After Kelvin left, Aimee asked, “How are you two getting along today?”
Patrick was also very speechless when he thought of the picture of the two of them staring at each other there today.
He said, “From now on, you can just do your own thing and don’t have to find someone to take care of me.”
“Why? You can’t move around now.” Aimee said.
Speaking of this, Aimee frowned and said to Patrick, “How long have you been out of bed? Why are you so disobedient? I’m going to punish you.”
“How do you want to punish me?” Patrick raised his eyebrows slightly.
It was a normal sentence, but when Patrick asked it in such a tone, it became very strange.
With her blushing face, she felt even more flustered at this moment.
She said, “Of course it is to punish you… to punish you for lying in bed for a few more days, because you’re so disobedient.”
As she said that, she already took Patrick’s hand involuntarily and led him into the room.
Patrick was led away by her, and the mood finally eased a lot.
Aimee didn’t remember an important thing until she pushed him down on the bed, “Mr. Hayden, have you eaten yet?”
Patrick looked at Aimee amusedly upon hearing this, and his eyes were filled with helplessness.
So, she was worried that Kelvin was not taking care of him well?
Patrick said, “Your friend is not bad.”
Aimee tilted her head and thought for a while, and finally understood what Patrick was referring to.
“He’s really good,” she said.
Kelvin was very reliable, responsible, and considerate, and there was nothing he can’t handle that was told to him.
Therefore, she asked this question, which was actually a bit redundant.
Aimee said, “It seems that you have eaten. Have a good rest. I will go back to my room.”
As soon as Patrick took Aimee’s hand, he said, “Aimee, won’t you stay with me for a while?”
Aimee hesitated for a moment, but finally sat down by the bed and said, “If you want me to accompany you, I will do it.”
She was very nice today, and she will agree to any request made by Patrick.
Patrick sat up, looked at Aimee with dark eyes, and said, “Tell me what you think about the Reads.”
Aimee fell silent instantly, lowered her eyelids, and said, “Mr. Hayden, what do you want to hear?”
“You don’t have family affection for them, do you?” Patrick said.
Aimee didn’t really want to talk to Patrick about this. She can handle this kind of thing by herself, and she had already started to deal with it.
She didn’t want to involve Patrick and to have him carry the mess with her.
Aimee said, “Yeah, we are more like enemies to each other.”
At least, the Reads should regard her as an enemy.
Patrick heard that and his heart seemed to be caught by something, and it was painful.
He can imagine what Aimee had suffered in her heart when she grew up in such an environment.
But she was not crushed emotionally by those treatment, but became what she was now.
She had good medical skills, and there were many skills that he had not yet learned.
Patrick can imagine how Aimee got to where she was today.
Raising his hand and touching the top of Aimee’s head, Patrick said, “Aimee, you’ve worked hard all these years.”
Aimee didn’t feel much at first, but she had already gotten used to it from her experience since she was a child.
However, at this moment, when she heard Patrick say such words, her eye sockets suddenly swelled up.
Was it hard?
Of course it was hard work.
Learning those things secretly, although her talent seemed to make it much easier for her than ordinary people, but everything was not accomplished overnight. With a unique talent, she had to bear much more hardship than ordinary people.
But she had never been troubled by these, but was very grateful. Because of those experiences, she had made her what she was now.
Aimee said, “If I don’t expect so much, I won’t be disappointed. After such a long time, I’m used to it.”
Although Patrick could understand her thoughts, he still couldn’t control his distress.
If he had met her earlier, wouldn’t it have made her experience so many unhappy things?
It was he who failed to protect her.
Aimee raised the corner of her mouth and said, “Okay, from now on, if you want to know anything, just ask, and I will answer you honestly, okay?”
She could see that Patrick felt sorry for her from the bottom of his heart.
Then she didn’t need to hide anything, and today, she will have a confession with him.
However, after she said that, Patrick didn’t know how to ask.
He thought for a while and said, “So, if I do something to the Read family, you won’t be embarrassed by it, will you?”
Aimee was stunned for a moment, and soon smiled sweetly.
She asked, “Are you trying to avenge for me?”
She was curious what he was going to do.
Patrick said, “As long as you have no scruples, I do want to do something.”
In fact, the moment he learned of Aimee’s being beaten, Patrick had already confessed that he would teach Mason some lessons.
Now, all the actions were ready, just waiting for his order.
The reason why there was no direct action was that Patrick still had to give Aimee a minimum of respect.
Those, after all, were family with her.
If because of his actions, Aimee’s heart was broken, it would not be worth the candle.
Aimee struggled for a while, and finally said to Patrick honestly, “But, I’m ready to do it myself.”
Patrick was taken aback, and he never expected such a situation.
He felt a little helpless in an instant.
Based on his understanding of Aimee, although he didn’t know whether Aimee will be ruthless, one thing he can be sure of was that Aimee was not simple. If she really made a move, even if she didn’t directly kill the Read family, she would sap their vitality.
For a while, really, there were some dilemmas.
Patrick said, “As long as you don’t mind, I’m happy to add insult to injury.”
Aimee burst out laughing when she heard this.
She said, “The Read family will be quite miserable. I have heard about your methods.”
She had fought with him as the Growlers before, so she knew his style very well.
He won’t play those tricks of frog-boiling. As long as he was determined to deal with them, he will directly put them to death, and may not even give them a chance to counterattack.
Aimee said, “Mr. Hayden, why don’t you wait until I’ve had enough fun before making a move?”
Patrick looked at Aimee and saw that she showed no signs of softening, so he nodded and said, “Okay, just listen to you.”
Aimee became happy, and met Patrick’s gaze, with endless joy in her eyes.
For a moment, Patrick was really infatuated by this look.
His Adam’s apple rolled unconsciously. He raised his hand and landed on the back of Aimee’s head, gently brought her to him, and then bowed his head and kissed her.
This kiss was even more tender than when he kissed her secretly before, so that Aimee fell into Patrick’s tenderness before she could react what was happening.
Patrick didn’t go deep. It was just a light touch, but it was more seductive than a passionate French kiss.
Until…
Aimee raised her hand and patted Patrick’s arm, telling him to let go.
She gasped for breath, looking as if she was going to die of breath in the next second.
Patrick was almost annoyed by her appearance.
Did she do it on purpose?
When kissing, she didn’t know how to breathe, leading no ambiguous atmosphere.
