Chapter 250

Hearing Patrick’s cold and slightly angry words, Robert’s eyebrows twitched. He thought to himself, ‘It’s definitely going to be bad!’

As expected, Violet suddenly raised her head. Disbelief flashed across her eyes as she looked at Patrick coldly. The corners of her mouth were pursed tightly, and she looked like she wanted to fight him head-on.

Robert could not bear to look at her and shook his head.

Violet asked coldly, “Excuse me, Mr. Hersey? What’s your relationship with me?”

Patrick choked. He was silent for a moment before saying bluntly, “Husband and wife!”

Violet had a mocking expression on her face. “We signed a one-year marriage. agreement. We look united, but we’re not. Do you mean the kind of husband and wife with no feelings for each other?”

Patrick’s handsome face was tense and his expression was a little ugly. “Violet, can’t we talk in private?”

Did she have to say these things in front of Megan and Robert?

Violet glanced at Patrick. That glance made Patrick feel inexplicably flustered.

She said, “Mr. Hersey, you were the one who got angry at me first. Although we’re now husband and wife by agreement, I’m not obligated to tolerate your bad temper. I call. you Mr. Hersey during work hours and Mr. Hersey in private at your request. It’s working hours now. Is it wrong for me to call you Mr. Hersey? Mr. Hersey, is it wrong for me to follow your orders? Was it wrong of me to say, ‘You’re here’? That must be the trigger, huh? Or rather, the most fundamental reason is that you don’t like me to begin with!”

Patrick was so angry that he wanted to cough blood. He felt aggrieved and frustrated, but he did not want to admit defeat like this.

He regretted it now. He shouldn’t have let Violet call him that. Every time he heard it, it was ear-piercing. It was simply shooting himself in the foot!

He looked at Violet steadily and suppressed the surging emotions in his heart. “Can we talk outside?”

Robert quickly tried to smooth things over. He smiled and said, “Uh huh. If there’s anything to settle, the two of you can go out and do it. Meggy just woke up. If you quarrel in her ward, she will be affected too!”

Violet was stunned and immediately looked at Megan.

Megan looked at her worriedly. Her face was as pale as paper.

Violet immediately looked extremely guilty.

She was really angry just now and did not think too much about it.

Megan’s eyes flashed and she said calmly, “I’m fine, Violet. But… if you have anything to say, then do it calmly, okay?”

Violet nodded and glanced at Patrick. “Let’s talk outside!”

After exiting the elevator, Violet walked in front. She only stopped when she reached. the lawn below the hospital.

She turned her back to Patrick and did not turn around. She tried her best to make her tone cold but polite. “Mr. Hersey, work is starting soon. You can go back!”

Patrick’s eyebrows twitched. “Violet, do you have to talk to me like this?”

Violet seemed to be able to feel Patrick’s gaze on her back. It was so real.

She turned to look at Patrick and said calmly, “Mr. Hersey, this is how we spoke from the beginning!”

Patrick looked at Violet solemnly. He finally understood that Violet was determined to talk to him like this.

He suddenly laughed out loud, coldly and sarcastically. “We still have 10 months as a married couple. Are you sure you want to keep doing this?”

Violet frowned. Her slightly sweaty palm betrayed her calm expression.

She hid her nervousness and said to Patrick, “It was like this from the beginning. We’re fine now, right?”

Patrick could not suppress the anger in his heart. He stared at Violet and his handsome. face was extremely tense. “Violet, I’ll take it that you’re in a bad mood today. Enough is enough!”

In the end, he endured it.

He didn’t want to quarrel with her. They didn’t have any feelings for each other to begin with, so they couldn’t afford to exhaust each other by arguing!

He closed his eyes and opened them again. His expression had calmed down. “You said. on the phone that you wanted to hold Ellie accountable for her actions to Megan. Do

you need my help?”

Violet did not expect Patrick to not be angry when she spoke so coldly.

At this moment, she could not explain how she felt.

She looked at Patrick and asked, “Why? Are you going to help me?”

Patrick’s expression was obscure. He opened his thin l*ps slightly and said, “As long as you ask!”

Violet made up her mind and stayed on course. She shook her head and said, “No need. I’ll do as I see fit!”

Patrick instantly clenched his fists tightly.

He tried his best to control his emotions. His eyes darkened as he looked at Violet without saying anything.

Violet pursed her l*ps. “That’s all. Mr. Hersey, go back to work. I’m going upstairs!”

Violet left after saying that.

Patrick looked at her back view without any reluctance. He stood there like a stone statue and did not move.

He was too conceited. He thought that nothing would go wrong in this contract marriage for a short year.

Unexpectedly, he had lost to Violet in just two months.

When Violet went upstairs, Patrick was already gone. She leaned against the corridor wall and slowly closed her eyes.

In the ward.

As Robert peeled the apple, he said to Megan tentatively, “Meggy, look, you’re so amazing. You can earn a year’s worth of living expenses just by doing anything. Why don’t we resign? Working at Foreverie Jewelry is too boring!”

Megan looked up at him. “You want me to stay away from Skyler, right?”

Robert’s thoughts were seen through. He could not help but laugh dryly. “I’m just afraid that you’ll be bullied again!”

Megan’s expression was indifferent. “Thank you for your concern, but I’m not that cowardly. Today was just an accident. Moreover, since I’ve let go of him, I have to face this matter directly. Don’t tell me that you don’t believe me and that I’ll still be deeply.

in love with him and pester him!”

Robert quickly shook his head. “No, no, I definitely didn’t think that way!”

Megan knew that Robert was just concerned about her. There was no need for her to be

so serious.

She thought for a moment and tried her best to soften her tone. “Robert, I’ve never been so clear-headed before. I’ve really let go. However, if I resign now, it would seem like I’m guilty. Don’t worry, I won’t have any extravagant hopes for him anymore!”

Robert’s eyes flickered as he casually added, “You can have some for me!”

Megan looked at him coldly.

Robert felt uncomfortable under her gaze. He could not help but laugh dryly. “Love itself is not wrong. It’s just that the person you met is wrong. You don’t have to deny love just because of one person!”

After saying that, Robert looked at Megan expectantly.

Megan said bluntly, “I’m not denying love. I’m just talking about my personal thoughts and decisions!”

Robert was absent-mindedly peeling an apple. Suddenly, he accidentally cut his finger.

Robert exclaimed and stood up.

Megan’s expression changed slightly. “Hurry up and get the doctor to bandage you up!”

Seeing how anxious she was, Robert immediately smiled. “It’s okay, Meggy. It doesn’t hurt!”

Megan frowned and looked at him without saying anything.

Robert curled his l*ps and said, “I know that you don’t want to talk about feelings now, but I have something to say. We were initially not fated to be together. It’s all thanks to my harassing! Ever since our arms were hurt and we had neighboring wards, I…”
