Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 54

After Patrick had left, Amelia cursed herself for officiousness and then went to the City Management Office to pay the penalty.

Coming out of the Office, she saw two familiar figures outside a store.

It was Patrick!

And... Cynthia?

Through the glass window, Amelia saw them talking to the clerk in front of the counter. Judging from the posture, it was obvious that Patrick was protecting Cynthia.

Seeing this, Amelia felt annoyed and unconsciously pursed her red lips. At this time, it happened that Jessica called her and asked her for help in the coffee bar.

After saying yes, Amelia left as if she had saw nothing.

Inside the store.

Cynthia looked at Patrick with helplessness in her eyes and said, "Brother Patrick, I came here to buy my father some supplements without expecting that I would be accused of theft by the clerk."

Upon hearing this, the clerk sneered and said, "Miss, if you didn't steal, why the alarm was sounded on you? You'd better be honest and return us what you stole. Otherwise, you can't afford to compensate!"

Listening for a long time, Patrick seriously asked

Cynthia, "Are you sure you didn't take anything without paying from this store?"

Cynthia almost shouted out, "Of course not. Although I am poor, I never steal!"

"Okay." Patrick calmly said to the clerk, "Just call the police. Well just be waiting for them here. Even if you want to search her body, you'd better ask a policewoman to do it."

Finishing the sentence, he sat down with Cynthia on the chairs.

The businessman couldn't bear it and immediately called the police.

After a while, the police arrived. After the search, they found that it was a label stuck to Cynthia's shoe sole, whose serial code hadn't been scanned and the system alarmed automatically when she stepped on the yellow line.

The clerk was shameless with apology and Patrick didn't care about that. He paid the bill for Cynthia and asked, "I drop you home?"

Facing such a considerate man, Cynthia felt amorous, replying with a tender smile, "Thank you, brother Patrick!"

In the coffee bar.

"It's crazy! Two guests were arguing with each other and then left without their baby? How ridiculous!"

Comforting the crying baby girl in her arm, while busy in the kitchen, Jessica complained to Amelia.

Coming out of the kitchen with porridge, Amelia sat down face to face with Jessica. She blew on the porridge with a small spoon and fed it into the mouth of the baby girl who had not yet had sufficient teeth.

With food in the stomach, the baby girl stopped crying. Looking at the skinny figure and the clear eyes, Amelia said, "Maybe you are wrong. Perhaps the parents intentionally left the child in your bar."

Jessica was stunned and said, "I think not. Who would be willing to throw away such a beautiful baby..."

Amelia explained, "Some reasons like, sexual discrimination, congenital disability, can't afford to raise her up...."

A faint pain flashed across Jessica's eyes. Thinking twice, she said, "If what you said is true, then it proves that this child is fated to be with me. Let me adopt her!"

Amelia advised, "If that's the case, you have to make sure that she is abandoned. Then, you have to prove to the court that you have the ability to raise her up. It takes time."

After saying that, hearing the baby girl's crying, Amelia quickly took another spoon of porridge and fed it to the girl.

Noticing Jessica's intention, Amelia continued advising, "You should first advertise her photo on media, trying to look for her parents. If no one asks for it, you can send her to the orphanage."
