Violet handed her phone over, saying, “Take a look. It’s in the news. It even says that although there weren’t any serious injuries, they targeted the most crucial areas. The kind of places that will ache for ten days or half a month!”

Patrick’s eyes flickered, his voice devoid of any emotion. “Is that so? Well, that’s good. People like them deserve it.”

Violet thought about the beating she received from Claudia and nodded with a smile. She said, “I also think it’s like the heavens intervening to rid the world of evil!”

Patrick made a sound of agreement and leaned back on the sofa. His expression was inscrutable. It seemed like he was lost in thought.

Violet’s eyes darted around. Suddenly, she said, “Patrick, could it be that you were behind this?”

Patrick was taken aback, his gaze snapping toward Violet. “Don’t make wild guesses. Why would I do something like that?”

Violet looked at Patrick. She was partly believing and partly doubting. “I just feel like this style of doing something so ruthless and satisfying is too similar to yours. If it’s not you, then forget it!”

Patrick was momentarily stunned. He thought Violet might be angry, thinking he had. overstepped.

He hadn’t expected her to think this way.

After all, he had arranged for someone to teach that couple a lesson for Violet’s sake. Ast long as Violet was happy, that was all that mattered.

Just as Patrick was pondering this, he suddenly saw Violet turn her head and say with a smile, “It must have been you. I don’t believe your nonsense!”

After saying this, Violet immediately turned around to watch TV.

Patrick couldn’t help but smile. His gaze was affectionate. This little woman must have figured it out from the very beginning and had been pretending to tease him.

The show “Beauty Lovers Gang” began. Violet sat up straight and was eager to watch.

This was her first time appearing on a TV show. It was a moment worth commemorating!

However, as Violet watched the show, her expression started to change.

Chapter 302

Why did every cl*p of her and Rose involve them arguing?

44%

Especially when Rose suggested she add a water droplet design. Violet couldn’t take it anymore. When Rose insisted on giving input despite not understanding the design, turning the design into a mess, Violet’s expression finally showed a hint of displeasure.

The editing was obviously biased. It was all focused on her conflict with Rose. But the scenes where Rose asked foolish questions were condensed into just a sentence.

It seemed like every time Rose spoke, Violet couldn’t help but get angry.

What was even more infuriating was that during Violet’s outburst, the show’s team had added cute captions, making her seem really fierce!

Violet was furious as she watched.

However, before the show finished airing, Megan called.

Her voice was unusually cold. “Violet, what’s going on? Did you offend someone? The editing is clearly targeting you!”

Violet’s expression soured. “I don’t know either. I got along fine with the production team, and besides, I had a reason to be critical of Rose. She didn’t understand the design and gave random and unhelpful suggestions!”

At this point, Patrick’s expression wasn’t great either. He had noticed the same issues that Violet had.

Moreover, Rose had told him carlier that someone from the production team was targeting Violet and had even sabotaged her work.

His expression grew even more displeased.

Patrick saw that Violet was making a call. He picked up his phone and planned to call the show planner, Judith.

Seeing Patrick pick up his phone and head toward the balcony, Violet didn’t pay much attention, continuing her conversation with Megan.

Megan was typically cool–headed, but this incident had clearly angered her.

She said, “First, figure out what’s going on. If it’s not working out, don’t participate in the second episode of this show!”

Violet’s brows furrowed deeply. “But I’ve already signed a two–month contract!”

On the balcony, just as Judith answered the call, Patrick’s voice turned stern. “Judith, you better give me an explanation. Is this TV show deliberately targeting designers

from our company?”

44%%%

Judith’s voice was filled with regret. “Mr. Hersey, it’s not like that. Please let me explain. The reason the production team did this was to create some buzz to grab people’s attention. If the show doesn’t have enough buzz, your investment sponsorship will go down the drain!”

Patrick’s brows furrowed harshly, his voice icy. “Even if the money goes down the drain, I won’t allow the designers from my company to be smeared. Judith, you’d better find a way to handle this, or else I’ll withdraw my investment tomorrow!”

Judith sounded somewhat hesitant. “Mr. Hersey, I showed you the proposal before. The celebrities we invited all have their popularity. But the designers don’t have much popularity, except for Violet, who is known as a genius jewelry designer, and her previous lawsuit with Veronica has some heat. I was planning to use this as a topic to hype up the show.”

Judith continued, “However, later

along quite well. They simply can, I found that Violet and Veronica unexpectedly get

be provoked to fight. On the other hand, Rose and Violet have more potential for conflict. So, we either highlight Rose’s ignorance and foolishness or emphasize Violet’s sternness. Otherwise, we won’t have anything to edit. We make the show for the sake of generating buzz. You can’t blame me!”

Patrick was so angry that he clenched his phone. He now regretted letting Violet participate in this show. What nonsense!

To think they would target Violet and play these petty tricks behind his back!

He directly asked, “Then why not highlight Rose’s stupidity and ignorance? Do you think she’s not ignorant and stupid enough?”

Judith was stunned. “Mr. Hersey, Rose… isn’t Rose your girlfriend?”

If it weren’t for the rumors about Rose and Patrick, which Patrick had never denied, they wouldn’t have dared to do this!

Patrick’s brows furrowed fiercely, his tone dripping with cold sarcasm. “Who told your she’s my girlfriend? Did she declare herself as such? Judith, do you even have a brain? Do you actually believe those rumors online? With your judgment, you shouldn’t be a planner!”

Judith was somewhat dumbfounded. It took her a while to speak, her tone strained. “Even if… even if Rose isn’t your girlfriend, she’s still a major celebrity, and we’ve signed. contracts with her. If we edit the show this way, it will ruin her public image and cause significant financial losses. We’ll have to compensate!”

Patrick’s voice was ominous. “Then compensate. I’ll give you one day. You’d better find a

way to

turn this situation around for me. Otherwise, don’t expect your show to continue, and your company won’t be able to carry on either!”

Patrick issued his final warning and promptly hung up the phone.

To dare to bully Violet like this, he was determined to teach these people a lesson!

After ending the call, Patrick immediately instructed Nelson to withdraw funding from the show.

As soon as Patrick returned to the living room, he found Violet staring blankly at her phone. Her expression was extremely unpleasant and grim.

Patrick walked over quickly and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Violet glanced at Patrick, her voice sounding somewhat distressed. “I’m trending on the hot search.”
