Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 574

Amelia frowned in protest. She had a feeling that Patrick was trying to find fault with her with this phone call.

She glanced at Huxton and suggested, "Can't you tell him that I'm not here?"

Unexpectedly, Huxton was surprisingly good to negotiate with this time. "Alright, I'll try."

Amelia nodded. Just as she made her way to the kitchen with a relief, Huxton's voice sounded again, "Madam, sir told you to drop the act. He knows you're home."

Amelia's expression stiffened.

Huxton relayed Patrick's message from the other side of the phone and said, "Sir said that if you don't pick up his call, then it must be because you're too busy. He don't want you to be over-exhausted, so he has decided to help you resign from the company."

Amelia clenched her fists and rushed back to Huxton. She took the receiver from him and asked angrily, "Patrick Hopper! What the hell do you want?"

Patrick was so infuriated that his face paled. She was the one who did not answer his calls several times, and now she still dared to shout at him.

"Amelia, you're so great now, huh? How dare you talk to me like that!"

Amelia took a few short breaths, "Spit what you wanted to say! I don't have much time!"

Patrick retorted viciously, "Not much time? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?"

Hearing such great malice, Amelia put the receiver back to its holder without reluctance!

Huxton raised his eyebrows and asked, "Madam, aren't you afraid that sir will make you quit your job?"

Amelia threw caution to the wind and replied, "It doesn't matter. If he makes me resign, I can find another job."

Huxton said bluntly, "But as long as sir gives an order, you'll have nowhere to go."

Amelia glared at Huxton. "Can you stop putting me off? I'm already in a very tight spot."

At the primary school at Timothy Village.

Patrick stood at the first-years staff office door and felt his chest heaved and undulated violently. He did not expect to be hung up on over and over again, and it was the same person who kept hanging up on him!

"No way! I have to go back to Northville as soon as possible. Otherwise, Amelia will wreak havoc!" thought Patrick.

Just as Patrick was staring at his phone, a girl in faded school uniform ran over to him. She mumbled with her little dirty finger in her mouth, "Uncle..."

Hearing her delicate voice calling him uncle, Patrick subconsciously turned his head and found the girl looking up at him with a pair of innocently pure, big eyes.

He could not help but restrain his anger and asked, "What's the matter?"

The little girl took out her index finger that was wet with her saliva and pointed in a direction. "Teacher Sissi is moving the books in the library... The books are heavy... Need Uncle's help."

Patrick felt like he had just woken up from a dream. Earlier, he had been so engrossed in venting his anger on Amelia that he had completely forgotten that he had come here with a mission.

The teaching team that came to the village brought a lot of books with them. However, due to the lack of manpower, Sissi came to his room early this morning and sincerely asked him for help.

He would never refuse her requests for help!

Even to this day, he still maintained this habit.

"Uncle?" Seeing that Patrick was motionless, the little girl called out to him softly.

Patrick came back to his senses. "Yes, alright. I will be right there."

At the library.
