Patrick had never been kicked out before. Ava was outrageous—didn't she care about his pride at all?!
Once the door was locked, Alex released Patrick and adjusted his appearance, smiling as he said, "My apologies."
Patrick's face remained expressionless, completely unimpressed by Alex's polite facade. A wolf in sheep's clothing!
Patrick huffed and reached into his pocket, realizing he'd left his phone inside. He was about to knock when Alex tossed it to him. Patrick stared at Alex in shock, speechless.
"Thought you might forget it, so I brought it out for you. I've got some business to attend to, so I'll be off," Alex said.
Watching Alex's departing figure, Patrick ground his teeth in frustration. He wanted nothing more than to punch Alex to vent his anger. Not only was Alex a polite facade, but he was also a cunning fox.
