Blake's POV

In the corridor, I saw Patricia sitting alone on the sofa on the balcony in a daze. She had a napkin in her hand and was wiping her tears in silence.

When I reached the door of the balcony, Patricia shouted sternly, "Stop there!"

Her eyes were filled with tears. Then, I knew how serious the matter was. I stopped and stood quietly in front of her.
