Chapter 78 Do Not Look at Indecent Things

"Um, Aunt, I want to go out for a bit later to get some clothes from my rental place, and I haven't seen my stepmom and Zoe for a long time. I'm afraid they might worry…" Even though they had never called her.

"Then let me go with you?" Patrick poked his head out from the kitchen.

"No, you still need to go to the supermarket, right? I'll be fine…"

"Are you really okay? How about I take you there, and then I'll go to the supermarket? Once you're done, I can come back to pick you up…" To make her outings easier, Jasper voluntarily offered her his car, so she had a driver at her disposal.

"Okay…" Zervini agreed readily; Patrick seemed more anxious than usual.

Patrick had the driver take Zervini to the bottom of her old apartment building.

"Should I go up with you?" Patrick still wasn't at ease about Zoe and her mother. Although they no longer yelled at Zervini like they used to, there was still some underlying tension.
