The Daring Billionaire’s Wife
Chapter 129
Vanessa
I had no plans of meeting Patrick this morning but at his request to urgently meet up, I changed my mind about it. He also said he needed to talk to me in private, which meant I shouldn't have my bodyguards. Usually, I wouldn't listen to him but the tone of his voice when he said it made me wonder just how serious this was, so here I am, meeting him on the street that he mentioned with the intention to leave my bodyguards in their car.
I spot him standing by the sidewalk and he instantly rushes to the car, looking a little troubled and scruffy, which greatly worries me.
"Is everything alright?" I ask
"Hey, we really need to talk." His eyes widen a little. "Come with me."
"Where?"
"It's not too far from here. We need privacy as much as possible."
I shake my head as I question if I'm really about to do this, then step out of the car and follow him. He leads me to an alley, making me feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Why did you bring me here?" I ask.
"Just so we could talk. How are you doing?"
"Are you being serious right now?"
He chuckles.
"Wait, are you drunk?" I furrow my eyebrows.
"It doesn't matter. This was the only way I could do this. I knew that if I mentioned my apartment, you wouldn't want to go there after what happened last time." "And so you thought this was a better idea?"
"Yes," he says with confidence. "I just..."
He trails off when my phone suddenly rings from my bag and I already have an idea of who it could be.
I gesture to him with my hand to wait and he nods as I pick up to talk to my father.
Right after the call, Patrick says, "Is everything alright?"
"Everything's fine."
"You looked a little sad even though you smiled."
"Was it that obvious?"
"Yes, so what's going on?"
I sigh heavily, deciding to tell him about my father's health condition and as soon as I'm done, he takes a step forward and wraps his arms around me. "I'm so sorry about that," he says.
