Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 578

"What are you doing here?" Patrick looked at Sissi, who was leaning against the wall, and asked with an unpleasant look, "Did the doctor allow you to get out of bed?"

Sissi let out a helpless smile. "I came out for a walk. I've been in my room all day, I'm sick of it."

Patrick put his phone back into his pocket and asked gruffly, "Then why did you knock on my door?"

"I think you're bored being stuck in your room all day too. I'm afraid that you'll be bored to death, so I came to see you." Sissi said matter-of-factly.

Patrick looked at her indifferently and said, "I have a wife. What if someone misunderstands it when you come running to me like this?"

The look in Sissi's eyes darkened. "I didn't think that much..."

"Go back to your room!" With this, Patrick slammed the door with a tiny sense of shame and anger.

Just by seeing her, he could not help but got softhearted. If he continued to be alone with her, there was not any guarantee that he would not do anything impulsive.

However, Sissi, who was blocked outside the door,

did not feel defeated. She even chuckled.

According to her understanding of Patrick, the more he lost his temper with her, the more it proved that he had her on his mind. It was just his pride that made him unable to forgive her in a short period of time.

At Land of Fragrance.

In the middle of the night, Amelia was awakened by the ringing of her phone. She grabbed her phone and found that it was from the family number of the Ramsay Family.

Raising her eyebrows, Amelia pressed the answer button and put it to her ear. "Hello?" said Amelia softly.

"Amelia! It's Aunt Alice! Daniel, he... No, it's the development zone..."

Alice's panicked voice filled Amelia's ears, turning her sleepy expression into grimness. "Did you mean that the building that Daniel had just constructed in the tourist area had...collapsed?"

"Yes... The specific situation is still unclear... The only news from the development zone is hundreds of construction workers were resting in a nearby dormitory at night... I'm afraid that they might be all buried inside..."

Upon hearing this, Amelia got a little light-headed. If possible, she hoped that it was April Fool's Day or she was still dreaming. However, Alice's sobs dragged her back to the cruel reality.

There was no time to idle around!

Amelia got out of bed as fast as she could to change. While tying up her hair, she hurried downstairs.

Huxton, who was dozing off on the sofa, immediately awakened when he heard movement coming from the stairs.

Seeing that Amelia was well dressed, Huxton asked in a clear voice, "Madam, where are you going?"

Amelia did not hide her impatience, but her thoughts were clear. She said, "The building of Apex Construction Corporation had collapsed, and the nearby construction workers may have been trapped inside. I need to get to the scene to see what's going on!"

Huxton felt that this was not trivial matter. He picked up his suit jacket on the tea table, straightened up and said, "I'll send you there."

Amelia nodded and added, "By the way, please gather all the manpower that you can. I'll be needing help!"

Just a hint from Huxton and all of the men in black came into the living room at once from all over the house. He then said, "You, call all hospitals in Northville and ask them to send ambulances to the scene. You, contact all police stations in Northville to send search dogs to find the trapped victims. As for you, contact all of the construction teams in Northville and let them bring over cranes and excavators. And you..."

After delegating a list of tasks in an orderly manner, Huxton looked back and said to Amelia, "Madam, let's go."

"Alright!" Amelia nodded her head solemnly.

When Huxton and Amelia arrived at the scene of the accident, they were met with chaos. The sirens of the police cars and ambulances rose and fell in the air, accompanied by the presence of a flock of reporters. However, they were all expelled by the relevant units, "It's very dangerous here. Nonpersonnel are prohibited from entering!"
