She leaned her head against his back and caught a whiff of his scent. He smells clean and fresh, and there's even a hint of mint.
Patrick held her hands and replied, “I was done with it a long time ago. Let's go back together tonight.”
Gwendolyn smiled when she heard that. She was laughing at herself because she realized how clingy she was.
Patrick had somewhat of a similar feeling. I can't get enough of this woman.
At eleven in the morning, they arrived at the seaside mansion.
Gwendolyn got changed and noticed Patrick looking at her from the entrance of the walk-in closet. I've never seen him so unoccupied.
She walked up to him and caressed his face. “If you don't have work to do today, sleep here. You surely didn't get a good night's sleep last night.”
Patrick had woken up early that morning, and dark circles were forming under his eyes.
Although he didn't seem tired, it was safe to assume he was worn out.
“Sure, but let me drive you,” Patrick responded.
Gwendolyn had no reason to reject his offer, so she nodded with a smile.
Patrick drove down the coastal road in a blue convertible sports car while Gwendolyn sat in the passenger's seat. She was squinting her eyes as she gazed at the amazing view.
Obviously, she was having trouble keeping her eyes open due to the glaring sun.
Right then, Patrick put on a pair of sunglasses and passed her a pair as well.
Gwendolyn felt a lot more comfortable after putting on the sunglasses.
While feeling the sea breeze on her skin, she turned to look at the man in sunglasses and a white T-shirt. He's as handsome as a character in a comic.
Suddenly, Gwendolyn felt blessed. I've been through so many hardships, but I'm now blessed with an incredible man in return. Those sufferings are worth it, it seems.
Gwendolyn would be meeting Sophia at a restaurant in the pedestrian zone. Since cars weren't allowed to enter, Patrick had no choice but to stop by the side of the road.
