NovelEnglishChapter 48 Small Actions Occur Frequently Patrick had a headache. He held his forehead with his hand and rubbed his temples with his thumb. He couldn't figure out why he had kissed her. And he had even sucked her lips until they turned red. His image was ruined. Could it be true that men behave differently when they are drunk? Downstairs, Vera took a deep breath behind the steps, trying to calm herself down. Then she walked out of the elevator lobby to greet Patrick's close friends.
Shawn asked, "Is Patrick asleep?" "Yes, he's asleep," Vera replied.

lan was the first to notice that her lips were different from before. He nudged Scott and made him look at Vera's lips.
Scott looked at Vera and then nodded at lan. Ian was speechless, wondering why Scott nodded at him.
Scott didn't realize that her lips were swollen. He thought to himself, 'No wonder Patrick's wife stayed in the room for so long earlier. She went to touch up her makeup. The lipstick she applied is too obvious.' lan didn't want to argue with Scott, so he went to nudge Owen's arm instead. Owen pushed lan's arm away, then looked at him as if he were saying 'I'm not blind!' They kept making small gestures while Joshua felt embarrassed for them.
Joshua stood up and said goodbye to Shawn, "Uncle Shawn, now that we have safely brought Patrick back, we will leave. We will cand visit you another day." Owen and Scott quickly stood up as well. "Uncle Shawn, we're leaving now. We'll cto see you another day." Since lan's butt had been kicked, he was still a little sore. He stood up slowly. Scott kindly helped lan up. The Olteran family also stood up.
Shawn said, "If you have time, cvisitmore often. I haven't seen you guys in a long time." Vera followed Shawn and sent the group off. As lan got into the car, Vera observed his strange posture.

Shawn turned to look at her, and she looked at him. "Dad, can I ask you a question?" "Of course you can." Vera asked foolishly, "Is lan's tailbone fractured?" Shawn was a bit speechless. "Wait until Patrick wakes up, and you can ask him." Vera still had doubts. Shawn noticed and said, "Just askdirectly if you have any questions. You don't have to hide them." So, Vera no longer concealed her curiosity and asked about what was on her mind. "Just now, was someone called Ewen Moore?" The people beside them laughed when they heard Vera's question. Cindy couldn't help but say, "You are such a silly child." Shawn also had a smile on his face. "He is called Owen Moore, not Ewen Moore." "Ah, so his nis not Ewen," Vera said in realization.
Shawn glanced at Vera's mouth with a smile, then awkwardly looked away and walked into the hallway. Cindy followed closely behind and as she passed by Vera, Vera stopped her and said, "Thank you."
Regardless of anything, Cindy had helped her, so Vera ra wanted to thank her. But that didn't mean she would En overlook what had happened earlier. Cindy arrogantly said, "You are going to thank me?!" "You helped me, so I should thank you. But that doesn't mean our previous issue is resolved," Vera replied.
In the bedroom, Vera sat on the edge of the bed, deep in thought, her hands wrapped around her thoughts. "No, that's not right. X-definitely didn't take off his shoes and socks just now." But as she looked at the shoes and black socks by the bed, she began to ponder, "But when I left, he was asleep."
Vera sat on the edge of the bed, carefully examining Patrick's face. Then, she extended her index finger and poked his face, saying, "Hey, are you awake?"
