Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 572

At Land of Fragrance.

When they got home, Dr. Scarlett was already waiting forthem in the small garden outside. Amelia was surprised and asked, "Dr. Scarlett, didn't I tell you that there's no need to come to work these few days?"

She had planned to stay with Patrick in the village for a while, but the plan changed, and she came back on the very same day. Amelia did not expect that Dr. Scarlett had also returned.

Dr. Scarlett stared hostilely at the young man behind Amelia and said, "It's your husband's subordinate who told me to come."

"Ah, you mean Huxton?" Amelia finally realized that it was Dr. Scarlett who Huxton contacted back in the car.

Huxton interjected in no hurry, "Yes. Since madam has returned home, it's kind of impossible for Dr. Scarlett to continue her paid vacation."

Dr. Scarlett clicked her tongue and told Amelia in seriousness, "Miss Amelia, if you need anything in the future, you should call me yourself. There are some voices that I would gag at the sound of it!

Also, you can go ahead and deduct my wages for yesterday. I don't want to accept anything given to me unwillingly!"

Amelia was a little confused. Why did she feel that there was some arguments between these two in front of her?

Huxton glanced at Dr. Scarlett and said, "Madam didn't have a good rest last night. How long more do you want her to stay outside and talk to you?"

Dr. Scarlett responded with anger, "Then you'd better hurry up and unlock the door! The key isn't with me!"

Huxton said with a poker face, "The men in black are guarding at home. What do you need the key for?"

Dr. Scarlett added airily, "Then go on and press the doorbell. Otherwise, your madam will get cold, and I won't be the one who will be blamed."

"That's enough! Stop arguing!" Even Amelia, who was sandwiched between them, was getting a headache. "I'm going to ring the doorbell!"

Dr. Scarlett said, "No need!"

Huxton said, "I'll go!"

Dr. Scarlett was taken back and glowered at Huxton. "F*ck! You did it on purpose, didn't you? I've already said I'm ringing the doorbell! Get out of here!"

Huxton maintained his spot and said, "Didn't you say you don't want to do it? Leave it to me then."

Dr. Scarlett put her hands on her hips and glared at Huxton. "When did you see that I'm not willing to do it? You idiot!"

Seeing that they were back to bickering again, Amelia shook her head, walked in between them, and rang the doorbell.

After a while, the door opened. Amelia turned back and said to the couple who were staring furiously into each other's eyes, "Stop arguing, come in."

"Who's arguing with her/him?" Huxton and Scarlett retorted simultaneously.

In the bedroom.

As soon as Amelia pulled open the curtains, her cell phone rang. She took it out from her pocket and saw that it was from Patrick.

Looking at the incoming phone call, Amelia suppressed the urge to decline the call and pressed down on the answer button.

"Hello?"

"Mrs. Hopper... Are you awake?"

Amelia subconsciously looked at the clock and found that it was only seven o'clock in the morning. She answered in a slightly nasal voice, "Yea, what

about you?"

Patrick replied, "Me too."

Amelia followed up, "Why did you get up so early today?"

Patrick responded, "I promised to give a speech to the children in primary school in the village today, so I got up earlier."

Amelia said indifferently, "Oh..."
