Chapter 193: Are You Sure She''s Candy?
This sudden kiss took Jane by surprise.
She stiffened, her mind momentarily nk.
After a few seconds, she finally reacted.
What was Patrick doing?!
They had already called off the engagement, and there was no
connection between her and Patrick anymore. Why did he have the
audacity to vite her like this?This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
With determination, Jane''s teeth fiercely bit down on Patrick''s lips.
Apanied by the metallic taste of blood, a sharp pain shot through
the lip, causing Patrick to instinctively release Jane.
Jane''s chest heaved violently, filled with shame and anger. She panted,
saying, "Patrick, that''s enough!"
Patrick''s face turned an iron blue, and the chilling aura he emitted
made people shiver.
The air seemed to freeze at that moment.
With furrowed brows, Patrick''s handsome face tensed, his eyes slightly
narrowed, staring intently at Jane.
Did she hate his touch so much?
Clearly, in the past, when they were together, she enjoyed him kissing
her like this.
He only spoke after what felt like an eternity, his face cold, his voice
deep, "Jane, are you really with Osborn?"
Jane furrowed her brows.
"Did you heartlessly break off the engagement because of Osborn?"
Seeing Jane silent, Patrick''s face grew colder.
Because of Osborn?
Heh, was Patrick ying the victim here?
Clearly, it was because of Candy!
Jane suddenly raised her eyes, meeting his icy gaze. "Patrick, please
don''t nder me and Osborn. Why I broke off the engagement, don''t
you understand it in your heart?"
“I don''t understand!" Patrick''s deep eyes were bottomless, anger rolling
within. “Tell me, why?"
Today, he wanted to hear the answer from Jane''s own mouth.
Jane sneered, "Since you pretend not to understand when you clearly
do, fine, I''ll make it clear for you."
Taking a deep breath, Jane stared into Patrick''s eyes, continuing, "A
long time ago, I told you that I have a cleanliness obsession with
rtionships. My future husband must love me wholeheartedly and
only have me in his heart.
And you, obviously, you''ve always loved Candy."
"So, you canceled the engagement because of Candy?" Patrick raised
an eyebrow, his mood suddenly improving.
Not because of Osborn, but because of Candy... Did this mean that
Jane still cared about him?
"Yes." Jane nodded.
Patrick''s gaze deepened, and he spoke in a low, deep voice, "So, if I
say that Candy and I are not as you imagine, and there''s nothing
between us, will youe back to me?"
"Do you think I''d believe that?" Jane''s lips curled with a hint of sarcasm.
Patrick stared deeply at her. "Why wouldn''t you believe it?"
"On the day of our engagement ceremony, on such an important day,
you disappeared without considering my feelings, and I couldn''t reach
you.
I thought something had happened to you, went crazy looking for you,
and what did I find?
You were with Candy.
Clearly, in your eyes, Candy is more important than me.
Or should I say, from beginning to end, the person you love is Candy.
Since that''s the case, this engagement, which shouldn''t have existed in
the first ce, has even less reason to continue.”
Patrick squinted his eyes. "I did not disregard your feelings. That day,
didn''t I send you a message, telling you I''d pick you upter?"
A message?
Jane was taken aback.
When did he send her a message?
"I haven''t seen any message,” Jane sarcastically remarked.
Patrick furrowed his brows. His phone had run out of battery that day,
and it was Candy who sent the message.
Why hadn''t Jane received it?
Where did things go wrong?
Seeing Patrick silent, Jane asked coldly, "Patrick, dare you say you
haven''t loved Candy for so many years? In your heart, the person
you''ve been thinking about isn''t Candy?"
"Jane, I don''t deny that I have a special feeling for Candy, but it''s not as
you imagine,” Patrick carefully exined. He didn''t know how to rify
things to Jane.
Indeed, Candy held a significant ce in his heart.
He once thought that the Candy he had been searching for was the
one he loved.
However, after meeting Jane, he was gradually attracted to her, and the
emotional bnce leaned toward Jane.
When he saw Candice again, he realized that he didn''t have the same
affectionate feeling for her. The person he wanted to spend his life with
was still Jane.
It''s just that Candy had saved him, and he wasn''t the type to forget a
debt of gratitude.
So, when Candy made various demands of him, he would agree
without hesitation.
Jane bit her lip, silent.
Her heart, however, stirred slightly.
How much of Patrick''s words could be believed?
“I''ve exined about Candy. Now, shouldn''t you exin what your
rtionship with Osborn is?" Patrick''s heart still felt tight when he
thought about what he had seen downstairs.
Jane, however, answered with a question, "Patrick, can you be sure
that Candice is Candy?"
"Of course," Patrick answered without hesitation.
"Why are you so sure?" Jane asked further.
Patrick''s gaze carried a hint of inquiry. "Jane, what are you
suspecting?"
Jane pursed her lips, about to speak, when suddenly Patrick''s phone
rang.
Patrick took out his phone from his pocket, looked down, and saw it
was a call from Candice.
Seeing the constant blinking of "Candy" on the screen, Jane''s face
darkened.
Patrick''s slender fingers pressed the answer button. "Candy?"
On the other end, Candice''s voice came in a panic, "Paddy, save me!
Hurry, save me!"
"Candy, what happened?" Patrick''s tone involuntarily carried a trace of
concern.
"Don''te over, ah... Paddy, help!" Candice''s voice on the phone
sounded tearful, as if she had encountered something terrifying.
"Candy? Candy? What happened?” Patrick anxiously inquired.
However, the call was abruptly disconnected.
Patrick called back, but no one answered.
"Jane, Candy might be in danger. I''ll go check." Patrick looked at Jane
with a serious expression.
Without waiting for Jane to respond, he walked straight to the door and
left inrge strides.
Watching Patrick hurriedly leave, Jane''s heart sank bit by bit.
Just now, he said his feelings for Candice weren''t as she imagined.
But as soon as he received Candice''s call, he rushed over like a
madman.
Did that look like having no feelings?
The fact was right in front of her-Candice was more important to Patrick
than she was.
