Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1749

"Maryanne!" For a moment, Milton ignored the fact that his collar was still in Hobart's grasp. He jerked his body to the side, and his collar slipped out from between Hobart's fingers.

After that, he quickly passed by Hobart and strode toward Maryanne.

Maryanne subconsciously took a step back when he came over.

When Milton saw this, he was both surprised and sad. "Maryanne, don't you want to see me?"

It was clear that under his efforts during this period of time, Maryanne has softened attitude her towards him. Why was she looked so cold and rejecting today?

Maryanne replied coldly, "Yes, I don't want to see you. Can you leave now?"

Milton was confused and asked sadly, "Why?" Maryanne turned her face away slightly and said in annoyance, "No reason."

How could Milton accept such a perfunctory answer? Almost as soon as Maryanne turned her face away, he immediately changed his position to meet her. "Maryanne, what did I do wrong? You were not like this on the phone yesterday."

Hobart was enraged to hear Milton's words. "This fella is actually making phone calls to harass Maryanne secretly. Shame on him!"

After going back later, he would give Maryanne a new phone number!

In the meantime, Maryanne said, "You didn't do anything wrong. I was wrong. Is that okay?"

Milton heard the deep sarcasm in her words and became more and more confused. "Maryanne, is there any misunderstanding between us?"

As Milton saw that Maryanne was pursing her lips and not replying, he continued to be good-tempered and said, "Maryanne, I thought that after the previous experience, we would at least learn to be honest with each other." Maryanne bit her lower lip as if she was thinking or hesitating after she heard his words,.

After a long while, she finally faced Milton. Although her attitude was still cold, at least she was willing to communicate, "Tell me, where did you go this morning?"

Milton said without thinking, "I went to the hospital to visit Amelia."

Knowing that "Amy" would make her unhappy, he stopped calling her like this.

His honesty made Maryanne nod her head unconsciously, but then she thought of something and her pretty face became even colder. "You went alone?"

"No." Milton shook his head. "I took my mom with me."

"There's no others?"

"No."

Maryanne thought that he was trying to deceive her for Florence and could not help but say in annoyance, "I have nothing more to say to you. Get lost!"

As she spoke, she turned around to close the door.

Even Hobart's expression changed, let alone Milton. So his sister was trying to shut him out with Milton?

Maryanne sneered, "You know what you're doing!"

Milton smiled bitterly and said, "You misunderstood me. The reason why I hugged her was that she accidentally ran into a man when she rushed out of the elevator. I saw that she was about to fall down, so I helped her."

"But that's not what I saw! I didn't see her bump into a man. I only saw you hugging her, and she looked at you as if you were in love!" Maryanne said, without expression. "If you like her, don't come and mess with me!"

"Maryanne!" Milton's voice strained slightly. "Can you be more reasonable?"

"You said that you didn't see Florence running into a man because of the angle problem. That man is much taller and stronger than Florence. So when Florence bumped into the man, she might be blocked by that man's back, so you can't see it!"

After Milton finished speaking in one breath, he continued, "As for you saying that I hugged her and that she looked at me, I can only say that we don't have any chemistry! From the moment I knew her, we've always been hostile to each other. When I accidentally hugged her today, I felt uncomfortable. She is the same. I can guarantee this with my own life!"

After his explanation, Maryanne's expression relaxed gradually. She started to think about the scenes she had seen at the parking lot. Could she have overlooked or misunderstood something?

At that time, it seemed that there were many people waiting for the elevator, and there seemed to be a tall man standing at the door...

"Maryanne, if you still don't believe me, I can call Florence right now and ask her to tell you everything that happened in the parking lot! Don't worry, I can't collude with her in front of you." Milton went on.

When Maryanne saw that he was serious, she couldn't help but yell, "Wait! Let me ask you, since you didn't get along with her, why did you let her sit in your car?"

Milton explained, "That's because when we met in the hospital, she told me that Amelia had been discharged from the hospital. So we planned to go to the Land of Fragrance to find Amelia. Since it was on the way, I asked her if she wanted together. In fact, I was just being polite at that time, thinking that she was the pearl of The Hopper Family, she should have a driver. I didn't know what happened, but she actually agreed. I couldn't go back on my words, so I could only give her a ride."
