Chapter 108
In the contract, it was clearly stated that neither of the parties were allowed to leak the truth about their sham marriage.
Regardless how much Isaac wanted to come clean to Patricia, he could only hope that she would believe him.
She turned around and looked at him. “Your grandfather probably likes Adeline a lot, right?”
This was because she had heard that it was his grandfather who wanted him to marry Adeline.
Nodding, Isaac did not understand his grandfather’s intentions either since the two families were merely acquaintances.
It might be that the older generation knew each other.
The two did not speak after that as they went back to Estrella Villa.
Then, Patricia went to cook up dessert while Isaac went upstairs to shower before changing into a bathrobe.
Sitting on the sofa, he switched on the television yet he was not watching it.
Instead, he would look at the kitchen from time to time. Finally, he decided to stand up and walked toward the kitchen.
Standing in front of the counter, Patricia was making chocolate mousse dessert as it would be nice to have something sweet before going to sleep.
In actuality, she did not know how to do all this as she only learned it from Josephine recently.
After all, she was still very grateful to Isaac for providing a job like this that allowed her to raise her kids without the need to work on multiple jobs.
Now, I don’t have to rush around all day long and I can even participate in a birthday dinner like this. On top of that, I got to enjoy the night view too.
It had been years since she admired the view. She used to be so busy that she did not even have time to stop and look at the sky.
At this moment, Isaac approached her from behind and hugged her while touching her face with his.
Shocked, Patricia wanted to escape from his embrace.
He hugged her tightly. “Will you teach me how to make this?”
Needless to say, the man did not really want to learn it as he merely wanted to get closer to her; it felt quite nice to hug her while she was baking.
“President Arnold, could you let go of me? I’m finding it quite hard to stir.”
Even though she did not need to stir anything, she was just finding a random excuse.
Noticing that her voice was trembling, he smiled and let go of her.
“Are you afraid of me?” As he stood beside her, he looked at her longingly.
Patricia lowered the heat and shook her head.
“I’m not. It’s just that the people I hate the most are homewreckers. I don’t wish to become who I hate, so please don’t make it hard on me, President Arnold.”
Although she could easily snatch Isaac from Adeline to make her feel the pain her mother went through back then, she could not do it. I’m still human, unlike those two b*stards.
Isaac knew what she was getting as he could not declare the true relationship he and Adeline had. That was why Patricia mind the position she was in.
“Are you done yet?” All of a sudden, his tone became cold. Yet, Patricia found herself liking this side of him more.
“I’m just about done. Where do you want to have it?”
He pointed toward the living room. “Living room, you and me.”
What a forceful tone. Originally, she thought that she could leave after making the dessert since she had taken a look at the rooms and found that they were all tidy and clean.
With a solemn face, Isaac went to the living room and sent a message to ‘The Three Lonely Musketeers’ group chat on Messenger.
Isaac, nicknamed ‘The First Lonely Musketeer’ in the group, asked, ‘Hey, how do you woo a woman?’
Nikola, nicknamed ‘The Second Lonely Musketeer’ replied, ‘Wow, this group still exists?’
After he sent the text, he lightly nudged Percy who was beside him, motioning that Isaac was looking for help.
Hence, Percy, ‘The Third Lonely Musketeer’ stated, ‘You’ve come to the right person. Here, let me teach you the ways of the world.’
In truth, Percy was indeed very experienced at dating. Even though he was in the army, he still managed to date a few and even have some of them visit him at camp.
