“Yeah. Sort of,” replied Patrick perfunctorily.
He did not raise his head and look her in the eye. Feeling bored, he opened the box of puffs and
stuffed one into his mouth.
“I haven’t been feeling the best for the past few days too. Mando had given me two finance books
which are as thick as bricks. Other than work, I’ve only been reading them,” stated Genevieve.
“Finance books? Did you start learning about finance?” Patrick was stunned upon hearing what she
said.
“Yeah. Mando said that it’s best for me to study right now. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have the time once I
get the family’s company back,” she responded.
At that moment, his eyes accidentally met hers, and he quickly lowered his head.
Patrick had known Armand for a long time and knew that Armand was not a patient man. Judging by
Armand’s gestures, Patrick could tell that Armand was looking out for Genevieve and was devoted to
her.
That’s great…
“Patrick?” Genevieve called him when she saw him lowering his head. She began to wave her hand in
front of him as if he did not hear her.
“I beg your pardon?” Patrick seemed lost as he looked at her.
“I said that the company is sending me on a business trip to Bera, and I want you to come along with
me,” she uttered.
She thought for a while before she went on, “Why are you in a trance? Did you think about the task
Steven told you to handle? I can go by myself if you’re busy.”
I guess it’s no big deal. I can meet up with Mr. Leigh’s team once I set foot in Bera.
Patrick went quiet before asking, “When are you leaving for Bera? I’ve done everything Steven told me
to do.”
“Tomorrow morning.”
“All right. I’ll get the HR department to prepare my visa, and I should be able to get it tomorrow
morning.”
Genevieve felt hungry as she watched him eating the puffs continuously. So, she reached for one and
popped it in her mouth. “I’ll head over to Swallow Garden with you after work. You can go ahead and
pack your stuff and stay at my place tonight. Then, we can head to the airport together tomorrow
morning. Oh! Maria made some good soup for tonight.”
“Wow! That’s great! I love Maria’s cooking.” His eyes glistened as soon as he heard her words.
She let out a sigh of relief when she noticed his change of mood.
“Maria is like my nanny. I shall allow you to come to my place often to have meals since you’re such a
sweet talker. All right, then. Enjoy the snack. I’ll leave now to get some work done.”
Subconsciously, she licked her fingers after eating the puff and recalled Armand’s warning. Quickly, she
grabbed a few pieces of tissue from the tissue box.
Abruptly, she stopped in her tracks and turned around after taking only a few steps.
At that moment, Patrick was staring at her and was caught off guard. “W-What… What are you doing?”
he stammered.
“Let me ask you something. I saw you carving something earlier? What is it?” she asked, pointing at his
desk.
In response, he pursed his lips. “It’s nothing. I was just doing it for fun,” he replied.
“Okay, then.” With that, she left the room.
As soon as Genevieve returned to her office, she checked for flights to Bera for the next day and
bought tickets for her and Patrick.
Just as she finished sipping her water, Jenny came in to speak to her about work.
After returning to Regality Gardens with Patrick and having dinner, only then did she have time to
unbox her parcels.
There was a beautiful green silk dress in the shopping bag which was in season.
Other than that, there were a pair of precious emerald earrings in another box that was light green in
color.
It was from one of her favorite brands, and the earrings were stunning. There was no doubt that they
would become the objects of her affection.
She immediately put them on, took photos, and sent them to Armand, praising him that he knew her
best.
