Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 11

With that one sentence, it snuffed out the last bit of sympathy from Amelia..

Amelia rang the doorbell of Room 701, and after a while, a faint voice came through the door: "...Who?"

Amelia said firmly, "Jessica, it's me. We've handled Jeff. Open the door."

After a series of squeaking sound of dragging the sofa, a crack was opened at the door, revealing the face of Jessica who seemed like as if she had survived an earthquake.

When she saw Amelia, Jessica was touched. After Jeff was at the door, she was hiding in the bathroom. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was inappropriate. Jessica felt bad for Amelia who left her husband and ran back to the apartment on her first night. Who knew what her mother-in-law might say to her.

With her swollen red eyes and tear marks on her face, Jessica said, "You shouldn't have come."

Amelia gave her best friend a warm smile. "I can never leave you behind."

Patrick took out a cigarette packet from his pocket, took one out and put it in his mouth. After lighting it and taking a deep breath, Patrick asked impatiently, "So, what about that rope?"

Jessica nodded. "Yes. I'll get it right away!"

All of them worked together to tie Jeff up, Owen, who got Patrick's call, led the team up the stairs and shouted, "Freeze! Put your hand up!"

A shower of green dots swept through the crowd and finally landed on Patrick's forehead. Holding the gun, Owen was stunned and hurriedly raised his arm with his fist clenched. "Hold your fire!"

"Hey brother," Patrick slowly raised his hand and said in no hurry and with no fear, "Help me."

Amelia was amused by Patrick's reaction. Looking at Jeff being tied up in the corner of the wall, it was all Patrick's doing and he still dared to "yell for help"?

Owen took off his explosive- proof mask and seemed agitated, "What's going on here?"

Before answering Patrick's call, Owen was having a good time with Nora. When he heard that his baby brother was in trouble, he jumped out of bed and geared up in his bedroom, leaving Nora there.

To not alert their parents, Owen snuck out out of the house, summoned his team and called for ambulance. All those efforts were spent just to 'save' Patrick!

Patrick put his arm around Owen's shoulder with a smile, "What's wrong brother? Are you mad?"

"Are you kidding me? Do you want to scare me to death? If anything happens to you, I have to answer to mom and dad!"

Patrick chuckled, seemed to feel satisfied with the outcome.

Owen couldn't risk the possibility of his younger brother and sister- in- law getting hurt at all. He signalled his team and escorted Jeff, a suspected terrorist, to the police car downstairs.

"Let's move out!"

"Yes Sir!"

Owen's was ready to leave when Patrick caught up with him. "Hey, brother."
