L — ily looked at him, her heart trembling fiercely.
He said that he was anxious to return to the previous Patrick, the Patrick who only liked Alice.
Patrick was really back.
After so many years, he had finally returned.
Alice lowered her gaze, her eyes uncontrollably becoming wet once again.
She had waited in despair, and he finally returned.
"Now, you believe that I'm not flirting with you, right?" Patrick pinched her nose and laughed.
Alice nodded with all her might.
For Patrick who possessed memories of the past, no matter what he said, she believed them completely.
"You've wronged me for so long." Patrick laughed helplessly: "I'm not that bad."
How could he be willing to just have fun with her?
Alice blinked her moist eyes, feeling a little guilty.
She hadn't realized that his performance was very obvious.
Yet, she thought he was a scum.
"Enough, stop crying." Patrick patted her head, and sighed, "Really, I was waiting for everything to be settled. I wanted to tell you in a more romantic place. I didn't expect you to meet all of this so easily."
Alice sniffed, "It's good that you remember."
At least, he didn't become a fool.
In a few years, if he became a fool and she discovered the truth, she would die from sadness.
"Is your expectation that simple?" Patrick looked at her deeply, "This is not the only thing I want."
His voice was deep and deep, and very pleasant to listen to.
Alice looked at him in a daze. What did he mean by wanting more than just this?
Patrick stared at her, the deep love in his eyes hard to ignore, he pressed one hand on her shoulder, his face slowly leaning towards her, then his gaze landing on her lips.
Alice stared fixedly at the face that was close to her and subconsciously shrunk her body.
The expression in Patrick's eyes froze, a hint of disappointment flashed past, and his lips landed in front of her lips, not even two centimeters away.
"Can I?"
Patrick asked.
Alice's mouth was agape, not knowing what to answer.
He was Patrick, the Patrick who had pampered her for everything. Anything he did could be done by her, right?
"I thought you were the default." Patrick muttered, as he lowered his eyes to gaze at her light pink lips, about to kiss her.
A bell suddenly rang.
Alice turned her face to look at her bag;
When Patrick's kiss fell on her face, he couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"This is bad!" The moment she saw her own bag, Alice immediately remembered everything, "William still wants me to pick him up! Oh no, I'm going to be scolded to death by him this time!"
Damn it.
She had actually forgotten all about it. Alice immediately rushed over to grab her bag, her arm being held tightly by someone.
She turned her head and saw Patrick staring at her. The loneliness in his eyes could not be more obvious, "Don't go."
"Patrick!"
"Call me Patrick."
Alice pursed her lips, looked at his face, and then obediently said, "Patrick."
Patrick frowned slightly, "Don't go, stay here. I don't want you to return to his side."
"I can't not go, he's William."
She couldn't afford to offend him.
"Stay by my side and leave everything to me." Patrick stared at her as he spoke, his hand tightly holding onto her arm, afraid that she would leave once he let go.
The meaning behind his words was obvious. He had come to carry it for her.
Alice was not unmoved by these words.
He finally returned to the Patrick from before, the Patrick who would still tell her to "leave it to me" even if he couldn't see anything.
But no, that person was William, not an ordinary person.
The Miller Group was in a mess right now, he wouldn't be able to carry another William's attack.
"It's fine, I can do it." Alice smiled at him, "Didn't we already make our plans? Let Rosanna get close to William."
She now believed that Patrick would sincerely help her.
The current Patrick, she believed one hundred percent.
"That's just because I want to know if you're willing to leave William. I'm afraid that you've fallen in love with him." Patrick said with an unconfident expression.
Hearing this, Alice's fingertips trembled. She laughed with difficulty, "How is this possible, how can I fall in love with William?"
That paranoia, that man who was married and still had a bunch of lovers, how could she fall in love with him?
She also had the most basic principles of being a human being.
"Then don't go back." Patrick stared at her, afraid that she would disappear, "I still have a lot of things say to you, stay by my side. If the sky falls, I will be taller than you."
These words were something that Patrick liked to say when he was young.
At that time, he knew that he could not protect her as a blind person, but he always said, at least when the sky falls, I will be taller than you, and with me, you will not die.
"Miller is in a mess right now. You have too many things to do, so stop worrying about me." Alice said.
"Alice!"
Alice reached out her hand and placed it on top of his hand, smiling as she said, "Trust me, I will settle this matter well."
Patrick lowered his head to look at her hands, his lips pursed.
"Alright, I really can't stay here any longer. I'm leaving first."
