Chapter 586

Only then did Amelia's depressed mood improve a little. She said, "Let's make it clear. At most, I can accept that you had secretly put a listening bug on me. As for the other types of bugs, you're not allowed to

install them on me. Understand?"

Huxton gave her an odd look as if he had not expected her to compromise with what he had done.

Amelia rolled her eyes and explained, "Even if I don't let you put this type of devices on me, you won't listen to me anyway, right?"

"That's right." Huxton nodded without any hint of shame. Hethen reminded Amelia, "Madam, didn't you say you're going to call sir tonight?" Amelia seemed hesitant. "Do you think I should contact him?"

Huxton answered without thinking, "You should. Sir is the only one who can help with the three billion debt for you."

Amelia felt drained at the thought of that. She did not want to borrow money from Patrick!

Huxton added, "You're sir's wife. It's not embarrassing for you to ask him for help when in

difficulty."

In the secondary bedroom.

Recalling what Huxton had said, Amelia's hands started to tremble.

She plucked up her courage, grabbed the phone on the bedside table, and dialled Patrick's phone number while holding her breath.

But his phone was turned off!

As if she had been thrown a wet blanket on her head, Amelia put down the phone stiffly.

Amelia looked up at the clock. It was not even eight o'clock yet. Even if Patrick was tired and had fallen asleep, he did not have the habit of shutting off his phone before going to bed. Just in case, Amelia decided and contacted Patrick's secretary.

An elegant melody sounded from the other end of the phone, but it did not do anything to relieve her anxiety.
