Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 722

Scarlett merely responded with a tacit smile.

It was only at this moment that it dawned on Amelia about what was actually happening.

Scarlett and Huxton had linked to set her up!

Scarlett was deliberately poking at Amelia's pitiful self-esteem and asked all kinds of questions to the point where Amelia had to pretend all was well with Patrick to drive Scarlett away.

And as a result of that...

Huxton had recorded her lie on tape. What were the two of them going to do to her next?

Forcing a smile onto her face, Amelia then spread out her palm and placed it in front of Huxton. She tried to persuade him, "Huxton, since I've always treated you as my friend, can you give it to me for the sake of our friendship?"

But Huxton only tightened his grip around the recording pen in his hand and replied, "Madam, you can't take back what you said. And you said it yourself that you want to sleep with sir. You can't go back on your words."

Amelia then responded in a weak tone, "Stop messing around. I've said so many things throughout my entire life. How can you guarantee that every word that comes out of my mouth is true?"

Suspicion ladened Huxton's face at once. "I've always thought that madam was serious about sir. But from the way madam is speaking, I don't think it's that serious anymore."

To which Amelia refuted right away, "Nonsense! My feelings for Patrick are true! I'm serious about it!"

Another beep sounded.

Amelia was taken aback.

"Nonsense! My feelings for Patrick are true! I'm serious about it!"

Her statement was put on loop again.

Amelia held back the urge to burst into rage, stomped her feet and questioned Huxton, "What exactly do you want from me?"

"Madam, do want me to replay the first statement you said?" asked Huxton.

"No!" interrupted Amelia interrupted in fury, her beautiful eyes fuming with anger. "Don't think you can threaten me just because you've recorded what I said. I will never share the same bed as him!"

"Madam, Since you are so high-spirited about this, then it shouldn't be a problem if I pass this recording to sir now, right?" With that said, Huxton cast a

glance towards Scarlett.

Scarlett then nodded in agreement and said, "Yep, yep! No problem at all!"

"You! Both of you!" Amelia's blood was boiling.

Then, Huxton took one step forward.

"Wait a minute!" Amelia broke down her facade in a second.

"Madam, have you changed your mind?" asked Huxton.

Taking in a deep breath, Amelia then uttered with difficulty, "You can't give him the recording pen. If you do, the divorce will seem like a joke to him!"

"Oh my goodness! Divorce?" Scarlett gasped at the sound of that.

When Huxton called her on the phone, he thought Amelia and Patrick were only having their trivial, usual quarrels. Who would have thought that...

With the recording in his possession, Huxton then continued fearlessly, "Madam, please forgive me for not being able to accept your request immediately. Unless you rest with sir tonight, I'll hand this pen to him at this instant. On the contrary, if madam cooperates, I'll agree to delete this recording."

Amelia gritted her teeth and glared at him. "So even you're pushing me to the wall now?"

All Huxton could do was lowering his head in silence.

"Come to think of it, you've been Patrick's man through and through right from the start. My feelings don't matter to you in the slightest."

After a momentary pause, Amelia then added indignantly, "I'll do as you wish! I hope you can keep your word!"
