It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1487

When Patricia woke up the next morning, there was no sign of Tom anywhere. In her mind, the crazy night seemed unreal, but her aching body was telling her it had not been a dream and they had gratifying sex on this soft bed.

She got up and walked downstairs. The morning sun came through the glass windows. Patricia was in a happy mood because Tom didn't get angry even after she deceived him. "What am I going to do today? It's so boring to be staying home alone," she mumbled to herself. They still hadn't seen Leena, and Michelle had to go to school. So, Patricia was really bored.

"Mrs. Qin, what do you want for breakfast?" Zanna, the housekeeper, asked when she saw Patricia. The housekeeper was sent by Tom's mother to take care of her son. Zanna was good at reading people's minds, and Tom's mother trusted her very much.

"Don't bother, Zanna. I'll eat whatever is available." Patricia gave her an awkward smile for waking up late. With a secret smile, she thought, 'This is all Tom's fault. If not for him, I wouldn't have gotten up so late.'

"All right then. I'll serve you the same breakfast Mr. Qin had this morning." Zanna was in her forties. She looked pleasant and amiable, and not the kind who would make trouble.

"All right. Thank you, Zanna." She smiled at the housekeeper. Perhaps it was because she came from a family of equal social rank, so she didn't feel uncomfortable living in such an enormous villa. Neither did she feel awkward having a servant attend to her needs.

After breakfast, she drove to a market selling home decorations. Patricia wasn't very fond of their bedroom design and wanted to buy fashionable items to enhance the space. Tom had told her she could replace everything in the house as she wanted. Patricia decided not to redecorate the entire room, but only to add colorful ornaments.

She was in the middle of bargaining for a porcelain vase when she got the call from Tom's mother, Pamela. Her mother-in-law requested to see her, so Patricia laid down the vase and turned to leave. But the storekeeper suddenly stopped her as she decided to accept the price Patricia wanted. Unfortunately, the customer had changed her mind because of more important things that needed her attention.

Pamela, a well-educated woman, had graduated from a distinguished university in S City. She was beautiful and came from a wealthy family. It was love at first sight for Tom's father, but he had courted her for a long time before they became a pair.

"Patricia! Over here!" Pamela called out. Patricia arrived shortly at the restaurant and searched for Tom's mother. Aside from Pamela, there were other middle-aged women sitting at the table.

"I'm here, Mom," Patricia said as she walked up to the table. "Good morning, aunties." She greeted the ladies politely, though she didn't know who they were. She then sat next to Pamela.

She discreetly looked at her mother-in-law's companions, trying to figure them out. "So, this is your son's new wife! She is indeed pretty and very polite," one of the women, wearing dazzling jewels, said.

While she appeared to be praising Patricia, disdain was evident on her face. Graciously, Pamela replied, "As long as Tom loves her, I don't have a problem with anything about her." She was aware of why her female companions asked her to call Patricia and have her come over. All the women were wives of wealthy men. They hung out together and showed off everything — their husbands, sons, and daughters, as well as sons- and daughters-in-law. And frankly, this annoyed Pamela a little.

Pamela's statement humbled Patricia. The first time she met Tom's mother, she found her quite amiable. Now, she liked her even more because of her character. Patricia believed they would make good friends in the future.
