My Babies, My Love

Chapter 22

Patricia took a seat next to Hendrick, and it really didn’t cross her mind that the guest he meant

was Isaac.

In fact, when she met Mr. Wallace, she wasn’t paying attention to what he was saying. Instead, her

mind was in a daze at that time, thinking about Hendrick and the Aniston Family.

Adeline went to greet him. “Isaac, let’s sit here.”

She reached out as she wanted to hold his hand, but he dodged her. Embarrassment flashed over

her face, and it suddenly struck her that their marriage wasn’t real.

As he had no feelings for her, she had to put in more effort to make it work.

Back to his seat, Isaac asked Hendrick with a smile,

“Old Mr. Aniston, may I ask who this lady is?”

Then, he looked at Patricia, who knitted her brows for a second, thinking, Why is this guy asking

this question?

Hendrick was about to answer when Adeline cut him off. “Her name is Patricia Aniston, and she’s

the daughter of one of our servants.”

When she finished, her eyes shifted to Hendrick as though hinting at him that it would be better not

to let others know that Patricia was from the Aniston Family after the humiliating thing she had

done.

Hendrick flinched. As someone who cared a lot about his reputation, his silence meant that he

agreed with Adeline’s words.

As for Patricia, the light in her eyes dimmed when she saw her grandfather’s actions. She

shouldn’t have returned, to begin with, and since she had already met her grandfather, it was

about time for her to leave now.

Hence, she got to her feet. “Grandpa, enjoy yourselves. I’ll take my leave now, but I’ll visit you

again when I’m free.”

It made her furious to be called the daughter of a servant, but since Hendrick had given his silent

consent to this saying, what else could she say to that?

Ever since she was young, she felt unjustified for her mother for marrying a man like that—driving

her away after having an affair and allowing his daughter to call his ex-wife a servant.

At that moment, her mood had hit rock bottom.

Meanwhile, Isaac thought that Patricia was a Young Lady of the Aniston Family, but when he heard

Adeline say she was a servant’s daughter, he didn’t find this saying odd.

Why would a Young Lady of the Aniston Family live at Snowflake Lane and can’t even afford rent?

he thought.

…

After leaving the Aniston Residence, Patricia held the wall and closed her eyes to calm herself.

Earlier, she really wanted to turn back, break all the celebrative things in the living room, point a

finger at Adeline’s nose, and shout it out loud that she was the real bastard before pointing at

Gwen and telling her that a homewrecker like her wasn’t even fit to carry shoes for her mother.

She really had a powerful urge to do that, but she couldn’t.

Just then, a Mercedes stopped at the door, and Zachary hopped out to hold her steady.

“Tricia, why did you come here?”

He wouldn’t have known that she had come here if he hadn’t asked Josephine where Patricia was

when he couldn’t find her.

When she heard his voice, she lifted her head and forced a smile. “I’m here to visit my grandfather,

but I feel dizzy all of a sudden.”

In truth, she wasn’t dizzy but utterly agitated due to righteous fury.

Zachary helped her into the car and put on the seatbelt for her before getting into the driver’s seat.

“I’ll send you to the hospital.”

When he noticed how unwell she looked, he immediately offered to send her for a checkup at the

hospital to have peace of mind.

Unfortunately, she turned him down after taking in a deep breath, “It’s alright, just drop me home.”

As she wound down the window, she wanted to feel the cool breeze against her cheeks to regain

her composure. Her hate was for the family of three in the Aniston Family, not including Hendrick.

That was the reason why she couldn’t make a scene or start a fight on an occasion like this today

—she couldn’t embarrass Hendrick, who was in bad health.

Without a doubt, she would have her revenge and have Gwen and Adeline pay an equal price.

From time to time, Zachary would turn to look at her while he was driving. “Did you have a fight

with your family?” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Every time he saw her over the past few years, she was always wearing a smile, and today was

the first time he saw her so sad.

At the same time, Isaac came out after her because he wanted to send her home, but he saw her

getting into Zachary’s car instead. He scratched his chin, and darkness flickered in his eyes.

That girl seems very poor and ordinary, but she could get into the Aniston Residence and even

have the Young Master of the Selwyn Family to pick her up personally, he thought.

His heart felt inexplicably jealous when he watched her get into another person’s car.
