Violet’s heart tightened. When she opened her mouth, she actually stuttered. “Mr… Mr. Hersey!”

She looked at Patrick’s expressionless handsome face and became nervous

for the first time.

Patrick walked down the stairs step by step with a calm expression. “Why aren’t you asleep?”

Violet wanted to ask about that matter, but she did not have the courage to go straight to the point. She found a tactful topic to start with. “Mr. Hersey, why did you ask me to go to The Gents in the afternoon?”

Patrick did not look at Violet. He walked over to the sofa in his robe and

sat down.

Viola had been petted by him aggressively for the past two days, but it was not afraid of him anymore.

When it saw him coming over, it looked up lazily and did not run away.

Patrick picked up Viola and looked at Violet. That’s not what you want to ask, right?”

When Patrick saw Abel’s attitude toward him today, he guessed that Abel must have said something to Violet.

After all, the Fuller family was in Summerwood City and their influence was not small. It was not surprising that they could find out something through investigations.

Violet did not expect Patrick to ask such a question.

Biting her l*p, she walked over and sat down next to Patrick on the sofa. “Did you have anything to do with the car accident this afternoon?”

Patrick chuckled. He looked at Violet with a smile that did not reach his eyes. “What do you think?”

Violet looked stunned and confused. “I don’t know either!”

Patrick looked up lazily. “No, you know. You just don’t know if you can. accept this.”

Violet’s pupils constricted as she stared straight at him. “What do you

mean by that? You already guessed that the car accident would happen this afternoon?”

Patrick had no intention of hiding anything. “Yes. Indeed, I guessed it a long time ago.”

Violet was extremely shocked. “Did you have something to do with it?”

Patrick lowered his head and scratched Violet’s head with his index finger. “I would say yes and no.”

Violet’s face fell. “Mr. Hersey, I don’t understand what you mean. Abel said that this matter has something to do with you. He also said that what you did has something to do with me. I don’t think that’s really the case!”

Patrick looked up at Violet with no intention of hiding anything. “I said yes. because of the cause and effect principle. I produced evidence of Shawn’s. corruption and facilitated the marriage of Veronica and Benedict. These matters are indeed related to me. I said no because I didn’t do anything. else!”

“Don’t you think it’s because they asked for it? The Turner family was greedy. They weighed the pros and cons, wanting to find a marriage that maximized their gains. Meanwhile, Ab bie and Veronica were wicked. They let evil thoughts fill their hearts. These are not things that others can. control!”

Violet’s l*ps moved and she struggled to speak. “Then why are the three of them the ones in trouble? Does this have anything to do with me?”

Patrick stared at Violet with an indistinguishable expression. “What do you. think?”

Violet pursed her l*ps tightly. “I don’t believe that this is all a coincidence!”

Patrick looked at Violet deeply and said directly, “Previously, Henry set you up. If I hadn’t arrived in time, you would have been ruined by

Benedict. You would have ended up just like Veronica-being cheated on and laughed at. Don’t you think so?”

Violet looked at him. “Yes, I’m grateful to you from the bottom of my heart for this matter.”

Patrick snorted. “I don’t need you to thank me. I’ve said it before. Any man who encounters such a situation won’t sit back and do nothing. Moreover, we’ve registered our marriage. And do you know what Ab bie did?”

Violet closed her eyes. She had confirmed that the car accident today was. indeed related to Patrick. It was not just Abel’s guess or fabrication.

She nodded. “At the Fuller family’s birthday party, she got someone to sp ik e the wine.”

Patrick looked at Violet mockingly. “You’re too naive. If that was the only thing she did, I wouldn’t have been so ruthless.”

Violet’s eyes narrowed. “Did she do anything else?”

A cold light flashed in Patrick’s eyes. “She found a few men to destroy you. She even prepared the equipment to film an indecent video. However, she probably didn’t expect that I would leave with you in the end. Her plan. failed!”

Violet’s eyes widened in disbelief. She had never expected this.

“Why did she do that? I didn’t offend her!” Violet had a grim look on her

face.

Patrick looked at her coldly. “Violet, don’t you think you’re getting too close to Abel?”

Violet was stunned for a moment before realization dawned on her. So

that was how it was!

Ab bie treated her as her love rival, so she wanted to…

Patrick raised his eyebrows and looked at Violet with a dark and dangerous expression. “You sympathize with her?”
