Chapter 145


    The car stopped steadily, and the driver immediately opened the door in a careful manner. The man in


    the back seat came out, but the woman with him hesitated.


    "Come out..."


    Patrick stood outside the car door and nced at the woman inside with a sullen expression.


    Christina felt guilty when he looked at him, especially when she looked up at the nursing home before


    her, which was surrounded by a white wall. She became more nervous.


    It had been nearly half a year since she hade to see her aunt Betty. She looked down at her


    obviously bulging abdomen.


    She was pregnant for so long, but she didn''t have the guts to tell Betty about her pregnancy.


    "You never mentioned me to her?"


    Patrick''s face darkened. He was very dissatisfied.


    "I''ve been looking for the right time..." Christina had to pop her head out of the car and find an excuse


    for herself.


    The two of them walked side by side towards the door of the nursing home.


    After thinking for a while, she told him, "By the way, when you see my aunt in a while, you can''t behave


    in that cold way, and my aunt may not like you..."


    "Doesn''t like me?"


    Patrick stopped walking, and his voice grew colder.


    Christina smiled andforted her man. "It''s okay. When I married Cory, my aunt didn''t like him either.


    She epted it gradually. In fact, the main reason was that she felt rich men were unreliable..."


    "Patrick, you stay here. I''ll go in and find out..."


    After that, Christina left, leaving him alone.


    Patrick''s face darkened and stared at her turning left and into a ward.


    "Betty is not here..."


    Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the other side of the corridor. Patrick heard with a slight frown and


    turned to find out. That man strode towards him with aplicated expression on his face.


    "Betty went out with a man this morning. She''s not in the ward."


    Cory stood a meter away from him and repeated his cold words.

    The two men looked at each other, and both were in an indifferent manner.


    "Yesterday it''s dragon boat festival, so today I brought some things to greet Betty and see if there''s


    anything I can do to help..."


    Cory was the first to speak. He was dressed in a ck suit and stood upright. He looked very strict and


    spoke more calmly.


    "However, I realized that Betty did not require my help." His words paused, his eyes gazing at Patrick.


    "With the care of your family, she surely doesn''t need me." Cory''s tone was a little self-deprecating.


    But looking at Patrick, his eyes became more and moreplicated, as well as confused.


    "You''ve been looking for Betty''s substitutable heart since six years ago?" Cory couldn''t help but ask.


    Patrick didn''t answer. He raised his eyebrows and looked at his cousin. He felt that Cory had changed


    a lot since the car ident.


    However, he was still not interested in talking to him, so he stepped forward and thought of taking


    Christina home from the ward.


    Cory stepped forward and stopped him. "Christina is so devoted to you now. She''s very grateful for


    what you did in the past. She must love you very much..."


    "What are you trying to say?"


    Patrick''s face darkened when he heard the words.


    Cory''s lips lifted to sneer. "I know I can''tpete with you. And I also know you went to be that


    ridiculous teaching assistant for her, and you even took a bullet for her. But Patrick, why did Christina


    unluckily met a gangster during her graduation trip? Was it for her or for you? You know it very well!"
