Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 375

Now Patrick was like a wanderer in the desert struggling to find water. Even if it was just an illusion, he was willing to wallow in it.

The next day, when Amelia woke up, she found Patrick holding her and slept peacefully. His hot body had returned to normal temperature, but the bloodstains on his hands were still startling to her.

Sighing softly, she picked up the quilt and decided to get up, only to find herself restrained by the strong and powerful arms on her waist. So she gently removed them, got out of bed, and walked into the bathroom.

When she emerged again, she heard the phone ringing from the coat that had been thrown to the ground by Patrick. Amelia bent down and quickly picked it up.

Before she could speak, the voice came from the phone eagerly. "Amelia, your father woke up this morning!"

After staring blankly for a few seconds, Amelia asked breathlessly, "Really?"

"It's true, but..."

"I'll be there right now!" Overjoyed, Amelia cut short what Alice was going to say.

When Alice realized it, there was only the beeping sound from the phone.

This was great! Dad finally woke up!

Amelia put on her clothes happily and tried to ask Patrick to go with her. But he had been worn out by the effect of the drug, so no matter how loudly Amelia shouted, Patrick didn't respond.

Helplessly, Amelia had to call the front-desk personnel first and asked them to bring her some band-aids. Then she opened the package and put them to Patrick's fists with order.

After that, she bowed her head to kiss him on the back of his hand and said with concern, "Please, even for the sake of your family, you should take good care of yourself."

Not knowing how much time had passed, when Patrick opened his heavy eyelids, he found himself in an unfamiliar place.

His thoughts stopped for a few seconds, and the memories of last night came back to his mind like a film...

He still remembered that he had met Cynthia in the F&S Club and accidentally drank a Bloody Mary. After that, like a piece of meat on a roasting rack, he had been tortured. But he couldn't remember what had happened next...

Glancing at the messy quilt and pillow, on which even lay a long hair from a woman, his heart sank. He hadn't lost control and slept with Cynthia, had he?

"D*mn it!" He should not have drunk the wine brought by someone else last night! If he had slept with Cynthia, he would let both Cynthia and Amelia down!

He pressed his hands on his forehead out of annoyance and saw a few band-aids. Bewildered for a few moments, he suddenly remembered how he had hit the wall with force to dampen his desire.

The reason he had done so was that he didn't want to do anything that would hurt Amelia. He had really... tried his best.

At the hospital.

Approaching her father's ward delightfully, Amelia looked up and noticed several strangers gathering at the door. After Alice's introduction, they turned out to be the senior managers of the Apex Construction Corporation.

When it came to the interests of her father's company, Amelia could not help but say sweetly,

"Good morning."
