You Are My One and Only

Chapter 227

Chapter 227

Patricia glanced calmly at him. "What do you mean by that? I'm actually here to get you to let us off the hook!"

With three kids, she hoped that they would leave her and her family in peace after clearing the debt.

Yet, Blake nearly dropped to his knees as he cried out, "Miss Aniston, I've learned my lesson and I won't do this ever again! The five hundred thousand is my compensation for Miss Sylvie's hospital bill."

A surprised look flashed across Patricia's eyes as she did not expect him to have such decency.

She stopped resisting and said, "Okay. If that's the case, then you should cover the cost of Sylvie's hospitalization. I've spent twenty thousand, so I'll transfer the balance of it back to you."

This was the first time Blake had ever encountered someone as stubborn as her. He reckoned she must be an idiot to reject a gift horse in the mouth! However, he experienced first-hand how she behaved in a frenzied state and it was a terrifying ordeal.

"Miss Aniston, I'll be frank with you. You're Mr. Arnold's woman and I can't afford to offend him, so we can't accept the money. Please don't come over to the company anymore." At this point, even a loanshark was terrified of her.

As soon as she heard Isaac's name, she immediately caught on to things. It's because of him. Then, a faint smile appeared on her visage as she got up. "I'll leave, then."


She could tell that her presence in this office terrified this man and she was not too sure what Isaac had done to the man.

She walked out of the loan company and sat in her car. Subsequently, she transferred six hundred thousand to Darcie.

'Darcie, this is a present for Poppy. You don't have to repay me the money.'

After Patricia sent the text, she blinked her large eyes and looked at the clear skies outside. What a nice weather.

She wondered what Isaac was currently up to and whether he was busy with work at the company. It was close to 12.00PM, so she wondered whether he had taken his lunch. As such, she dialed his number after which he answered the phone quickly.

"Hello," he greeted in a neutral tone and one could hardly tell his emotions from his voice. He spoke to her as if he was speaking to a stranger.

Suddenly, Patricia could not contain her dejectedness. However, she brushed it off with a smile. "President Arnold, where are you right now? I would like to treat you to lunch."

At that moment, Isaac was seated in front of his work desk after a busy morning. He had just ended a conference call and was exhausted. His voice was also hoarse from the excessive cigarettes he had puffed on.

"I'm at the company. I'm happy that you're treating me, but could you come over to my office, and perhaps we can eat here?"

So, the big boss is actually very busy with work and even has to work over the weekend. In comparison, she had the entire weekend off. As soon as she thought of that, she realized that he was a great employer.

"Okay. I'll buy the food and bring it over to your office. I won't take too long. I should be there in half an hour. If you're hungry, then there are some snacks in the pantry that are specifically for you."

She was his personal secretary, so she was aware of all of his matters.
