Chapter 395 I'm Busy

Patrick handed the nutritional drink to a passing servant. "Give this to Vera. If she asks where I am, tell her I'm in the study." The servant, always professional, did as told.

Soon enough, Vera and Molly walked into the living room, arm in arm. Vera was saying, "Trust me, I know Patrick," with pride. The servant stopped them, holding Vera's special cup. "Mrs. Olteran, the nutritionist made this for you."

Vera recognized the cup and waved it off. "You drink it for me."

Before the servant could respond, she asked, "Where's Patrick?"

Following instructions, the servant said Patrick was in the study.

Vera pulled Molly along to the study, leaving the nutritional drink with the servant.

At the door, she knocked, and Patrick's voice responded.

Pushing the door open, she called out, "Honey."

Vera's cheerful voice lifted Patrick's spirits.

Having overheard Vera and Molly earlier, Patrick was ready for them.

Molly, straight to the point, said, "Patrick, I need to tell you something, but I have no proof."

She repeated what she had told Vera.

Patrick was momentarily stunned. "The day before yesterday?"

Molly nodded.

Patrick and Vera both suspected the man was Jeffrey.
