But I had to talk to Nancy about this.
The next morning, I went to the studio and met Nancy at the door. She was surprised to see me, "Are you going to back to work as regular?"
Hearing her words, I was a little ashamed. I pulled her into the office and said, "Well... I may not come to the company recently, but I will make the design of the office building."
I thought, even if I worked as a servant for Patrick, he also needed time to sleep. I could sleep a few hours less to do my work.
Nancy was not surprised to hear my words. "Is it because of Patrick?"
"Yes." I nodded. "I think he needs someone to take care of him recently. I want to take care of him."
I didn't know if I could take care of him.
I just want to stay with him.
Although Nancy was a little tangled, she still said, "It's okay. You can go first. I will pass on my work to you, but I hope that your efforts will be rewarded."
"They will."
I nodded.
Nancy crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at me. "My silly girl, you leave a position as a brilliant designer but insist on working for a man as a servant. Since you have come to this situation, I really can't criticize you anymore. If he doesn't treat you well in the future, I will be the first to stop him."
"Thank you."
I opened my arms and hugged Nancy.
After all, I didn't know how long it would take to take care of him.
When I went back to the office to pack my things, I was thinking about who I should go to for achieve this.
If I went straight to Patrick, he would definitely reject me.
After thinking about it for a long time, the only one I can reach for help was Ned.
I packed up my things and went to Ned's house again.
But when I got out of the taxi, I saw Melissa in front of me make a phone call. I looked at her from a distance. Her face was full of anger, and she was shouting at the phone.
She has her back to me.
I walked over and heard her talking into the phone.
"We helped you so much in the past. Now my Patrick is just having a leg broken, not a high paralytic position. You said you don't want to do anything about it? How about this? If his surgery is successful and he is cured, don't blame me for not helping you in the future!"
"Who was she speaking to?" I murmured in my mind.
It seems to have something to do with Patrick?
I just stood a few meters away from her and listened.
Melissa stamped her feet angrily as if the person opposite her had said something. "You grew up with Patrick. Now is the time when he needs someone to take care of him most. Don't tell me those cliche. Just tell me whether you go or not!"
She paused. When the person on the other side finished, she said, "Well, Kelsi, our Cowell Family will never contact you in the future!"
After that, she hung up the phone directly.
She was angry and wanted to get on the car.
She saw me as soon as she turned back.
Kelsi?
I combined with what she had just made the call and immediately understood what was going on. I hurried over to her.
Melissa's face was not good when she saw me. "This is our home. What are you doing here!"
"Melissa," I was not angry. I walked to Melissa and said, "I want to ask you something."
"What?"
