You Looked Down on Me Once Now You Look Up (Patricia and Oliver) novel Chapter 705

Patricia had to pull out every trick she knew just to get him to drink the hangover soup. Then she helped him find his pajamas and nudged him into the bathroom. When Oliver was drunk, he got clingy—so clingy he made her promise she wouldn’t fall asleep while he was in the shower. He didn’t even let her close the bathroom door.

She sat at the end of the bed, phone in hand, and let out a long sigh. Taking care of someone like this was exhausting. Absolutely exhausting.

Her phone started buzzing on the cushion beside her. Patricia glanced at the screen.

Sara: Aunt Patricia, some “homework” for you.

There were eight links below the message, all forwarded from some app.

Secrets to Handling Men

The Ultimate Guide to Winning Over Your Guy

How Smart Women Keep Men Wrapped Around Their Finger

…and a bunch more in the same style.

Patricia couldn’t help but twitch a smile. Earlier, when she was downstairs wrestling with a tipsy Oliver, Sara had come home, caught Patricia’s fed-up expression, and gave her a look that said, you’re on your own. Then she’d sent her these so-called “study materials.”

A little late for that now.

The shower shut off. As if he was scared she’d disappear, Oliver actually turned off the water just to call out for her.

“Patricia?”

She raised her voice. “What?”

“Are you asleep?”

“No, I’m waiting for you. Just finish your shower.”
