Chapter 13

Russell was frozen in place, not believing what he had seen.

Violet turned around abruptly and saw Patrick’s handsome face magnified in front of her. She was so shocked that she couldn’t utter a word, and all she could hear was Patrick’s voice, which was so pleasing to the ears that it could make any woman in this world fall in love with him.

Patrick raised an eyebrow and glanced at her indifferently. “What? Why are you looking at me like that?”

Violet immediately snapped out of her daze, her voice dropping an octave as she stuttered, “Um… I… I’m… Wh–Why did you come here?”

She completely lost the arrogant and domineering demeanor she had in front of Russell a moment ago, and in an instant, she turned into a timid little bunny. Patrick found her facial expression amusing. He asked in a casual tone of voice, “Why can’t I come here?”

Violet pouted her cheeks, realizing she couldn’t argue with him.

Russell looked at Patrick, completely dumbfounded. His facial expression changed multiple times before he managed to squeeze out a sentence. “Mr. Hersey, why did you come here?”

Patrick lifted his gaze and coldly replied, “I heard you were planning to sue the jewelry designer of our Foreverie Jewelry. I think it’s quite necessary for me to come here. What do you think?”

Russell forced a smile, his face stiff as he replied, “How… How could that be? Violet… Um… She works for Oceanen Jewelry…”

Before Russell could finish his sentence, Patrick ruthlessly interrupted him, “From this moment on, she works for Foreverie Jewelry!”

Russell wanted to argue, “But she…”

Patrick’s expression turned cold in an instant, showing impatience. “I said! She works for Foreverie Jewelry!”

Russell’s expression became extremely dark. He glanced at Violet standing next to Patrick and clearly saw a gloating look in her eyes.

In an instant, Russell realized the reason why yesterday afternoon when he and Veronica tricked Violet into going out to eat, they encountered Patrick. At this moment, he understood everything. His current situation was all designed by Violet. She and Patrick had known each other for a long time!
