Chapter 36 

The moment Patrick heard Steven mentioning ‘the darkroom, a chill went down Patrick‘s spine. Steven, please. Don‘t do that to me. I admit that it‘s my fault, okay? If I leave, who‘s going to take care of Mrs. Faulkner? 

“There are many housekeepers in Swallow Garden. We don‘t need you to tend to Mrs. Faulkner!” 

Patrick was then at a loss for words 

Noticing the temper rising in Steven as if he wanted to punish Patrick heavily, Genevieve spoke up hastily. “What happened this time isn’t entirely Patrick‘s fault. It‘s the opponent that‘s too cunning. Giving Patrick a scolding should suffice.” 

If it were not for Patrick hacking into Erica‘s phone and unearthing all that information, it would have been impossible for Genevieve to exact vengeance. If anything, I should be thanking Patrick. 

When Steven heard Genevieve‘s plea, his mood improved slightly. He then shot a glare at Patrick “Hurry up and thank Mrs. Faulkner!” 

“Thank you. Mrs. Faulkner. You saved me.” Patrick wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Otherwise, you‘ll find only my corpse in the darkroom once my sentence is up.” 

Genevieve could not help but burst out in laughter at Patrick‘s joke. 

After a short conversation, Genevieve noticed that it was getting very late. She sent the men off to rest, then went up the stairs herself. Guess I‘ve overthinked things.
