Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 734

"Yea." Sissi tucked her hair behind her ear and said uneasily, "We're heading to the grilled fish restaurant across the street. We're going there right now!"

Hearing Sissi, Lindsay said, "Handsome, don't listen to Sissi's nonsense. We were supposed to have a meal at the restaurant behind you! She only said that because she saw that woman beside you, so..."

"Lindsay!" roared Sissi, who was so angered she let out her fury with her.

Seeing Sissi's hot temper, Pauline instantly dragged the shocked Lindsay behind her and warned, "Stop talking! Just listen to Sissi!"

Amelia took in the commotion as it unfolded before her leisurely, and thought, "So this is how it is..."

The reason why these two women jeered at her behind her back and even plotted against her was to get back at her for Sissi's sake.

Amelia then turned her attention to Patrick, waiting for his decision.

As Patrick gazed at Sissi's embarrassed expression, his heart softened and said, "Since we chose the same restaurant, then let's eat together."

Amelia's heart skipped a beat. She gaped at

Patrick's side profile in disbelief. What would become of her position when Patrick invited Sissi to lunch?!

No matter how wild the flames were blazing in Amelia's eyes, she could not change the invitation that Patrick had just offered.

Sissi hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she could not resist the temptation to be with Patrick. She nodded and said, "Then I'm sorry for bothering you two."

Even at this point, Sissi was still clueless that Amelia had already known Patrick's past with her. Sissi thought she could get over this by playing dumb, but she was awfully wrong.

The moment they heard Patrick's invitation for Sissi to a meal, Lindsay and Pauline's faces both lit up at once.

After all, Patrick looked like a great man in all aspects. If they could curry favours with him in Sissi's name, their future would look bright and boundless!

"Sissi, don't keep him waiting. Let's go in!" The two of them were getting eager and urged Sissi.

Sissi then shook her head in furtive. She did not know if this was a blessing in disguise, for if Linday had kept her mouth sealed, she definitely would not be able to stay.

"Well, let's just wait and see," thought Sissi. She was looking for an opportunity to test Amelia's capability after all!

Once the five people took their seats, Amelia was in no hurry to take over the menu handed over by the waiter. Instead, she put one hand on her cheek and looked at Sissi with interest, "I forgot to ask. You are...?"

Patrick's brows furrowed.

"I'm Sissi Roberts. You can just call me Sissi," she replied.

In total awareness of the look Patrick was giving her, Amelia continued pretending to be confused. She blinked her eyes and fired questions at Sissi with a kind tone. "Sissi, since you look so cultured and well-educated, are you perhaps a teacher?"

Patrick let out a heavy cough.

But Amelia ignored him and continued to smile at Sissi, making Sissi a little flustered.

Right away, Lindsay responded in her stead, "Yes, we are all lecturers for a university. You have sharpeyes!"

A sense of powerlessness rose in Sissi's chest. She had kept reminding Lindsay to stop talking, but why did she still have so much to say?

After adjusting her mood, Sissi continued gracefully, "Yes, I teach literature at a university. Nice to meet you, Ms. Ramsay."

This self-introduction was done superbly.

After Amelia returned her words of greetings, she acted surprised and asked, "Wait, how do you know my family name? If I remember correctly, it's the first time we've seen each other, right, Ms. Roberts?"

The smile on Sissi's face became wooden at once. Just as she was thinking about how to answer her, Patrick spoke for her, "I've introduced you to Ms. Sissi in private before, so of course she knows who you are."

This time, it was Amelia's smile that froze.

Patrick was giving Sissi a way out from this embarrassment!
