395 Kidnap

Melissa hummed in affirmation and remarked seeing Patrick amusing himself, "It isn't the only IQ enough to lead a life, it's your creativity, presence of mind, and your will that leads to success. IQ is just a stupid number."

Aria proudly responded, "Exactly, hence my husband says I have 0 IQ." 

Alan: "..." He couldn't understand why she gets happy hearing it.

Patrick appended, "Your EQ is low too."

Aria countered with a straight face, "Thank god I have low. Unlike you who uses it in favor and fools as many girls as you want, Director Morse."

Patrick squeezed his eyes shut holding his head without daring to look at Melissa. After a round of scolding, they had lunch and stayed till evening before the couple left.

Alan had bid them saying, they will visit with Vince next time when Melissa asked about it. Aria was glad they didn't ask her to reveal her maternal identity.
