelia came to work today and noticed that her coworkers were looking at her strangely. The way was similar to the time when she and Patrick were having an affair.
She concentrated on her thoughts for a moment only to find she and Patrick had been keeping quite a distance from each other at the office lately.
She felt baffled all the way to the sales department, and there was no further tragedy in the process like the last time she tripped over someone.
No sooner had Amelia sat down than Doris rushed impatiently over to her, Doris grabbed her arm and said excitedly, "Amelia! I never thought you'd be this kind of person!"
"What?" Amelia did not understand what Doris meant at all.
"That's it!" Doris spread the latest issue of the magazine in front of Amelia, and the eye-catching headline caught her attention, "Shawn and a mystery woman in the street!"
"What the hell is this!" Amelia got up from her chair with a groan, looking ridiculous.
Seeing how agitated Amelia was, Doris immediately reassured her, "Amelia, Amelia! from the side view, this handsome man is indeed Shawn without a doubt, but we can't rule out the possibility of similar looks."
Amelia knew that this man was Shawn!
At the time she lost his hat and immediately helped him pick it back up and put it on, but even so, it was snapped by the ubiquitous paparazzi!
In The Hopper Family.
Patrick was home for a rare overnight stay, and Eve was overjoyed to be pouring milk and smearing bread on her son herself at the dinner table.
Howard saw the scene and said helplessly, "He is an adult. Do you need to take care of him like a little baby?"
"Dad's right," Patrick felt overwhelmed and said, "Mom, let me do it myself."
Eve dodged Patrick's hand trying to catch the milk and grumbled to Howard, "Honey, my son comes home once or twice a month now, and every time I see him, I think he's lost weight, and you don't feel sorry for him, but I do."
After a pause and a bit of amusement, Eve said to Patrick, "Did you feel weird when I took care of you like this a decade ago? Now that you've married and moved away from the Hooper's family, you're estranged from me..."
Patrick didn't want to upset his mother and coaxed her to say, "Mom, my wife isn't as nice as you are."
"I think so!" Eve laughed happily.
During dinner, Howard unintentionally asked, "Why are you suddenly home tonight? Did Amelia know?"
Patrick said as if nothing had happened, "I just missed you and came back to stay overnight to spend time with her."
Eve took the opportunity to count Amelia's faults in front of Howard: "That's the difference between Patrick and Amelia, and I
guess Amelia would have run away as soon as she heard Patrick say he was coming home to be with me.
Howard said bluntly, "That's because Amelia had the foresight to know that she'd be sure to argue with someone as soon as she came back, so she might as well not come and everyone would be at ease."
Hearing that, Eve asked knowingly, "Who is someone?"
"No one." Howard was smart enough to know when to stop and keep Eve from starting an argument with him.
At that moment, Patrick's phone rang and he took it out to see that it was his secretary calling. He guessed it is about the work.
He got up and said to Mr. and Mrs. Howard, "I'm going out to take a call."
"Go for it."
It was only when he reached a quiet place that Patrick answered the phone and got straight to the point, "What's going on?"
Hearing his voice, the secretary said impatiently, "Mr. Hopper, I've just read a gossip news on the Internet and feel compelled to report it to you!"
"Go ahead."
The secretary came in with a shocking revelation: "Madam Amelia Ramsay and Shawn who endorses our 'The Water of ₐ Life¹, are in a rumor!"
