Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 306

Amelia was frozen.

Patrick glanced at his wristwatch with no expression. Two minutes had passed. Why did she take such a long time to talk?

After a while, Amelia asked, "That umbrella... did you really give it to me?"

"Well, I just dropped it off. It was a sunny day in Hawoi City, and your man was too busy picking up other women to worry about you."

Amelia finally understood why he scolded Patrick when she ran into Hobart at the restaurant because he encountered Patrick teaching Loraine how to swim.

"Hobart, since you were there to deliver an umbrella, why don't you give it to me personally?"

"I just happened to accompany a customer that day. Besides, I don't think you want to see me."

It was a joke, but Hobart made her feel a little sad. Amelia said guiltily, "Thank you, I'll return the umbrella to you sometime later."

She was obviously refusing, but Hobart said, "Well, it just so happens that I'm in the hospital because of Florence, so you can come right over and return the umbrella and tan me on the way."

Oh, he was in the hospital...

Amelia was too embarrassed to refuse anymore and said, "Address!"

"Hey? Are you coming?"

Amelia feigned ruthlessness and said, "If you don't tell me, I don't care if you live or die."

Hobart quickly gave the address and said, "I like cherries, not apples, and besides, I'm allergic to lilies."

Amelia was about to ask, "Why are you talking about this?" and then realized that this was Hobart's "visiting list" for her, in case she made a mistake.

Hobart was actually quite attentive, and she responded, "Okay, I got it."

"By the way, do you need to check in with Patrick when you come to see me?" Hobart's emphatic question.

"Of course." What Amelia didn't say was that Patrick was standing within one step of her.

Hobart thought for a moment and said, "Then you can tell him that his sister is now in the detention center, and as a relative, he'd better bail her out as soon as possible, because the weather has cooled down considerably today.

Amelia said politely, "I will tell him, thank you."

Hobart smiled with an ulterior motive. "You're welcome."

When Amelia hung up the phone, Patrick asked, " Hobart asked you to meet him?"

"Uh... Yes." His fierce eyes made her feel that she was going to be hanged on the gallows.

Patrick asked in an unacceptable tone, "You f*cking agree?"

Amelia quickly said, "Do you remember Florence went out last night? She was drunk and ran around on the road, and Hobart almost bumped into her..."

Under the nervous eyes of Patrick, Amelia explained as soon as possible, "Fortunately, Hobart avoided her, but he accidentally hit the wire pole. It's said that he had a concussion. I think this is the result of my indulgence in Florence anyway. I also want to take the opportunity to return the umbrella to him..."

After considering the tone of Amelia's conversation with Hobart, Florence should be safe. Patrick said, "Hobart was injured because of my sister, and I should be the one to visit him. Doesn't Grandma have back pain? You stay at home with my grandma."

Amelia agreed but was a little skeptical that Patrick's personality would actually visit Hobart. "By the way, Hobart says Florence is in custody and needs a family member to bail her out, so... you go."
