Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 471

"Hmm," Patrick was satisfied. He had always liked smart people.

As Hayden followed behind the housekeeper, and appeared in front of Patrick, he raised his eyebrows, "Did you go out?"

Hayden was going to pull the chair but he stopped and exclaimed in a low voice, "No way

Brother Patrick! You don't even know whether I went out? You don't really care about me!"

The housekeeper tried to ease the situation by saying, "Mr. Hayden, the house is so big and our Mr. Hopper is a busy man. That's why he didn't realize it. You'd better tell our master first before you go out next time."

"I got it! I was just kidding." Hayden answered and then sat opposite Patrick. He stared at the Patrick's pasta and said with regret, "If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have gone out to eat. It's expensive and not delicious at all!"

When Patrick heard Hayden's complaint, he put down his chopsticks, "Didn't I say that the housekeeper is coming?"

Hayden said gloomily, "You told me clearly, 'Wait for

Amelia to come downstairs and make breakfast'. I thought that Amelia was at home. However, when I went out to throw the trash, I ran into her. It made me think that I had experienced something supernatural."

Patrick found it both funny and annoying. "You really hold your grudge. Do you need me to apologize to you?"

Hayden licked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "I can't accept your apology. However, I think it's fine if you could compensate me with a plate of pasta."

When Patrick heard this, he winked at the housekeeper. The housekeeper immediately went to the kitchen to get Hayden some pasta.

After a while, a plate of delicious pasta was placed in front of Hayden. Then Hayden suddenly asked a strange question, "By the way, how can you let your wife stay overnight alone in the mountains? Aren't you afraid that she will be in danger?"

Patrick's easy-going expression became slightly tense. "What did Amelia tell you?"

"Oh! I asked her why she didn't sleep at home last night. Amelia said that she climbed the mountain yesterday and stayed overnight at the top because she wanted to watch the sunrise. I was shocked when I heard, so I asked her why she didn't ask you to hike with her. She didn't reply."

After a while, Hayden looked at Patrick carefully. When he noticed Patrick's expression did not change, he said, "After all Amelia is just a young woman. What if she was in danger on the mountain? You'd better spend more time with her in the future."

Patrick's thin lips lifted slightly. "Looks like she's been wronged."

This was Amelia's way of getting sympathy. Just a few words and people would think that he was a bad person. It made her looked like a pitiful girl staying with a bad guy. Afterwards she would hide proudly in the dark and watch everyone accusing him of fickleness.

On the other hand, Hayden, who did not know that his words had misled Patrick, finished the pasta and said. "Wow! It tastes good. Aunty, your cooking skill is amazing!"

The housekeeper squinted and smiled. "There's more in the kitchen if you like it."

Patrick had no appetite. He had already got up and headed upstairs.

As Amelia had just fmshed showering and walked out of the bathroom, she heard a loud bang from the side. The noise scared her so much that her body

shook.

She turned her head stiffly to look at the person glaring at her angrily in the doorway. Who else could it be other than Patrick?
