Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1335

"Ms. Amelia Ramsay, I'm afraid that you have to bear with it for a while more. To be honest, your dress is not fit for walking. I'm sure that Captain won't be pleased to know that others have been staring at you."

Despite his good intention, Carl had to admit that selfishly he wanted to carry such a beautiful woman a while longer.

Amelia did notice that this place was flooded with a bunch of men. Having in mind that she was wearing a thin sheer of garment that hardly covered her body, she had no other choice but to agree to Carl gloomily.

Carl sent Amelia into a guest room which was backed up with the most number of police force at the entrance.

"Have a good rest, Ms. Amelia Ramsay." With that said, Carl put her down at the edge of the bed carefully as if she was a porcelain doll that he was handling with due care.

Amelia stuck out her head from the blanket before she requested politely, "Carl, is that possible for you to get me something more appropriate to wear? I'll be very grateful for that."

"There's no problem! I'll go and get it right away!" Carl was more than willing to offer his help for Amelia. In the next second, he vanished at the door dutifully.

As soon as Carl left, Amelia heaved a sigh of relief and began uncovering the blanket on her.

It did not take Carl long to get what Amelia needed. Upon his return, all he could see was Amelia sitting at the edge of the bed. While her legs were covered under the blanket still, she was no longer covering the upper part of her body. In other words, he could see her bare arms as well as the cleavage across her chest. As soon as she saw him coming back, she immediately greeted him with a bright smile.

It was the smile that dazzled Carl. Even with her slender legs hidden under the blanket, her beauty and temperament were more than enough to make her alluringly captivating.

As a well-trained policeman, Carl managed to calm himself down before her outstanding beauty. He handed over the clothes and a glass of milk to Amelia before he said, "Ms. Amelia, the Captain has ordered me to get you these."

Her smile widened at those words. She could not help saying, "Owen has been such a thoughtful one. Please let him know that I'm very thankful for all these."

Carl was still staring at her absent-mindedly despite the fact that he had passed those items to Amelia. At the sight of this, Amelia could not help but remind him, Carl, I would like to change and have some rest."

"Huh?" It took Carl a while before he came back to his senses. He hurriedly said, "Then I shall leave first, Ms. Amelia. If you need anything, just let our men know. They are just outside of your room."

With that said, he left her room light-headedly.

Amelia shook her head in puzzlement. However, his strange behavior did not bother her much either. As soon as he left, she began changing under the blanket.

When Carl fled out from the room, those policemen who were outside guarding Amelia's room happened to notice the blush on his cheeks.

In fact, those policemen on duty were the few numbers whom Owen confided in the most. Hence, they more or less knew Amelia and her characters. At the sight of Carl's horny expression, they were pretty certain that Amelia would never seduce him or give him false lead. It was therefore an onesided attraction by Carl towards Amelia. At the thought of this, the troop of men could not help but glance at him teasingly.

"Carl, you're interested in Ms. Amelia, aren't you?"

Carl stumbled over the unexpected question that was directed at him, "I..."

"If that's the case, then I can tell you that you're in trouble. Don't you know that our Captain cares about her a lot? Despite the fact that she had been divorcing his younger brother, our Captain has always taken her as his sister-in-law. You're probably digging your own grave if you were to set your eyes on her."

He realized that his colleagues had been misunderstanding him, Carl hurriedly shook his head. He waved his hand in the air in gesture to deny their assumption, "No, I..."

"Fine, you don't have to explain. Your explanation sounds more like a cover-up to me. It's undeniable that Ms. Amelia Ramsay is outstandingly beautiful. But at the end of the days, she deserves someone like Captain's brother and definitely not any of us. It'd be better for you to give up your thoughts now. Who knows if she is going to get back to her ex-husband sooner or later?"

Carl could no longer remain in silence at those baseless accusation against him. He shouted out in frustration, "I told you that I'm not!"

Owen squinted his eyes threateningly. He knew very well that no man would be able to shift his eyes from her, especially with that particular dress she was wearing. However, he selfishly thought that only his younger brother was entitled to have all her charms and beauty!

Carl hurriedly explained, "No! Sir, I swear that I did not intentionally peek at her body! It was just that her dress was..."

"What's wrong with her dress?" Owen's voice at this moment was enough to send a chill running down his spine. The truth was he was stressed out as he shouldered enormous responsibility and expectation from The Hopper Family. Had Amelia been taken advantage of irrespective of what form, he would never entitle to Gramps's forgiveness!

Carl took a deep breath before he uttered the truth, "It's eye-catching."

Owen was outrageous at his reply that he roared, "It's your fault that you have such a poor selfdiscipline. How on earth can you blame her for the dress that she was wearing? Do you want me to dig out your eyeballs now?"

Carl cried out gloomily, "No no no, it's all my fault, Sir! I should have blindfolded myself before participating in the rescue action..."

Owen rolled his eyes in annoyance before he further pressed on the question, "Don't think you're smart to play with words! Tell me honestly! Which part of her body did you see?"

Carl scratched his head as he answered sheepishly, "Um... Nothing much that I saw honestly. But, I did catch a glimpse of her arms and hands. By the way, I discovered something too! Sir, would you like to hear about it?"

Owen said solemnly, "Report it to me." Carl elaborated, "I realize that there were countless bruises and scratch mark on both of her arms.

Besides, there was severe bite mark on the back of her left hand too! I came to suspect that it was the man in the same room with her that had caused all these injuries. However, she denied when I asked her. She even told me that it was the man who saved her. I can tell that she was hoping that we will show some mercy to that man..."

Owen paid no attention to the second half of his words. He instructed right away, "How could you not report her injuries to me at first instance? Hurry up and get a doctor here! I need him to be here as soon as possible!"
