Chapter 257 Following Cindy

Since Vera blamed him, Patrick knew that if he didn't prove his ability, Vera wouldn't be afraid. "I'll work hard tonight; don't cry under me."

Vera shuddered at the thought of certain nights, saying, "I'm going to take a shower."

Wrapped in a blanket, Vera headed to the bathroom. Patrick scared her by pulling the blanket away. Now exposed, Vera quickly dashed into the bathroom to hide. What if Patrick wanted to make love to her early in the morning?

Patrick could see through Vera's thoughts with just a glance.

With a doting smile, Patrick said helplessly, "I've met my match."

Patrick's match was taking a shower in the bathroom.

Knowing that Vera had sobered up, Patrick knocked on the bathroom door and informed her, "I'm going to the study. If you get bored, come find me there." Vera said, "Okay. Patrick, can you tell the chef I'm hungry?"

Patrick left the room with a smile.

He first instructed the maid to prepare food for Vera, then called Randall to the study.

He asked him, "How did it go last night? Did you follow him?"

Randall replied, "I followed him halfway. He parked his car by the roadside to make a call, then turned around and took Emma to the hospital."

Randall was very curious about who had hit Emma in the face. "Judging by the force, it looks a bit like Vera's punch?"

"That's Vera's punch," Patrick confirmed.

Randall clapped his hands excitedly and pointed at Patrick. "Uncle Patrick, I bet Molly last night that the injury on Emma's face was from Vera. Mia didn't believe it; she thought Vera would hit all over the body, not just the face. See, I won." Patrick said, "Molly wasn't wrong either. Vera did hit her elsewhere, but the face was the worst."

Randall insisted, "That still means I won."

Patrick chuckled and casually asked, "Does Vera usually drink with you guys?"

"When the three of us hang out, the girls drink beer. At our class reunions, I always make sure they drink beverages they picked and never let them out of their hands. What's wrong?" Patrick rarely praised Randall, "Good job."

Randall was flattered and felt a bit unreal.
