Chapter 114 Patrick's Cryptic Jokes

It was as if he really didn't see anything in the afternoon.

Shawn also took a shower, no longer smelling of food, feeling satisfied but still wanting to eat more.

However, he was very delighted, happily chatting with Patrick and Vera. "Patrick, what did you name Vera's phone in your contacts?" "Cat."

"You guys are so strange. Other people use terms like 'dear' or 'wife' in their contacts, but you two use 'Cat' and 'Big Tiger,' so trendy." Patrick turned to look at Vera snuggling up to him, a strong smile on his face. "Am I the Big Tiger?"

Vera, referred to as cat by Patrick, replied, "You are my husband, known to the outside world as the king of the business world. The king of the forest is the tiger, so, dear, do you like this nickname?" Patrick replied, "I prefer 'Darling' as the nickname."

"Then you should change mine to 'Darling' as well." Vera hugged Patrick's arm, acting coquettishly, almost burying herself in Patrick's embrace.

Patrick flicked Vera's nose and said, "You are like a child."

Shawn thought to himself, 'Are Patrick and Vera showing off their affection to me?'

Randall wondered, 'Why doesn't Patrick hit Vera?'

It was getting late, and Patrick led Vera back to the bedroom.

The door was locked, Patrick took off his coat, and Vera hung it up. As she tidied up Patrick's clothes, he suddenly embraced her from behind, bending down with his lips near Vera's ear, enveloping her in a masculine scent. His lips were close to her earlobe as he asked in a low voice, "Vera, have you ever lied to me?"

As Vera was held, she tensed up. The warm breath in her ear made her blush instantly, feeling uncomfortable all over.

Had she lied to him? Of course, she had.

She had just lied to him in the afternoon.

At this moment, she remained silent.

Patrick turned her around, looking at the conflicted Vera, their eyes meeting. He asked again, "Have you lied to me?"

Vera pursed her lips, lowering her head and nodding.
