Chapter 130


    Saturday came and Patricia was still in bed when she received Selina’s phone call.


    “Patricia, don’t forget that we’ll be meeting in front of the lobby of Serene Hot Springs at 12.00PM.”


    To Patricia’s recollection, Selina had always been a conscientious person and it showed even till


    this day.


    As such, Patricia was impressed and reckoned that Selina definitely had the inborn personality of a


    leader.


    “Sure, Selina.”


    After Patricia hung up the phone, she heaved a sigh of distress. She did not intend to join the


    gathering at first, but it seemed that she had no choice now.


    In the end, she got out of bed and chose a simple yet non-revealing swimsuit. Subsequently, she


    changed into a set of ck activewear. She walked out of the house with a baseball cap on her


    head and covered herself with her hoodie.


    That way, she would look carefree and energetic. Meanwhile, the three kids trailed after her and


    Sylvie sighed. “Tricia, what’s a high school gathering? I wanna go too!”


    Patricia ced her bag into her car’s front seat and looked at Sylvie’s unruly hair. Dressed in a


    yellow ducky pajamas, she looked extremely adorable by just standing there.


    “Well, like the ssmates you have right now, you guys will be gathering together after many years


    when you all be grown-ups.”


    Sylvie nodded. “Oh. Then, that means little Frannie would be a grown-up Frannie and little


    me would be a grown-up Sylvie. It’s a meet-up when we grow up.”


    Patricia smiled and stroked Sylvie’s little face. “Yes, that’s how it is.”


    However, Scott, on the other hand, remained apprehensive. “You don’t know how to swim. Don’t


    forget to bring a float with you when you enter a deeper pool.”


    Sten lifted his brows. “Show us your swimsuit. You’re not allowed to go in anything too


    revealing.”


    Shocked, Patricia thought to herself, Don’t the boys trust me? In the end, she shrugged resignedly.


    “I’ll be fine. I’ll be careful. I’ve chosen a very old-fashioned swimsuit.”


    At this point, Patricia could picture the scene when Sylvie was old enough to date. With the boys


    keeping guard, it would be quite safe to say that Sylvie was not going to get a boyfriend in her


    lifetime as they would all be scared off by her brothers.


    Patricia hurriedly ushered the triplets to head back into the house. “Stay home like good kids and


    you’ve got training ss this afternoon. Josephine will send you there.”


    Atst, she drove her car in the direction of Serene Hot Springs. It was located in a little district by


    the outskirts of town and there were tons of hot springs around.


    She had just gotten onto the highway when her phone rang. She answered, “Hello?”


    She did not pay notice to the caller ID as she had Bluetooth earphones on to avoid breaking the


    “Patricia, don’t forget that you still owe me one hundred and neen thousand. It’s the afternoon,


    so why aren’t you here to cook for me?”


    Having assumed that she was allowed a break, she was surprised to hear from Isaac as he had


    not asked for her for the past weekends.


    Frustrated, she thought, If only I knew to use him as an excuse, then I wouldn’t have to attend the


    gathering.


    “President Arnold, I’m sorry, but I have a ss gathering today. So, can I take the day off?”


    She was already on the highway, so it was not realistic to turn back by now. Besides, Selina had


    been persistent, thus it would be ugly to turn down her invite at this time.

    Seeing that she was the only one absent for the past gatherings, her ex-ssmates had all been


    excited to meet her again.


    On the other end, Isaac frowned slightly. “ss gathering? I thought that you never went to


    school?” He recalled her mentioning that before.


    Hearing that, Patricia cursed in her mind. You’re the one who never went to school, you imbecile!


    “President Arnold, I attended high school before. Haha. So, a ss gathering makes sense now,


    right?”


    “Where is it held?”


    At her boiling point, she was tempted to yell at him. Why does he have to know everything about


    me??? “President Arnold, this is my personal matter. Can I keep this to myself?”


    She was seconds away from hanging up the phone. He’s such an annoying man! I’m so triggered!


    “Sure. Then, perhaps I should let Josephine be my personal secretary. Have fun at the gathering


    with your ssmates!”
