At this time, I was relieved in my heart.
When I walked out of the press conference, I saw Nancy and Paulina standing outside.
Upon seeing me, Nancy stepped forward and pushed me lightly, staring at me, "You are more capable, aren't you? You dared to bypass me and turned to my husband directly, didn't you?"
"No, I..."
"Do you want to argue? With your social circle, how can you hold a press conference? If you didn't turn to him, no one else would help you!"
Nancy directly interrupted me.
Seeing that she pursed her lips, I put my hands in front of my chest, lowered her head, and closed my eyes tightly, apologizing, "I'm sorry! It's true that turned to your husband for business rather than private affairs."
"How would I know?"
Nancy pouted.
Without looking up, I continued, "It's true, I promise. I found him in his company and stayed there for less than ten minutes before I came out." "And then?"
"And then? There is no then. I got the phone number of the one in charge of a PR company from your husband. I didn't do anything. Neither did I say extra words. I promise!"
In fact, I know that Nancy wasn't angry with me because of this.
She was surely angry about the fact that I hadn't told her about this matter, thinking that I didn't trust her.
I kept my head down.
And it was quiet.
Paulina, who was usually so talkative, stood on the side without saying anything.
In this way, after a dozen seconds, I finally heard Nancy's voice again, "If there is a next time, let's break up! Do you take me as your partner?"
Judging from Nancy's words, she had forgiven me, hadn't she?
I raised my head and saw that Nancy looked unhappy. Even so, Paulina burst out laughing on the side, "I was scared to death. I almost couldn't hold myself back any more!"
"I'm sorry." I hugged Nancy directly, "I didn't want you to be worried about me. I'm glad that Lawyer Michael and Matt came this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I would be slandered to a more serious extent. I'm afraid that I would affect you."
"In that case, you have more reasons to tell us about it so that we can run away in advance," Nancy said deliberately.
Hearing this, I looked serious and nodded, "I agree. If there is such a thing next time, I will inform you in advance."
"Will there be a next time? I'll beat you!" Nancy raised her hand and pretended to be angry, "Let me tell you, you have to treat us to have a seafood meal before we can get over this matter!"
"Alright, alright. There's no problem with treating you three times!"
I agreed decisively.
Nancy parked her car in the parking lot.
We walked to the parking lot together. For no reason, I felt empty in my heart and looked around.
Except for us, everyone else had almost left. And there was no one in the large open space.
There was no car on the side of the road.
I followed Nancy and looked around carefully.
Seeing that I didn't catch up with her, Nancy asked, "What's wrong?"
I shook my head.
"Didn't Patrick come?"
Originally, I thought he would come.
"Is he angry?"
For no reason, I felt nervous, bitter, and upset in my heart, feeling that something had happened to Patrick!
I looked at Nancy and said, "Well, you should go there first. I'll go home."
"I'll send you home." Nancy looked at me, "What's wrong with you?"
"I... I... I'm going to see Patrick."
I said to Nancy.
Nancy frowned slightly, "Then I'll send you off."
Nancy sent me to Rosy's home.
