T — he atmosphere in the living room was heavy, and no one had much to talk about. Patty Jones stared at Joshua, thinking, it would be such a blissful thing to have such a man.
But right now, this matter of happiness only belonged to Elizabeth.
Joshua could also feel the emotions in Patty Jones's eyes, but he ignored them.
It was unknown what sort of feeling he had, Patty Jones clearly did not look bad, but Joshua did not like women like her.
Perhaps anyone he could fall in love with would have a special kind of attractiveness.
Fortunately, the lunch had started and Joshua was sitting at the table. Joshua did not talk much. Elizabeth's mother asked him a few questions before he replied. But during the meal, he took special care of Elizabeth intentionally or unintentionally, and even gave her some food to eat, telling her not to eat spicy food because her injured hand had not completely healed.
After the meal, Elizabeth and Elizabeth planned to leave. Elizabeth's mother and Barry sent them to the door and watched their car go into the distance.
Patty Jones stood at the entrance of the hall as if she had lost her soul, with her face pale.
Barry turned his head to see his daughter like this. He wanted to go up and comfort her, but she stomped her feet in anger and ran upstairs.
Her mother had been paying attention to Elizabeth and Joshua earlier, so she hadn't noticed Patty Jones's mood. Now that she was running upstairs, she couldn't help but ask Barry: "What's wrong with her?"
"I'll go up and take a look!" Barry's face immediately became ugly.
Patty Jones laid on the bed, covered herself with the blanket and started to cry, feeling wronged and sad.
Barry knocked on the door, and then walked in.
"Patty, don't cry!" Barry pitied her daughter and advised her in a low voice.
"Why does Joshua like her so much? Why? I can't accept it, I'm going crazy with anger!" Patty Jones threw the quilt over, and asked with a face full of anger.
Barry knew that her daughter hadn't suffered any grievances since she was young. After
her mother passed away, Barry had given her almost all of his love. He gave whatever she wanted. She was a princess to dote on.
The more pampered a flower was, the more it could not withstand a merciless blow from the wind and rain. At this moment, Patty Jones, who had met with a setback, would only feel an instant of collapse.
"You have to be patient. I think you can only accept your life. Just a moment ago at the table, you saw that Joshua is very concerned about Elizabeth. You will not have a chance!" It wasn't that Barry wanted to strike a blow at her, he just hoped that she would be able to see the reality of the situation and not be so fool of herself.
"I don't want to. I don't want to accept my fate. Dad, I really love Joshua, you might not be able to understand how much I love him!" Patty Jones felt as if a piece of her heart had been cut off, and her eyes turned red from the pain.
"No matter how much you like him, it's useless. Don't tell me you can still snatch him away?" Barry's current three views were still quite positive.
"I'm not afraid of it!" Patty Jones thought about the things that she had snatched from Elizabeth often in the past.
"You think Joshua as your plaything so you can steal it if you want? but let me remind you, Joshua is the second Young Master of the Wayne Family. He's very important. Don't mess with him, don't make him angry!" Barry could only remind her a few times.
Unfortunately, how could the current Patty Jones listen? She was blinded by jealousy.
After exiting the Jones household, Joshua and Elizabeth secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"To be honest, this kind of family atmosphere is really depressing. It's really hard for you to stay for so many years!" The more Joshua understood about the environment Elizabeth grew up in, the more he felt sorry for her.
