When Pauline was mentioned, she felt embarrassed and said, "Daddy!"

This "Daddy" sounded like a warning, as if her father had said something that he shouldn't have said.

Then the businessman continued, "Pauline has been living in Nepal for the past few years and has forgotten Northville. If possible, can you show her around?"

With a faint smile on his face, Patrick said, "I'd love to."

Hearing this, Pauline smiled at Patrick politely.

Sitting aside, Amelia noticed the eye contact between Pauline and Patrick and felt a bit upset. She thought, since Patrick gained great popularity among women, she had to be worried lifelong that he might be grabbed away?

Amelia felt helpless, lowering her head and poked the tofu on the plate in front of her.

Darting a look at Amelia, Patrick noticed her jealousy and then began talking to the businessman.

Listening to their conversation, Amelia could figure out that Patrick wanted to import the aquatic products fed by the businessman and the businessman talked big that all his tuna were fed on natural feed, which was costly and it took long to harvest, so his tuna was around $10 more expensive than the market price.

Amelia didn't believe that at all since the vendors in the market were keen on 2 cents and their conversation seemed to make Patrick a cash cow.

But Patrick asked, "May I send someone to pay a visit to uncle's farm?"

The businessman said generously, "No problem! Whenever you come to Nepal, feel free to contact me!"

When the dinner was about to come to an end, Amelia suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen. She couldn't hold on any longer and said, "Excuse me." And left for the toilet.

In the toilet, when Amelia pulled down her pants, she found it was her period, not diarrhea.

She didn't expect this month's period would be one-week earlier than usual.

Luckily, she came to the toilet with her phone, so she texted Patrick about this.

But he replied indifferently, "Wait."

For how long?

Amelia couldn't wait to rush home, but the butt had been stained with blood. She had no other choice but sat on the toilet and couldn't move an inch.

In the private room.

After texting, Patrick said, "Uncle, Pauline, I think we've had a pleasant evening, isn't it? I do look forward to seeing you next time."

The businessman wanted to keep his daughter here with Patrick, but before Patrick bid farewell, Pauline said, "See you next time."

"See you." Then Patrick stood up and saw them off at the door.

After they left, Pauline frowned and said to her father, "Daddy, Patrick is never a good son-in-law for you."

The father asked, "Really? I haven't heard this before."

Pauline lowered her voice and said, "He used to date with one of our teachers in high school... And then, the teacher married a foreigner overseas."

The businessman was surprised and seemed not to believe it, saying, "What? He dated with his teacher? Tut-tut..."

Pauline continued with a hiss, "You know the relationship between a teacher and a student is like a father and a son. Many students in our school had been gossipy about this."

On the empty corridor, the conversation was completely heard by Patrick.

Coming out of the restaurant, Patrick walked into a small convenience store, in which the young female clerks were on duty. Seeing such a good-looking customer, the clerks got excited. Even some of them came up to ask what he needed.

Patrick asked lightly, "Sanitary towels, please?"

"Yes, sir, this way." One of the clerks smiled and guided him to the shelf.

At cashier, Patrick heard the clerks behind whispering, "Those who buy sanitary towels for their girlfriend or wife are really considerate."

Considerate?

Patrick felt delighted at this adjective and the embarrassment of buying the sanitary towels for the first time faded.

In the ladies room.

ram-a-dub-

Hearing the knock, Amelia thought it was someone who pushed her to get out. But when she saw the black leather shoes outside the door on the ground, she asked in surprise, "Is it Mr. Hopper?" "Yes, it's me." Patrick's reply sounded like the voice from heaven at this moment, "Open the door."

Amelia opened a crack, reached out to the sanitary towel, and quickly withdrew her arm.

She thought Patrick would leave after that, but unexpectedly, he was still there. Although he stood outside the door, she felt uneasy, so she reminded, "This is the ladies, Mr. Hopper."

"I know, but I've never been to a ladies. Let me have a look." Patrick said.

"S**t!" Amelia felt embarrassed by Patrick's curiosity.

However, Patrick was still asking, "Do you need help?"

"How can you help?" Looking at her dirty underpants, Amelia regretted not asking Patrick to buy her a new one.

When she was depressed, something light fell from the top of the door to Amelia's head. She took it down and took a look - Huh! It was a pair of new underpants!

How considerate Patrick was!

When Amelia came out of the toilet, Patrick seemed to complain, "Women are troublesome."

Amelia said "thank you" with full gratitude.

On their way home, Amelia asked, "You really wanna buy the aquatic food from the businessman?"

Looking ahead, Patrick asked, "Do you have any other option?"

Amelia felt that Patrick had made a wrong decision, saying, "No matter how nutritious his products are, I'm worried that Roxxon will lose in front of the meticulous vendors."

Patrick said, "No, no, I won't sell them to the market at all."

Amelia looked at him doubtfully and asked, "Then you wanna keep them in a farm?"

"Stupid! Does your IQ decrease due to bleeding?" After Patrick elegantly said vulgarly, he asked, "You forgot our platform online?"

Amelia was stunned at Patrick's idea. If the products were sold to the rich men, Roxxon wouldn't fail at all!

A week later, Amelia received the call from George, who told her that he had been discharged from the hospital. Hearing the weak sound on the phone, she felt guilty for not caring about him. But thinking of what he did to her mother, she felt he deserved it.
