"—I'm in Underground parking lot, come over here." Patrick ended his call.
Alice was stunned. It took her a long time to react that she pushed open the door and anxiously ran out.
She took the elevator and directly arrived at Underground parking lot.
The Underground parking lot was huge and empty. Alice looked around.
Patrick stood in front of his Porsche and waved at her. She immediately ran over and asked anxiously, "Is that child really William's?"
Patrick stood in front of her, and his gaze swept her urgency. The smile on his face froze, and he didn't say a single word.
"Hurry up and tell me, is what you found accurate or not?"
Alice asked.
Patrick's lips moved gloomily, "I thought you would be happy to hear this news."
However, from her look, she didn't seem excited at all.
It made him uncomfortable.
"Why should I be happy?"
"Because you said it before, William came to find you for the sake of his child." Patrick said, "Now that his real child has appeared, shouldn't you be happy? You can get away now, right? "
Alice was speechless, and the light in her eyes dimmed.
That's right, she should be happy to hear such news. She could finally tell William out loud that he had made a mistake, and the person he was looking for was not her.
She could tell William to find his real child and not force her to have a baby.
She should be happy.
But what was stuck in her heart and made her uncomfortable?
"What are you thinking?" Patrick looked at her and asked.
Alice's lips moved, and asked, "I just want to know, is your information accurate?"
"Nope." Patrick said honestly, "I had originally planned to investigate everything thoroughly before telling you, but yesterday ..."
Thinking of the kiss in the alley last night,
Patrick stared deeply at her and stopped talking for a moment.
Alice did not look into his eyes.
Patrick's face immediately became somewhat pale, "I was worried that you would think of calling the police again, so I decided to tell you first, in case you think I haven't done anything."
Alice was startled, her fingers tightly griping the bag in her hands. She had been prepared to pull Daniel along to report to the police.
She didn't think that he would suddenly mention the matter regarding the child.
"Should we go and verify it together?" Patrick took a step back and opened the car door, looking at her with a gentle gaze.
Alice stood there without moving.
Patrick did not urge her, and waited quietly.
For a long time, Alice walked forward step by step and sat in his car.
There was no expression on her face. There was a complicated look in her eyes. She didn't know what she was going to do.
On the way, Alice remembered what Mary and Rosanna had a secret meeting at the hotel.
Rosanna said that she had something up her sleeve that she shouldn't be killed by William, and they had even discussed the matter with each other earlier, so Rosanna knew that William wanted to have a child ...
Now that she thought about it, everything seemed to be in order.
It was likely that Rosanna was quite frightened by what happened three years ago and was afraid of William, so even now, she still did not dare to recklessly carry the child out.
Patrick drove steadily, turning his head to glance at her from time to time.
Every time he looked at her, he felt she was distancing herself from him.
His hand tightened on the steering wheel, his lips tightened, and his narrow eyes dark.
These things had to be solved, and the sooner the better.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to find the past.
The journey was very long. Patrick drove the car into the suburbs, and stopped in front of a two story white building. There were many plants growing in front of the building, flourishing under the sunlight.
Alice looked up and realized that the second floor's window was where the photos were taken.
In front of the building stood ten bodyguards, each of them with their hands behind their back, guarding the entire small courtyard.
Patrick stopped the car.
The bodyguards immediately strode over and stood in front of the car, respectfully bowing their heads. "Young Master."
They were Patrick's people.
Alice looked at Patrick in puzzlement and Patrick explained in a gentle voice, "I sent people to follow Rosanna for two days and discovered that she was preparing to leave the country when Mary successfully extorted her a sum of money. Thus, I sent people to stop her and keep her in this house."
Hearing that, Alice looked at him in shock.
He placed Rosanna under house arrest?
"I really want to help you, Alice." Patrick looked at her steadily, "I am not trying to please you. I have my own thoughts, so I hope you can trust me."
His tone was gentle, without the slightest hint of aggression, and it was completely different from William's usual words.
It was hard to not believe.
Alice understood that if he did not want to help her, then he would not have investigated this matter.
"Sorry." Alice got off the car and apologized to Patrick lightly, "But I can do it by myself, you have no reason to help me."
Yesterday's kiss in the alley still choked her.
She did not want to have too Millerch interaction with a married Patrick, because that was something that she could accept.
