    Chapter 298


    Isaac sat up, gently stroked his face with his hands, and turned his attention to the two boys. "I love


    your mommy a lot. Please believe me for once. I promise that I will never let her be sad."


    Scott and Sten exchanged nces with their mother before Scott remarked in a cold tone, "To earn


    our trust, you must marry her."


    When the subject of marriage was brought up, Isaac''s eyes moved subtly. He intended to conceal their


    rtionship from Philip, who wasn''t in good health. Furthermore, he was concerned that Philip might


    be enraged and then… Although he shuddered at the thought of the worst-case scenario, he


    wouldn''t allow anything to happen to his grandpa.


    When the boys saw how Isaac dithered, they snickered. "If you can''t marry her, don''t try to flirt with her.


    You can''t afford to mess with her feelings."


    Their mother was far too benevolent and naive. How could she not be wary of matters involving men


    and women?


    Seeing their reaction, Patricia was surprised and cast a sidelong nce at Isaac to see if he had ever


    considered proposing to her. Her heart sank a little, but she knew that with his social standing, he


    should marry someone more suitable for him than a single mother. The very thought of it made her feel


    inadequate, and she had an overwhelming urge to withdraw into a cocoon.


    At that moment, Scott reminded her. "It''s 8.15AM now. You''re going to bete for work."


    When she heard that, Patricia turned around, gingerly put on her slippers, and headed for the


    bathroom.

    Meanwhile, Sylvie and Isaac engaged in conversation. "Mr. Arnold, could you please move in soon?


    Tricia will get scared if she sleeps alone. I will have no reason to worry if you stay with her."


    He was amused by her words and reached out to pet her head. "Okay! I think she needspany too."


    Sylvie was a caring daughter whom he adored. After his marriage to Patricia, her three children would


    be his, and he would be overjoyed to have a cute little girl like her in the family.


    With a firm grip on her hand, Sten urged, "Come on, Sylvie. Let''s go downstairs for breakfast!"


    On the contrary, she was quite hungry and said, "OK! Mr. Arnold, change your clothes and join us for


    breakfast!"


    Conversely, Scott red at Isaac and cautioned, "Isaac, please leave. You are prohibited from entering


    our house again." His gaze was threatening and provoking, as if he would be killed if he ever set foot in


    their home again.


    Isaac furrowed his brow, amazed that a young boy in such a small frame could match or even surpass


    his aura. With him by her side, Patricia was adequately protected.


    With a chuckle, Isaac replied, "Scott, in this lifetime, I will only love Patricia, and that won''t ever change.


    It''s only a matter of time before we get married, and I''m up for any challenges you can throw my way."


    His words came from the depths of his heart, and he meant every word of his promise to throw her a


    spectacr wedding even though he couldn''t do it any time soon.


    Without saying a word, Scott rolled his eyes before he turned around and walked away.


    Isaac knew that this kid wasn''t foolish. If Patricia could marry someone she liked, they would not object.


    They didn''t trust him after he lied to them in the past, so they avoided him out of fear that their mother


    would be bullied by him.


    …


    Meanwhile, at the Aniston Residence, Adeline had just woken up. She was dressed in silk pajamas and


    appeared rxed as shebed her hair, got out of bed, and made her way to Gwen''s room.


    Gwen was seated in front of her dressing table when she noticed her daughter, and she turned around.


    "Honey, are you awake? Did you have a good timest night?"


    Adeline yawned, and even though it was past 10.00AM, she was still very sleepy. However, when she


    recalled what had urred the previous evening, she became furious and hoped Patricia would be


    killed.


    "Mom, don''t even mention it. I was so ashamedst night. My friends will no longer ask me out."


    Children from wealthy families hadplicated rtions. Gwen was also ostracized by people from


    her circle recently due to Isaac calling off the wedding. Even the members of the Aniston Family started


    giving her the cold shoulder.


    "I''m going to meet Uncle Georgeter. He knows an assassin, and as long as we hire him, everything


    will be fine again."
