She then led Patrick downstairs.
She said, "Today's a busy day for me. Could you stay at hand spend twith Dalton?" Patrick's face fell slightly as he replied, "I'd rather stay with you." Brenna was a bit puzzled. Could it be that Dalton had bullied Patrick? Maybe that was why Patrick didn't want to stay hwith Dalton.
"Alright, you can cwith me," Brenna said.
After all, Patrick wasn't familiar with Dalton. The fact that he had obediently slept in the sroom with Dalton last night was already quite considerate of him.

"I'm Brenna Harper, here to give a lecture today. You probably have already been informed of this," Brenna said. The receptionist glanced at Patrick, who looked quite fashionable, dressed entirely in black, complete with a backpack, sunglasses, and neatly styled hair. He exuded a cool confidence.
She smiled at him and said, "Hello there. You are pretty handsome." Patrick grinned and charmingly winked at the receptionist. "Hello, Miss. You're so beautiful." The receptionist said, "Thank you." Brenna felt somewhat resigned, pondering where Patrick had picked up such behavior. It seemed that any the encountered an attractive woman, he would eagerly introduce himself. Just yesterday, while they had been out, he had even added two young girls on WhatsApp.
The receptionist said warmly, "Miss Harper, the lecture is on the thirty-third floor. Is this your son? He's quite the charmer!" Before Brenna could correct her, a male receptionist interjected, "What are you saying? Miss Harper is our chairman's daughter, and she's not married." The female receptionist quickly responded, "I'm sorry, Miss Harper. I was unaware of that." Brenna just nodded, not particularly bothered by her words earlier.
She then led Patrick towards the elevator.
On the way, Patrick curiously asked Brenna, "Mommy, does the Harper Group belong to your family?" Brenna glanced around and noticed the receptionists staring oddly at them. She calmly said to Patrick, "You need to callBrenna when we are outside. You can only callMommy when we are alone." She playfully tapped his nose. "Got it?"
