At this moment, Angela had just arrived at the villa.
After she opened the door and saw Patrick, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
âWhy are you here?â Angela asked.
Patrick smiled gently as he replied, âLong time no see. I have a shoot in Lithoria, so I planned to stay overnight. I didnât know you would come over. Iâll leave in a while if my presence bothers you.â
Before Angela married Kenneth, she had worked as a behindâtheâscenes manager for a while, and Patrick was one of the artists she managed, the most hardworking one.
Angela admired him, and they soon became friends. Even after Angela stopped managing Patrick, she arranged for a topânotch agent in the industry for him. And over these years, Patrickâs popularity had been rocketing.
Angela had given Patrick the key to this villa when she knew about the difficulties he faced, telling him that he could come here anytime.
Later, after Angela married Kenneth, she became entirely focused on healing Kennethâs leg, completely forgetting about this matter.
âItâs okay. Itâs getting late, and youâre such an eyeâcatcher. It would be inconvenient for you to stay in a hotel. You can leave tomorrow.â As Angela was about to go upstairs with her luggage, Patrick walked up to her, saying, âLet me help you with that.â
âNo need. Itâs not that heavy.â
âAre you planning to move in?â
There was a hint of cautious probing in Patrickâs tone, but Angela didnât notice. She nodded. âYes, so it might be inconvenie you to stay
in the future.â
âOkay, I understand. Iâve been living here for free all these years, and Iâm already grateful enough.â
Seeing his serious expression, Angela couldnât help but smile, âNow that youâre a movie star, you can afford ten such villas.
Seeing h
Patrick smiled slightly. He had indeed bought the neighboring villa, but he still preferred this one because it carried the atmosphere of Angelaâs life.
âCoffee? Iâm making some,â he asked.
âOkay, but I need to take a shower first,â Angela replied.
âAll right.â
After helping Angela with her luggage upstairs, Patrick returned to the kitchen with a smile to continue grinding coffee beans.
Just as he finished brewing the coffee, the doorbell rang,
He walked to the door and, through the peephole, saw someone outside that made him astonished.

Chapter 4
It was actually Kenneth, the CEO of Sinclair Group!
He often appeared in financial magazines, so Patrick recognized him instantly. Moreover, Kenneth had recently invested in a movie Patrick was starring in.
Patrick wondered why Kenneth would come there.
He probably wanted to see Angela, though.
However, the chance of these two knowing each other was minimal.
As Patrick contemplated, Kenneth had run out of patience and repeatedly pressed the doorbell.
Finally, the door opened.
But to Kennethâs shock, the person who opened it wasnât Angela but a man he had never seen before â presumably the new acclaimed actor that Kevin mentioned, Patrick.
A hint of sharpness flashed in Kennethâs eyes, and his suppressed anger almost erupted. âWhereâs Angela?â
Sensing the hostility from Kenneth, Patrick furrowed his brows. âSheâs showering. Mr. Sinclair, do you have business with her?â
âHuh!â
Kenneth sneered, his voice laced with ice. âI am her husband, What do you think?â
