You Looked Down on Me Once Now You Look Up (Patricia and Oliver) novel Chapter 460

As soon as Oliver finished talking, his phone buzzed. He glanced at the screen, then handed it to Patricia.

“Sky Lounge bill: eighty-five thousand.”

Patricia just stared at the message, lost for words.

“You know what Sky Lounge is, right?” Oliver asked.

How could she not? Her phone had been blowing up with ads for weeks about that place—a brand new, super exclusive club in Riverdale, packed with foreign male models. The whole vibe was all about rich women living it up, being spoiled and having the time of their lives.

Sara had hyped it up to Patricia more than once, saying the guys there were all drop-dead gorgeous and knew exactly how to treat a lady.

Colton was about to head off for basic training, so Oliver—being unusually generous—let the three of them off the leash for the night. He even handed over his unlimited black card.

Sara wasted no time. She grabbed Colton and Roger, and the three of them hit the club.

Inside, Sara was already wrapped around a model’s waist, dancing like she owned the place. Colton and Roger sat at the bar, drinks in hand, watching her go wild.

“Remind me,” Colton said, propping his chin on his fist, “who’s supposed to be leaving soon? Wasn’t it me?”

Roger nodded, dead serious. “It’s definitely you.”

“So why does it feel like this is Sara’s party? Shouldn’t someone be celebrating me?”

They’d only been there a few minutes, and already a couple of women had mistaken them for models and tried to flirt. Meanwhile, Sara looked like she was having the time of her life.

Roger gave Colton a sympathetic pat on the shoulder. “Just let her have her fun. She’s still a kid.”

Colton shot him a look. Everyone in the Padilla family knew Sara was trouble—wild, unpredictable, and always up for a good time. But Patricia and Roger? They were the only ones who actually believed she was just misunderstood.

“If you ask me, Patricia was too nice. Why go after the Newtons first? She should’ve gone straight for Ruby’s family.”

“What, did the Martins do something to you?”

The woman took a sip of her drink. “You don’t even know. Back in high school, I said Ruby didn’t look as good in her dress as Patricia, and Ruby never let it go. I’ve got a kid now, and she still remembered—at their last riverside house party, she threw it in my face.”

“It’s hilarious. Everybody knows everything Ruby has now, she stole from Patricia.”

“Oh, and did you guys know? Back when she was with Theo, she was also hooking up with some white guy.”

Sara’s gossip radar kicked in instantly. Breathless from dancing, she squeezed in next to Colton, eyes wide. “Wait, which white guy? When did that happen? How come I never heard about this?”

The group went quiet, giving Sara a skeptical once-over. “And you are…?”
