However, Amelia knew what he wanted to say, "So, you are on a date huh?"
Huxton responded with timid 'hmm'. He was a brave man and he would always take responsibility for what he did. However, he was exceptionally shy in this regard.
Amelia laughed and said, "Okay, you guys have a good time then. I'll find something to eat myself."
Hearing this, Huxton panicked and said, "Madam! I'm sorry. I spent too much time on having fun and I have forgotten to stock up the fridge."
Amelia replied, "It's fine, I'm a grownup and there's no way that I would starve to death, so yeah that's all, bye!"
With that being said, there was still a hint of guilt in Huxton's voice. "I'm sorry, madam..."
Today's vacation was a gift Huxton got from Patrick in advance. Although Patrick said that it was a halfday break, Patrick was not that cruel to just give a half-day break. He even allowed Huxton to spend the night outside.
The purpose of Patrick's doing this was to create some private time for him and Amelia. However, as soon as Amelia hung up the phone, she picked up her wallet and keys and headed outside.
Half an hour later...
Patrick who went to the market for the first time had returned home. He stood at the door with a fish in his left hand and a chicken in his right hand but he did not see the main character of his well-planned 'candlelight dinner'!
After a frown, Patrick felt the vibration of his phone in his pocket. He threw the food aside and immediately took out the phone.
He took a look and saw an unread text message on it. He clicked on it and found that it was Huxton who sent it. It said, "Sir, I've emptied the refrigerator according to your command".
Huxton did not know why his master asked him to do this and warned him not to tell Amelia about this.
Seeing this, Patrick's thin lips curled. He knew that the food he had bought was going to come in handy. He had no idea that Amelia was already heading towards a restaurant to find food.
On the other side...
Amelia was happily eating grilled steak in the restaurant. Of course, she did think of Patrick but then she remembered that he would always be surrounded by people due to his identity, so she did not want to be overly worried.
In the past, she might have bought some materials, cooked a meal for Patrick and waited for him to come back and enjoy dinner.
Sometimes, she would keep on waiting even if the dishes turned cold.
Right this moment, Amelia's hand was so busy feeding food to herself. She did not know if this was a change in her lifestyle or had she given up. All she knew was she wanted to live a better life.
"Ding, ding, ding..."
When she was lost in thought, her cell phone on the table rang.
Amelia calmed down and lowered her head to look at the caller ID on the screen. When she saw 'Kaiden Wright', her heart was instantly filled with joy.
That was great! Someone had finally thought of her. The two days she spent in silence was not in vain after all.
She took a deep breath. When she was sure that she did not let out any happy emotion, she picked up her cell phone and asked, "Hello, Kaiden?"
Kadien did not speak. Without looking, Kaiden could imagine the teasing expression on Amelia's face.
She knew that he could not do anything to her, which was why she dared to act so recklessly!
Hearing that Kaiden was silent on the other side of the phone, Amelia felt a little depressed. What was wrong with this person? He called her but he did not say anything, was he trying to make her anxious?
