Chapter 254


    Chapter 254


    At the mention of his ex-lover, Liam smiled bitterly. "I''m too busy. No woman will fall in love with a busy


    man like me." What can I do? Women these days want their partners to go to them immediately with


    just a call.


    On the other hand, Liam had to attend to Isaac whenever thetter called, so he didn''t have time to


    keep his partnerpany if he had one. Back then, his girlfriend broke up with him because he


    couldn''t keep herpany when she was sick. At the thought of this, he gulped down his wine.


    Isaac arched his brow. "Alright. If you have a girlfriend in the future, I''ll give you more free time."


    Hearing that, Liam was astounded. "Please don''t fire me, President Arnold. I''ll work harder. I don''t need


    a girlfriend."


    Isaac picked up some food from the te. "I didn''t say I would fire you. I just think you needpany


    as well."


    At that instant, Liam felt that Isaac had changed. He seems to be a little morepassionate now.


    …


    When Patricia returned home, she opened the front door and saw two bodyguards standing in the yard.


    Noticing that Patricia had returned, Sylvie went over and whispered, "They''ve been standing there like


    two logs, Mommy."


    Patricia turned to look at the bodyguards at the door and reckoned that they indeed looked like two


    logs. Wait a minute. Does Sylvie know who they are?


    Ignoring the guards, she shuffled forward with the yarn in her hands as she had to get prepared and


    knit a sweater for Isaacter. When she was about to enter the living room, the bodyguards finally


    called out, "Miss Patricia!"


    Patricia turned to look at them. "Did my grandfather send you here?"


    One of the bodyguards replied, "Yes, Old Mr. Aniston sent us here to bring you and the kids to the


    Aniston Residence."


    With a frown, Patricia asked, "Does my grandfather want to see them?"


    Recalling that her grandfather was stern with her when he found out she was pregnant, she wasn''t


    willing to go over.

    Although she had previously promised that she would bring the kids to see him, she didn''t mean it. She


    would be worried if she did so. That was because she didn''t want her kids to be despised or mocked.


    They were not only her kids but also the best gifts she had ever had.


    "Yes, Miss Patricia."


    Patricia gazed at her kids. Her sons were in the living room, totally unperturbed. She wondered what


    they were doing with theputers. Anyway, she could never figure out what they did. They had told


    her before that they could earn some money by doing some coding. Since her sons loved doing it, she


    would support them unconditionally.


    She put down the yarn and eyed her kids. "Your great-grandpa would like to see you, darlings. Would


    you like to meet up with him?"


    The kids had never seen any of their mother''s rtives before, so they had no idea who their great-


    grandfather was.


    Because Hendrick had requested to see the kids, it was hard for Patricia to turn him down. After all, her


    grandfather used to treat her very well.


    Sylvie nodded repeatedly. "Sure thing!"


    The young girl didn''t even know what a great-grandfather was, but being an outgoing child, she


    enjoyed meeting new people. Scott and Sten nced at their mother and announced unanimously,


    "It''s up to you, Mommy."


    They would tag along if Patricia wanted them to see Hendrick. After giving it some thought, Patricia


    reckoned that they''d better meet up with Hendrick on this day, for such a meet-up would take ce


    sooner orter anyway.


    "Wait for us outside. We''ll get changed and go with you."


    The bodyguards replied at the same time, "Roger that."


    Seeing that those dull-looking men were gone, Sylvie turned to her mother. "They called you Miss


    Patricia, Mommy. Are you a wealthydy or something?"


    The kids had figured out that their mother must be from a prestigious background, for she was well-


    mannered and elegant. Even though she had never brought this up, they had a feeling that she used to


    live afortable life.


    Patricia replied with a smile, "I''m the oldest child in my family, so they call me Miss Patricia out of


    courtesy."


    She stroked Sylvie''s face. "Be a good girl and behave yourself when you see your great-grandfather."
