I smiled awkwardly and put my hands on his shoulders. As he pinched my chin, I could only face him. Even so, I looked sideways. "Nothing, nothing at all," I replied uncomfortably. "Do you want me to check it by myself?" He paused for a moment and spoke in a trailed tone, "Hmm?" Hearing his tone... I was guilty. If Patrick went to investigate it, he surely could find out the truth. Hooking my arms around his neck, I looked down, kissed him on the forehead, and smiled, saying, "It's not a big deal. It's all over. Now it is not like I need your help in everything. I can also solve problems by myself." "Really?" "It's true." Patrick looked up at me with a somewhat profound look in his eyes. The two of us were so close to each other that I could even see my own reflection in his pitch-black eyes. He was silent for a while. Then he raised his hand and touched my hair, speaking somewhat helplessly, "Well, I'm sorry. It's my fa
"Then what do you like? I'll gift you with it." Patrick lowered his head and looked at me. I knew he was talking about cars. He had long disliked my MINI car at the price of over 20 thousand dollars which I had been driving for a long time. However, I held his arm and answered immediately without deliberating for even one second, "I like you." After hearing my answer, Patrick seemed to be a little surprised. But soon, the smile at the corner of his mouth was brighter. Lowering his head, he gently kissed me on the forehead with profound gentleness in his pitch-black eyes, "Well, okay. Then what you need to think about is what kind of wedding ceremony you want." "A wedding ceremony?" I was stunned. Thinking about it, it seemed that I indeed didn't even think about having another wedding ceremony with Patrick. After all, we were no longer young. And we had held a wedding ceremony. Despite the fact that I had married Patrick in th
"Water-like Pavillion?" Hearing Roger's words, Nancy and I understood immediately. Before we could say anything, Roger said, "I've asked the property developer about it. They reserved two suites for you two. So I wanted to choose the one next to you. I didn't expect that someone else would have reserved it early. So I purchased the one by that of the next door." By the time he finished his words, the waiter had brought wine over and poured two more cups of wine for us. "If we move over, we will be neighbors in the future, won't we?" Nancy understood. Roger nodded and waved to us, "I'll go first. After I am done with the things related to my wedding, I'll treat you to a meal specifically!" After he finished speaking, he left with Lisa. As they walked outside, I happened to see that Glenn pulled Cicely's little hand out of the corner of my eyes. Leaning over, he kissed Cicely's face, leaving me the view of his round head. Cicely, who origin
"What do you mean?" Hearing my words, Patrick raised his head. I said, "Yeah. She is a healthy grown-up. However, Roger treats her as if she were a child and takes care of her either she walks or has food. Of course, Lisa has to be angry." Patrick surely had got my point. He raised his hand and touched my head, saying, "Well, then be careful. But I will send a car to pick you up." "No problem." Although I didn't think it was necessary, I accepted it. I did so to rest assure Patrick. After the wedding ceremony, Ryan called me, saying that he decided to accompany Jessica to go back to the rehabilitation center of Holy Spirit Hospital to go through a systematic treatment until she fully recovered. In that case, I should be the one that took care of Glenn. Now that the relationship between Patrick and I had settled down, I agreed. That night, after school, I went to pick Glenn up. And we two went back to Unit Number One, City Y. A
At this time, the staff of the studio all went outside to watch us. There were three people standing here. Except for me, one of them was a leukemia patient and the other one was Patrick whose legs were disabled. I could only say, "Let's go to the conference room where we can sit down and talk." "All right." Patrick agreed. ...... I led them to the meeting room. Someone brought in two cups of tea and placed each in front of Patrick and Finn. Finn looked at the tea in front of him and sighed, "Alas! Maybe it's God's punishment that I have to see through who my biological daughter and my wife really are one day!" "What's wrong?" I asked. I only knew that Kelsi wasn't willing to do a marrow match. For this, Katy had come to see me before. How come Finn brought up Katy? Finn glanced at me, feeling somewhat embarrassed. "I'm sorry, Charlotte, I..." "Mr. Finn, please call me Janetta, thank you." I interrupted him a
Living a healthy and long life... What a simple wish it was. However, it wasn't until now that he, who suffered from an incurable disease, realized this point. Things like money, power, and social status were extraterrestrial. In the face of health, they were all secondary. Without health, everything would end up in vain. I held his hand and said, "Mr. ... Dad, I don't want your legacy. Take care of yourself. I believe you will definitely overcome the disease." "Thank you." Looking at me, Finn couldn't help but shed tears. After that, he turned around, intending to leave. I walked over to his side and said, "Let's send you there." "Yeah." Patrick said so behind me. Finn was a patient. And I was not sure how he got through. He spat blood from coughing just now. What if something happened to him on the way... "No need. No need. Just do your work. It's the driver who sent me here." Only after hearing
"Stop pretending. He remade a will. Why are you, who have gained an advantage, pretending here?" Standing behind the policemen, Kelsi sneered, "And now you are Mrs. Cowell. With the protection of Patrick Cowell, are you afraid that I will do something to you?" I looked at her and said seriously, "Yes, it's because that you can't do anything to me that I don't have to pretend." I added firmly, "I really don't know what you are talking about." Kelsi was stunned. She looked at me with a suspicious look in her eyes. She seemed to think that what I had said was true. And yet she didn't want to believe it. I continued, "And I'm not interested in your father's inheritance. After all, he didn't care about us when I was still in my mother's belly. He didn't show up in my life at all. "I grew up in an orphanage. He didn't know my existence. He didn't buy me clothes or dolls. He didn't take me to walk around the park. Neither did he ever take me to school.
I helped Patrick in. Originally, I thought that he came here to check the studio to see if he could help. Unexpectedly, after entering the studio, he said to Nancy without checking the studio at all, "Miss Nancy, let's have a talk." "Me?" Nancy was stunned. Pointing at herself and looking at me in disbelief, she seemed to be seeking my help with an inquiring look in her eyes, "What does Patrick want to talk to me about?" With a dazed look on my face, I shook my head and asked Patrick, "Why are you looking for her?" "You'll come with us." Patrick said. He looked serious. But I couldn't tell anything from his expression. However, since he said so, we couldn't refuse him. So I could only help him walk into the conference room." After the three of us sat down, Patrick said to Nancy, "I don't think it's safe here." ...... Hearing his words, I suddenly understood what Patrick was going to say to Nancy! He wan
