Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 437

Patrick looked down at her. "The Ramsays want to shackle Daniel, but getting him and Brittany engaged is not enough. The best way is to get them married so that Daniel would finally be a member of the Ramsay Family."

Amelia frowned. "Can't we tell everyone Daniel's true color and drive him out of Apex?"

"You think everyone is looking forward to seeing Daniel ruined as you do? How many employees does Apex have? They are all counting on making a fortune from Daniel's project. Not to mention Brittany. She's a typical fool in love. Even if you catch Daniel redhanded, can you guarantee that Brittany is going to break off the engagement?"

"To say the least, even if you expel Daniel as you like, someone else will soon take over the company. Are you sure that the new leader would be a man of integrity? Don't forget that business people are greedy by nature. Even a child knows they are profiteers."

"You're right!" Amelia was enlightened by Patrick's analysis. She began to look for her cell phone. "I'll call Alice now!"

Patrick raised his eyebrows. "Alice?" Amelia said smoothly, "Alice Green! My stepmother!" Patrick scrutinized her face. "Don't you always hate her? When did you become the first-name basis?" They stared at each other for a few seconds before Amelia broke eye contact first. "With so many things happened to my dad this year, Alice has never given up on him. She even moved to the hospital to take care of him all the time. I... I can't... hate her anymore!"

"I don't feel it fair for my dead mother if I call Alice her name, but I can't hate her as I used to do. Yes, I can't forgive her for what she has done to my mother, but I'm also thankful for her love for my father..."

Hearing her, Patrick narrowed his eyes. His feeling was almost the same as that of Amelia. On the one hand, he hated Howard's betrayal of Eve. On the other hand, he couldn't pretend that Howard was not his father. Whether he should choose to hate him or forgive him had always been the reason for his recent sleeplessness.

Noting his sudden silence, Amelia blinked and asked, "Mr. Hopper, what's wrong?"

"Nothing." Patrick gave her a smile, not wanting his negative feelings to get to her.

As expected, Amelia didn't pay much to it. She picked up the phone she had just spotted and said to Patrick, "I'll call her and ask when Daniel and Brittany will hold the wedding."

Finding no reluctance on her face, Patrick turned up the corner of his eyes and said, "Okay."

The phone rang.

"Hello, Amelia?"

"Er, Al..." Amelia found it too difficult to call her as Alice, so she skipped this address and asked directly, "Are you available now? I want to discuss something with you."

"Sure. I just came back from the hospital. I am going to take a bath and get changed before going back."

"Well, here's the thing. Brittany and Daniel have been engaged for almost half a year, and Brittany is old enough to get married. So I have been thinking that since Daniel is off at work while Brittany is having a holiday during Christmas, how about we make good use of the chance and get them married on the right day?"

After a long pause, Alice cried out in joy. "Amelia, in fact, Brittany has wanted to get married a long time ago. It's just that your father and I were worried that you might find it annoying, so we kept putting it off. I'm so glad now that you've brought it up on your own! I totally agree with your proposal. Holding their wedding on Christmas is not only joyful for them but would also cheer up your father. It couldn't be any

better..."
