Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 198

Patrick smiled coldly and said, "You remember it clearly."

Amelia smiled bitterly. She knew Milton at her mother's funeral. How could she not remember it clearly?

Patrick asked stiffly, "Has he... ever chased after you in the past 20 years?"

"Yes." Looking at Patrick's fierce eyes, Amelia said honestly, "But I don't have any other thoughts except treating him as my good friend."

"You don't have any other thoughts?" Patrick was deeply suspicious, "I think you keep him on the back burner."

Amelia spoke for Milton, "There are many women who like Milton, okay? You're insulting him!"

Patrick said with cold eyes, "Perhaps, in his eyes, those women can't be compared with you."

Amelia touched the position of her heart and sighed, "That only shows that I am too charming. As my husband, do you feel stressed? But don't worry, since I have married you, I won't fall in love with others."

After hearing her words, Patrick was no more angry and was amused.

It seemed that if he continued to interfere her friendship with Milton, it would prove that he cared about her very much and she would be so smug.

His eyes became cold, "You can leave now." "Okay." After nodding, Amelia really turned around and left.

After she left, Patrick leaned on the sofa and thought in his heart, "If Sissi didn't insist on leaving me, how many would we have been together?"

A few days later.

When Patrick went to Meggie's house to tell her father the findings of Owen's investigation, he saw how Meggie had become.

Her beautiful hair had become dry, her ruddy cheeks had become lifeless, and she looked so frightened, especially when she saw a stranger.

During this period of time, her mother cried everyday and couldn't fall asleep at night. Her father not only needed to take care of Meggie, but also worried about his wife's health. He was so tired that he told Patrick that he wanted to resign.

"No! You're the elder founding member of Roxxon. Without you, I'm worried that the employees would be not of one mind." Patrick said disapprovingly.

Meggie's father looked at Meggie, who was rolling on the ground with a cat in the garden, and said tiredly, "Mr. Hopper, thank you so much for helping me find out the reason of Meg's disappearance and closing down Money Cabinet! And thank you for asking me to stay in Roxxon, but I am really tired. I have been working for half a lifetime. It's time for me to spend time with my wife and daughter."

Patrick thought for a while and said seriously, "Since you said so, I won't force you to stay. You can stay at home and take care of Meg. As for the company, you don't have to come to work, but you can get your salary as usual."

Meggie's father suddenly felt a little guilty. He got angry with Patrick a few days ago, because he suspected that it was Patrick who kidnapped Meggie, but Patrick was so kind and helped him a lot.

"Mr. Hopper, I..." Before he could finish his words, his expression suddenly changed as he got up and rushed to the garden, "Meg!"

Patrick looked over and found that Meggie, who was playing with the pet cat, threw the cat to the ground crazily. She looked insane and abnormal.

Her father wanted to grab her hand, but she scratched his neck with her sharp fingernails. It could be seen that Meggie didn't even recognize her family when she got insane.

Patrick, who caused Meggie to become like this, was smoking leisurely in the large living room. He watched the scene that happened not far away with great interest.

In the evening, the Land of Fragrance.
