Violet hesitated for a moment, her eyes slightly unsettled, and instinctively retorted, “I don’t know him!”
Patrick felt that her reaction was somewh quickly.”
strange. “You denied it too
Violet regained her composure slightly. “I just heard about him at school. After all, he was quite famous back then.”
Patrick’s eyes gleamed. “Is that so?”
Violet did not say anything. She could not admit to Patrick that she liked. that man and had been humiliated by his fiancée. It was all in the past, and those things would not have any relevance to her now.
After a moment of silence, Violet placed her design draft on Patrick’s desk. “Mr. Hersey, this is the design draft for The Dawn Jewelry Design. Competition. I’ve completed it.”
Patrick picked it up and gave it a brief look. “Not bad.”
Violet thought of Laurie and did not want to be too harsh. She asked. Patrick, “Laurie… hasn’t been caught, has she?”
Patrick furrowed his brow. “You sympathize with her?”
Judging from his expression, Violet knew he had misunderstood shook her head. “I’m not that saintly. She harmed me, and I’m not sympathize with her. My compassion doesn’t run that deep. Howev

Patrick’s eyes gleamed. “Laurie has been fired. Whether she lives or dies is none of my concern. As for the mastermind, if you insist on trusting. Gabriel, then I’ll make sure you are fully convinced. I’ll continue my thorough investigation!”
Violet spoke sincerely, “Thank you, Mr. Hersey.”
Patrick snorted. “No need. Just keep your distance from Gabriel, that will

be enough.”
Violet pursed her lip slightly, wanting to explain. However, recalling what happened at lunch, she did not know what to say. Then she remembered that Henry had used her mother’s letter to threaten her. She
subconsciously wanted to tell Patrick. After all, Henry wanted Veronica to join Foreverie Jewelry, and there was no way she could hide it from
Patrick.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, Patrick grew impatient and furrowed his brow. “Why are you still standing here? Are you waiting for me to get up and see you off?”
Violet’s breath caught in her throat, and she hesitated. She finally glanced at Patrick and said, “Mr. Hersey, I’ll take my leave.”
After Violet left, Patrick stared at the office door, tore open a mint candy, -and popped it into his mouth, his brows furrowing in annoyance. He
realized that he had been in a bad mood when dealing with Violet, and this was not a good sign. He needed to control himself.
Violet also realized that Patrick seemed to have some issues with her. In the following days, she made an effort to avoid being alone with him. In the morning, she got up early and left. In the afternoon, after work, she had dinner before returning to Hersey Court. Once she got home, she went straight to her room and stayed inside.
Patrick, too, distanced himself on purpose. Even though they lived unde the same roof, they went several days without seeing each other.
One day, Henry called, pushing for a response. “Violet, have you talked to Mr. Hersey about Veronica joining Foreverie Jewelry?” Henry was clearly growing impatient, his voice carrying a hint of annoyance.
Violet frowned as she replied, “I need to find the right opportunity to tell him about it. It’s not the right time now.”
Henry’s anger flared instantly. “What do you mean by the right time? Violet, don’t play games in front of me. Do you think delaying it will help. you get the letter from my hands? Let me tell you, even if Patrick asks for it, it’s not going to happen. If you want the letter, you do it the way I told.

you!”
Violet felt equally infuriated. “Dad, can you please be reasonable? I don’t have the audacity to arrange for my half-sister to join Foreverie Jewelry after I’ve already gotten in.”
Henry sneered. “Stop trying to talk me out of it. You’re married to Patrick, right? I refuse to believe that he would not give you face in such a small
matter!”
Violet closed her eyes briefly and replied, “Our relationship isn’t what you think.”
Henry’s voice raised as he thought of Veronica’s current situation. “I don’t care what your relationship is like. All I want is for Veronica to get into Foreverie Jewelry. I’ll give you one week, just one week. If you can’t do it by then, I’ll burn the letter!”
Henry hung up the phone abruptly, leaving Violet staring at her phone in utter dismay. She had not expected Henry to be so anxious. Why was he suddenly rushing her?
With a stern expression and full of anger, Violet returned to the design department. However, Joanna blocked her path on her way back to her seat. Violet tried moving left, but Joanna did the same. She move right, and Joanna raised her chin provocatively, moving right a
Violet, already in a terrible mood, glared at Joanna with an unple expression and a sharp tone, saying, “Move aside!”
Joanna’s face slightly changed, and she gritted her teeth, replying, “W can you do if I don’t?”
Violet’s expression grew even darker, and she stared fiercely, saying, “Just get the f uck out of my way!”
Joanna was furious that her face turned ashen, her voice seething with anger. “Violet, what are you so proud of? I’m afraid you won’t be able to win the award this time! Let me tell you, don’t be too full of yourself in life, or you might stumble!” She finished speaking and turned to leave.

Hearing her words, Violet’s eyes flickered slightly. She grabbed Joanna’s arm and fixed her with a sharp gaze, asking, “How do you know I won’t win the award this time?”
