Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 718

"You first, madam." Huxton turned his body sideways, allowing Amelia to go ahead.

After a pause, before the Tucker family could come to react, he swiped his hand and slammed the door with a bang!

Amelia's brows knitted together at this and said, "Do you know how rude you were being?"

The Huxton she remembered always kept a low profile and hated theatrics!

Huxton threw a glance at her. "Madam, you should think about what to do to save yourself more than what to do with others now, don't you think?"

Amelia pointed at herself in confusion. "Me? To save myself?"

Huxton's expression turned grim. "Yes. Sir is in a rampage right now."

Amelia snorted and said, "What right does he have to be angry now? Does he even deserve to be mad?"

Huxton then explained slowly, "Madam, sir is downstairs. You can talk to him face to face later as it does absolutely nothing to get angry at me."

At this, Amelia asked in incredulous disbelief.

"What... What did you say? Patrick is downstairs where?"

Huxton stretched out a finger and pointed towards a car. "Here."

Amelia was dumbfounded.

In the Lamborghini.

There sat two people in the spacious car cabin.

A man, and a woman.

Outside the car stood Huxton in front of a tree not too far away, silently awaiting the next instructions from Patrick.

His cold eyes fell on Amelia's face, but her expression was a display of indifference.

Finally, he could not resist and asked, "If I remember correctly, it's office hours right now, isn't it?"

Amelia answered coolly, "Yes, it is. Why?"

"How dare you ask me why!" Patrick raised the volume of his voice and whipped his head sideway to face Amelia's insistent side profile. "Since it's office hours, why aren't you at the company? What are you doing running around out here?"

"I'm here for business," Amelia responded frankly.

Patrick gritted his teeth. "And it's your business to visit your vice president's family? If I hadn't come to pick you up personally, you wouldn't have wanted to go back, would you?"

Amelia smiled, then spat out each word, "And. So. What?"

Patrick was so enraged that he pounced on her and pressed her upper body on the back seat. He seethed through his teeth, "Say it again!"

To which Amelia only replied with a poker face, "I said I do like to stay here at Uncle Tucker's. If you hadn't asked Huxton to find me, I would be more than happy to have a meal with the Tucker family and chat with them over dinner, only then would I think about when I should return to Land of Fragrance."

Patrick asked insidiously, "Did you forget that Land of Fragrance is your home?"

At this, Amelia's eyes turned bleak so quickly that it was frightening. "No, I didn't. The person who forgot is you!"

Patrick scowled. "What do you mean?"

Amelia stared right into his eyes and enunciated each word clearly, "How long do you want to hide from me about you and Sissi?"
