Chapter 1333 That Was Not Really Love (Part Three)
"I can only say that you are thinking too much. Patricia, keep your hands off me. If possible, stay away
from me. Don''t expect that you will get anything from this because I won''t give you anything. If you
were not Leena''s friend, I won''t waste time even talking to you." The words that gushed out from his
mouth were as cold as if they wereing from hell that had frozen over. Patricia felt a shiver down
her spine.
"Tom, am I really so despicable to you?" Patricia bit her lower lip. Even though he said such ruthless
words, she still kept her chin up, as proud as she had been all this time. She wouldn''t waste a tear or
give him the impression that she was easily defeated.
"You are not despicable, but what you do makes me feel sick." Tom didn''t know why he would have
such a feeling. The more she got close to him, the more he felt resistant, even to the extent of
exasperation.
"Haha! Okay, I hear you. Say no more Doctor Qin, and take care. I hope we never run into each other
again." Patrica looked up at the ceiling, trying to hold back her tears. Then she smiled, as if nothing had
happened. The bright smile on her face could make one think that she never seriously cared about
anything.
"Good. And I agree. I hope we never see each other again." After saying this, Tom was surprised that
he wasn''tpletely happy about this. He was supposed to be celebrating in his heart now that this
crazy annoying girl decided to leave him alone. Instead, he felt his heart get stung by something. He
fell into a despondent mood as if he lost something valuable.
Patricia watched him until he disappeared from sight. As soon as he turned the corner, tears streamed
down her face and messed up her makeup. She had alreadypromised her dignity in the hope that
he could see the vulnerability in her heart. But what she got in return was only ridicule and more hate.

Did he really have no feelings or even respect for her? She wondered.
If time stopped in this moment, could her heart stop bleeding as well? She was so devastated that she
couldn''t even breathe. She felt that her heart was broken into a million pieces.
"Miss Patricia, are you okay?" Seeing Patricia copse to the ground, Manager Cheng rushed out from
his office to see what was happening to her.
"Manager Cheng, I want to be alone in the office for a while, is it okay?" Patricia stood up and
staggered towards her mom''s office. She didn''t care how Manager Cheng would think of her.
"Of course. Can I get you anything? Do you want some water or coffee?" Manager Cheng followed her
and reached out his hands to support her, in case she stumbled and fell again. She seemed very weak.
"Thanks. I only want to be alone for now." Patricia pushed the office door open and threw herself onto
the sofa. While she held back all emotions in front of Manager Cheng, now that she was alone, she let
it all go, tears rushing out like a flood, making the pain take over her entire body. Tears blurred her
eyes, and the pain stabbed her fragile heart. This might be the only time in her life that she cried like
this. Even when she got injured in thepetition, she had never experienced this much pain. A
physical wound could heal quickly, but a broken heart would be almost impossible to piece together.
Manager Cheng was very worried about her but as she expressed her desire to be left alone, he let her
be. He quietly closed the door and stayed outside to keep watch in case she needed something,
hoping that she would rebound from it soon.
Tom raced back to the hospital. Feeling at a loss, he was absent-minded all afternoon. He always
found himself in a trance, gazing at something but thinking about something else.
"Rain, how about we have a drink tonight?" It was the first time that Tom asked anyone out to drink. He
needed to calm himself. After his encounter with Patricia, he had be troubled and restless.
"Have a drink?! Tom, are you alright? Did I hear correct? It seems like the sun came out from the west
today! Where is this urge to go drinking tonighting from?" Leaning back in the sofa, Rain teased in
azy tone. If his memory served him right, Tom had never taken the first move to invite anyone to
have a drink.
"Cut the crap. Just tell me if you''ll go or not!" Tom was impatient. He was just asking him to join him for
a drink, why was he such a bbermouth?
"Fine, fine, fine! Tell me. Where do you want to go? I''d love to go to drink with you." Rain stood up from
the sofa and walked to the window. Looking down at the busy street, he had no reason to refuse his
friend. He was alone anyway, and here came Tom with an offer for a fun night.
"You decide the ce. I''m not familiar with any ces of entertainment. You''re the expert at that." Tom
closed the report he had been reading the whole afternoon. Unlike Rain who was a business man and
had frequently been to nightclubs and other entertainment venues, Tom rarely went to such ces.
"What would be better than our old watering hole? We are already familiar with it and we know the
people there," Rain said casually. Since Edward and Duke had their own families, they seldom got
together like they did before.
"Okay, good idea. We''ll go to Sexy World and let''s get hammered." Tom seemed ready to go all out for
a binge. He smiled bitterly. It should have been a victory to have gotten rid of Patricia. But he didn''t
know why he felt at a loss. He felt anxious as if something was missing, and he didn''t know what.
"Really? Get hammered? Are you serious? I can''t believe that this remark came out from your mouth.
Come on, buddy, what happened to you? Were you beaten up by someone or did some girl turn you
down?" Rain teased. He knew Tom was not the kind of guy who would feel down because of woman.
He had never seen him attracted by any woman for that matter. Tom was just an unusual person, very
different from the others. He seemed to have no worldly desires. The only rtionship he had was with
hisb. Nothing else could captivate him.
