Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 432

Patrick's heart skipped a beat. He wanted to reject her outright, but Amelia was proud and principled. Only if Patrick respected her would he win her over. "Okay."

Had he known that she was going to pay the debt with heryear-end bonus, Patrick would have decoupled the sales department's bonus.

Feeling no pressure at all to pay her huge debts, Amelia began with a smile, "We don't have to go to work from tomorrow on. Is there any place you'd like to go? A lot of things have happened this year. I think we should have a proper rest so that we can face the coming year better!"

Was she inviting him to hang out?

Patrick soon perked up. "Where do you want to go?" "Me? I'd like mountaineering. It would be best to tent at the top of a hill at night and watch the sunrise the next morning. I haven't seen the sunrise yet. The only time I did so was with..."

"With who?" Noticing the strange pause in her tone, Patrick could not help but ask with a frown.

Amelia rushed to say, "I mean the time I went to see the sunrise with my college classmates, it rained all of a sudden in the morning. So it's a pity that we didn't seethe sunrise."

"You did have a lot of activities in your college," Patrick commented, a little sharply.

Amelia gave an awkward smile.

Daniel had always been an active club member in college. When he was free on weekends, he organized activities from time to time.

Amelia hadn't gone for the mountain with Daniel only. There were also other club members with them at that time. But to prevent Patrick from getting the wrong idea, she had better not mention Daniel...

The next second, Amelia felt pain in her cheek. She couldn't help glaring at Patrick and asked, "Why did you pinch me?"

"I couldn't help it when you are lost in thought and look as silly as that stupid dog."

What Patrick didn't say was that he didn't like the way she was distracted by Daniel. He disliked it very much!

"You are a dog!" Amelia snorted inwardly.

At the Smith's.

While Hobart and his mother were talking to each other downstairs. Maryanne was lying on her bed on the second floor biting her lips. After hesitating for a long while, she reached out for her cell phone on the nightstand and dialed the number that she had sworn never to call.

After a long time, a cold voice came from the phone, "Hello..."

Maryanne curled her lips a little gloomily, wondering how this man could be so cold.

Since their unpleasant parting from the Welcoming Chinese Hotpot Restaurant, Milton hadn't even called her yet. He was the one who had lost his temper and left her there alone, but she felt as if it was her fault!

It was a little noisy over where Milton was. He sounded to be at some pick-up joint where his voice could not be clearly heard from the hubbub. Maryanne asked anxiously despite herself, "Jerk. Where are you now?"

Milton didn't plan to hide his whereabouts at all. "I am out drinking. Any problem?"

Maryanne pouted. Just as she was about to throw a fit, she remembered something more important to tell Milton. "My brother told me that Patrick had long since married Amelia into the Hopper Family. I'm afraid you haven't found out about it yet?"

Milton was surprised for a moment before he asked coldly, "Who told him that?"
