Chapter 72 Is this reason enough?

Book:t8 Published:2024-5-1

After sending a text message to Patrick, Twinkle took off the earrings while sitting in front of the dressing table and carefully placed them in the jewelry box.
The phone vibrated on the desk.
Patrick replied a word to her. “Same.”
She curled her lips, thinking that he was probably quite busy, because otherwise he could’ve called her or replied with more words in the text.
She sent him a message because she was afraid that he was busy, and she was a little bit shy in her heart. She didn’t want to take the initiative to call him and make him too proud.
Recalling every bit of quarrel with Patrick, she suddenly couldn’t help but say, “When uncle is sharp-tongued, he’s actually quite cute.”
She shook her head vigorously. Twinkle felt that she was crazy!
What girl finds the person who verbally abuses her cute?
Knock knock knock!
After the sound of knocking came Dawn’s concerned voice. “Twinkle, are you done?”
Twinkle took out the ring that Dawn had given her from the jewelry box and walked to the door.
When the door opened, Twinkle saw Dawn looking at her with a smile.
He wore a smoky gray T-shirt and light-coloured jeans. He looked tall and thin, handsome and sunny.
But the more he was like that, the more distressed Twinkle felt.
Not feeling sorry for others, but for Patrick!
That guy hasn’t stood up since the age of 17. Dawn’s sunny handsomeness further contrasted with uncle’s disability.
Her white palm stretched out towards him and spread out.
The delicate diamond ring lay quietly in her palm.
Dawn looked at her trembling eyelashes, and his heart trembled. “Twinkle?”
“There are some things that I don’t need to say. I believe that Dawn understands what I think.” She did not raise her eyes but spoke with seriousness. “When I went to Purple palace last night, I called home for the first time. I remember Dawn said that if what I need is an older brother, you will definitely choose to be my brother, protect me silently, and give me your sincere wishes.”
Dawn was silent for a while, then took the ring from her palm.
His other hand rubbed her hair as usual, and said, “Silly girl, what Dawn said to you naturally always count. Don’t be unhappy, let’s go, I’ll take you shopping, and I’ll buy delicious food for you. Let’s go for the movies!”
Twinkle raised her eyes to look at him.
His clear eyes were free of impurities, and he looked at her with a smile, but she couldn’t understand. “Dawn, I seem to know you less and less.”
In terms of scheming, perhaps Dawn was not as good as Patrick.
However, this did not mean that Dawn had no intentions.
Dawn smiled, as if looking at her helplessly. “Twinkle, don’t be too harsh on me. You return the ring to me. I pretend to be fine to make you feel at ease, but you shouldn’t doubt me too much. I have always been the same to you.”
“But I don’t want to go out.”
“Hey, you need to go out and breathe and relax.”
“I go on the computer in the room and surf the Internet, it’s the same.”
“How can that work? You forgot what Uncle Simpson told you before? Let’s go!”
He took her by the hand and was about to go out, but in the room behind him came a pleasant phone ring. Twinkle had never set a special tune for Patrick’s incoming calls, but when it rang, she could feel that it was him!
Suddenly breaking free of Dawn’s hand, she hurriedly turned and rushed back.
Before she picked up the phone, the other big hand picked up her phone first, and even put it in her ear!
There was no talking on Twinkle’s side before a nice male voice sounded. “What are you doing?”
Dawn stood still as if struck by lightning, not daring to talk. “You! Are you Patrick? You can speak?!”
“Give the phone back to me!”
Twinkle was angry, she rushed forward, but Dawn was taller than her, stronger than her, and had a physique from military school. How could a girl Twinkle win over him?
Dawn pushed Twinkle onto bed, turned and stared fiercely out the window, staring at the gentle eyes on the billboard. “You can talk, you pretended to be mute! You are an unpredictable man. You seduced Twinkle and won’t let go, what is your intention?!”
“Dawn! You bastard! You give the phone back to me! This is not uncle talking! This is either Trump or Donald talking!”
Twinkle got up from the bed, rushed behind Dawn and kicked him viciously!
Dawn was shocked by Twinkle’s sturdy momentum!
Growing up together from a young age, since when did he ever see Twinkle so angry that she wanted to fight?
Never!
“Uncle has been mute for so many years. If he can speak, would he be abandoned by the family? Are you an idiot? That is the voice of Trump or Donald!”
Twinkle smashed his shoulder fiercely, with a look so fierce and vicious as she wanted to kill Dawn!
While Dawn was shocked, he recovered.
Yes, if Patrick had no problem, he would not be abandoned by his family and become an abandoned son everyone laughed at. Patrick was not a fool. Why would he give up and not fight to become the successor, but instead become a crippled ridiculed by the world?
Twinkle snatched the phone, her voice tense, and trembling slightly. “Donald? You tell the uncle, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’ll call you later!”
There is no sound from the other side.
Twinkle didn’t wait, and quickly ended the call!
She weakly sat on the edge of the bed, dropped her head, and closed her eyes.
She was scared to death!
Dawn was so close to finding out that the uncle could talk!
The room was very quiet, so quiet that it was even a little weird!
Dawn was silent for a long time, and he squeezed out a word carefully. “Twinkle!”
“Dawn, you changed.” Twinkle said sadly. “Or your nature has always been like this, but there was no chance for you to be exposed before, and I have never discovered it.”
“Twinkle!”
Dawn was shocked!
He felt that after she said something like that, they would never go back to the past!
Twinkle stood up and walked to the door of the room impatiently. She stood relaxed by the door, but her tone was hard. “Dawn, I’m so tired, I want to sleep. Go shopping by yourself!”
He hurried forward to catch up. “Why? Just now you obviously wanted to go with me, I just grabbed a call from his subordinate!”
She raised her eyebrows and said loudly, “Because I don’t want to make him sad anymore!”
Dawn was startled.
Twinkle looked at him and spoke word by word. “I like him. I don’t want to see the person I like unhappy anymore. So, I can’t go shopping with you! Dawn, is this reason enough?”
