My words made Caroline look a little embarrassed. But Patrick did not pay attention to me at all.
He put his arms around Caroline's waist and leaned over to kiss her, "Be good. I will caress you when I go back at night."
The two of them interacted with each other affectionately. And I stood aside as if I were an outsider.
There was no doubt that my oath of sovereignty just now had become a great irony.
In the end, Patrick sent Caroline away and entered the Cowell Family's house with me.
We changed our shoes and went in. The servant took us to the main hall.
Just as I was walking, I felt a warm sensation in my right hand.
Looking down, I saw that Patrick took my hand. His expression was indifferent as if nothing had happened.
I couldn't help but feel my heart beating fast.
When we arrived at the main hall, Patrick's grandfather, Ned Cowell, was already waiting
for us.
When we came to the front of Ned, Patrick let go of his hand and introduced me to Ned.
After we sat down, Ned asked me some questions, all of which I answered truthfully.
During the whole process, Patrick sometimes treated me intimately by either helping me comb my hair or wrapping around my waist.
When Ned asked me some questions that I found tricky to answer, he would help me out in a gentle voice.
It was the same for the dinner later on. Patrick would help me get some food and peel the fishbone off for me.
It wasn't until 10:30 p.m. that we came out of Ned's house.
Before leaving, Ned patted Patrick on the shoulder and said, "I am very satisfied with her. You should hurry up and try to give birth to a fat grandson for me next year!"
After that, Patrick held me in his arms and put his face close to me. Then he said in an ambiguous tone, "Did you hear what Grandpa had said? We'll have to fight hard when we are at home today."
He was too close to me. And the heat was blowing on my ears. My face couldn't help but turn red.
Ned knew what a going on at a glance and urged, "Okay, okay. You two should go home!"
