Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 927 Patricia and Bryan's Side Story

After Patricia returned to being Patrice Wade, she thought that her entanglement with the cold, heartless man from Eprand was over for good. She didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.

A single glance had cost her a lifetime of regrets.

Because of him, she had broken off an engagement, left her family, changed her name, and followed him around without any status or recognition. She had to bear the world's scorn for "sleeping her way to the top". She even had to watch him court a young lady from a prestigious family that others claimed was compatible with him.

She had gone from being the "it girl" in Eprand to a debased mistress. Despite that, the man who knew about everything that she had sacrificed remained cold-hearted, too stingy to offer her even the slightest affection. least she had woken up in

She thought that she deserved it, as she had forced herself into this relationship. But time. It wasn't too late to turn back and reclaim her rightful place.

She was back to being a daughter from the Wade family, while he continued being the president of Swanson Corporation and the eldest son of the Swanson family.

Her parents had even arranged a blind date for her. If the marriage worked out, it would benefit both families tremendously.

Patricia didn't refuse. In fact, she was quite willing. After all, she had already hurt her parents once because of Bryan, and she wanted to make it up to them.

Besides, the guy, Alex Harrington, was a good match. They were of the same social standing, and they were similar in age. He had just returned from studying in Bredal. He was a handsome man, and overall, he was a solid choice.

After spending a few days getting to know him, Patricia thought that he was pretty decent. Most importantly, the young man confessed that it was love at first sight for him.

Loving someone else had always been too painful for her. Maybe it was time for her to experience what it felt like to be loved.

She dated him for three months. Everything was fine, except for one thing-she never really felt that spark.

However, Patricia had heard that most relationships and marriages weren't built on passionate love. How many people had ever experienced an earth-shattering love anyway? Most people just settled for someone who was suitable for them, spending the rest of their lives together.

By that standard, Patricia thought that she and Alex were perfectly compatible. Hence, they got engaged and then married.

On her wedding day, an unexpected guest showed up at the reception-Bryan Swanson.

Patricia hadn't expected to see him. For a moment, her meticulously made-up facade showed a crack. However, she quickly regained her composure, smiling as she and her new husband raised their glasses to Bryan.

"Thanks for coming to my wedding. Don't you have a congratulatory word for me, Mr. Swanson?"

The composed, mature man stared at her with an intense, stormy gaze, unable to say a word. At that moment, Patricia felt a rush of satisfaction.

How nice.

She didn't care about Bryan anymore. She had truly started a new life, while he, on the other hand, hadn't forgotten her. He was even losing his cool because she had so freely moved on and married someone else.

Bryan just stood there, his gaze locked on her. The tension was so thick that even Alex sensed that something was off. He pulled Patricia closer to him by the waist.

When Bryan saw Alex openly claiming what was his with his arm, his eyes burned with fury.

Eventually, it was William who pulled Bryan aside, while Patricia continued smiling as she walked to the next table
