Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 562

Two days later.

The holidays was coming to an end. Amelia was going back to work. However, Huxton told her that he could not let her out without Patrick's order.

Amelia frowned. "Wait. Didn't he tell me that as long as you or the man in black followed me, I could go out? Why did he change the rules now?"

Huxton said, "Before Mr. Hopper left, he told me that if he wasn't here, you would use the opportunity to run away. So he ordered me to keep an eye on you. I thought about it and decided that the best way to keep an eye on you would be just to keep you at home."

Amelia was depressed. "Mr. Fuller, I have to start working from today. If you don't let me out, my position as the chief manager will be handed over. And what about my salary? I still have to make money to support the family!"

Huxton thought in his heart, it was really unreliable for Amelia to 'make money to support the family'.

Amelia felt that this statement was not very convincing as well. She said, "I mean, I need to make some pocket money so that I don't have to spend

your master's money on everything."

Huxton said faintly, "Mr. Hopper is willing to let you spend his money."

Amelia rolled her eyes and said, "Well, why don't you call and ask him if he agrees to let me go to work?"

Huxton thought it might work so he took out his phone from his pocket and dialed Patrick's number.

After a while, Huxton took his phone off his ear and said seriously, "I can't reach him."

Amelia frowned her brows. "What do you mean by 'can't reach him'?"

Huxton says doubtfully: "His phone is probably out of battery..."

"Probably?" Amelia expressed her doubts. She did not want any accident to happen to Patrick.

"I think he must be so busy that he forgot to charge his phone. I'll call him again." Huxton looked calm but he was worried as well.

Amelia mumbled to herself, "Is it okay for him to go to such a dangerous place alone?"

Just like what Eve had said on the phone, Patrick had never live a suffering life since he was a kid. Now he had to go to such a remote mountainous area and landslide would probably happen at any time. So, she was really worried about it.

Huxton said, "Madam, don't worry. Our manpower and supplies have been there for the past two days. I believe Mr. Hopper will return home after he confirmed that the secretary is safe."

Amelia nodded, "We can take turns to call him.

Maybe his phone will be connected at any time."

"Yes!" When Huxton saw Amelia turned and readied to go upstairs, he paused and suddenly asked, "Madam, can you promise me one thing?"

Amelia turned and asked, "What's the matter?"

Huxton seemed to have made up his mind. He twitched his lips and said, "After you finished work, please return home immediately. Don't put me in a difficult position."

Amelia's eyes opened widely, "Did you agree to let me go to work?"

Huxton looked at her and said, "I hope you won't let me regret the decision that I made today."

At Roxxon Corporation.

"Good morning, madam!"

"Madam, you look good today."
