Chapter 1590: Why am I the only one who received two gifts from Father?

freewebnovel.com

Hayley and Teddy were like two sides of the same coin. The only difference was that Hayley had a strange side to her. While Teddy seemed perpetually unhappy with everything in the world, Hayley could light up just by catching a glimpse of Slater-her so-called male god.

To Patricia, it was strange. She had known Slater since they were kids. Sure, he had always had that angelic face, but Patricia knew too much about him to understand the girls who were willing to carry his children just for a smile.

But who would've thought Hayley wasn't just like that with Slater?

Was she like this with every prospective love interest?

"Come on, Patricial" Hayley clung to her arm, letting herself get dragged toward their office. "Just once. I swear it won't affect our friendship. Don't you want me to become your sister?"

Patricia's expression remained deadpan as she kept her eyes on the hallway ahead.

*I don't think my brother is ugly,* she thought. *But at the same time, I've never understood the girls who dated him.*

Maybe it was just a sibling thing. In her eyes, Theo looked average. Very average. She glanced at Hayley, who was still practically begging.

"I'll think about it, okay?" Patricia relented as they reached the department entrance. "But let me warn you-my brother is busy, so don't play with his heart. He's kind, and people sometimes take advantage of that. And he's very important to me. So, if you break his heart, I'll break you."

Hayley straightened up and nodded enthusiastically.

"I promise," she said, raising a hand in a mock oath. "If I play games, you may break me as many times as you want."

Patricia scrunched up her nose and shrugged, choosing not to dwell on it. It was just a casual date. Nothing to worry about. Besides, she liked Hayley-though she wasn't sure if she and Theo would even click.

Her thoughts halted as they arrived at the department entrance, and Patricia's eyes immediately landed on Teddy and Shawn.
