Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 243

"Thank you," Amelia's eyes filled with tears momentarily from emotion, but she lowered her head so Howard wouldn't notice, "The doctor said my dad is having a stroke."

Howard sighed lightly, "George is a sincere man so he will be well rewarded by God. I'm sure he will recover soon."

"Yes, he will." Amelia nodded sagely.

Eve turned around and actually found her husband, her son all in the middle of a conversation with Amelia. She got a little angry and purposely stomps her heels into the ground, hoping to get the attention of the three of them.

When Amelia saw Howard, she was sitting in a chair, cleaning George's body while talking to Howard.

At this time, seeing Eve again, Amelia quickly put down George's hand, stood up from the chair, and greeted her in a panic.

Amelia was now really afraid of Eve, that day in the cafe in front of the outsiders and Howard, Eve had the courage to hit her directly followed by a lot of arguing and noise. Amelia worried that Eve probably was going to do it again in the hospital.

Eve touched the jade bracelet in her hand and even didn't look at Amelia. She said, "All right, don't look like you are pitiful, as if I am bullying you."

No, that actually was true. She was bullying Amelia.

Both Howard and Patrick came up with this idea at the same time.

Patrick smiled skillfully and said, "Mom, you misunderstood, Amelia was just flattered to see you come over in person."

Eve listened with amusement, then glancing at George lying on the bed in disgust, "What about Apex Construction Corporation now that your father is like this? Why don't you just let Roxxon buy it. It'll give your family company something to fall back on."

The three of them felt that was a little too much and then scowled at the same time, Amelia resisting the urge to roll her eyes at Eve, "You're being harsh," she thought.

Howard stared at Eve unhappily, Eve felt clueless and stared back, "What, am I wrong? The words are hard to hear, but I'm all for their family."

Howard tugged Eve aside and said glumly, "Can you do less judging? Amelia's going through a sad time."

Eve responded indifferently, "Can't you feel her sad even looking at her now? she's probably happy inside when Patrick is with her."

Eve's words could be felt as cold and cruel. She had really changed, becoming prone to jealousy and learning how to hurt someone to the greatest extent possible. She was a far cry from the elegant look he remembered.

Howard was so disappointed in Eve that he even became numb to her harsh words, "Come on, let's go home." "What did you say?" Eve turned to be stunned.

Howard looked at her like she was a stranger, "I say let's go home and leave the kids alone."

Eve was delighted to be able to end the visit so soon, and she took Howard by the arm and left the room before she could analyze his change in attitude.

"Sorry." Patrick reached out his hand and shook Amelia's cold hand. He whispered, "My mother... didn't do this before."

Amelia was silent for a few seconds, and then she held Patrick's hand back. Her hand was smaller than his, and it was even fair than his. It seemed that they were a combination of tenderness and strength.

"It's all right," she finally spoke with a husky voice that made Patrick feel pity, "I don't think Eve would have come over to see my dad tonight if she hadn't volunteered. She was being kind anyway."

Patrick looked at her for a while. She was indeed a very sweet woman and it reassured him, "It's good that you think so."
