Chapter 781
What an amazing observation!
Although she did not know how Owen found that she was being spied on, Amelia was totally amazed by his capabilities.
She imitated Owen and took out her phone from her leather bag. She then wrote in her notepad, "I know, he placed a listening bug on me."
Seeing this, Owen looked at Amelia with a strange expression. "Since you know it, why don't you take it off? Don't you feel that you have no privacy?"
Amelia chuckled and wrote down. "At first yes, but then I gradually got used to it.]"
Owen then wrote, "What a pair of weirdos!"
For some reason, Amelia replied, "We're a perfect match."
They gave each other a smile and remained silent.
But at this moment, Patrick was walking circles in the living room.
Huxton had been staring worriedly at the listening device in Patrick's ears. He was afraid that his money would go to waste again if Patrick got angry.
"Why did they stop talking?"
Patrick was very confused. He clearly heard the breath of someone else. It was enough to prove that his wife was still in the same room with Owen but why was it so quiet!
Wouldn't it be awkward to remain silent all this time?Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Speak!
He would rather for them to talk instead of being in an endless silence.
Talking meant that they were focused on doing something.
But being in the silence would mean countless possibilities.
Just the thought of Amelia admiring Owen had filled Patrick's heart with anxiety!
He decided not to sit still and waited, so he crooked his finger at Huxton, hinting at him.
Huxton silently picked up his gun from the carpet, did something on it and then handed it over to Patrick with both hands.
Patrick glanced at the gun with a poker face, picked it up and threw it back into the trash can. This unloaded thingy was not helpful at all!
Huxton felt wronged. He had already loaded the gun with six bullets! Didn't Patrick notice the change of weight?
Seeing that Patrick's palms were still facing him, Huxton asked in confusion, "Sir, what do you want?"
Patrick said impatiently, "My cell phone!"
Oh! So this was what he wanted!
Huxton immediately picked up the phone on the ground. Knowing that Patrick liked his things cleaned, he was going to disinfect the phone in the bathroom.
The more Huxton looked at the screen, the dirtier he realized it was as it was facing down the floor previously. Huxton even had the urge to replace the screen protector instead for his master!
However Patrick was in a hurry, how could he wait till Huxton disinfect it for him.
He immediately snatched the phone away and rolled his eyes at Huxton. After that, he dialled Nora's number and called her.
Nora on the other hand picked the phone up very quickly.
"Patrick?"
"I have something to ask you!" Patrick's tone was harsh. He had always been respectful to Nora. If it were not for the sake of Amelia, he would surely continue on being respectful to her!
"Hm? You want to ask about Amelia, don't you?" There was no need for Patrick to say anything else.
Nora said, "Your big brother and I saw her falling asleep at dad's garage, so we brought her back to our house. However, no matter how angry you are, you shouldn't leave her alone. Isn't it very hurtful? But don't worry, your big brother and I have been comforting her. Your brother is now comforting her in her room. He has studied psychology, so what he says will definitely be more useful than mine..."
When he heard that Amelia and Owen were in the same room, the sourness in Patrick's heart overran him although he knew nothing was wrong.
He forced himself to remain calm and pretended to say, "Nora, listen to me. I think it's better for you to talk to Amelia, she isn't familiar with my brother at all!"
Nora thought for a moment and replied, "Yeah, I always felt that Amelia was a little afraid of your brother, so I wanted to take this opportunity to let them get familiar with each other. After all, we're a family. Not to mention that Amelia had taken care of Ashley and Andrew on your big brother's behalf for so long..."
Nora's righteousness made Patrick speechless.
Not knowing when the call had ended. He put his phone down and said to Huxton with a cold face, "Go! Bring madam back now!"
"Sir?" Huxton had a big question mark on his head.
He knew that Amelia had been brought home by Owen and his wife. It was because of this that he found it particularly hard to understand his master's irascible nature.
Didn't his master trust Owen from the bottom of his heart? Why would he be so dissatisfied and uneasy when he heard that his wife was staying in Owen's house?
Seeing that Huxton was as motionless as a rock, Patrick could not help but raise his voice. "Didn't you hear what I just asked you to do?"
"Yes." Huxton answered and immediately said with embarrassment, "But it's your brother. Would it be impolite for me to go his house and pick madam up?"
There was no need to be polite when dealing with that unscrupulous big brother of his!
Patrick felt a sudden pressure on his chest. He almost lost his mind and said, "It's easy to be polite, just go and buy a wreath..."
"A wreath?" Huxton was so surprised that he almost jumped towards the sky.
"Bah!" Patrick said in his heart. "What I mean is that you can buy either a flower basket or a fruit basket. It's a little token of appreciation for taking Amelia
in!"
Huxton scratched his head and said, "Even so, I still feel like I would offend someone by doing that."
Patrick was so anxious. If it were not for the fact that he could not let go of his pride, he would have gone and robbed the girl back by himself!
Patrick thought about it for a moment and suddenly stood with his hands behind his back. He acted like a big shot and said. "Well, if you can get Amelia back, I'll give you half a day leave next month. You can take your girlfriend out and have fun."
It was just a half-day holiday, how was he supposed to go out and have fun?"
The corners of Huxton's mouth twitched slightly. His master was being too petty!
Seeing the unwilling expression on Huxton's face, Patrick accused him shamelessly. "Isn't a half- day leave enough? Don't forget, you're the butler here!"
"Alright then, half a day it is..." Huxton's words were not as agile as his skills. Not to mentioned that now he had came across such a shameless person like Patrick. What could he do except for accepting Patrick's offer!
After that, Patrick urged Huxton to buy a gift as soon as possible in a fierce manner!
Huxton, who had always been neatly prepared did not even have time to wear his socks. He was in his slippers when he was kicked out of the house by Patrick with the car keys and a few dollars in his pocket.
A gust of cold wind blew past and immediately Huxton had the intention of going against his master's wish.
At Owen's house.
Hearing the sound of footsteps near the door. Owen immediately stood up from his chair and went to open the door.
Outside the door, Nora glanced at Owen and asked in confusion, "Why did you close the door?"
Owen smiled and said nothing.
Fortunately, Nora was not the type that insisted on knowing things. She pushed Owen away with her shoulders and said to the silly-looking Amelia sitting on the edge of the bed, "Amelia, I've brought you a nightgown. You can put it on before going to bed. It'll make you feel much more comfortable."
