Chapter 79
The fluorescent lights in the hallway illuminated Patrick’s skin.

His beautiful eyes were deep and unreadable, but his grip was strong as if he could knock Juliette over at any moment.
Juliette’s eyes met Patrick’s.
After about ten seconds, Patrick’s lips parted slightly. “Are you having fun?”
He was devoid of emotion, but Juliette knew that Patrick was angry.
She pursed her lips and said nothing.
Patrick took a disinfectant wipe from his pocket, lifted her hand, and wiped her palm and fingers.
After wiping each finger clean, Patrick tossed the disinfectant wipe to the side. It drew a graceful arc in the air before landing in the trash can.
Patrick didn’t say a word before turning around to leave.
Juliette glanced at Stuart, whose back was still plastered against the wall, then followed.
Stepping out of the hospital doors, they discovered it was already evening. The sky darkened quickly at the end of November.

In the dim yellow light, they could only make out the outlines of objects.
The cold evening wind sobered Juliette considerably.
Then it dawned on her that Patrick had clearly witnessed her pressing Stuart for answers. He had seen the whole thing and
was angry.
Up ahead, Patrick had already opened the door to his black Bentley while gesturing for her to get in.
Juliette paused before looking at him. “I drove here myself,” she said, “If I go with you, my car will have to stay here. I’ll have to come back for it, which is a waste of time.”
“So?”
“So, you drive your car back, I drive my car back, and we meet at home.” Juliette boldly voiced her thoughts.
Juliette didn’t know if it was her imagination.
She thought she saw a hint of a smile flash across Patrick’s lips, but it was a cold smile.
“Get in. I’ll get you a driver for your car.” Patrick said.
His tone left no room for negotiation.
In the afternoon, he saw the news of Finn sending flowers, fruits, and limited edition bags to Juliette.
He knew rationally that this was Finn’s trick, but emotions could not fully comply with rational analysis.
He felt a strong sense of jealousy.

Finn had Juliette’s love, possessed all of Juliette’s heart and soul, and even made Juliette want to entrust her life to him.
The past couldn’t be changed.
This was not Juliette’s fault.
It was the right choice for her to part ways with Finn.
However, at that moment, Patrick still felt a super strong possessiveness.
He wanted to hold Juliette in his arms and make her lose her mind before she admit that she was wholeheartedly his.
This kind of thought always popped up recently.
Therefore, Patrick began to hate the blood of the Clarke family flowing in his body, dirty.
“You think I’m going to hurt you, so you want to sit apart from me?” Patrick asked, his thick eyebrows slightly furrowed.
On his handsome, cold, white face, there was a trace of grievance.
Juliette felt as if she had been hit by a blow.
She felt bad that she actually made such a handsome man feel wronged.
She was the one who did the wrong thing. She was the one who made Patrick angry, and now she even made him feel wronged.
Juliette thought to herself, ‘What did I do to deserve this?‘
“No, why would you think that?” Juliette trotted over, bent down, and got into the car.
“I won’t allow you to think that!” she said.
Her voice was bossy and petulant as her eyes darted towards him.
However, because she was multitasking, and because she was getting into the car too quickly, she missed her footing and her heel scraped against the side of the car.
Her body tilted, and she fell into Patrick’s arms. At the same time, her heel scraped a mark on the car’s body, making a subtle but piercing sound.
Juliette froze and thought, ‘This is Patrick’s most frequently driven car, and the interior is spotless.
“There are many cars in the garage, and the fact that he often drives this one shows that it is his favorite.‘
After offending and hurting Patrick, she had also ruined his beloved car.
“Did you twist your ankle?” Patrick held her slender waist. He had always known that her waist was slender, but he couldn’t help but feel aroused when he actually touched it.
It felt so soft and delicate, as if it would break with a little force.
He couldn’t get over how beautiful she was.
However, Patrick still remembered to pay attention to her foot. He lifted her up and placed her on a chair. His long, bony fingers lifted her foot, and he took off her high heels.

Her skin was delicate and smooth. Her ankles were beautifully shaped.
He examined it carefully, but found no bruises or swelling.
“I didn’t sprain it.” Juliette wanted to pull her foot back, but his fingertips lingered on her skin, sending a tingling sensation through her like an electric shock.
The action was too seductive.
Patrick didn’t seem to be aware of the influence of his actions.
He asked, “How could you not have sprained it? That fall looked pretty bad.”
Juliette’s cheeks slowly flushed crimson. She couldn’t help but feel that Patrick was asking the question on purpose, but his expression was deadly serious.
The lighting was just right.
Even the evening breeze was just right.
Patrick was too handsome. The serious look on his face made him look even sexier and more seductive than usual
“I fell into your arms just now. How could something happen?” Juliette said grumpily, but she still sounded like she was throwing a tantrum.
She felt that Patrick was deliberately waiting for her to say this.
If her ankle hadn’t been held by him all the time, she wouldn’t have given up.
“Well…” The corners of Patrick’s mouth seemed to curl up into a smile.
He finally put her shoes on for her, put her feet away, pulled the seat belt and fastened it for her, and then returned to the driver’s seat.
He stepped on the accelerator and drove the car out.
The silent look revealed an unspoken nobility.
Juliette couldn’t help looking at his profile, but she couldn’t guess his mood at the moment.
“My shoe scratched your car.” Juliette still wanted to talk to him about it.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, Patrick didn’t speak.
She asked again, “This is your beloved car, right? Do you want me to send it for a respray?”
“Is this important?” Patrick finally spoke. “Don’t you think you should be talking to me about something else?”
His tone was somewhat low and displeased.
“Something else…” Juliette looked at the neon lights in the distance, her tongue sweeping over her palate as she was trying to figure out how to gloss over this topic.
“Don’t you think you did something wrong?” Patrick’s voice came again.
Juliette‘ was very well–behaved. “Well, I was wrong.”

“Shouldn’t you make it up to me?”
“I should.”

Juliette thought for a moment and asked, “How do you want me to make it up to you? Do you want me to give you money? Then send me your bank account number.”
Patrick almost laughed in anger, “I’ll tell you when we get home.”
“Okay.”
Juliette thought he would tell her his bank account number when he got home.
However, Patrick took her back to his room.
As soon as he entered the door, he pinned her against the door and kissed her forcefully.
He bit her lip and said in a hoarse and seductive voice, “This is the compensation I want.” After saying that, he gave her a big, bright hickey on her collarbone.
