Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 695

Ryker casually said, "Ms Ramsay, Yesterday was the first time that you did not come to work since the first day you became the president. I'm really not used to it."

Amelia curled her lips. Was Ryker trying to trick her into reporting to Kaleb?

She rolled her eyes, "Oh, yesterday my husband had suddenly decide to go to golf and I accompanied him for a whole day. I was really too busy to do anything else, so I could only apply for a leave."

Useless!

The company was at its rush hour, how could Amelia still have the mood to play golf?

Ryker sneered in his heart but he flattered, "You are really in love with each other."

"In love?" Amelia's delicate eyes and brows dropped, she could only mask her loneliness by saying so.

However, Ryker observed her carefully and noticed the reluctance on Amelia's face at a glance.

Combining it with the rumors he heard from the alleys, Ryker could not help coming up with the idea that Amelia was really unfavored.

In the silence, only the sound of Amelia raising her hand to pick up her coffee could be heard.

She lowered her head and took a small sip. Amelia's brows furrowed as she said in an inaudible manner, "The coffee today is rather bitter."

Ryker explained, "How could that be? I followed President Ramsay's instructions..."

Upon hearing that, Amelia sighed and said, "Oh? Maybe it's because I'm sad."

Ryker repeated, "Is your work being harsh on you?"

Looking into Ryker's stunned eyes, Amelia smiled and raised her hand and placed it on her heart.

"Assistant Scott, I'm referring to... my heart."

Ryker's eyes trembled. For a moment, he was lost in the temperament of Amelia who pitied herself.

But then, deep doubts followed because he did not think that he had been so close to Amelia that she would tell him how she felt.

However, Amelia did not seem to have any concern. She said in annoyance, "Assistant Scott, please don't look at how glamorous I am on the surface. In fact, I'm just living a normal life."

Ryker said calmly, "President Ramsay, are you worn out because of all the stuff that had happened recently? Why are you so sentimental?"

Amelia said gloomily, "What you didn't know was... I don't know how to play golf at all but Patrick brought me along just to shame me in front of his friends.

I..."

At the end of her words, Amelia choked with sobs!

Ryker was shocked. He wanted to comfort her but he knew that Patrick was a person he could not afford to offend.

Amelia held her forehead in a delicate and weak way. "I am exhausted... You see, as a woman, I have to shoulder a company that is becoming weaker and weaker day by day, on the other hand, I have to accommodate a man who has no intention to take care of me. If it goes on like this, I'm really afraid that I will break down one day..."

When Amelia looked down, a dim light flashed through Ryker's eyes. When he spoke again, his voice sounded different. "Although I'm limited by my ability, I'm your assistant after all. It's my duty to help you. So... if you have any troubles, please just spill them out to me."

Amelia looked up at him emotionally. The emotion in her eyes was so intense that Ryker could not ignore it.

"Assistant Scott, you are so kind!" She raised her hand and took his hand hanging beside her and her tears fell on the back of his hand. "My life is miserable, I have never met a man as gentle and considerate as you in my life... Oh, no, to be exact, you're really a gentleman."

Under the grip of Amelia, Ryker was shocked and said, "President Ramsay! Please... please let go of my hand! It's not good to be seen by others!"

However, Amelia still held his hand tightly and said pitifully, "I just want to get some warmth and comfort from you. I don't have any extra intentions. Please don't take it to your heart."

"But you're obviously trying to make me misunderstand!" Ryker thought.
