Patrick smoothly wrapped his arms around her waist to prevent her from falling.
His eyes were incredibly deep, and a flicker of confusion crossed them as he looked at her.
Juliette saw he didn’t answer and asked again, “Maybe it’s not love, just possessiveness at work?”
Speaking of which, Juliette chuckled to herself.
She was generous. Her skin was so smooth that it seemed to glow. When she smiled, it was as if the whole room lit up.
Although her smile didn’t reach her eyes, it was still incredibly charming.

“However, I’m a woman who’s been abandoned. What possessiveness could you possibly have for me? No one else is vying for me. Even if you did have a possessive side, it would be hard to trigger, wouldn’t it?”
Patrick’s hands suddenly tightened, as if trying to snap Juliette’s slender waist.
He lowered his head, approaching Juliette’s face.
“Remember, you weren’t abandoned. You abandoned the bad days and the bad people.”
He wouldn’t allow Juliette to describe herself like that anymore. It was infuriating and heartbreaking.
“No one is rushing to get you not because you are not good enough or not worth it. It’s because they know they’re not good enough for you.”
Patrick touched her forehead.
He held her tighter.
Their bodies were pressed seamlessly together.
“To be honest, I’m very possessive. If another man looks at you, I want to gouge his eyes out.”
He spoke with utmost seriousness.
There was a hint of coldness in his tone, which Juliette keenly perceived.
So much so that his words fell on Juliette’s ears with a very high degree of credibility.
But Juliette was surprised because Patrick had always been gentle, cold, and aloof in her cognition.
The kind of intense human emotion…didn’t seem to belong to him.
“After my mother died, I was indifferent to everyone and everything. I didn’t want to stay in the Clarke family anymore, so l had to go out and make money to support myself and my grandmother. Then I entered the entertainment industry.
“I didn’t start to have mood swings until Louis came along. I always thought I wouldn’t have big mood swings until you showed up.
“I may not know what love is, but if crazy possessiveness is love, I should love you.
“If I think you’re beautiful, incredibly beautiful all the time, and wanting to keep you in my pocket is love, I should love you,

“If I can’t sleep holding you at night, I won’t be able to sleep, I’ll be manic. If that’s love, I should love you, too.”
Juliette saw her reflection in Patrick’s deep eyes.
She stood on tiptoe, captured Patrick’s lips, and kissed him fiercely as if this was the only way to express her emotions.
For Patrick and Juliette, who had been hurt, the kind of affection was deep enough.

Louis had been left in the room to reflect for long enough.
At first, he sincerely reflected and admitted his mistake.
However, as time passed, his emotions gradually faded away. He wanted to go out and play. He wanted to find his mommy.
At first, he was just testing the waters, but gradually he became more and more daring. Even Keegan couldn’t keep him in
check.
Louis finally managed to slip out of his small room.
As soon as he went out, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
He saw his mommy stepping on his daddy’s feet, but Daddy didn’t feel any pain or weight. Instead, he was worried Mommy would fall, so he held her tightly.
Most importantly, they were kissing. Outside the big window, there was a deep blue sky and the sound of waves chasing. Sound, light, scenery, and a sweet couple, all pieced together to form a wonderful picture.
Louis’s eyes went from shock to ecstasy. He covered his mouth, unable to help but laugh. ‘Dad and Mommy are so sweet. I will always love them, thought Louis.
Upon hearing the noise, Juliette quickly separated from Patrick. Caught off guard, Patrick still chased after her and pecked her on the corner of her mouth.
The way he looked at Juliette was still full of tenderness.
However, when he saw Louis, his eyes turned cold. Then, when he looked at Keegan behind Louis, there was a hint of blame in his eyes.
Keegan was hopeless and thought, ‘A four–year–old child is sometimes like a stubborn bull, difficult to guard.
‘Especially since he is the boss’s child. I can’t scold or correct him. I can’t even order him not to go
out.‘
“Go and prepare lunch. My wife is hungry,” said Patrick.
Keegan immediately took the order and left.
Ten minutes later, the meal was ready, and Keegan came over to invite them to dinner.
Patrick held Juliette’s hand, and Juliette held Louis’s hand. The sunlight fell on the deck of the ship as if the whole world was bright.

Chapter 158
After lunch, Patrick took Juliette and Louis to see Dorothy.
11
Dorothy had been checked by the Clarke family’s private doctor. She had just woken up from a nap, and her spirit was much better.
Upon seeing Dorothy, Juliette thought of the first time she met her in the hospital.
At that time, Patrick was in a bad situation, and Madeline came to make trouble, so her attitude was bad. She even made Dorothy wait at the door for a long time.
Thinking of that, Juliette suddenly felt awkward.
“Patrick finally brought you and Louis back to see me,” Dorothy said happily. “From now on, you and Patrick will take Louis home to live.”
Juliette smiled politely and said, “Hello, Dorothy. It’s up to Patrick to decide whether to come back to the Clarke family home or not.”
“Okay, okay. You can discuss it yourself. I have been preparing a meeting gift for you since I heard you and Patrick got married. Now, I finally have the opportunity.”
Dorothy asked the maid to bring out the gift.
The gift was in an exquisite box. When the box was opened, there was a sense of splendor.
There were earrings, brooches, and bracelets from the 20th century, all treasures from decades ago. They were rare and expensive.
“Thank you for your gifts, Dorothy. They are all precious. I came in a hurry and didn’t prepare any gifts for you.” Juliette said.
“As long as you, Patrick, and Louis come to see me often, I will be satisfied.” said Dorothy.
Dorothy motioned for the maid to hand over the gifts to Keegan and asked them to take the gifts with them when they left.
Those gifts made Patrick frown slightly, and a trace of displeasure flashed across his eyes. However, it was not obvious, so no one noticed.
“Grandma, you are not feeling well and need to rest, so we won’t bother you anymore.” Then Patrick told Louis, “Say goodbye to your great–grandmother.”
Dorothy was indeed tired. She accomplished a lot of things that mattered to her today. She was satisfied and wanted to have a good rest.
Louis suddenly asked, “Great–grandma, do you like my mommy, too?”
Dorothy was slightly taken aback, then smiled kindly. “Of course.”
“Great–grandma, you have a good rest. Dad and I will protect Mommy well and not let her suffer any harm in the Clarke family. Mommy’s happiness is the happiness of our whole family, and Mommy’s unhappiness is the unhappiness of our whole family.”
Then Louis stepped forward and took Mommy’s hand, bid farewell to Great–Grandma earnestly. He left with his mother. Dorothy watched the family of three leave. Juliette’s hands were held by her son and her husband.

Dorothy suddenly thought of two popular words recently: Group Favorite,
“Did what Louis just said have any deeper meaning?” Dorothy asked the maid beside her.
