Wedding Night Passion：Sickly Master hold me tight

"He is what?" Selena Patrick's sharp gaze shot towards Judy Patrick like a cold arrow. "I warn you, don't use my mother's death and my father's illness as an excuse. Otherwise, no one will have a good ending."The girl quickly went upstairs.Downstairs, Darren Patrick clutched his aching chest, struggling to catch his breath. Judy Patrick, while helping him to calm down, said, "You know her temper; she won't back down. Why did you bring up that woman's death? You know she can't bear to hear anyone mention her mother.""I raised her from six to twenty years old. Look at how she repays us—she doesn't understand anything at all."Sharon Patrick, oblivious to the situation, grabbed Darren Patrick's arm. "Dad, I'm already pregnant with Steven Austin's child. I must marry Steven Austin."Darren Patrick angrily shook off her hand. "How dare you say that? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in such a passive position. Who else would you mess with but Steven Austin?"Sharon Patrick cover

Misfortunes never come singly, and a rope always breaks at its weakest point.Selena Patrick, who had planned to discuss Edgar Patrick's condition with Freda Patrick in a few days, found herself unable to broach the subject any longer.After comforting Freda Patrick, Selena Patrick left the ward and paid part of the hospitalization fee on her behalf. Staring at the balance in her bank account, she felt despondent.Lowering her gaze, she pondered for a long time before gently removing the necklace that had been around her neck for twenty years. Clutching it tightly in her hand for a few seconds, she then stood up and walked out.She would pawn it; it could help her through this immediate crisis. No matter how reluctant she was, no matter how much she cherished it, without money, everything would be impossible.Holding the necklace, Selena Patrick left the hospital and went to the nearest pawn shop, where she handed it over to the staff at the counter."Miss, this necklace has an o

The old lady instantly smiled, "How have I wronged you, dear?""Young Master...," she meant to say, is clearly a trap."My grandson, aside from having a bit of night blindness, some skin conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease, and mobility issues with his legs, doesn't really have any other bad points."Selena Patrick's eyes widened in shock as she stared at grandma...Is there anything good left?"Grandma, don't joke with me like this. I'm easily scared.""Grandma knows, it's unfair to you, but I promise that what you will gain will far outweigh what you give."Since she was being so straightforward, Selena Patrick saw no need to hold back either."Since Grandma is being so open, may I ask, what exactly can I get out of this?"The old lady still wore a warm, amiable smile, "You will get everything you wish for.""What you care about most is your father's treatment. Grandma promises you, we will provide the best possible care for him."It seemed the Maugham family h

The butler, with a smile plastered on his face, spoke to Selena Patrick. "Young Madam, the matriarch said that once married, a couple should live together. This way, you can take better care of Young Master; he hasn't been well lately."Selena Patrick was at a loss: Is he about to die?"Is... is he suffering from some life-threatening illness?" Selena Patrick asked tentatively.The butler seemed reluctant to elaborate, "With proper care, the Young Master will get better."This vague response only piqued Selena Patrick's curiosity about Jeffrey Maugham even more. Was he really as rumored, half-dead and barely alive? Since he could give birth to a child, it meant his body used to be fine. So what exactly happened to turn him into such a sickly person?With mixed feelings, Selena Patrick finally met the legendary Jeffrey Maugham. He appeared to still be asleep, lying stiffly on the large bed. The butler whispered to her, "The Young Master needs to take his medicine when he wakes up.

"Vomit, hurry up." All she cared about now was how to induce vomiting so he could expel the poison.The man looked at her as if she were a monster, his face filled with anger. "What are you talking about, vomiting?""You need to vomit it out; that medicine cannot be taken," she said, trying to pry open his mouth again. But before her fingers could reach his throat, he pushed her away."What's wrong with you?""I'm doing this for your own good," she retorted, looking at him as if he didn't understand her intentions."For my own good? Why should I believe you?"Facing the man who doubted her, Selena Patrick felt utterly helpless. She had heard someone was going to poison him, but did she have any evidence?No.Without evidence, it was just a rumor. She had only just entered the Maugham family, and no one would take her seriously. How much credibility did her words hold?"If you don't believe me, then forget it."She felt powerless. The matters of the Maugham family seemed far m
