"What are you doing?" At this time, the bodyguards beside Patrick were pointing their guns at him!
As soon as he moved, the bodyguards moved their guns as well. But no one dared to shoot him.
"Put down the hard drive in your hands. I've told you long ago I don't want these things. I only want you." As Patrick spoke, he snatched the hard drive away from me, put it on the low table, and looked at me with strong affection in his eyes, "Don't be afraid. I've given up on you once. And I won't do so for a second time."
However, several bodyguards were aiming their guns at Patrick.
"Janetta."
Shelton called me from behind.
Hearing his words, I shivered.
I wanted to stand by Patrick's side strongly. But I knew I couldn't.
I knew that if I dared to follow Patrick, Shelton would dare to kill Patrick!
I thought about it before. Instead of expecting to be with Patrick, I only hoped that he could live well
in this world.
Finally, I bent down, picked up the portable hard drive, and stuffed it into Patrick's hands. Looking at him, I tried to look as cold as possible and said, "Mr. Cowell, take it. I am your uncle's fiancee. Next time you see me, remember to call me aunt."
After saying that, I was about to leave. But Patrick grabbed my hand tightly.
I looked at him, saying, "Let go, Mr. Cowell. Your company is to be closed soon. The way I see it, if any woman were asked to whom to choose between you two, the answer would be self-evident."
I looked pretty indifferent.
However, my heart was bleeding.
Every word I said was like a knife. Instead of stabbing Patrick, they stabbed right in my heart.
They stabbed me one time after another, leaving multiple bloody holes in my heart.
I was in so much pain.
I gritted my teeth, trying not to look sad.
Patrick looked at me and smiled bitterly, saying, "I know why you say this. It's my fault for being useless."
"Mr. Cowell, don't speculate randomly. Women all like men with successful careers. Could it be that you think I am not a woman?" I raised my chin slightly and looked at Patrick, "What's more, you hurt me so many times. On the contrary, Shelton didn't even hurt me once. In that case, how can I choose you?"
"Charlotte, Janetta, no matter who you are, I love you. You are the only one I love in my life." Patrick held my hand tighter and tighter.
He grabbed my arm so tightly, leaving a conspicuous five-fingered handprint on my arm.
"Mr. Cowell, let go of me. We should look forward. After you sent me out, you and I were over."
When I spoke, I tried hard to withdraw my hand.
Patrick refused to let go.
In the end, Shelton came over and held me in his arms. With a wink from him, several bodyguards came over and directly aimed their guns at Patrick's wrists!
I was so scared that I took a deep breath, saying, "Let go!"
Patrick shook his head, "Cripple my hand or go with me."
"You're crazy!"
I couldn't stand it anymore.
Shelton said, "Since Patrick said so..."
"Let go!"
Before Shelton could finish his words, I lifted my leg and kicked the most imperative part of Patrick's body!
In an instant, Patrick let go of me, curled up like a shrimp, and covered his part.
I withdrew my hand, took Shelton's arm directly, and said with a smile, "Let's go."
"Wait a minute." Shelton raised his hand and took the agreements over from Roger, saying, "Patrick, I can transfer these advertising hours to you without any interest incurred..."
"no need!"
This time, Patrick endured the pain and straightened up his back.
However, it seemed that his part was still in pain. And he couldn't completely straighten up his back.
Hearing this, Shelton shrugged his shoulders, "Alright."
After taking Shelton's arm, I kept looking in the direction of the door. Fearing that I would fail to hold myself back and change my mind instead of leaving here, I dared not look at Patrick.
Finally, Shelton was about to leave.
