Chapter 190
Mr. Sniper didn’t deny it: “Indeed, Dad knows everything.”
Claire’s eyes instantly lit up. “What? Did I hear correctly? My brother actually willingly
gave a girl a dress. Is she here today?”
“She’s here.”
Patrick also became interested upon hearing this: “What kind of dress? What color and
style? I went out for a walk today and almost encountered every girl in the area. If your
tell me, I’m sure I can remember!”
The curious siblings‘ eyes were filled with excitement.
Mr. Sniper couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head. “It’s just an ordinary dress.”
“It’s not ordinary,” Mr. Martin snorted. “I’ve heard about it. You made a big move and had Auran’s designer personally design and make it for half a year. It was quite thoughtful!”
Claire, unable to get any information from her brother, turned to her father and asked,
“Dad, how did you know?”
“Huh, how did I know? People in the fashion industry have gone crazy. Many people
called me and asked if our family was preparing for a wedding. When have you ever
seen him put so much effort into a girl?”
Claire smirked sneakily. “I have seen it before. The woman that my brother liked in the
past, didn’t he feel heartbroken for a long time?”
‘That was in the past, and it’s been many years since then. That woman probably has
children by now, right? Your brother needs to move on!” Patrick clenched his fist and
said, “Nathaniel, I support you. If you like her, go after her. No pain, no gain!”
Mrs. Martin playfully patted him: “You child, do you even know how to use idioms?”
Claire burst into laughter, mocking Patrick for being illiterate. This angered Patrick, who waved his fist to intimidate her. After a while, he couldn’t bring himself to strike her. Instead, he forgot about the wound on his arm. The scab had already formed, but the force of his movement caused it to reopen and bleed. It hurt so much that he gasped.

Mrs. Martin became anxious and quickly called the servant to bring the first–aid kit.
Mr. Martin glanced at him and said, “A real man should endure a small injury like this.
Just bear with it!!
Mrs. Martin wanted to say something, but in the end, all her words turned into a
helpless sigh.
“Mom, what’s wrong? Why are you sighing?”
‘It’s nothing,” Mrs. Martin said, forcing a smile. “I just feel that some people are biased.
After hearing this, Claire wisely didn’t dare to ask any further and remained silent.
Mr. Martin, on the other hand, didn’t notice his wife’s slight moodiness. He was focused
on his eldest son, even though he was adopted. But Mr. Martin felt that this son
resembled him more than his biological son, Patrick.
Patrick had a delicate and slender appearance, resembling his wife’s figure more than
that of a man. He lacked the physical strength and charisma that a man should
possess, and his talents were also mediocre, making it difficult for him to handle
important responsibilities.
On the other hand, their adopted son showed extraordinary intelligence and abilities.
from a young age. As he grew older, he became a steady and composed man. His
temperament and character were remarkably similar to Mr. Martin’s, even more
reserved and calm. Mr. Martin became increasingly satisfied and naturally invested
more effort and attention into this adopted son.
The only regret was that he was also emotionally scarred and had no intention of
dating or getting married again. Furthermore, he became even more low–key, making it
difficult to even meet him.
‘I think I know why you came home this time, Mr. Martin chuckled. “You wanted Mom
and Dad to meet her, right?”
Mr. Sniper smirked and nodded. “Yes, I wanted Mom and Dad to meet her.”
Who is she exactly? Patrick couldn’t care less about the pain in his arm as he tried to look around. Many girls noticed his gaze and turned their heads toward the chairman’s
seat.
After thinking for a moment, Mr. Martin said, “The designer did mention the style of that
dress to me. It seems to be white and showing shoulders.”
Mrs. Martin frowned at his words. “Honey, it’s called a low–cut dress. You make it sound
like the girl is wearing something immodest.
“Oh, right, right, low–cut dress, low–cut dress. Well, I’m a man; how can I keep track of
what you women call different dress styles?”
Suddenly, Patrick excitedly pointed in a direction. “I see her, right over there! The girl in
the white dress has a low–cut dress. She’s the only one wearing that style in the entire
venue!”
Claire hurriedly joined in. “Where, where? I want to see it too. I want to see the
enchanting woman who can capture my big brother.”
Patrick pointed at her again. “Do you see her? At the farthest table…”

“Oh, oh, I see, I see! But…” Claire’s tone suddenly changed. “That girl… she looks… quite
ordinary.”
Patrick retorted, “I think she looks pretty good, although not stunning, but quite
graceful. She also seems gentle and quiet, just like Mom. She must be a very gentle
girl.”
Claire rolled her eyes at him. “Brother, let me tell you, women know best what kind of
person another woman is. I’m telling you, if this girl takes off her makeup, she’ll
immediately turn into an ugly freak, believe it or not.”
Mrs. Martin frowned and scolded her, “Stop talking nonsense and sit down. She’s the
girl your brother has taken a liking to. Can there be anything wrong with that?”
“Hey, Mom, you really shouldn’t believe it. My brother has made a mistake this time. And let me tell you, with my strong sixth sense, I’m a hundred percent sure that this girl is a gold digger.”
Seeing Claire getting more and more out of control, Mrs. Martin quickly pulled her down and warned her with her eyes, “You little troublemaker, you better shut up. The girl your
brother has chosen will be your sister–in–law in the future. Is it appropriate for you to
speak like this?”
Claire pursed her lips, unimpressed. “If my brother’s taste is really that bad, then I have
nothing to say.
Suddenly, her eyes sparkled with excitement, as if she had stumbled upon a hidden.
treasure. “Wow, what an incredible coincidence! The two girls that Patrick is interested
in are actually sitting together.”
