The car stopped beside her. When the window was opened, a kind face was revealed.
She looked at her father-in-law, who was in the car, and said timidly, "...Dad."
Howard was not sure whether it was Amelia who had come running over. As soon as he met her, Howard hurriedly picked up the umbrella and opened the door and hided her in the umbrella, saying, "My dear, why are you standing in the rain?"
Seeing Amelia's pale face, Howard immediately put her into the back seat, and then close the umbrella and sat down beside her.
Later, Howard took a clean towel from the driver and handed it to her, saying, "Wipe yourself."
At this moment, Amelia almost burst into tears, but she held it back and asked in a hoarse voice, "Dad, are you coming to see mom?"
Howard nodded and said with worry, "When I received Patrick's first call, I was very anxious. Fortunately, on the way, Patrick called me again, saying that your mom had woken up. God bless! I have to ask her whether she had an accident on the way to your house."
Amelia was stunned as Patrick hadn't told Howard what happened at home.
Thinking Howard would know about it sooner or later, Amelia said with courage, "Dad! Mom accidentally hit her head because of me."
Howard was shocked. If it weren't Patrick's call informing that she had been awake, he would have gone crazy.
Seeing Amelia's pale face, Howard predicted, "Your mom drove you out after waking up?"
"..." Amelia didn't say anything.
"My dear, I know that you didn't do it on purpose. Don't blame yourself." Howard Hopper patted Amelia's hand.
Amelia took a deep breath and said, "Dad, thank you for believing me."
"Your mother has been spoiled by me since getting married. She had been arrogant. In addition, you have offended her several times, so she has never been pleased with you."
Howard shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Listen to me. I'll ask the driver to send you home first. And then you come to see her tomorrow with some food. You're so good at cooking. She has a soft heart. If you make her happy, everything will be gone."
There was a hint of hope in Amelia's eyes and she said, "Okay, thank you, dad."

After being dropped at the Land of Fragrance, Amelia suddenly remembered the phone call from her father, asking her to dine at home. So she took a shower and then covered the red mark on her cheek with pressed powder, and went to The Ramsay Family by her "Little Sheep".
In The Ramsay Family.
When Amelia walked into the house, only George and Alice were sitting in the living room. The large villa looked somewhat bleak.
Since Brittany was at the university and Daniel was working at Apex, how could the house not be bleak?Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Seeing Amelia, George's eyes lit up. He said happily, "My dear, welcome home! We are waiting for you!"
She quietly glanced at George's face, which seemed better. The worries in Amelia's heart finally eased a little.
She sat down on the sofa and said calmly, "No need. I'm just here telling you something."
George had a general idea of Amelia's purpose, so he winked at Alice, who right away went upstairs, leaving them alone.
Amelia seized the opportunity and said, "George, you're not in a good health like before, so don't force yourself to work at Apex. This time, you almost lost your life! I think you have some young and capable guys, including Daniel. He has the ability and ambition to take over Apex and leave the stage to him. And he's your son-in-law, not an outsider. There is no one more suitable than him."
After a pause, Amelia continued, "But let me put it first. The 20% stock left by my mum is always mine. If Daniel does something unfavourable to Apex, I will drag him off the position at once and will never allow anyone to ruin my mom's painstaking efforts!"
Amelia came and left as fast as the wind. When
Alicenwent downstairs, only George was left on the sofa.
Alice leaned over and asked softly, "Done?"
George's gaze was complicated and he said, "Amelia is too stubborn. The more she acts like this, the more I feel apologetic."
Alice asked, "Why?"
George said slowly, "She knows that she is incapable of running Apex and she is worried about my health, so she would rather recommend Daniel, who betrayed her, than letting me work to death. She had predicted my decision, but the decision is based on my apology to her. Therefore, she tried to erase the guilt in my heart in her own way. She is actually telling me that it is not that I appointing Daniel, but she recommended him..."
The next day, at the Land of Fragrance.
Amelia had prepared some liver porridge, which contained high amount of iron, which produced blood.
She tiptoed, took out a thermos bottle from the compartment, poured the fresh porridge into it, and sealed the lid.
She also baked a few some cakes and was about to deliver to the hospital.
Patrick didn't come back last night. He must have taken care of Eve in the hospital. Thinking of his cold words since Eve was hurt, Amelia felt a headache and only hoped that they would accept her apology.
Ding-dong!
Hearing the doorbell, Amelia thought it might be
Patrick.
She ran to the door and opened and found it was Cynthia.
Cynthia smiled and said, "Good morning, Ms. Amelia, I'm here to clean the house."
Amelia felt strange and asked, "Why didn't you come yesterday?"
"Brother Patrick called me yesterday and told me not to come." Cynthia said.
"Oh, there's no one at home. You can go back, but we'll pay you." Amelia said in a hurry.
Hearing this, Cynthia couldn't help asking, "Where is Brother Patrick?"
Amelia frowned and said, "You forgot what I told you?"
Cynthia was in panic and said, "I'm sorry..."
They both left in their own ways.
In the emergency center.
Paisley was changing Eve's gauze. When the old gauze was removed, Eve asked nervously, "Will this wound leave any scar?"
Women, even if they were middle- aged, wanted themselves to be the most beautiful.
Paisley chuckled and comforted her, "Auntie, the medical technology and beauty technology are very well-developed. Even thought there is a scar, it can be removed by laser."
