Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 516

It took less than one minute for this drama to end. Everyone else was paying attention to the couple on the stage except these three people.

"I won." After Lyu Zijie left, Amelia tilted her face and smiled at Patrick. She waved the business card between her two fingers and said, "He looks good and he is a big boss. If I hadn't married you, I could have made use of this opportunity to develop feeling with him. After that, the invisible girl can successfully make a little impression in front of The Ramsay Family. What do you think?"

If it was not you, I could marry someone else!

Patrick deeply understood the meaning of this sentence. Amelia did not have worry about that she could not attract a man with her beauty.

In other words, he was never her only choice! It was just because of a business marriage that they happened to run into each other.

He did not want to admit that he was not as important as he thought he was. So Patrick comforted himself at the cost of disparaging that man. "But he didn't persist for you until the end and ran away instead."

"He ran away because he recognized you. It would be strange if he didn't run away."

"So, even if he likes you, he may not necessarily be your good man." Patrick said with certainty.

"Mr. Hopper, our bet is to pretend that if I didn't know you. If it weren't for you just now, we could progress our relationship further. Don't you think so?"

Patrick could not help scolding when he recalled Lyu Zijie's lecherous expression, "You're such a slut!"

Amelia's eyes were as bright as summer flowers. She smiled and said, "There's a saying that you have to play it as it lays. Besides, you agreed to bet with me. I'll tell you what I want when we returned home."

Patrick was so angry that he started laughing. He reached out to grab Amelia's slender waist and pulled her into his embrace. He looked down and said quietly, "Just in time. When we get home, I have something to tell you as well."

Amelia's face could not stop blushing when Patrick kept letting out warm breath on her face.

When Amelia noticed that Patrick was holding her tightly, she struggled for a moment but she did not manage to escape. Beside that, he put his other hand under the table. She quickly pushed his strong arms with her small hands and glared at him, "Stop!"

Patrick raised his eyebrows and withdrew his hand.

He put his fingers under his nose and said, "It smells good."

"You!" Amelia's face was like blood red.

Alice who had been paying attention to Daniel and Brittany occasionally glanced at Amelia. Alice saw her biting her lips angrily and annoyed so she could not help but ask with concern, "Amelia, are you feeling unwell?"

"No, I'm fine." Amelia brushed the hair behind her ear in order to cover up her gaffe.

"That's good." Alice nodded and said, "Amelia, it will be the parent's speech soon. We are both Brittany's closest relatives. Can you do me a favour and walk on stage to deliver a few words?"

"Yes." It was Patrick who answered Alice's question.

Amelia glared at Patrick with anger and blamed him for talking too much. Then, she said to Alice apologetically, "Alice, I have a loose tongue. I'm afraid of saying something wrong, so I won't go."

"Are you? Why do I think you're a good talker?" Patrick was in charge of solving the problem.

Amelia was speechless.

Alice looked encouragingly at Amelia and said, "Amelia, as long as you promise me to go on the stage and say a few words, I will be responsible if you say anything wrong."
