A long while after Freya left, Patrick still had not recovered.
He wondered, 'If only I had gone abroad to find her back then.’
If it were not for those words Linda said...
Linda?
For the first time, Patrick seriously thought about the past.
If Linda had not added fuel to the fire in the police station that day, he would not have been crazy enough to cooperate with Nathan's competitors.
As Freya had said, if Linda did not exist between them, maybe they would have gotten married a long time ago. They might even have children now.
They would not have come to this point.
Patrick could not help but think, 'If only I had kept my distance from Linda when I was with Freya back then.'
After returning to the company, Patrick walked to his office door, hesitated, and went to find Linda instead.
He could not find her.
He remembered Freya’s reminder and opened her drawer. Inside, he saw a beautiful gift box that was wrapped tightly with a bow. It was clear that it was a gift from someone.
Patrick nodded.
After he went back to the office in the afternoon, Linda made an appointment with Rebecca and left the company.
She did not notice that there was a taxi following her.
Patrick was sitting in the taxi.
He did not drive his own car because he thought that i t would be more difficult to be detected in a taxi.
