Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 1000

"It's the Tibetian script. What is sculpted on it is a blessing and praise towards a friend."

Milton paused uneasily as he said so.

Fortunately, Amelia did not pay much attention to him, as her attention was pulled away by the jade bracelet.

In this regard, Milton slightly cleared her throat to attract Amelia's attention and continued, "I have learned something about you through the email you sent me and from my friends in Northville.

I know that things have been harsh for you recently and the Apex Construction Corporation is on its way to prove itself to the world, so I brought this bracelet as a charm for you."

"No way! It's too precious. I'll take your blessing but I can't accept this bracelet."

If this was just an ordinary jade bracelet, Amelia would definitely take it.

But this was what he auctioned for. It was obvious that he would not have gotten this at a normal price.

She and Milton were childhood friends, but this did not mean that she had the right to be greedy.

Milton did not put the box away. Instead, he asked, "Amelia, do you know why people back then in ancient times would always give a jade to each other?"

Amelia answered dryly like she was reciting a text from her textbook, "Because jade represents gentlemanliness, people who carry the jade with them will portray a feeling that they are a gentleman and well-mannered?"

Milton continued on, "It's more than that. It's a symbol of prosperity to them. It brings good news to the master. Plus, it's engraved with a Tibetian blessing. I think it's good for you to make a change to your situation."

Amelia shook her head and said, "It's said so just to bring peace to the mind. Milton, we'd better believe in science."

Seeing that Amelia was constantly turning down his kindness, he could not help but started to sound anxious, "Maybe you're right. This is just to seek the peace of mind. You can ignore it yourself, but I'm worried about your situation!

You know what? When you were suffering in Northville, I was feeling distressed all the time. More than once, I've thought that 'If only I were by your side'!

I can at least share some of your worries, but my work doesn't allow me to be so capricious!

Amelia, this jade bracelet, is not to make you feel at ease but to make me feel at ease. Please just take it so that I wouldn't have to worry so much about you!

You should at least give me a chance to do something for you, all right?"

Milton sounded very sincere and Amelia was caught up in a complicated mood.

However, this present was different from the past. If Maryanne found out that he had given her such a precious gift, the consequences would be unimaginable!

From her previous interactions with Maryanne, Amelia realized that Maryanne was not a mature woman who was sensible and reasonable. On the contrary, she was filled with jealousy and was good at scheming.

She did not want to bring any trouble to Milton or Maryanne or herself in the future after she accepted the jade bracelet.

"Milton, listen. You can give me something else if you wanted to. If it's possible, please take it back. I hope you can give it to someone much more important in your life."

Amelia did not specifically point out who this "someone" was.

She could be referring to Milton's mother, Sierra. She could also be referring to Maryanne. In front of these two women, she would naturally not be the one that he should think of first.

Seeing that Amelia was not going to accept it no matter what, Milton wished that he had mentioned this bracelet was picked up from a roadside stall instead of an auction.

This time, he entered the wrong zone!
