Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 220

Amelia touched her face and thought to herself, if this cup hit her face, it would be disfiguring.

"Eve, what are you doing!" Howard's already arguing with the visitor.

Amelia trailed off to Eve, who hadn't dropped her hand, and said somewhat incredulously, "Eve? You... you actually hit me with a glass?"

"Get out of my way!" Eve pushed Howard hard out of the way and drove a few steps towards Amelia, slapping her in the face!

"You b*tch I'm telling you, the scandalous things you and Shawn have done are known all over the world!"

Eve's eyes reddened and the slap was given with such force that the right side of Amelia's face swelled up at once.

Howard, the clerks, and the nearby customers were all stunned by the scene, but fortunately, it was working hours and few Roxxon employees had time for coffee, or else Amelia was about to face another round of gossip.

Howard yanked Eve's arm and yelled, "You're crazy! Didn't I tell you to stay home? What are you doing here?"

Eve's eyes were filled with madness, "Of course you don't want me to come to Roxxon to fool around, so you secretly asked this little goblin to come to this cafe, but who am I? I'm Patrick's own mother! I asked around at the department and they told me where the b*tch was, and if you ask me, a dog would be more honest than this woman!"

"Eve, you need to talk with respect!" Amelia couldn't contain her anger, she knew that Doris couldn't have deliberately betrayed her whereabouts, so she resented Eve's words "a dog", Eve could insult her, but not her family and friends!

Eve saw that Amelia now had the nerve to talk back to her and was furious with Howard who was in front of her, "Let go! I need to..."

"You are going to hit me again, aren't you?" Amelia put the catch on for Eve, her right side of her face was now burning and hurting. With the slap she'd gotten from Eve earlier at Land of Fragrance, coincidentally she'd gotten slaps both her left and right side of her face, what a balance, she thought sarcastically.

Eve sneered, "You deserve it!"

Amelia looked at her and argued reasonably, "The reason I didn't dodge that slap earlier was that I knew your anger made you do it! But that doesn't mean I'm wrong and will let you torment me. Howard and I originally agreed to apologize to you when we get home tonight, but with the glass you just threw plus that slap, I think that's enough to amend me to you, I won't need to be condemned by you anymore!"

Howard had Eve's hands tied, stared at her, "If Amelia hadn't been quick enough to duck, you would have caused havoc! You go home and I'll give you a satisfactory explanation."

Eve's eyes were filled with hatred, she already hated the woman who stole her son and her husband's trust, how could she listen to Howard's advice, "I'm not going back! I'll ruin her face and see how she still ruins our family!"

As Amelia covered the right side of her face and hung her head, not knowing what to do, a reassuring figure appeared in the doorway...

Patrick, who had an appointment here to talk business with a client, got a serious look on his face when he saw Amelia, Howard and Eve.

He turned sideways and explained something first to his secretary, who nodded and took out his cell phone to make a call to temporarily alter the time of his conversation with the client.

Patrick then ordered the store's waiters to ask the customers to leave and then told the owner to close the store. The owner of the shop was a businessman who was dependent on Roxxon Corporation, so he dared not disobey him and did everything he was told.

Only after those were done did he come towards them.
