Chapter 978

Patrick grinned. "So? Do you think we're a perfect fit for one another?"

Before Cordy could answer, the store assistant nearby promptly praised them sycophantically, 'Of course, Mr. Stuart! You and Miss Sachs are a match made in heaven-no one deserves each other more than you two!"

Patrick was obviously delighted from the obvious fawning, and there was no hiding the dazzling smile on his face.

Later, Cordy was escorted by the store's staff to the makeup station, while Patrick took a seat on a nearby couch and waited.

The staff who were helping Cordy with her makeup were getting embarrassed from his stare, and couldn't help teasing, "Are you that afraid we'd abduct Miss Sachs, sir?"

Cordy blushed, and snapped a little grumpily, "Could you keep your eyes to yourself, Patrick?"

"You're mine, so technically I am," Patrick replied, as if it made perfect sense. "I hadn't even looked at other women at all, y'know."

The staff all had a good amused chuckle, while Cordy was so embarrassed she could kill herself right on the spot.
