Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 29

The father-in-law trusted his daughter-in-law without a shadow of doubt and said, "My dear, come and be seated. I've got something for you."

Amelia walked to Howard and sat down beside him.

Howard said earnestly, "Patrick and Amelia, you are a married couple now, so you should learn to live by yourselves."

Amelia thought maybe he wanted them to move out, just like his elder brother and sister-in-law? Amelia responded, "Dad, I'll be with Patrick wherever he is."

"I agree." Patrick absolutely agreed. After moving out, he could do whatever he wanted without the interference of his father.

Satisfied, Howard smiled and handed a small box to Amelia and said, "The keys to your new house - there you go. Now you are a hostess and keep it well."

Amelia looked down at the box and saw a line of words on the surface, indicating the address of the villa.

Oh my! The house was located in the golden section of Northville. How generous this father-in-law was!

Reading the address, Patrick's face turned livid and said, "Dad, you know I've another plan for this house..."

Before Patrick could finish his sentence, Howard blurted out, sounding as if he was giving him a warning.

Amelia felt the repression of Patrick and asked, "Anything wrong with this house?"

Howard tried to avoid the embarrassment and said to his son, "There was always something in the past and you have to learn to let go of it. Just look ahead and focus on what is with you."

Patrick frowned and responded, "What if the one in my mind is irreplaceable?"
