Chapter 1003

Patrick had more to say, but then Cordy deliberately provoked him, "So, you want John to have me instead? Is that it?"

Patrick promptly snapped in agitation. "No! Of course not!"

Cordy smiled—she certainly understood that.

However, Patrick was just too good to her. He was always putting her first before all else, and was especially worried that she would be hurt.

"I want to be with you forever," Patrick said as he reached out, clearly unable to resist taking her hand.

However, perhaps embarrassed for some reason or another, he couldn’t actually touch her. Cordy actually found that she couldn’t stand it.

Was he embarrassed?

Come to think of it, it was understandable since this was the first time he was dating a woman.

As such, Cordy reached out to take his hand instead.

Patrick looked at her in surprise; the next instant, he took her dainty hand firmly in his and didn’t let go, as if afraid someone would take her away.

At that, Sean left quietly—he was a third wheel, anyway.
