Patrick had practiced martial arts before. After the boy kicked him, he didn't move. Instead, he kept staring at me. I didn't know what had happened at all. I continued to say to Patrick, "Be careful!" Patrick focused his attention on the boy. And the boy was punching him. He caught the boy's fist. With a backhand grasp, he directly restrained the boy with ease! "Ah! Let go of me!" The boy was no match for him. "Apologize to her." Staring at the boy with a determined look in his eyes, Patrick showed no sign of compromise. The boy didn't think that he had done anything wrong at all. Instead, he shouted, "Do you know who I am? Let me tell you, the hotel in front of you is operated by my father!" "Oh, I see." Patrick looked up at the hotel in front of him. The boy's girlfriend was anxious. She came up and intended to catch Patrick. I quickly stepped forward and pushed her away. Patrick took out his cell ph
I was no longer a young girl. I had let go of Patrick in my heart. Even so, when I looked at him, I couldn't help but be confused. Patrick's car was quite high-end. Its sound insulation effect was good. Sitting in the quiet car, I seemed to hear the sounds of my heartbeat! He just looked at me. Sensing his staring, I became more and more flustered. And my face turned redder and redder. As I thought he was going to kiss me... "Crack!" There was a loud sound. It was the sound of buckling the seat belt. He sat back and asked me with a smile in his black eyes, "What? Are you a little disappointed? Do you think I will kiss you?" "Director Ji, please don't joke with me." I faced outside the car to hide the fact that my heart was about to jump out. Five years had passed. Even so, I could be easily teased by him. I felt that I was so worthless. The car was speeding all the way. My mind was in a mess. And I didn't not
Squinting at me out of the corner of his eyes, Patrick focused on driving saying nothing further. In the mountain, the wind was strong. And it rained heavily. However, there was only some drizzle at the foot of the mountain. The car drove all the way to Unit.1, City Y. I couldn't be more familiar with this place. Watching the car enter the residential quarter, I said quickly, "Mr. Cowell, where are we going?" Patrick said nothing. Feeling terrified, I grabbed the handle of the car door and said nervously, "Mr. Cowell, if you're planning to take me to your house, I'm going to jump off the car." "Feel free to do so." Patrick held the wheel tightly with both hands without even looking at me. It seemed that whether I was alive or not had nothing to do with him. In fact, I dared not to jump off the car. My foot was injured. If I jumped off the car, I surely would be injured. And I probably would be run over by a car at worst. In t
Shelton got in the car as well. He drove me away. Sitting in the passenger seat, I saw that Patrick had been standing there motionlessly through the rearview mirror. Stopping the car at the parking slot downstairs, he got out of the car first and opened the car door for me. Reaching out his hand out to me, he said, "Mind your step." "Thank you." Supported by Shelton's hand, I stood up. With Shelton's support, I hobbled into the elevator. In the elevator, I roughly told Shelton about the recent situation of this project. My clothes on my body were completely soaked wet. When we reached the door of Shelton's room, he took out the key to my room and asked, "Your clothes in previous days are in your house. I'll get one set for you. While you should take a bath at my house." "Taking a shower at his house?" I found it a pretty embarrassing thing. Leaning against the door of my house, I said, "How about I go back to my home to take a
Instantly, Patrick's flavor was all over my mouth. He was so overbearing that I couldn't refuse him! "Oh!" I tried my best to push him! But Patrick got overwhelming strength. Holding me in his arms tightly, he kissed me so hard as if he wanted to swallow me alive. As he kissed me, I could feel that something at the bottom of my heart... Bits by bits... Bits by bits, it was surging up. I couldn't suppress it any longer! "No!" "No!" "I am not Charlotte Archer now. I'm Janetta Nolan." "I don't want to go back to the past!" Finally, I regained my senses and bit Patrick's lips hard! "Hiss." He felt the pain and raised his head in the end. He looked at me. Inside his profound and dark eyes, there seemed to be various complex emotions surging inside. I tried my best to suppress all the feelings in my heart, put on a disgusted expression, and raised my hand... "Bang!" I slapped Patrick on his face.
I knew it. I always knew that Shelton would be a good husband as well as a good father. However ... "You are my best choice. But..." Staring at Shelton, I hesitated for a moment and said, "You are so good that I want to completely let go of the past before accepting you. Otherwise, it is unfair to you." Wearing a pair of transparent-framed spectacles, Shelton looked as gentle as ever. Hearing what I said, he revealed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. He wasn't surprised to hear my words at all. He reached out and grabbed my hand, passing the warmth on his palm to me. And he shook his head gently, "I won't force you to prioritize me. As long as I'm by your side, I will be fine with it. You don't have to put too much pressure on yourself." "You're always like this. That's why I wanted to prioritize you." I said to Shelton. I was no longer a child. I surely knew that I had to be with someone who deserved my love. ......
After I said that, Patrick's eyes dimmed. Fearing that he would misunderstand me, I smiled slightly and added, "Ever since my parents left me, I realized that what they said was right." "Your parents..." "They died in a flight disaster." When I spoke, I had a calm look on my face. I was neither sorrowful nor sad. It wasn't because I wasn't talking about my own matters. Instead, it was because, before this, I had figured out how I should tell others if this matter happened to me. I thought that with my character, I surely wouldn't cry or show too much pain. Looking at me, Patrick was silent for a long time. Then he said, "Sorry, I didn't know about this." "It's all right. It is a matter of the past. I have to move on." As I put down all the documents in my hands on the table one after another, my cell phone rang. It was a call from Calvin. I talked to him about some things about the project on the phone. When I hung
I was taken aback by what I saw. They kissed fervently for a long time. Many passers-by couldn't help but look in their direction. However, they unscrupulously kissed each other as if no one were around them. Seeing such a scene, I felt that my heart thumping wildly! I couldn't be convinced by what I had seen at all! "Why did Kelsi kiss another man?" "Did she cheat on Patrick?" "Did Patrick know about this?" For a moment, I was in a mess on my mind. The two of them kissed each other for about two minutes before they parted. With the man wrapping his arm around Kelsi's waist, the two of them snuggled to each other and passed by me. They left. Seeing Kelsi leave, I had an inexplicable feeling in my heart. Kelsi was a characteristic young lady from a rich family. How could she be such a person? Who on earth was this man? When I was hesitating, my cell phone rang. The workers from Town S had got off the pla
