My Wife Is An All-Around Expert

Robert was dumbfounded when he heard that. He opened his eyes wide, looking incredulous. “No way. You like her and want to woo her, but you’re unwilling to confess your feelings to her. Hey, what are you trying to do?”

Atrace of regret flashed across Patrick’s face. He spoke more than usual when he tried to explain, “Back then, | warned her not to harbor any thoughts about me. If | pursue her now, it’s easy to cook up an excuse to give her gifts and buy her dinners. However, it will be very embarrassing if | confess my feelings to her now.”

Robert gave Patrick a bewildered look. “So, you want to make her fall in love with you without swallowing your pride?” Patrick did not say a word, implicitly agreeing with Robert.

Robert stared at him, perplexed. “By the way, this is the first time

gone back on your word. You said that you won't marry her for love. Yet now, you’ve married her and have falled in love with her. This is a breach of your contract.”

Patrick looked at him coldly. “Are you complaining that life has been too. easy for you?”

Robert immediately chuckled. “How can that be? Well, you can continue to keep your feelings to yourself and not tell her how you feel. You can continue to dream about the day she'll be moved by your love and fall for

you.

Robert was cursing Patrick in his heart, “You can continue to dream. If your pride is so important to you, you can do nothing and watch your beloved leave with another man. By then, I’m sure you can’t even cry.”

Of course, Patrick also knew he could not continue to bide his time. without expressing his love for Violet.

He leaned back on the couch and drank the hard liquor in one gulp. A frosty, aloof expression was etched across his face. He did not appear to look like someone troubled by romantic relationships.

Robert's bark was worse than his bite. He did not want Patrick to be plagued by such matters too.

He winked at Patrick and started to devise a wicked plan. “If you can’t bring yourself to confess your feelings to her, why don’t you get drunk? It will make things easier.”

Patrick looked up at Robert without saying a word. He had tried to get close to Violet when he was drunk twice. The first time he was thrown out of the room by the housekeeper. The second time, he was slapped in the face.

When Robert saw that Patrick was quiet, he became a little anxious. He nagged, “I think this is a good idea. She can’t blame you for doing something illogical when you're drunk. You didn’t do it on purpose. There’s nothing she can do. She can only ask you not to drink so much alcohol in the future. However, you can’t pretend to be drunk. Most people cannot put on a convincing act when they pretend to be drunk. They can blow their covers easily.”

Patrick’s expression flickered when he heard that. “Do you mean, | have to get drunk?” “Uh-huh,” Robert replied proudly. Patrick frowned. “What if the plan fails?”

Robert stared at him as if he was deep in thought. “I remember you seemed to be drunk before, but you didn’t forget what happened. There shouldn’t be any what-ifs.”This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

When Robert saw that Patrick did not argue with him, he continued to goad Patrick, “Let's give it a try. Maybe it will work. Who knows, it may bring both of you closer. We can use alcohol as an excuse to deny everything after that.”

Patrick took the wine glass and spun it before placing it on the table. He then stood up.

Awell-tailored shirt, tucked into his trousers, accentuated his sensuous

waist.

He unbuttoned his shirt leisury and picked up his jacket. “That’s all for now. I’m going to pick her up.”

Meanwhile, in the banquet hall at Sunny May Hotel, Rebecca did not succeed in provoking Violet again. Furious, she gritted her teeth..

She then started to think of another plan to get back at Violet.

Just then, Jules and Freddie walked into the room.

Rebecca panicked when she saw Freddie. She suddenly stood up. guys continue. Enjoy yourselve. I’ve some matters to attend to.”

After bidding the rest farewell, Rebecca left the hotel immediately. She did not want to be embarrassed by Freddie again. When Freddie came back to the room, he was still seated beside Violet. All the while, he had never tried to strike up a conversation with her.

Violet drank too much wine that evening and wanted to go to the bathroom. She stood up and said, “Skyler, excuse me. | want to go to the bathroom.”

Freddie glanced at her and moved aside. Violet quickly walked out of the room.

She went to the bathroom and was about to wash her hands when she suddenly caught sight of a familiar face in the mirror of the sink.

For the past two years, she had never forgotten that face. Even thinking. about it gave her nightmares. However, that person did not seem to notice Violet's akwardness.

She gave a half-smile and said to Violet with an air of superiority, “Violet, what a coincidence!”
