Chapter 165

No wonder, I just thought this guy looked kind of familiar.

So it was him.

She had heard this name so many times before, always in connection with Kieran and Roschelle.

Patrick, also born into a rich family, would have had a smooth future if he had followed his familyโ€™s wishes and studied business, but he just had to study medicine. He ignored his familyโ€™s objections and was determined to become a doctor.

After a few years of studying, his family didnโ€™t agree at first, but they had to agree.

If I got the time right, Patrick was twenty-four this year and already had his PhD.

By now, he was probably already a rising star in the medical world.

Before she passed away, Alarieka had already heard that Patrick had become a big name in the medical field.

Patrick, what stood out about him wasnโ€™t just his medical skills and knowledge, but also his deep devotion.

He and Roschelle were childhood friends.

Since he was little, he was Roschelleโ€™s sidekick. His crush on Roschelle was known to everyone.

Back in high school, there were rumors that Kieran and Roschelle were dating, and Patrick rushed to Roschelleโ€™s school at night to confront her.

The answer he got was, of course, the kind of answer that would make him sad.

Since then, Patrick got mad and left the country, and he didnโ€™t come back for years.

In her last life, Alarieka first met Patrick a few years later.

Alarieka looked up and studied Patrickโ€™s face carefully.

It looked really good.

Too bad, later she got disfigured to save Roschelle.

Back then when I saw him, his face was already ruined, and you couldnโ€™t tell what he used to look like.

Itโ€™s just that Alarieka didnโ€™t get upset about his disfigurement.

Patrick was Roschelleโ€™s dog, he bit anyone he saw, and he was ruthless.

In the previous life, with Roschelleโ€™s subtle hints of self-pity and weakness, Patrick, who had always been deeply in love with her, of course didnโ€™t let her go.

Alarieka had already been bitten by Patrick many times and was covered in wounds.

The ambulance they called for the car accident that killed her daughter had Patrick on it.

She wasnโ€™t sure if Patrick saw or heard that there was another girl nearby who was hurt even worse.

But she was sure that if Patrick had known her daughter, who was even more badly hurt, was there too, Patrick still wouldnโ€™t have come to save her.

If Kieran and Roschelle were the main guy and girl in a novel, then Patrick was like the second male lead who was deeply in love with the girl. Even if he couldnโ€™t have Roschelle, he would still watch over her for his whole life.

Alarieka didnโ€™t like Patrick at all, she even felt disgusted by him.

She didnโ€™t look at Patrick anymore, just stared straight ahead.

Patrick propped his chin and looked at her, a smile on his lips, but the smile on his face was full yet fake: โ€œAlarieka, you were pretty famous, everyone said you were reckless and liked Kieran.โ€

Alarieka gave a slight smile, โ€œWhat about you? Did you feel okay watching Roschelle and Kieran being all lovey-dovey?โ€

Patrickโ€™s smile froze and his face darkened. โ€œWhat did you say?โ€

Alarieka crossed her arms and jerked her chin toward Kieran and Roschelle. โ€œItโ€™s more interesting over there, look over there. I saw with my own eyes how much Roschelle loved Kieran. If you want to know, I can tell you too.โ€

Patrick stared at her for a long time with a heavy look in his eyes.

After a moment, Patrick suddenly laughed softly, โ€œAlarieka.โ€

His voice was just as flippant and gentle as before, but there was a coldness in it: โ€œYou really didnโ€™t know whatโ€™s good for you.โ€

Alarieka didnโ€™t care what Patrick said.

She picked up the water cup next to her, was about to drink, and then saw the company logo on the surface of the cup.

The Schultz Group.

That was Patrickโ€™s family business.

The companies that could show up here were the ones that sponsored this Mcintosh Piano Competition.

Patrick noticed her pause and chuckled, โ€œWhat? Scared already?โ€

Alarieka drank a sip of water as usual and didnโ€™t answer.

Patrick didnโ€™t get an answer, and the smile on his lips slowly froze.

โ€œAlarieka,โ€ Patrick stood up, walked over to her, leaned down and stared at her. His amber eyes looked cold.

โ€œI was really looking forward to seeing if you would still be this calm later.โ€

Alarieka suddenly felt a sinking feeling in her heart.

She looked up and met Patrickโ€™s eyes.

Patrick had a smile on his lips and turned to leave.

He didnโ€™t go say hi to Roschelle, but went straight to the competition.
