Patrick gestured at himself eager to liven things up. "Come on. Do your worst."

Finding him childish, Richard simply ignored him.

Sean could not stand it right then.

How did Patrick even manage to survive in the political scene? With that personality of his, his rivals would eat him up and spit him out at any moment!

Nonetheless, he suddenly kicked out a wave, splashing it at Patrick and hitting him in the face.

"Hey! Are you a kid? I wasn't playing with you!" Patrick snapped grumpily.

"Look who's talking, thirty-year-old who acts like a ten-year-old."

"Are you mocking me?"

"What do you think?"

"Fuck!" Patrick shrieked even as he kept splashing Sean repeatedly. "I've had it with you! You stood in my way for love, and you're now interfering with me bonding with my future son?! You really have a lot of free time, don't you?!"

Sean was naturally not to be trifled with, and he promptly retaliated with even more splashes at Patrick.

All at once, the modest-sized pool was filled

    Being caught off guard, Sean choked on several mouthfuls of water vigorously. He got up angrily and looked at Patrick, who had gotten away with his scheme. "All's fair in fights." Patrick failed in the water fight he had with Sean just now to the point he could not even open his eyes. Of course, he had to take revenge. "Ah!" Patrick was only smug for less than two seconds, for Sean abruptly pressed Patrick's body into the water. It was beyond Patrick's imagination that Sean was so cunning, so he choked on several mouthfuls of water until his face was flushed. "Pfft!" Sean laughed coldly. He looked down at Patrick. Of course, Patrick could not stand being provoked by Sean. He stepped forward and was about to fight against Sean. Richard was near them at first, but now he hurriedly took a few steps back for fear that he would be harmed when they got into a fight later. He could not figure out why they were so childish to that extent given that they were grown-ups.

    Sean opened his eyes in a daze. He looked at Richard, who was sleeping beside him. "Let me carry him home. Don't wake him up. Help me wake Patrick up." "Okay." Cordy tried to wake Patrick up. Patrick moved slightly, but he did not want to wake up. "Go back to your room and sleep," Cordy reminded him. "We've arrived at Cranston Hall."Patrick struggled slightly before he woke up. When he glanced at the time, he found that it was now past midnight. It was no wonder he was so sleepy. He yawned and got out of the car with Cordy. "Where's Sean?" Patrick was confused. "He carried Richard back to the room." "Damn! I missed another chance to perform well." Patrick became displeased. Consequently, Cordy was rendered speechless. She wondered if Patrick became dumb after falling in love. They walked into Cranston Hall, where Patrick insisted on seeing Cordy off to her room. Cordy did not want to waste time in the middle of the night, so she acquiesced. "Cordy." Patric

    Patrick brushed past Sean. "Hey." Sean stopped him. Patrick ignored Sean, feeling that he did not have to seek humiliation. When he was leaving, a person grabbed his body fiercely with one hand. Patrick furrowed his brows, and before he could resist, Sean pulled him away. "Hey! Are you out of your mind?" Patrick roared at Sean. While he was cursing, Patrick dragged him away. Cordy watched their backs. Sean would not grab the chance and beat up Patrick just because Patrick confessed his love for Cordy. Besides, she did not accept him. Of course, Cordy did not meddle in that either. Sean always had a sense of propriety. If Sean hit Patrick, then Patrick must have done something to deserve that. She returned to her room. Sitting on the sofa, she suddenly did not feel like moving. She was exhausted after such a long day, but she was still not sleepy. She recalled Patrick's confession just now. She would have had feelings regardless of the kind of attitude sh

