Chapter 78 Honey's Help Doesn't Need Thanks

Vera's smile became even more charming, and she really wanted to hug Patrick now.

Her cheeks were rosy and she locked eyes with Patrick. "Why are you suddenly so nice to me?"

"Do I need a reason?" Patrick countered.

Vera asked, "Just because I'm your wife? There's no other reason?"

"What reason do you want?"

He didn't understand what answer she was looking for. After he finished speaking, Vera's smile gradually faded, and finally she said with a slight smile. "I'm going to take a shower now, thank you for what you did for me today." Patrick felt that she was originally very happy, but her happiness diminished after he asked the last question, and she eventually found an excuse to leave.

He was puzzled; did he say something wrong?

In the bathroom, Vera looked at herself in the mirror with a sense of loss.

These days, all she heard from Mia and Randall was that Patrick was being nice to her because he had developed feelings for her, and she almost believed it. Just now she asked.

The only reason Patrick was being nice to her was because she was the girl he married, there were no feelings involved. It was just because she was lucky enough to be his wife, and if it were someone else, he would treat them the same way. Vera sighed in disappointment. "What are you dreaming about, reality is almost unrecognizable."

She went to take a shower.

Lost in her thoughts, she spent a bit too long in the bath, to the point where Patrick almost entered the bathroom to pull her out.

"I'm done, coming out soon," Vera said.

She wrapped herself in a towel and walked out of the bathroom. "You go take a shower."

Patrick saw the droplets of water on her body, and the slightly flushed cheeks from the bath.
