Chapter 23


    Patricia shook her head as she replied, “No, we didn’t fight.”


    She had never brought up her family before, and Zachary only found out that she was the Young Lady


    of the Aniston Family when he helped her to register. Although she had this status, she was forced to


    live outside alone and give birth without support from her family.


    He thought she was rather pitiful, and despite his curiosity, he felt that she must have moved out


    because she didn’t get along with her family.


    Theypleted the registration with the help of his friend, and the Aniston Family was unaware of it.


    “Tricia, I’m always here for you. As long as you need help, you can just look for me.”


    As long as she turned around, he would be waiting at the same spot for her forever.


    Patricia smiled. “I’m fine, really. I just caught a cold a few days ago and have not fully recovered yet.


    Don’t worry.”


    Only then did he stop asking and drove her back to Snowke Lane, where he stayed for dinner. By the


    time he left, it was almost dark outside, and Patricia’s whole family saw him off at the door.


    Sylvie waved enthusiastically and said, “Bye, Mr. Zach!”


    Scott and Sten bid him goodbye as well. “Mr. Zach, be careful when you’re driving.”


    The fact that everyone in this house was very friendly was why Zachary likeding to Patricia’s


    house. Moreover, their smiles were very clean and warm, and he thought this ce was a purend


    with a beauty that was different from the world!


    After the car had driven away, the whole family happily walked back into the house, and Patricia asked


    the boys, “Both of you still have sses in the evening. So, pack your things quickly and head over.”


    At the same time, Sylvie had piano lessons, and Patricia wanted to send her there personally so she


    could keep an eye on her during ss. Yet, her head started to pound at the thought of the 60,000


    course fees; she had to find a job tomorrow.

    After she had changed to head out, she put the scarf on Sylvie properly. “Honey, take your lesson


    seriously today, and don’t be naughty again.”


    This was a course Sylvie had picked by herself, but after attending a few lessons, she started


    bing mischievous in her sses and did not take her lessons as seriously as she did.


    Sylvie nodded. “Alright, I got it.” Then, she fixed her gaze on Patricia. “Tricia, did the Mr. Handsome


    who took care of you ask you out for dinner or movies recently?”


    This was always how it went on TV—the male lead would ask the female lead out after taking care of


    her when she was sick, and they would get married soon after they started dating.


    Just hearing Isaac’s name frustrated Patricia, and when she recalled that she owed him 100,000 out of


    the blue, she felt really down on her luck. In the future, even if she were dying of illness, she wouldn’t


    want him to take care of her anymore.


    That’s a sky-high care fee, she thought. It will be amazing if I have this earning power.


    Right at this moment, her phone started to ring, and it was Sylvie who passed her phone to her. “Tricia,


    here’s your phone. Maybe Mr. Handsome is asking you out!”


    While Patricia wore her scarf, she wondered, He’s drinking at his father-inw’s ce now. So why will


    he look for me?


    Nevertheless, when she took the phone from her daughter, she was so shocked that she almost tossed


    it on the floor because it was a call from Isaac.


    “Pick it up quickly!” Sylvie urged.


    As he was the lender in their rtionship, that made him the master, and she could only pick up the


    call. “Hello.”


    Her voice was very indifferent, sounding even more aloof than when dealing with strangers.


    “Patricia Aniston, be at Estre Vi in half an hour. Otherwise, the interest will double,” he said and


    hung up, leaving Patricia with a frown as she wrinkled her face.


    Why is there an interest now? she wondered, wholly regretting her decision to sign the IOU.


    When Sylvie heard that a certain woman’s phone had gone silent, she bounced happily. “Yeah! It’s


    really Mr. Handsome calling to ask you out! Go and do your makeup quickly and make yourself look


    pretty. I’m going for my lesson now, and I’ll be a good girl.”


    Patricia was a little nervous when she watched as Sylvie went downstairs in delight. “Sylvie Aniston,


    ask Mrs. Zimmers to stay with you for the lesson. Do you hear me?”


    “I got it. Remember to throw yourself at Mr. Handsome and give me some siblings!”
