Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 979

When Amelia's trachoma was triggered, it would be accompanied by an obvious symptom which was itchiness.

This kind of itch was not like the itch on one's skin, but instead, it felt more like an itching in one's heart. No matter how much one rubbed it, it was useless.

Patrick stared at Amelia rubbing her eyes consistently and he came to the conclusion that Amelia wanted to use this method to try to get away from him.

He subsequently used his hand to grab her small fingers and stared at her teary eyes which had become slightly red and reminded, "Do you still remember what your decision was?"

When Patrick asked this question, it was comparable to asking a student what their dream was.

Amelia, who had just finished rubbing her eyes, felt that they started to itch again. She was eager to dismiss Patrick and refuted, "I know, I know. I said that I'd sleep with you. Let go of me already!" "Correct!" Patrick let go of her with satisfaction.

However, Amelia began to rub her eyes again.

Upon seeing this, Patrick could not help but asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine. You can go about your own business. Don't worry about me," Amelia assured him as she resumed her rubbing.

Instinctively, Patrick thought that the fact that she rubbed her eyes was because she felt sleepy. With a bridal carry, he transported her to his personal lounge in an instant.

Amelia did not bother rejecting his advances. When finally Patrick placed her on the bed, she finally could not endure it anymore and asked, "Patrick, do you have any eye drops?"

As she spoke, Amelia took a chance to shoot a glance at him.

It was also this time that Patrick realized that her eyes were bloodshot. His expression suddenly changed.

"Wait a minute, stop rubbing them." Patrick came back to his senses and reached out to constrain Amelia's restless hand while asking, "Do you have eye complications?"

Disheartened, Amelia explained, "I was diagnosed with mild trachoma from a physical examination in my school when I was young, but it has never been so itchy as it is now. I think the wind was too strong and I was blown at for too long... Well, I think that's enough information for you. Do you have eye drops, Patrick?"

Though Patrick had been working for a long time and he indeed had some eye drops located on his desk, this did not mean that it could be used to cure Amelia's trachoma.

He decided without hesitation, "Let's go, I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup!"

"Huh? Is it that serious?"

"If you don't believe me, take a look at yourself in front of the mirror."

"Okay!" Amelia slipped out of bed to have a look at herself.

However, Patrick did not lie to her this time. Her eyes were so bloodshot that it was comparable to a rabbit's eye.

In the next second, through the mirror, Amelia saw Patrick standing behind her. When she saw that his eyes were also as red as hers, she could not help but burst out into laughter.

"This situation is so serious, why you still laughing?"

Patrick had been paying attention to her every move. He was puzzled when he saw how her smile lit up her face through the mirror.

"Because there is joy in hardship." While Amelia turned back, she looked into Patrick's eyes and

asked, "Do you think we're on the same boat?"

Patrick snorted. "Don't get me wrong. I don't have trachoma. What's more, this is not how you use proverb 'on the same boat'. I would say that this is part of the hardships we face as husband and wife."

Amelia was not interested in flirting with him, so she covered her eyes once again and cried out, "Oh no! They seem to itch again!"

Patrick was immediately concerned for her.

After thinking for a while, he went to the wardrobe, opened it, and fished out a pair of sunglasses from the inside. He turned to Amelia and instructed, "Put them on first so that you won't think of scratching them on the way."

Amelia's thought that Patrick made sense, so she put on the sunglasses immediately.

Since Amelia's face was small, and the sunglasses were tailored for men, as soon as she put them on, they immediately slipped down and her rabbit-red eyes were exposed in an instant.

Seeing this, Patrick quickly reached out to help her adjust them back into position.
