Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 540

Hearing that Dr. Scarlett was willing to stay, Amelia's tense face relaxed finally. In fact, she also felt guilty for Dr. Scarlett. If it were not because of her, Dr. Scarlett's mobile phone would not have been seized by Huxton. She was happy to be able to fight for her now.

Although she was delighted, she could not help but feel strange and asked, "By the way, why did you suddenly call me 'Miss Amelia'? Haven't you always called me 'Mrs. Hopper'?"

Scarlett smiled wryly and said, "I addressed you as 'Mrs. Hopper' because I regarded you as an attachment to Mr. Patrick... Do you understand what I mean?"

Amelia was taken aback by surprise and asked subconsciously, "So... are you starting to take me seriously now?"

Dr. Scarlett did not hesitate and hummed in agreement.

The two women looked at each other and smiled, a special friendship cultivating between them. However, the man in the study was so enraged that he could not fall asleep. He wanted to rush downstairs and torment Amelia, but there was no

suitable reason for him to do so.

Just then, Patrick thought of a way to vent his anger!

He walked around his desk, took out Amelia's phone from his drawer, and dialed Milton's number.

Milton from the other side of the phone sounded a little out of breath, and there were noises too. "Hello, Amelia? What's the matter?"

Patrick answered frivolously, "Director Cook, aren't you sick? How do you still have the strength to hang about outside?"

The other side fell silent, and then Milton's attitude switched abruptly at once. "Patrick! Why did you call me with Amelia's phone?"

Patrick leaned back into his executive office chair comfortably and drawled, "Oh? So this is her cell phone."

Milton gave a gruff reply, "Quit pretending! How can you not know whether it's your phone or not?"

Patrick responded, "Oh, I forgot to tell you. Amelia and I are spouses, and we are using couple phone. We would pick up each other's phone sometimes, that's nothing to be surprised about."

Milton was in an unpleasant mood in the first place. Upon hearing Patrick, he immediately exploded, "You used her phone to call me on purpose just to toy with me with your couple phones joke, didn't you? B*stard, are you looking for a fight?"

Patrick put his long legs on the desk. He held the phone in one hand and took out a cigar from the cigarette box with another. After lighting it up in his mouth, he said slowly, "Fight? Okay, right now."

Milton stood in a daze on the opposite side of the call and mumbled, "I don't have the time now!"

Patrick let out a puff of cigarette smoke and asked in a mocking tone, "Are you scared?"

"I'm not scared of you! It's because Maryanne's have been missing since last night. I'm busy looking for her!" This was the reason why Milton was panting.

In this regard, Patrick did not feel ashamed. On the contrary, he smiled, pleased, and said, "I didn't expect you to care so much about her. Then what about Amelia that you miss so much? With a new girl, you would've long forgotten about her, wouldn't you?"

Milton was flustered and began to spill, "What do you know! The sun and the moon can bear witness to my relationship with Amelia. Even if the weather threatens, our relationship won't so much rattle in the slightest. She'll understand that I'm looking for Maryanne for her parents' sake, not because I have personal feelings for her!"

Patrick captured the key points and recounted, "For

her parents? No personal feelings for her. Hah..."

When Milton came back to his senses, only then he realized that he had spilled the beans. He was both confounded and aggrieved, then pleaded him, "I warn you, don't let Amelia know what I've said. Otherwise, I'll never let go of you!"

"Don't worry. I won't tell on you," Patrick answered right away.

How could he? He could not wait for Amelia to continue to misunderstand Milton and Maryanne.

After breathing a sigh of relief, Milton said, "I don't want to talk to you anymore. I still need to find her! I'm hanging up!"

"Wait a minute." Patrick stopped him.

"What's the matter again?" Milton asked roughly.

Patrick offered, "If you come out and meet me, I'll use my connections to help you find Maryanne. What do you think?"

Milton hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Where?"

Patrick replied, "Where are you now? I'll send someone to pick you up."
