Chapter 374

Agency S was perfectly located, just a stone’s throw away from all sorts of restaurants downstairs. After consulting with Seraphina, Patrick decided to go to his regular restaurant.

Once they sat down, Seraphina handed the menu over to Patrick. Without much thought, he ordered two sets and shooed the waiter off. “We’ve got lobster and lamb chops here,” Seraphina said. “You ordered such a fancy meal for me, how much weight am I gonna gain?”

Patrick glanced at her, grinned, and said, “You’re so skinny, you could eat more.”

Seraphina raised an eyebrow. “Most men say that. But when a woman actually puts on weight, the result is usually being rejected.” Patrick chuckled, “I mean it, really.”

Seraphina took a sip of water, keeping her own counsel.

Then Patrick asked her why she was at Agency S.

“I asked a friend to dig up some info for me,” she responded.

“Dig up what? Need a hand?” asked Patrick.

Seraphina gave him a sidelong glance, smiling. “If you’re willing to help, that’d be great. But I don’t want to cause you any trouble.”

“No sweat,” Patrick said. “You’ve helped me out a lot before, I’ll help you. What’re you looking for?”

Seraphina looked at him calmly, slowly saying, “I want to find out about the women who were treated at Mercy LifeCare Hospital from April to July.” Patrick nodded and said, “It’s not easy, but I think I can help you.”

“You have got so many elite people working for you, it can’t be difficult.” Seraphina said, “I’ll leave it to you then.”

Patrick grinned, “I’d be happy to.”

Seraphina also grinned, then said, “Aren’t you gonna ask me why I’m looking for this?”

“You’re looking for it, you’ve got your reasons.” Patrick looked down, smiling before looking back up at her. “What I want to know is, why’d you come back to Starhaven on your own?”

Now that’s an interesting question.

Seraphina looked at him, slowly saying, “I came back to deal with my mom’s estate.”‘”
