Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 825

"He's my husband and I'm not worried about him at all. What's there for you to worry about?" Amelia then got up and sat Paisley down on the sofa, demanding her to take a rest.

Subsequently, Amelia handed her the remote control and said, "Let's watch some TV and release the stress."

Paisley glanced at the remote control, then turned to look at Amelia in disbelief. She said, "This is strange. Why are you not worried at all? He is having high fever and wandered out alone. Aren't you afraid that something might happen to him?"

Amelia patted Paisley on the shoulder and said vaguely, "He is the one inviting trouble when he decided to go out alone. But don't you worry, perhaps he is having fun outside."

On the contrary, Paisley's mood was the total opposite of Amelia's. She had let Patrick left the house under her nose. If he really got into trouble or anything, Eve would definitely throw a fit at her, just like how she would at the men in black outside.

Amelia tried to calm her by coming up with an idea. "If you're really worried, why don't you give Patrick a call?" Paisley was extremely horrified. "Oh my goodness! He's your husband, why should I call him when you don't plan to do that?"

"But he is also your patient, so you should be responsible for his wellbeing, right?" Amelia supported her face with one hand and replied with a faint smile.

Paisley was so pissed that she literally coughed up blood, but she had to admit that Amelia's threat had worked on her. She then took out her phone from pocket and scrolled to Patrick's number while trembling with fury. Under Amelia's subtle peek, she dialed the number.

Beep... Beep... Beep...

Amelia was sitting close to Paisley, so close that she could hear the dial tone. Every time the 'beep' sounded from Paisley's phone, Amelia's heart would sink a little.

The longer the time it took for Patrick to pick up the phone, the higher the probability of something was happening between him and Sissi.

Was he that busy until he did not have time to answer the phone? Amelia raised her eyebrows coldly.

In fact, Patrick had indeed chose to ignore Paisley's phone call because he had not wanted her to bug him about taking his medicine.

Because of this incident, it had by accident, further worsened Amelia's misunderstanding towards him.

"He's not answering my calls..." After numerous calls, Paisley finally came up with a depressing conclusion.

She took a peek at Amelia on the other end of the sofa out of the corner of her eye. Suddenly, she motioned for her to take the phone and said, "Patrick must be avoiding me because he got annoyed by me. Maybe you should give him a call instead."

Amelia straightened up and dodged Paisley. "I don't think so. Anyway I should go back now."

Paisley would not let Amelia escape. "It's now one o'clock in the morning, where are you supposed to go? By all means you can stay here tonight."

"Amelia, I hope you'll take my advice. The Land of Fragrance is your only home."

At that moment, Owen's advise rang in her ears, and Amelia struggled inwardly. "Paisley..." She said.

Sensing that Amelia had wanted to refuse her again, Paisley pursed her lips and begged, "Please stay, Amelia. I've already lost a feverish Patrick under my care, I don't want to lose you as well, or else I won't be able to walk out from here alive."

Meanwhile at the Escalt Hotel.

Knowing that Patrick was sitting on the bed, Sissi deliberately left the bathroom door open with a tiny gap while she bathed.

If Patrick was attentive enough, he would have noticed the gap left open by her.
