Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 144

"Firing Meggie can't solve the problem, I want to fire those top managers in the Human Resources Department who have causal attitudes towards work.

Because the new employees they hired were all gossipy and could only reply on their family backgrounds.

"Who do you want to fire?" The secretary asked.

Rubbing the tissue into a ball and throwing it into the trash can at his feet, Patrick said slowly, "The deputy manager of the Human Resources Department."

Firing the deputy manager could give the Human Resources Department a warning. It wouldn't effect the department nor make old employees unsatisfied.

The secretary nodded, then glanced at the mouse in Patrick's hand and asked in confusion, "Mr. Hopper, isn't this mouse quite clean?"

Patrick replied casually, "Meggie touched it, so I wipe it."

The secretary was speechless.

Then, Patrick threw the mouse into the trash can and said to the secretary, "Forget it, send me a new one."

In the evening, in the Land of Fragrance.

Patrick walked into the living room and heard the sound of the cooker hood in the kitchen. He put down his briefcase and walked to the kitchen. Then he found that Amelia was preparing dinner. The dress she wore was still the one she put on before going to work in the morning, which outlined her slim waist, sexy bottom, and slender legs.

Hearing the footsteps, Amelia turned around naturally, then Patrick saw the wound on her knee.

His face darkened as he strode over and grabbed the egg-striking machine in her hand. He frowned and asked, "Why don't you use a band-aid?"

Amelia said calmly, "I'm not that seriously injured. Give me the egg-striking machine. I need to cook."

Her expression was a little indifferent. Patrick asked unhappily, "Are you angry with me?"

Amelia didn't say anything, but her expression and movements were indifferent.

Patrick held her in his arms and said, "Are you blaming me for causing you so much trouble?"

"No. I'm suffering from dysmenorrhea, so I'm a little depressed."

But in Patrick's eyes, her depressed expression was more like a silent protest.

He felt a little annoyed. He didn't deliberately cause trouble for her work. After knowing that she was tripped, he immediately took some measures to help her. Wasn't that enough?

Patrick lifted her delicate chin and asked with a poker face, "You're lying to me."

There was a hint of complaint in the eyes of Amelia, "So what do you want from me?"

Hearing this, Patrick suddenly became silent.

Yeah, what did he want from her?

After marring Amelia, his life completely changed. No matter he treated Amelia well or badly, he felt uncomfortable.

He wanted to live a sweet life with Amelia, but he loved another woman in his heart, a woman that he might never forget in his life.

Patrick blinked his eyes which were filled with mixed emotions. Then he returned to normal and said, "Whether you are obedient or not, I can see you through at a glance. Don't try to fool me with a fake expression. Understand?"

Amelia's heart beat so fast. Patrick was more possessive than she thought.
