Patrick’s voice was extremely deep. “You mean, from the beginning to the end, it was always Gloria who instructed them to go against Violet!”

Although Nelson was certain, he still gave a vague answer. “Mr. Hersey, that’s all I suspect at the moment. Based on so many coincidences, Gloria is the biggest suspect!”

Patrick and Gloria were a couple before. Morcover, they had been together for a few years. Nelson was not sure of Patrick’s attitude towards Gloria.

Patrick’s expression was especially ill. “Then why didn’t you find out the relationship between Ellie and Gloria?”

Nelson was a little helpless. “Sorry. First, I didn’t expect them to be in contact at all. After all, they didn’t talk much when they were in the company. And also, they did it in secret. In addition, Ellie has escaped from the country. It was very difficult for me to find out what happened previously. If Rebecca hadn’t died for a month and Ellie’s whereabouts weren’t exposed, they would have thought that this matter was over. So Ellie went to see Gloria. Or I wouldn’t have found it out.”

Patrick slowly closed his eyes and leaned against the office chair. His voice was a little emotionless. “I got it!”

Nelson hesitated for a second before asking, “What should we do next?”

Patrick was silent for a moment before saying, “Don’t worry about this for now. I’ll handle it!”

With that, Patrick hung up.

He spun the phone in his hand a few times before lowering his eyes. He removed Gloria’s name from the blacklist and dialed her number.

The call was picked up almost as soon as it went through.

Gloria’s voice was filled with unprecedented joy. “Patrick! You finally called me. I thought you would ignore me for the rest of life!”

Patrick’s voice was cold. “You’re right. If possible, I really want to ignore you for the rest. of my life!”

Gloria choked. Her voice was a little stumbling. “What? Patrick, don’t say that. I feel terrible. It’s all my fault. I understand we’ve known each other for so many years. Even if we can’t be lovers, we can still be

friends!”

Patrick said sarcastically, “Friends? Are you serious? Do you want to be friends with me?”

Gloria finally sensed that something was wrong. Patrick did not call because he was not angry with her.

She hesitated for two seconds. “Patrick, what’s wrong?”

Patrick’s voice was calm as if he was telling a story. “Gloria, I remember that your family has a close relationship with the Collins family. Am I right?”

Gloria’s voice instantly became nervous. “Patrick… You… Why did you suddenly talk about that?”

Patrick did not intend to beat around the bush. He said directly, “It’s not that I suddenly remembered it. I got enlightened after learning about your connection with Ellie. You were the one who arranged for Ellie to escape, right? Rebecca was a smart aleck and became Violet’s scapegoat. The person who was supposed to be killed with VX should be Violet!”

Gloria’s voice was nervous and afraid. “Patrick, it’s not like that. I can explain! Please!”

Patrick interrupted her right away and calmly said, “You don’t have to explain. It’s Jenson, right? You and Jenson were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. Later, he became a soldier. His family has some connections so his current position shouldn’t be low. Moreover, I remember that the two of you are very close! A nerve agent like VX is only used in the military. Ordinary people can’t get it at all!

“If there’s anyone who can get you a dose of VX, I can’t think of anyone else other than Jenson. Moreover, there’s also someone who’s putting pressure on Seth to be the scapegoat and end this case as soon as possible. I think this should have something to do with the Collins family. After all, their power in this area can’t be underestimated. I’ve been too careless before, right?”

Gloria’s voice was trembling. She did not expect that just because of Ellie, Patrick would directly contact her and figure out the entire sequence of events.

She was shocked and afraid. She lost control of her emotions. “Patrick, this is just your guess. It’s not true and it’s not a fact! It means nothing. Don’t try to slander me!”

Patrick’s voice was extremely gloomy. “Gloria, I’m not slandering you. I’ve been trying to be nice previously because we were together after all. However, since you are so silly. and ungrateful, I won’t stand on ceremony!”

Gloria did not expect that after being together for a few years, Patrick would be so rude to her.

She also lost her temper and suppressed her anger. “What do you want? Don’t tell me

you want to convict the Collins family based on this matter. Or, what do you want to do to me? Kill me? Just come on! Welcome!”

If Patrick had known that Gloria had such an intractable personality, she might have struggled when there was still a chance. But when the truth came out, she would most likely get mad and ruin everything.

His eyes darkened and his tone was cold. “You’re the mastermind behind it, then you’re the main culprit. Why should I go to the Collins family? Of course, if they provoke me, I won’t be polite. Don’t think that you’re overseas now and it’s safe for you. Gloria, don’t forget that your family are all still here!”

Gloria’s breathing instantly seemed to be frozen.

She took two deep breaths with difficulty before speaking. Her voice was hoarse and angry. “Patrick, why are you pushing me like this? I sacrificed my innocence for your company. Violet isn’t dead yet. What are you doing? Why don’t you let me go? Do you want me to pay with my life? And do you even want to vent your anger on my family?”

When Patrick heard Gloria talk about the past, he frowned fiercely.

If not for the fact that the company had just been in its infancy and Gloria had sacrificed herself for the company, he would not have been so tolerant of her.

Morcover, if this matter blew up, Violet would definitely know about his relationship with Gloria. These were not what he wanted to see.

At the thought of this, he took a deep breath and said in a deep and cold voice, “Gloria, let’s stop here. I repeat it again: I don’t like you. I didn’t like you in the past, I don’t like you now, and I won’t like you in the future. Remember it! You know very well why I was with you all these years!”

Gloria’s breathing stiffened. She burst into tears on the other end of the phone. “What? Patrick! How can you treat me like this? How could you? You’re heartless!”

Although she knew that Patrick did not like her all the time, her heart still felt hurt terribly when Patrick said it so bluntly. It was as if it had been torn into pieces.

She roared and cried angrily, “Why are you so cruel? Even if you want to kill me, I will kill Violet. She’s a b*tch! It’s her. It’s all because of her! If it weren’t for her, have said these things to me!”

Patrick’s voice was terrifyingly cold. “Gloria Tyler!”

you wouldn’t

When he heard Gloria scolding Violet, Patrick wished he could show before her immediately and chop her into pieces.
