My Wife Is An All-Around Expert by Elton Joe

Chapter 147
Violet’s opening of the door startled the people in the office.
Two pairs of eyes turned toward her simultaneously.
Violet’s expression changed slightly. It was because the person kneeling on the floor was none other than Henry, who had been threatening her all
along.
Henry recognized that it was Violet. He was about to stand up, but he met Patrick’s icy and stern gaze. Henry clenched his teeth and kept his head down, not getting up.
Violet’s expression kept shifting. She walked in and closed the door behind her.
Though she couldn’t quite grasp what was going on, it was evident that Henry’s situation was somewhat related to her.
Patrick’s gaze turned to Violet as if he couldn’t see the other person in the
office.
Patrick’s expression was unreadable, making it impossible to discern his emotions. He asked Violet, “What are you here for?”
Violet glanced at Patrick, then at Henry, who was still kneeling on the floor. She didn’t answer Patrick’s question. Instead, she asked, “What’s going on here?”
Patrick’s eyes darkened. “It’s just as you see.”
Violet’s eyes flickered, and she asked straightforwardly, “Why is he kneeling to you?”
A mocking smirk appeared on Patrick’s face. “What? Do you want to plead
for him?”
Violet looked at him and said helplessly, “You’re thinking too much. I’m not that generous. At most, I’m just curious.”
Upon learning that for all these years, Henry not only hated her but also.

saw her as a thorn in
his side, using her at every turn, she had long feelings for this person.
lo
Patrick snorted and didn’t answer her question. “Assuming what you said is true, why have you come to me?”
Violet looked at him calmly and explained her purpose, saying, “I’ve come to thank you. I want to thank you for standing up for me.”
Patrick glanced at Henry kneeling on the floor and then at Violet. “Which specific incident? If you don’t make it clear, how am I supposed to know why you’re thanking me?”
Violet furrowed her brows. She knew Patrick had a sharp tongue, so she suppressed her displeasure and said. “The Willis family’s matter, Benedict and Veronica.
Patrick chuckled and replied. “It seems you do know how to appreciate a favor. Since you’ve come all this way to thank me, I’ll be generous and forgive your earlier lack of gratitude.”
Henry’s expression changed. As expected, all those incidents were orchestrated by Patrick, and he had guessed right.
Violet raised an eyebrow and looked at Patrick. She had given him an opportunity, but he still responded in such an awkward manner. She truly had nothing more to say.
She pressed her lips together and then said, “T it for tat. You have no obligation to help me. You did me a favor, and I owe you one. I’ll
remember this matter, and if you ever need my help in the future, just ask
me.
Patrick smirked playfully. He had forgotten that Violet was always clear- cut when it came to grievances.
He put on a faint smile and replied, “Not necessary.”
Violet glanced at him and did not argue with him. When Patrick really needed help, she would step in and repay this favor.

hapter!
Little did Patrick know that he would actually call upon Violet not long after making such a straightforward statement.
After Violet finished speaking, she turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, Henry suddenly called out, “Violet!”
Henry looked conflicted. He could tell that Patrick was giving Violet a face.
He realized that Veronica’s current situation was all Patrick’s doing. When Veronica’s life was saved, he came to beg Patrick.
He was self-aware enough to know he couldn’t outwit Patrick.
When Henry came, Patrick agreed to meet him. But even though Henry knelt to apologize and plead for mercy, Patrick showed no indication of leniency. Henry could only remain kneeling.
And when Violet arrived, she treated Henry as a complete stranger.
Henry had no other option but to call out to her. Once Violet left, Patrick would be even less inclined to listen to him.
Patrick glanced at Henry coldly with a displeased expression.
With a stiff resolve, Henry said, “Violet, I know I was mean and treated you poorly. But considering you’ve been with the Webb family for twenty years, please spare us. Veronica has wronged you before, and now she’s become the laughingstock of the entire Summerwood City, not to mention her legs are cri ppled. Can you say a word for us in front of Mr. Hersey and ask him to spare the Webb family? Please?”
As Henry spoke, he kneeled and lowered his head to Violet.
“I’m begging you, Violet!” His voice was filled with desperation as he pleaded.
Violet frowned deeply, her expression unpleasant. “You don’t have to do this.”
Henry was stubborn, continuously begging Violet. “Violet, it’s my fault. Please spare the Webb family!”
