After Debbie finished looking at the photos, her face turned extremely gloomy."Are you sure these are two different people? Not just one person?"Apart from the clothes, they looked exactly the same. Afraid that she wouldn't believe her, Gladys swore to convince her."I'm telling you the truth! I was going to bring you some documents, and as soon as I arrived at the parking lot, I saw Patricia meeting Mr. Langley. I was afraid they would do something to hurt you, so I wanted to keep an eye on them for a while. Unexpectedly, I discovered another Randy. I distinctly saw him in the hospital ward, when I went downstairs, but then he got out of Mr. Langley's car. Most definitely, something fishy is going on."Debbie squinted her eyes, a hint of maliciousness flashed in them."So what you're saying is, Patricia didn't give birth to a single child initially? It was twins?"If that were really the case, wouldn't she have another obstacle?Gladys offered her a suggestion, "Ma’am, should we te
Patricia pretended to look calm as she stared at the medical book, but her mind was numb, unable to focus on a single word. His words from earlier echoed in her ears, and a blush slowly crept up to her ears.Martin uncomfortably pursed his thin lips, trying his best to divert his attention."Let me... I'll cook for you!" Patricia reacted strongly, slamming the medical book onto the bedside table, then jumped out of bed and left the room in a hurry.Watching her flee, Martin pulled at his loosened tie in frustration—Meanwhile, Patricia escaped to the kitchen, touching her flushed cheeks, wishing she could find a hole to hide in.She had sealed this emotion deep in her heart. But his unintentional words could easily resonate with her heartstrings.Patricia scolded herself while preparing dinner for Martin.Luckily, the fridge was fully stocked, and in no time, she had cookeda steaming bowl of spaghetti with marinara sauce. Finally, she topped the spaghetti with a sprinkle of herbs, pou
Meanwhile, at Riverside Apartments.Charles had been monitoring the online activities closely.Once he confirmed that all information about Fannie had been deleted, he felt relieved and prepared to take a bath and sleep.Jade grinned playfully, "You're something, kid. Truly a hidden expert. You caused a direct drop of twenty points in Langley Group's stock price. Do you know what twenty points means?"Charles snorted and sneered, "He deserved it. Who told him to bully Mommy? I will not let him get away with it.""He definitely deserves a lesson! Unfortunately, the Thompson Group, his rival company, took great advantage of it! Mr. Thompson from the Thompson Group is even worse than Martin! It's hard to fathom.""The Langley Group?" Charles frowned and immediately checked the Thompson Group's stock price.Sure enough, after Langley Group's stock price plummeted, the Thompson Group's stock price skyrocketed.It was obvious to Charles that this increase was abnormal. Someone had clearly t
When Patricia and Randy arrived at Basque Taste, Hunter had been waiting for a while.Today, Hunter wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his high nose bridge. His plain white shirt and black pants made him look slightly younger than when they last met, giving off a hint of his youthful high school days.The person in front of her involuntarily overlapped with the one in her mind.Patricia seemed to have found her childhood happiness again and couldn't help but smile, "Hunter, didn't we agree on half past eleven? It's not that time yet!"Hunter teasingly said with a smile, "I'm not used to making girls wait." Then he shifted his gaze to Randy, "Is this your son?"Patricia quickly pulled Randy forward and introduced him, "This is my son, Randy. Randy, this is Mommy's former neighbor, Hunter. Quickly call him Uncle Hunter.""Randy, hello! I didn't know your Mommy would bring you here today.""So I didn't buy you a gift," Hunter took out a candy from his pocket. "Do you like candies? I'l
Patricia and Hunter were engrossed in their conversation when they suddenly heard a commotion outside the private room."Mr. Langley, I'm really sorry. It was our employee's mistake. Room 001 has already been booked. Would you mind waiting a moment? I'll talk to the guests inside and see if they're nearly done.""If it's already booked, we can switch to another private room.""All the rooms are full! The guests in Room 001 have been here for a while now, so they should be almost done. Let me go in and check!""Alright!"Before Patricia could respond, the door was opened without warning. The manager, with a bowed waist, walked in with apologetic expression, "I apologize for the mistake made by our front desk. This private room was booked by someone last night, and the front desk didn't know, so they double-booked it for you. Look, have you finished your meal? If you have, can you vacate the room? As an apology, this meal will be complimentary, and I'll also give you 500 dollars in cas
Martin sneered, lips pulled back, "Does he, a grown man, need you to accompany him to buy clothes? Afraid of getting lost?""...?" Patricia really wanted to reply, "What's it to you?" But with Randy by her side, fearing his wild imagination, she forced the words down.Seeing her not answering, Martin's expression grew even more unpleasant.Alan and Luke were sitting on pins and needles, unable to bear it any longer. Alan mustered up the courage to speak, "Boss, we haven't resolved the matter of the new product launch yet. Should we go back and handle it first?"Martin ignored them completely, his hawk-like eyes darkly fixed on Patricia, as if he wanted to drill a hole right through her.With the boss remaining silent, Alan and Luke didn't dare to leave and could only obediently sit there.The atmosphere was oppressive, suffocating.Patricia seemed oblivious to Martin's gaze, her attention solely on Randy."Randy, you're not feeling well, so you can't eat spicy food, and you need to ta
Patricia intentionally guided Martin to the men's clothing evaluation section.While the clothes here were affordable, they boasted a wide array of styles, staying in step with current fashion trends.From the instant Martin entered the evaluation area, his brows knitted in disapproval, a look of displeasure etching across his face.Martin had a bitter feeling in his heart as he listened, "The budget section is fine! It's good to occasionally change your taste.""Is that so?" Patricia smirked slyly and pointed at a wine-colored wool coat on a mannequin behind the glass window. "If you want to change your taste, I think that coat looks good. You can try it on."Martin was used to wearing black custom suits all year round.He couldn't care less about clothes like this, especially in burgundy. He wouldn't even look at it. Knowing that she was intentionally provoking him, Martin wouldn't humor her. With a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, he readily agreed, "Why not give it a try?"
Martin's good mood instantly vanished, his smile freezing on his face. Before he could clearly see who it was, someone rushed over and affectionately held his arm."Martin, what are you doing here?"Martin's displeasure was evident as he asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"Debbie's face displayed shyness. "My mom and I came shopping and saw you in the elevator, so we came over to take a look! This is the budget area, why would you be here?"Glancing at the shopping bags next to her, her expression immediately darkened."Martin, did you buy all of these? How can you wear such inexpensive clothes? Be careful of getting skin diseases!"Randy and Patricia exchanged glances and grimaced, speechless.Patricia couldn't help but strike back, "I've been wearing budget clothes for many years, but why haven't I gotten any skin diseases? Other people wear them just fine, it's only you who's so delicate and can't wear cheap clothes."Debbie's face turned pale, and she lowered her head in sha
