Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 969

Patrick Hopper asked shamelessly, "And why is that so?"

Without thinking twice, Amelia blurted, "It's just that I think you're dirty. What's there more to say?"

Patrick's expression changed subtly and she noticed.

"I'm dirty?" Patrick grabbed her shoulders and pressed her against the wall even before she had time to react. With a low growl, he continued, "Ever since I proposed to you, I have never had physical intimacy with any other women. I've never greeted them with a kiss on the cheek. Not to mention get into a relationship with any of them! Don't misunderstand the fact that I protected Sissi and her child as their 'father' meant that I court every woman that I meet. I am never that desperate!"

Amelia was startled by his unexpectedly fierce response. Just as she was ready to respond, once again, she was left speechless from what he said.

Sheepishly Amelia stared at him as if she momentarily forgot how to reply.

"Listen carefully to what I'm about to say. Your body was indeed yours before we got married!" Patrick pressed his forehead against hers as harsh words continued to flow from between his cold lips. "Now, a man named Patrick owns you, and I'm the Patrick!"

His words sounded like a curse proclaimed upon her, haunting over her like a shadow. Flustered, Amelia struggled to escape from Patrick's grasp. "No..."

"I promised to sign an agreement with you because I didn't want to force you into a situation you can't get out from. Remember, although your body is yours in this short period of time, I can still claim back what is mine whenever I want to!" Although Patrick sounded gentler, he ultimately still had the final say. Amelia had no part to play in this matter.

He let go of her and loosened his grip right after he uttered those words, letting Amelia slide to the ground in despair.

Before Patrick walked away, he glanced at her one last time while trying his best to ignore the expression of anguish and struggle clearly displayed on her face.

Indeed, he had revealed too much of his true feelings to her. If she was not a fool, she would understand the intention behind his words.

At this moment, Amelia's thoughts and feelings were tangled in a knot as she squatted immovable on the floor.

This was her first time hearing from Patrick that he wanted to lead a clean and honest life ever since they got married!

He never bothered to explain these things in detail before. At most, he would deliberately tell her a brief statement and conveyed what he meant through his actions. This time, his sudden explanation was most likely to betrue!

Not only that, he also mentioned that he was not someone who would just accept any woman that came to him!

Did he mean that he would never reconcile with Sissi again?

Amelia cuddled her head with her hands. What a mess she was in...

Patrick strode out from his bathroom clad in a pristine white bathrobe, all the while maintaining his calm and collected demeanor unlike before. He was taken aback from the sight in front of him.

Amelia was in his room at this very moment.

He saw her standing at the edge of the window as she attempted to push open both windows in front of her. Patrick was not sure if it was because she was too weak, but for some reason Amelia just could not seem to open them up.

Observing this, Patrick's child-like impatience was aroused. He took a few steps towards Amelia and leaned against her back.

A pair of long arms stretched out from Amelia's shoulders and with a forceful push, the windows were finally opened.

The cool night breeze quickly rushed in all of a sudden, caressing Amelia's face. However, she was unable to enjoy its coolness because she was too aware of the warm body pressed against her back.

Just as she was about to turn around, Patrick's husky voice sounded in her ears. "Don't move. I've just showered and I'm still very much naked. If you cause trouble for me, then agreement will only be written tomorrow."

After understanding the meaning behind his words, Amelia immediately stopped moving.

The corners of Patrick's lips lifted, he was secretly amused at how gullible she was.

Amelia kept her back towards him and asked stiffly, "Can you please put on your clothes first?"

Motionlessly, Patrick leaned in closer and retorted, "Firstly, why don't you tell me the reason why you're here in my room?"

Amelia tried to swallow back the pressure of not being able to see him, yet being able to feel the pressure of his invasive nature. Instinctively, she replied, "I'm here to..."