    However, Patrick could not stop drinking after he had started. Even though he was stubborn, he had to admit that he was slightly sad. After so many years, Cordy did not waver at all.John had turned into ashes. What was she still holding onto? Was she so cruel?Patrick became sadder as he dwelled on it, so he drank more. "Hey, drink less." Sean tried to stop Patrick from drinking so recklessly. "You're so odd. You asked me to drink just now, but now you stopped me from drinking. Sean, am I so detestable? Do you want to stand against me no matter what?" Patrick's eyes became slightly blurry, and he almost could not see the person before him. "I asked you to drink to ease your mood, but I didn’t ask you to drink so recklessly." Sean sounded aloof. "Stop drinking. It's almost time. Just go to bed." "Sean, I… Ah!" Patrick suddenly screamed as he felt his body being lifted all of a sudden. Sean had carried Patrick on his shoulders. This son of a bitch… Patrick was abou

    The next day, Zoe quickly jumped out of bed when her alarm clock rang. She then turned it off for fear that she might wake Yelena up. She stretched her body before she got out of bed, and she did not dare to sleep a little longer for fear that she would doze off. After she woke up, she would habitually sit on the toilet bowl for a while with her phone to scroll through the latest news. When she clicked on her phone, she found an unread WhatsApp message. She often put the general group chats on silent mode. So, the messages that popped up were either people looking for her or it was a very important group message. She quickly clicked on it. When she opened it, she was stunned. Jay had sent her a voice message in the middle of the night. Was he out of his mind?When she looked at it carefully, she found something amiss. It was because she was the one who sent him a message, so he replied with a voice message. However, she remembered that she did not send him a voice me

    Zoe was shocked. She wondered if he had eyes on his back. Why did he notice that she was stealing glances at him?"Come here. Let me tell you something about your script," Jay said. "Okay." Zoe hurriedly walked over. While watching the video replay of their rehearsal today, Jay was comparing their lines. He circled something on the script and paused at the place of her part before he said, "Your emotion here isn't enough, and your line wavers. You should study it well and be careful when you go onstage tomorrow." "Okay." Zoe nodded. Jay was a very attentive director. He could very accurately find the smallest flaw in acting. "Is there anything else?" Zoe asked. "No. Help me get Candice over," Jay uttered. "Hmm," Zoe answered, but she did not leave. "Is there anything else?" Jay fixed his gaze on the screen without looking at Zoe. "I didn't send the voice message last night," Zoe explained. After that, she panicked even more. If she claimed that she was not

    Zoe did not know how Quinn had found her house.She never told Quinn about her home address after such a long time because she did not want them to find out about Yelena. However, she did not intentionally hide it from them.She just knew very well that they would ask about who Yelena's father was when they learned about Yelena's existence. Even if she did not tell them who Yelena's father was, they would guess the truth. After that, it would become very troublesome. She just wanted to raise Yelena alone. Yet, she still opened the door. She was afraid that Quinn would consciously go against the law even though Quinn was the lawyer and would break open her door if she refused to open the door. "Zoe, why are you avoiding me?" Quinn's face was flushed because of anger."No, I'm not." Zoe averted Quinn's gaze. Zoe was not very good at lying, especially to the important people around her. She could not make up white lies. "Why didn't you pick up my calls or read my WhatsApp m

    The two of them walked into Zoe's bedroom. "Just ask me whatever you want to ask." Zoe did not want to keep it a secret any longer. She found it quite exhaustive to hide it from others. Coincidentally, the mass media exposed it, so she might as well let it all go to hell. "It's Jay's, right?" Quinn went straight to the point. Zoe was still slightly surprised. Although she knew that both Quinn and Cordy would be able to guess it, they did not seem to doubt that Yelena was Bob's child. "Did you hide because you gave birth to his child?" Quinn narrowed her eyes slightly. "No." Zoe immediately denied that. "I thought of leaving before I confirmed that I was pregnant because I was very sad at that time. I felt that North City hurt me too much.""Is Jay that kind of irresponsible person?" Quinn asked. "Didn't he try to keep you?" "Keep?" Zoe sneered. She waited for Jay for a day, but at last, he did not even call her. Forget it. It was just an accident. If it were

