Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 716

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Uncle Tucker..."

The anxiety that had risen to Huxton's throat quietly fell back down to its original place after hearing Amelia's answer.

No wonder the man's voice sounded so familiar. It was Amelia's helper at Apex Construction Corporation, Jonathan Tucker!

If that was the case, then Jonathan must be the owner of the car which Sir asked him to look into!

Although he had never personally met Jonathan, Huxton could tell from listening through the bug that Jonathan was loyal to his superiors and expectant towards his younger masters.

Very well then, he could report back to sir!

After understanding the situation, Huxton picked up his phone and dialed Patrick's number.

"Hello! Say! Did you find him?"

Huxton stayed silent.

Huxton swore this was the first time sir had answered his phone at such a rapid speed!

From the opposite side of the phone, Patrick's concerned voice boomed again, "Speak!"

Huxton snapped back to his senses and replied hastily, "Sir, madam should be with the vice president of her company now. His name is Jonathan Tucker, and madam is absolutely safe with him. Sir, you can rest assured!"

Patrick fell quiet for a moment before asking sullenly, "Do you know where they're heading to?"

Huxton hesitated for a while and said, "Madam seemed to be thinking about visiting Jonathan at his house, but Jonathan said..."

Before he could finish, Huxton was interrupted by the sound of glass shattering from Patrick's side jumbled with a shriek from a woman that yelled, "Patrick, is your hand okay?"

"Did something happen to sir?" thought Huxton in panic.

Huxton then nervously called out to him, "Sir! What happened?"

Following that was a flurry of noise, then there was the sound of Patrick's hurried footsteps...

Not knowing how much time had passed, but the commotion from the other side died down again, leaving only Patrick's heavy panting audible.

Huxton guessed that Sir must have found his surrounding too noisy, so he found a quieter place to talk to him on the phone.

This was indeed what had happened.

"Did you say that Amelia is now on the way to Jonathan's house?"

Patrick's voice was as cold and sharp as an icicle, hurling each word towards Huxton like daggers.

Huxton licked his parched lips, "Yes, but..."

Patrick cut him off in a fit of anger, "Give me the address!"

Huxton was stunned for a moment before he soon realized the severity of the situation. "Sir, please listen to me. Jonathan's wife and children are in that house, and madam and Jonathan's relationship is purely professional!"

None of Huxton's words made it into Patrick's ears. "A professional relationship that involves going to each other houses? Huxton, do I look stupid to you?"

Huxton explained, "From madam's tone of voice, I guess she must be tired. And that may be why she thought of going to Jonathan's house to rest in the spur of the moment."

Patrick groaned in aggression, "Amelia is my wife. If she wants to rest, I'll bring her home to rest! Her only home is at Land of Fragrance and nowhere else!"

Huxton had no choice but to add, "Sir, I only know madam wants to go to Jonathan's house, but I don't know his specific address. So it's no use for you to

get so anxious and impatient."

Patrick spat ferociously, "Then find out for me!"

Huxton offered his best course of plan and suggested, "Sir, the quickest to find out where she is, is to call her yourself and ask her. What do you say?"

Patrick retorted, his tone cold, "Do you think she'll tell me the truth?"
