Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 229

Amelia stepped forward as she tried to shake Shawn's hand.

Her heel snapped off in the next second and she leaned forward towards Shawn.

Amelia's only thought at this moment was, "Hollysh*t..."

Fortunately, a hand reached out in time and held her arm firmly to take her away from Shawn.

Shawn kept his hand out to catch Amelia, who was ready to fall on him the last second, and was carried away by Patrick the next, he thought, "What a piece of good luck."

It was really lucky.

The reporters hadn't completely evacuated the scene, and if Amelia had fallen into Shawn's arms at that moment, it would have been written off as her initiating the seduction of Shawn, and the conference would have been much less clarifying.

Ursula was equally tense for Shawn, and after seeing Amelia fall to Montpelier Patrick's side, he rushed to Shawn and said, "Let's get out of here."

As soon as Shawn left, due to the presence of other outsiders, Patrick dispensed with Amelia's hand, and before he left he said indifferently, "Be careful."

Patrick was extremely cold and completely emotionless, and Amelia knew that the unexpected near miss she'd just had would have a very bad effect, and she said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'll take care of it."

Patrick was going to just walk away, but when he heard Amelia's pitiful voice, he couldn't help but turned back to her and said, "Follow me."

"I..." Amelia bit her lip in embarrassment, her gaze dropping to her floor- length dress, from an outsider's perspective they couldn't see her broken heels.

To maintain her balance, she was now standing on one foot on tiptoe, tilting like an out- of- control puppet.

"What's wrong with you?" Patrick asked impatiently.

Milton had been friends with Amelia for years and instantly recognized her discomfort, unlike Patrick and Shawn, he was different enough to talk to Amelia without necessarily attracting the attention of the press.

Milton stepped forward to Amelia and asked gently, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Amelia replied thankfully, "I'm having a little problem with my shoes."

Milton smiled a gentle smile, "Then I'll help you to the lounge and have someone buy you a new pair of shoes."

"Thank you." Amelia finally felt reassured, Milton was really her lucky star.

In the resting room.

Amelia sat down on the couch with Milton's help, then there was a "bang" at the door and someone opened it with great force.

Milton cocked an eyebrow and scoffed at the man who opened the door, "Mr. Hopper, why are you so rude?"

Patrick simply ignored Milton's sarcasm and stared with pride at a surprised looking Amelia, "Here are the shoes you want."

Afterward, he threw the shoebox to the ground.

Amelia answered with a jaw-dropping, "You... you buy the shoes so fast..."

Patrick was silent, because it was not that he was quick to buy shoes, but he was quick to get them, and after hearing that her heel had broken, he immediately returned to his seat and grabbed a pair of shoes he had prepared earlier in the day.
