Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 720

Amelia's gaze bore straight into his eyes as she spat in a cruel tone, "Am I wrong? Didn't Sissi seduce a son of a businessman behind your back?"

She admitted that she was deliberately poking at Patrick's open wound!

But even then, so what? If she did not hurt him and paint Sissi in a bad light, how could he realize the good in Amelia?

Revulsion spread in Patrick's eyes. "Amelia, your mean words disgust me!"

He could not bear it for her to judge Sissi so rashly when Amelia had never met Sissi before!

At this, Amelia was in rage.

She swallowed the blood at the edge of her lips, became irrational, and asked on impulse, "I didn't know I disgust you so much. Very well then, do you want a divorce?"

She had hurled the word 'divorce' right to Patrick's face.

And he blanked out for a long while at the sound of it!

"Madam!" No matter how calm Huxton was trying to be, he also panicked when he heard Amelia.

The muscles of Patrick's cheek twitched, and he shot Amelia a dangerous, ominous stare.

Amelia was also looking back at him, her face and lips both pale and lost their color. For a woman who loved her husband so deeply, such a decision was no less emotionally painful than any physical turmoil!

All along, it was Patrick who proposed for a divorce, and all she could do was suppress it and silently internalizing what he said.

No matter how many grievances she had suffered, she had never mentioned 'divorce' to Patrick because she knew that there was no going back once she said it.

She must have made her mind up for her to say such a thing.

Amelia understood that, so did Patrick.

And that was precisely why he was experiencing a tsunami of unprecedented shock and fury at this moment!

He so desperately hoped that he had misheard her, but the look in Amelia's gaze told him that she had never made it clearer!

Noticing Patrick was struck to the point of loss for words, Huxton quickly said to Amelia, "Madam, you must be too tired. Let's go in and have a rest! Everything will be fine after a nap!"

But Amelia's eyes remained glued to Patrick, and she said with a scarily stubborn expression, "Give me your answer."

Patrick's face went rigid. Did she think he would give her an answer just because she wanted it?

"Huxton!" He shouted with a stern face. Without leaving any room for discussion, he said, "Send madam in for rest. She is not allowed to step out of the room without my permission!"

Huxton was taken aback. "Sir?"

Patrick gave him a sidelong glance and warned, "If you dare to go against me this time, you better watch out!"

Huxton came to his senses and assured loudly, "Yes, sir! Don't worry, sir, if anything happens to madam, I'll put my life on the line!"

Huxton had declared such a sombre statement on purpose. Amelia was kind-hearted and would not make things difficult for him after hearing what he said.

He started moving and appeared beside Amelia, softly advising, "Madam, please come with me."

After taking a pensive look at Patrick, Amelia turned without another word and left with Huxton.

Although her heart ached, she felt some satisfaction too. She did not know hurting others could feel so pleasant...

A faint hint of a smile appeared at a corner of her smirk, but her tears quietly rolled in her eyes and fell somewhere in her heart where Patrick could not see.
