Rose was so frightened that he lost his soul and fell into Patrick’s arms.

Patrick’s expression darkened as he watched, unable to stand by while a person was hit by a car right in front of him. Despite his ruthless methods, he couldn’t simply stand idly by.

The car had crashed into a stone pillar in front of Quendar Restaurant, with half of it crumpled in. The driver’s forchead was resting on the steering wheel, blood streaming down.

Patrick let go of Rose and said, “Don’t lean on me!”

Rose’s body went weak. She staggered and quickly held onto the wall beside her.

Patrick made a cold call to Nelson Massy, “I’ve got an issue at Quendar Restaurant. Please check if it’s an accident or if someone intended it.”

Nelson Massy’s voice was scrious. “Alright, I’ll investigate what happened immediately!”

After hanging up the call, he cast a stern look at Rose and said, “Rose, I’m warning you again. If you don’t want to be shut out, keep your distance from me.”

Rose’s lips trembled slightly as she said, “I understand that. Thank you for saving me just now, Mr. Hersey!”

Patrick did not even look at her, and everyone thought that what had happened just now was an accident.

After Patrick’s car arrived, he drove away.

Upon returning home, Patrick found Violet seated in the dimly lit living room.

Viola quietly nestled by her side, seeming to sense that its owner’s mood was not good today. It was exceptionally quiet and obedient.

Patrick changed his shoes, took off his coat, loosened his tie, and glanced at Violet. “What are you doing sitting in the living room?” he asked,

He smiled and walked over to sit down.

He was so absorbed in the subtle emotional changes between him and Violet that he didn’t notice anything amiss with her.

However, as soon as he sat down, Violet frowned at him. “Did you drink tonight?” she asked.
