Chapter 428 Timid and Stubborn

Everyone tried to persuade him not to punish Vera. Patrick was upset and got up to go out and saw Vera standing obediently in the hallway. "Vera, there's a chair next to you. Sit down and rest for a while." Randall whispered to Vera.

Vera was still sniffing. "No."

Randall glanced around at the doctors and nurses who had come to watch them stand. "Sit down."

Vera said, "If I sit down secretly and Patrick finds out, he'll lecture me again. I'm too scared.."

Hearing her aggrieved and timid voice, Patrick realized that his anger had frightened her this time.

She could go toe-to-toe in a fight, but couldn't handle a few words from him.

Patrick appeared in front of them, and Randall immediately stood up straight.

Vera looked up, her bloodshot eyes filled with tears. Because she had been crying, her eyelashes were distinct and curled.

After meeting his gaze, Vera immediately lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

Patrick swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing. He stood right in front of his wife, closing the distance until he was just inches away, then he stopped.

Randall turned his head to look at them, unsure whether he should make a quick exit. If he stayed, he'd be an obvious third wheel, but since his uncle hadn't dismissed him, he didn't dare to leave. Vera was so frightened by Patrick's gaze that she started to cry again.

Before Patrick could speak, Vera, who had always been fearless, burst into tears.

Patrick was helpless, thinking, 'How scary am I?'

Vera's sobs and sniffles, her shoulders trembling slightly, indicated that she was deeply saddened.

Patrick put his hands in his pockets and stood in front of her, watching her cry.
