Chapter 370 Quiet Promises

• Sure enough, Aunt Pauline’s voice stiffened slightly, followed by an awkward laugh.“Oh… you’re together. That’s good. Patrick, Victoria has had a hard life, but she’s a good girl. I saw the news and wanted to tell you—if you truly plan to be with her, take good care of her. Don’t let her be hurt again. Do you understand?”
• Patrick glanced at Natalia beside him and replied without hesitation, his tone firm.“Of course. Even if you hadn’t said anything, I would still protect her. She’s my girlfriend now. As long as I’m here, no one will harm her.”
• “All right, Patrick. That’s all I wanted to say. Victoria doesn’t need to come on the line. You two get some rest.” Aunt Pauline ended the call, clearly ready to hang up.
