Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 389

When almost everyone was concerned about Eve's condition, Amelia stood alone in a quiet corner, lost in thought.

Howard glanced at her and found that she was in a daze. He could not help but come up to her and ask, "Amelia, what are you thinking about?"

Hearing his voice, Amelia collected her thoughts quickly.

Looking at Howard's experienced, calm eyes, she blurted out her worries, "I was wondering if I have done the wrong thing."

Howard was surprised. "Why do you think so?"

Distressed, Amelia replied, "Because everyone around me told me that I did the wrong things."

After a moment's silence, Howard said gently, "Both you and Patrick were right. You were just looking at the thing from different perspectives.

Understandably, he was protecting his mother, and you were concerned about your friends."

Amelia was suddenly relieved at that. But then she was a little discouraged again at the thought of Jessica's attitude toward her. "But the friend who I've tried my best to protect blamed me for not

telling her the truth in advance."

Howard sighed. "This is the first time I've seen Jessica. Jocelyn talks about her from time to time. According to Jocelyn, I thought that kid would be very reasonable. I didn't expect her to say something so disappointing today. I can see that she's very selfish. You've done so much for her, but she is heartless and lays the blame on you. Why do you have to punish yourself with others' faults?"

Amelia said sadly, "Jessica has been my friend for many years. I'm sure she is a good person." She sighed. "In the end, it's because I couldn't help her."

Just as Howard was about to comfort her by saying "you've tried", he heard a cold voice behind him, "Mom tried to kill herself by taking pills, and you were having a good chat here."

Amelia and Howard turned to the source of the voice and found Patrick curling his lips sarcastically.

At the sight of him, Amelia was in a bad mood at once. "Howard and I were going to see Eve. Why are you acting so weirdly now?"

Amelia would have kept her displeasure to herself in the past for all kinds of reasons. But now... Well, she didn't care anymore! Anyway, to Patrick, she had already been the woman who couldn't be worse.

"Amelia, let's go in," Howard said to her calmly.

When Amelia passed by Patrick without looking at him, Patrick turned cold!

The next second, Amelia felt a squeeze and pain in her wrist before her body was pulled back by Patrick.

"Howard..." She panicked and asked for help from Howard.

Howard turned around and glanced at her. He watched helplessly as she was dragged away by Patrick.

Amelia wanted to cry. She complained inwardly about Howard's "betrayal". "Aren't we on the same boat? How could Howard leave me alone to this dangerous man?" she thought.

Amelia didn't know how long she had been dragged like a sack. It wasn't until her hands and brain went numb did Patrick push her against the trunk of a tall tree in the garden of the hospital and plant a kiss of the punishments on her.
