Chapter 699
At the furniture town.
"Here we are." Patrick got out of the car. He walked to the other side and opened the car door for the woman in
the front passenger seat.
"Thank you." When a beautiful foot in a red highheeled shoe stepped out, it drew all the passengers’ attention.
They wanted to see what kind of goddess could make such a handsand strong man accompany her.
When they saw the woman's face, they were all stunned. The woman and the man was indeed a prefect match!
Patrick was such a genteel macho and Sissi was elegant as a goddess. They were really a great match.
"Be careful." Patrick noticed that Sissi's heels were quite high so he reflexively reached out to hold her.
After Sissi stood firm, she looked at Patrick's slender fingers on her arm and said with a smile, "So nice to have
you here."
After Patrick retracted his hand, he replied in a lukewarm tone, "Save it."
Did she think that he was still a silly boy who would believe whatever she said?
When Sissi heard this, she explained hurriedly, "These are my heartfelt words! Please believe me. | have always
been sincere to you!"
Sincere?
Patrick could not hold back his anger. However, he remembered that he was here to accompany her in choosing
furniture. He suppressed his anger and led her into the furniture town.
On the way, Sissi observed Patrick's face carefully. If it was in the past...
The past? Why did she keep remembering the past?
There's a saying that there would be no harm if there was no comparison. When she compared the Patrick in the
past, he almost broke off relations with his parents in order to be with her. But at this time, the relationship
between them had changed a lot.

She becthe careful one. She was like walking on thin ice, who was afraid of losing again...
Ironically, no matter how much she had taken care of herself and dress up herself, she could not hide what she
had lost.
She had been the one who was the playgirl and fall for other, and she lost her virginity to other instead of
Patrick. Then, she got marriage and later divorced...
These were the worst parts of her life!
After so many years, she was already in her 30s. Even the house she lived in Northville, she had to tutor the
pervert landlord's son for free so she could get a reduction in her rental payment.
However, when she looked at Patrick, he had becmore mature. He was at his prand had turned into a
highly influential figure in Northville. He even had a beautiful wife by his side, and he might be a father soon.
How could she not panic when she compared herself with Patrick?
Every night before she went to sleep, she would have a look on the photo of Patrick and her.
She did not know when she had lost her beauty in the photo, and she could never go back to the twhen she
was peerlessly charming.
Patrick was listening to the salesperson's introduction to a single bed. When he turned his head, he saw Sissi
looking dejected. He asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"
Sissi quickly cto her senses and shook her head. "Nothing."
Patrick frowned and said, "Are you sure? You look pale. Did you get sick in the car just now?"
How could Sissi expose her inconfidence? She said casually, "Maybe because I've been busy preparing classes
for the students these days, so I'm a little tired."
If this was an excuse given by Amelia, Patrick would definitely question about it first. Then he would analyze it in
detail and find out what was wrong. He would force her to confess until she was willing to tell the truth.
However, Sissi was the one who gave excuse, so Patrick had naturally skipped the steps of questioning her. Even
he could not explain why he did not do so.
When Patrick thought about how Sissi's ex-husband abused her sexually a few days ago in the hotel, he asked
uneasily, "Do you need to go to the hospital to get a check up?"
Sissi smiled back. "It's not a big deal. | don't have to go to the hospital."
The salesperson who waited aside anxiously said helplessly, "Guys, may | ask if this single bed is what you
want?"
Patrick and Sissi who had been chatting there not only ignored the salesperson's introduction, but they seemed
to have no intention of buying it as well.
Wasn't it a waste of time?
Patrick turned his gaze to the salesperson and said indifferently, "I heard your introduction. But why are you
rushing?"
The salesperson wiped the sweat on his forehead awkwardly. The man seemed to have a bad temper and could
not be offended.
Then, Patrick turned to Sissi and asked, "What do you think of this bed?"
Sissi seemed to be thinking about something. "Isn't it too small?"
"It's a single bed, so it's normal that it's small." The salesperson quickly explained.
Sissi blurted out, "Is there a double bed?"
Patrick frowned and asked, "Who do you want to sleep with?"
Sissi ignored the consequences and said, "You!"
Patrick narrowed his eyes.
The salesperson said, "We also have a double bed here. Letbring you to have a look now?"
Sissi looked at Patrick shyly and used her eyes to gesture him for his opinion.
However, his face was tense. He was not as happy as she had imagined.
Sissi could not help but ask nervously, "Patrick? What's wrong with you?"
Patrick was unhappy and said, "Is it fun to teasewith this kind of words?"
Sissi was at a loss when she heard this.
After a long while, she forced a smile and said, "I was just joking. Are you angry?"
Her words did not only failed to appease Patrick's anger. However, it made him sneer. "Joking? Am | a toy in your
eyes?"
Sissi's pretty face turned pale. "No, letexplain..."
While Sissi was crying, the salesperson could not bear to see her crying and said to Patrick, "Sir, | think your wife
is right. After buying this double bed then both of you can sleep together right?" Patrick turned to the
salesperson and squinted coldly. "Who told you that we are husband and wife?"
The salesperson was shocked by Patrick's imposing manner and did not dare to speak further.
When Sissi heard Patrick's denial on the spot, it really embarrassed her. She shouted with grief and indignation,
"I won't buy this bed!"
After she finished her words, she wiped her tears and ran out.
Patrick clenched his fist and his feet had been rooted at the spot. He did not chase after her.
The salesperson who stood aside asked weakly, "Sir, don't you want to chase after her?"
Patrick suddenly changed his mind and told the salesperson, "Giveeach for every model of the furniture in
your shop. Then send them to the address | just told you. Do you hear me?" The salesperson's eyes lit up. "Sure!
Would you like to pay with card or cash?"
Patrick took out a credit card from his suit jacket. "Card. Remember, | want the best in your shop."
The salesperson took the card and nodded as he said, "No problem! Please wait a moment."
After a pause, the salesperson turned and called the other workers in the store, "Jacob, bring this gentleman to
the sofa to rest. Then pour a glass of water for him."
