Kaiden raised his brows and spoke again, "Hold on, I have another question for you."
Seeing that Kaiden had helped her, Amelia stopped and looked at him, "What's the matter?"
Kaiden asked, "Why did you stand in front of me when the fatty was about to hit me?"
Amelia was startled by his question, "I was the one who was involved. Since it had nothing to do with you, of course I had to stand up and settle myself."
Kaiden said angrily, "You are only a woman. How can you deal with it? Can't you see that he was deliberately scamming you?"
Amelia nodded, "I can tell."
"Don't you know that you could at least call a police? Are you a fool?" Kaiden scolded.
"I am afraid that I would have died in his hand before the police could come. That's why I try to resolve the matter." Amelia replied.
Kaiden puffed his chest and said, "You still have me with you. Why didn't you hide behind me?"
"I..." Amelia observed his fairly beautiful face and asked hesitantly, "Are you sure you want me to tell?"
Kaiden raised his chin and said, "Just fire away!"
Pursing her lips, Amelia said, "At that very moment... I had regarded you as a girl..."
Initially she wanted to say 'submissive', but as soon as she recalled that Kaiden was very sensitive with this word, she had to change her meaning a little into saying 'a girl'.
But Amelia seemed to have forgotten that 'a girl' was indifferent from 'submissive' to a man!
Therefore, Kaiden's fair face was flushing red in anger.
However, what he did not know was that his current look exactly resembled a submissive who had been provoked.
In the face of the murderous look from Kaiden, Amelia rubbed her nose and replied shyly, "I didn't mean to say that to you. It's your face. Your face is too pretty for a man..."
Kaiden was probably infuriated. He came forward to Amelia and grabbed her hand into pressing against his chest. He growled furiously, "You should feel yourself now whether I'm a man or a woman!"
Amelia was shocked by his unexpected move. Although there was still a layer of clothing in between, she was not used to the sturdiness from a man. All she wanted to do was to move her hand
away.
However, Kaiden was still gripping her wrist tightly. His delicate face sufficiently told that he was serious, "Tell me now! Is my chest flat or bumpy?"
Amelia quickly replied, "It's flat!"
Kaiden narrowed his eyes, "Then am I still a girl?"
"No, absolutely no!"
Seeing that his face was getting closer and closer, Amelia was so anxious that she wanted to bite off her tongue!
Only then did Kaiden release her hand in satisfaction. Pointing at the tip of her nose, he said, "If you make such mistake again next time, I will just r*pe you on the spot."
Amelia's legs trembled. She wondered why he had to speak in such violently rude manner.
After his revenge, Kaiden spoke to her again kind-hearted ly, "I drive, let me send you home."
After being threatened by Kaiden, Amelia dared not to let him send her. She hurriedly replied in courtesy, "No! I'm fine on my own!"
Amelia's eyes widened slightly before she replied, "Aunty Alice, how do you know?"
Alice said, "At first, I didn't understand why you've changed so much. It was not until much later that I could more or less figure out your real intention. Then I started to act along with you and pretended as if I could not stand with you. You've been helping Brittany and Daniel all this while without anyone knowing. How on earth is it possible for someone as kind as you to kick us when we down?"
Amelia sighed in relief and said, "I'm so sorry for all the ruthless things I've said to you the other day. But I had never expected things to develop in this way."
Alice continued, "Perhaps you're right. Karma will always be waiting. Whatever wrong that Daniel had committed, it had eventually come back revenging at his wife and kid. Alas... Let's not talk about this. Can you come over later? Brittany's mood is still very unstable. She's my only daughter, I can't bear to see her worsening her condition."
To be safe, Amelia asked, "Is Kaleb there?"
Alice answered, "Nope, he's not here."
"Okay, then I'll come over now!"
After hanging up the phone, Amelia said to the taxi driver, "We are not going to the Land of Fragrance anymore..."
On the other side.
Patrick revealed his identity to the front desk in order to request for the door key of one of the rooms in a trader hotel. Upon pushing the door open, he could clearly fell the lusty mess inside the room.
Curling next to the bed on the floor, Sissi was shivering under the quilt. Seeing this, Patrick was no longer nervous. Instead, his expression was coldly stoned!
She seemed to be unaware of his arrival. Her gaze was empty and she was biting her lower lips tightly as if she had almost came to her breaking point!
His gaze darkened. Although he had already known that Sissi was no longer a virgin, however the moment when he heard that she was abused by her
ex-husband, he could not help but feeling outraged.