    Soon, another nurse emerged from the delivery room with a small bundle. "Is the mother's family here?""Yes!" John exclaimed loudly."The delivery was successful," the nurse said. "The baby weighs eight pounds—""How is she?" John asked in agitation, not caring about the child."She's fine. The doctor is just helping her clean up and she'll be out soon," the nurse replied.As John breathed a sigh of relief, the nurse reminded him, "Aren't you the father? Here's your child."John took the baby off her arms, staring at her for a moment as the others flocked around him. "Oh, she's so fair!" Zoe could not help exclaiming. "That's the most beautiful baby I've ever seen.""Are you saying that your son's ugly?" Bob teased."To be honest, yeah," Zoe replied without thinking.Jay cleared his throat—even if it was a subjective opinion, it still hurt to have his own baby called ugly."Let me carry her," Zoe volunteered just then, and John did not hesitate to hand her his baby.As Zoe

    "What?!" Zoe exclaimed in shock.Beside them, John's face fell despite being usually stoic.Still, even before anyone could react, he scooped Cordy up in his arms and left.Zoe did not hesitate to follow, but Jay reminded her, "We're the hosts, Zoe.""Don't care." Zoe was completely unconcerned. "Ask my mom and your sister to handle the guests. I'm going with Cordy!"Jay hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow since there was no reasoning with Zoe.Sam and Quinn also realized that something was out of place.As they pulled away reluctantly, Bob shouted from below, "If you're done kissing, we're going to the hospital! Cordy's going into labor!"Quinn hurried after them as soon as she hurt, but Sam caught her. "Slow down. We can catch up."In fact, most of the guests were leaving as well—it was as if the banquet for Zoe's son was actually intended for everyone else.The poor boy was certainly unlucky to have such unreliable parents!-As everyone rushed to the hospit

    "I'm swelling from my pregnancy," Quinn explained. "It's not your fault."Sam was left staring at her for a while before asking, "So, what should I do?""I'll put it on when I slim down.""Oh." Sam was a little disappointed, since he had always dreamed of having her put on the ring he had custom made.But this was fine—they had all the time they needed, and the most important thing for him is that Quinn was marrying him!He rose to his feet just then, and everyone was cheering as soon as he did. "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"Quinn blushed right then, and Sam could see that she was embarrassed.He did not want to make things awkward for her, even if he was quite eager at the moment.Heaven knows how much he missed that night's drunken fumble they had. In fact, during the times he remembered it in dreams, he had to wash his pants when he woke up.Still, just as he took Quinn's hand and started to leave, he felt a softness on his lips—Quinn was kissing him! Sam's heart pounded thunderous

    Everyone waited patiently for the final outcome.Quinn's eyes were welling up with tears, threatening to gush if she so much as blinked.She did her best to hold back her tears—to be strong!Sam pursed his lips in turn, his Adam's apple bobbing.A long while passed, and it felt like a century for Quinn when she finally heard him say, "Yes."Quinn's tears started falling in happiness as Sam declared loudly, "I'll marry you, Quinn—it's what I've always wanted to do! I won't let you go even if you regret it eventually! You only get to be with me, and I'll never let any other man claim you! I'll become very overbearing… eventually!""I won't regret it," Quinn said, determined.She certainly would not regret marrying him!Zoe walked up to them with perfect timing just then, and Sam did a double take.He finally remembered that Zoe was the host of this luncheon and was going to leave with Quinn when Zoe whipped out a small red velvet box."You know what's in here, don't you?"

