My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy)
Chapter 328 Arresting Philip

Philip slowly fell on the ground, before he could do anything else to Amy. Nobody could see clearly what exactly happened.

After the fall, Lucy came out from behind, clapped her hands and said to the police, "You can take him now."

Philip was lying on the ground, strengthless. He looked at Lucy in a shocking face: was this really his bodyguard? Why would she do that to him at this moment? "Don't look at me. You should be thankful that I didn't take revenge. I'm handing you over to the police and they'll give you what you deserve." Lucy said to Philip. The cops swarmed forward and handcuffed Philip right away. The guests were all in shock and couldn't replace a proper reaction to what was happening.

Philip was taken away by the police. Richard already ran to Amy and was about to carry her in his arms and sent her to the hospital.

"It's OK, nothing serious. I'm not going to the hospital." Amy waved her hands and tucked herself deep in Richard's arms - it was the best place for her now.

"I'm so sorry, kid." Dalton looked at Amy's pale face with worried eyes, then raised his hand to brush her hair.

"Dad, please call Mom, would you? She's really worried about you since you were gone. Maybe you can also tell her about me. I made her worried too." The wound on Amy's neck was indeed not deep. The blood was already dry by then.

"Richard, you owe me a wedding." She raised her head and gently kissed Richard's chin.

"I remember that. We'll have an unforgettable wedding, I promise. I'm so sorry, sweetheart. It's my fault. I didn't protect you well and made you suffer." Regardless of Amy's words, Richard still decided to bring her to the hospital.

On the way there, Amy fell asleep. Finally she could relax a little. As for that Lucy, it was not her interest for now. All she needed at the moment was a good rest.

Amy had no idea how she got to and out of the hospital. All she knew was that she felt really safe and reassured in Richard's embrace, which she had never felt before. She slept so deep that night that even if Richard would leave her alone, she wouldn't wake up. But of course Richard wouldn't do that.

When Amy opened her eyes again, the first person she saw wasn't Richard though. It was Lucy.

"Amy, you're up! That's great. I'll call everybody!" Seeing Amy was awake, Lucy put on a big smile on her face, revealing her white teeth. It was heart-warming smile.

"Wait. How long have I been out?" Amy felt quite refreshed after this long sleep.

"By days it would be two. By hours... it was just over 30 hours." Lucy made a calculation. 'Over 30 hours! I haven't slept that much in the last few months.' Amy thought to herself.

Lucy went out to fetch everyone since Amy didn't ask her further questions.

The people who then walked into the room all came to deliver food. Amy had been out for too long, so everything Richard ordered his people to cook was all so soupy.

"I want to eat meat." Staring at the porridge and soymilk in the bowl, Amy said.

"Tonight. Now you need to eat this. You've been sleeping for a really long time. Richard's worried that your stomach can't deal with too much food right now." Lucy stuck to the rule. Whatever Richard asked her to do, she would make sure to execute it well.

Amy didn't insist. She ate two bowls of porridge and drank some milk, but still felt not full without any meat.

"Alright, Amy. Don't worry. Richard told me to bring you to a nice restaurant tonight. Now you just slowly wake up your stomach. You slept for so long. Everyone was worried. But the doctor said you were just too tired, both physically and mentally. A good rest would make you feel much better." Lucy asked her men to clean up the dishes and brought in Amy's clothes.

Amy realized that she had changed already, wearing a slip dress pyjama.

"Who changed for me?" Amy thought the dress looked a bit familiar.

"Of course me. We bought this together the other day. One for me and one for you. Mine is red, and yours is white. Don't you remember?" Lucy sounded like she and Amy were very close. Amy remembered now. She almost forgot that.

Feeling half full, Amy still felt like eating something. She looked around the room, which seemed a bit foreign to her. She couldn't tell which hotel she was staying in. "Where am I?" Amy asked in curiosity.

"Richard rented this place. He didn't have a place to live in after he came here, so he rented this place. I found this. What do you think?" Lucy seemed quite proud. "Well, quite nice. But Lucy, aren't you Philip's bodyguard? Why do you seem so close to Richard?" Amy felt a little jealous to see the two being in such a good term. "Hahaha! Well, let me tell you. My parents died when I was still a kid. Philip brought me up. He put me in school, let me practice martial arts, and I was his best bodyguard. But my parents were actually killed by him so that he could steal my parents' business. He didn't kill me back then because he wanted to use me. He made me do things for him. He thought nobody knew about the history, but words do travel in this world." There was still a trace of anger in Lucy's voice.

"Philip sent me to a school in France, where Richard and I became classmates. He even taught me Finger Pointing Manipulations. This is what I did to Philip the day before, that's why he suddenly lost all strengths and couldn't fight back anymore." Lucy told Amy briefly how she and Richard got to know each other.

This was what happened! Philip would probably never have thought that he would hurt himself by his own doing.

"Let's take a walk. It's beautiful around this house. Richard and Mr. Newell went testifying already. Today is the day for Philip's trial. They found a lot of evidence, so both of them are not here today. And they asked me to take care of you."

Lucy noticed that Amy was still looking around and knew she was looking for Richard.

"So a few months ago when Richard went to the States, it was because of this?" Amy recalled the day when she went to France looking for Dalton, she saw Richard in the departure hall going to the US.

"Yes. I noticed something back then and told Richard, then he came here. He already sent people looking into this before. The funniest part is that although many were checking on Philip and he was hiding himself from them, he had no idea I was one of those people too." Lucy said with a grudge.[]
