Aiden: Gritting teeth You were married to my brother?! What the hell, how could you hide this from me?!
This is why I've been so distant… I was married to your brother, but it was a mistake. A stupid, regrettable mistake. Please, you have to believe me…
Believe you? No way in hell! You think I'm some kind of idiot? How could you keep this from me for so long?
I’m sorry… It was so complicated…
Complicated? Complicated?! Don't give me that bullshit! You knew how much I loved you, and yet you kept this secret from me!
Yes, yes, I’m sorry, I should’ve told you…
Throws his hands up in exasperation God, Patterson, how could you do this to me? I thought I could trust you!
I thought I could trust you too…
Storms away, fists clenched Trust? You think trust can be built on lies and deceit? I can't believe I ever trusted you, Patterson!
I follow him Aidens, please
Spins around angrily What now, Patterson? Do you have any idea how much you've hurt me? His voice trembles with rage
tears in my eyes yes, I know, and I’m so so sorry…
snarls, gritting his teeth Sorry doesn't fucking cut it, Patterson! You shattered my trust, my faith in you! How could you do this to me?
I’ll do anything to make it right
narrows his eyes, a mix of anger and hurt Anything? Then prove it. Prove that you're sorry. Prove that you're worthy of my trust.
points towards the snow-covered wilderness Go out there and find the rarest, most valuable gemstone hidden in these mountains.
Patterson embarks on a dangerous journey to find the rarest gemstone, battling harsh weather conditions and treacherous terrain.
Eyes narrow suspiciously You expect me to believe that? You think you can just go out there and find the gemstone in a snap?
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, really? Did it take you long to find it? Huh?
yes, it took me couple hours
Laughs sarcastically Couple hours? Oh, Patterson, you really have a talent for lying, don't you?
Takes the gemstone from Patterson, inspecting it closely Hmph. Fine. If you really want to prove yourself, then let's put it to the test.
smirks devilishly We're going to climb the highest peak in these mountains. And not just any climb, we're going to do it without any ropes or safety gear.
Throws his head back and laughs mockingly Ha! You really don't see what I'm getting at, do you?
Laughs sarcastically Well, aren't you eager to prove your worth? Fine, let's go. But remember, Patterson, if you even think about betraying me again, I'll leave you hanging for real.
Grabs Patterson's arm tightly, pulling them closer Let's make a deal, Patterson. If we both reach the top of that mountain safely, then I'll forgive you.