    However, Sam had already pushed Quinn away before she could tell him. But even if he did not love her or did not want to be with her, she would never stay with Ryan.She had been disappointed in Sam, wondering why he would give up so easily.Was she that unimportant to him?Therefore, if it were not for Zoe and Cordy showing her that video or telling her so much, she would never have known that he loved her for years…Sam's heart ached even as he looked into Quinn's tearful eyes.He reached out a hand, but soon withdrew it—would he not burden her?Even so, it hurt to restrain himself as he watched her, and he was actually getting the feeling that Quinn loved him…But she already had Ryan's child…Well, he was fine with that, as long as the child was Quinn's.But would she not mind?"I will marry you, Sam," Quinn said slowly and clearly then. "Not because you're a good man, not because you prepared so much for me, and not because of how much you prepared for me, but because I

    Everyone in the hall was staring at Sam and Quinn, while Quinn took center stage, staring fixedly at Sam.He stood in the middle of the crowd, watching her silently.She in turn felt fear that he would turn and leave, just as she did not know if she had the courage to stand before him again and to declare her feelings for him in front of so many others.Nonetheless, amid the deafening silence, Sam suddenly walked toward the stage.His pace was slow as if his feet were made of lead, but he was also unusually determined.Quinn's heart raced uncontrollably right then!Everyone else was watching them nervously, especially Cordy and Zoe, with the latter being especially concerned that the cowardly Sam would bail.Fortunately, he was a man who showed responsibility. He would not leave Quinn alone and embarrassed.Hence, as everyone looked on, Sam stood before Quinn, his gaze flickering as their eyes met.He gulped ever so slightly, his emotions clearly ruffled even as he did his bes

    The guests were encouraging, loudly asking, "Why?!""Because of a woman," Sam's recording replied."Who is it?""Quinn Summer," the Sam on the screen said slowly and clearly, leaving the Sam who was in the hall stunned.What the hell?! That was the proposal video he prepared before! Why did it show up here? Did Zoe make a mistake?!He knew it—leave anything to Zoe, and she would mess it up!He started striding toward the stage, intent on stopping the recording, when John and Bob intercepted him with a look of utter guilt while the recording continued. "Quinn is my wife, and we've been married for years, but I've never really loved her—not because I don't, but because I'm afraid to. I feel too insignificant in comparison to the one she loves, so I'd always hurt her… painfully and childishly. I regret that so much now, Quinn. How could I have abandoned you for so long because of my own jealousy? I'd rather hold you in my sleep every night, but my damned pride denied me that for y

    At the banquet hall, Jay and Zoe were thanking their guests with their children in their arms.Then, Zoe announced excitedly, "Please give my best friend, who is also my son's godmother, a warm applause as she comes on stage!"Sam stood at a corner of the hall, watching as Quinn walked up the stage, only realizing just then that her belly was clearly swelling despite her baggy clothes.Time flies—he had not left that long ago, but she and Ryan already had a child.She was not worried about giving him a stroke, was she?He watched as Quinn took the mic and looked around below searching, seemingly searching.After a while, he thought she was looking at him, but by the time he looked up, she had already turned away.Maybe she was looking for Ryan before remembering that Ryan was not there?Nonetheless, Quinn spoke into the mic, saying, "I'm honored to be chosen as the godmother to Zoe's son, and she's been saying he'd be engaged to my child if it's a girl. I already love my godson

    As their eyes met, Sam turned frantic and averted his. "Of course.""Really?" Quinn asked."Would I lie to you?" Sam asked a little grumpily."And you didn't bring her back?" Quinn asked."I'm on a schedule, and it'd be taxing for her if I bought her along," Sam said, making things up as he went along. "I'll bring her along when things are less busy.""Is she pretty?" Quinn pressed."What, have I ever picked an ugly one?" Sam snorted smugly. "You know I prefer curvaceous types, and there are plenty of those abroad.""Do you have a photo?"Sam was silent for a while and eventually said, "Yeah.""Can I see it?""What, does she have to pass your assessment?""Just curious about the girl who can tempt you to settle down," Quinn replied. "You'd be humbled." Sam hastily came up with an excuse."I won't," Quinn said, determined."You'll see her when I bring her home." Sam refused nonetheless."I would like to see a photo now.""No, she's not that photogenic. It'd be slander a
