Chapter 242
The next day.
Violet finished her breakfast and was about to go to work.
However, just as she reached the entrance to get the key, Patrick grabbed her arm. “I'll send you to work!”
Violet said coldly, “I know how to drive!”
Patrick’s tone was domineering. “In the future, you'll take my car when you go to and from work!”
Violet frowned. “Why?”
She did not have any freedom at all!!
Patrick looked at her meaningfully. “No reason, unless you want your tires to be flat every day!”
Violet was stunned. An idea flashed through her mind. She stared at Patrick in disbelief. “Were you the one who released the gas on my tires?”
Patrick did not look unnatural at all. His expression was calm. “I just want to tell you that no one can stop me from doing what | want to do, no matter what!”
Violet was shocked and conflicted. She frowned deeply.
Patrick’s eyes flickered slightly. He reached out and ruffled Violet’s hair. “So, don’t disobey me, understand?”
Violet was furious. Not to disobey him? Did he think he was the king or something?
Violet said angrily with a cold face, “I don’t understand! | don’t want to understand
either!”
Patrick did not expect her reaction. His handsome face turned slightly cold. “Violet, you said last night that no matter what | say, you won't reject me! Don’t tell me you forgot what you said so quickly!”
Violet held her breath. Was he using her words to cut her off at every corner?
Hmph. He certainly did not think twice when making demands!
Since he wanted to send her off so badly, she would fulfill his wish.
In any
case, there was a free driver. It would be a waste not to use him!
She glared at Patrick angrily, opened the door, and walked straight to Patrick’s car.
Patrick looked at her angry expression and could not help but smile. She was so cute even when she was angry!
He walked over with a smile, opened the door, and got into the car.
Violet sat in the front passenger seat with an angry expression on her face as she stared ahead.
She really did not expect Patrick to be so domineering. What was even more unexpected was that this person’s domineering personality had reached a point where it made one’s hair stand on end. He gave her car a flat tire just because he said that he wanted to send her to work.
She simply did not know what to say!
Violet was sulking when she suddenly saw Patrick approaching. The distance between the two of them instantly became extremely close.
Violet subconsciously reached out to push Patrick. “What are you doing?”
Hearing her nervous voice, Patrick was a little amused. “Putting on your seatbelt! Why? What did you think | was doing?” Patrick’s gaze was half-smiling as if he was saying he knew what she was thinking.
Violet blushed. Perhaps it was because Patrick had kissed her too often recently, so she naturally misunderstood.
Having her thoughts seen through, Violet flew into a rage out of humiliation. “You must have watched one too many idol dramas. What could | possibly be thinking? Are you going to put on the seatbelt or not?”
Patrick smiled. “Don’t worry, I'll do it right away!”
His gaze was gentle and tolerant, which she had never seen before. It made it seem like she was being unreasonable. Violet was furious.
Patrick nimbly fastened her seatbelt, retreated, and started the car.
Violet loosened her grip and her nervousness eased a little.
However, before she could calm down completely, she heard Patrick suddenly ask, “By the way, why did you go to Sunny May Hotel yesterday?”
Violet's eyes flashed as she tried her best to sound emotionless. “Catch the adulterer!”

Patrick thought of the intense scene in the hotel room last night and understood. “Were you helping Majorie?”
Skyler had also said a few words about yesterday’s incident during the meeting.
Although he didn’t say who it was, after what happened last night, Patrick could roughly. guess who it was.
Violet nodded and said in a muf fled voice, “Bob cheated on Majorie with Helen, but he
had no
was still unwilling to cancel the engagement. He said that the Queen family/
evidence to prove that he betrayed Majorie. Majoric had no choice but to do this!”
When Patrick heard this, complicated emotions emerged in his heart. “This is Majorie’s. matter. What does it have to do with you? Moreover. | heard that you hit someone in the cafe because of Majorie and got two orders canceled. Yesterday, the design. department gave you a hard time! Do you think it’s worth it?”
Patrick’s words immediately ignited the flames of anger in Violet's heart.
After all, Violet hit someone because of Rose. If Rose and Patrick didn’t have an ambiguous relationship and happened to be good friends with Helen, she wouldn’t have been so angry at that time and fought in the cafe.
She turned
round and glared at Patrick. “What do you mean by that? Don’t you think that this kind of cheating behavior is despicable? Do you think that | shouldn’t help. Majorie, or do you think that Bob’s cheating is understandable? This kind of thing is nothing to you. Do you admire this kind of behavior?”
Violet's aggressive rhetorical questions made Patrick’s expression turn ugly. “I didn’t say that | appreciate such behavior. Violet, you're a little out of control!”
Violet's chest heaved up and down slightly. She turned her head to look out of the car window with some anger in her voice. “I’m sorry. | brought too many personal. emotions into this just now. It’s not about whether it’s worth it to help Marjorie. So what if the order is gone? | can’t be bothered to help a client like Helen who has a bad character anyway!”
Patrick’s eyes flashed. He glanced at Violet. “I don’t want to ask or comment on Bob’s behavior. After all, he has nothing to do with me. However, | know very well that you don’t like such behavior. It’s obvious from what happened between Veronica and Russell!”
Back then, Violet stubbornly used her own methods to ruin Russell and Veronica’s reputation. This was enough to prove her abhorrence of such things.
Violet did not expect Patrick to say that. She turned around and looked at Patrick in surprise. “Are you serious?”
Patrick nodded. “Of course. | don’t have to lie to you. Besides, yesterday, I've already arranged for Rose’s jewelry endorsement to be canceled. The jewelry endorsement deal has already gone to someone else!”
Violet widened her eyes in shock. “Why?”
She did not expect Patrick to do this at such a fast speed!
Patrick took advantage of the red light and raised his eyebrows at her. He turned his head to look ahead and continued driving. His tone was calm, but the words he said made Violet's mood fluctuate like a roller coaster.
He said, “If she dares to cancel my wife’s order, how can | let her endorse our company’s jewelry? If she doesn’t want my wife to design jewelry for her, | don’t need her to endorse our company either!”
Patrick’s expression was calm and his posture was relaxed.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Violet opened her mouth and looked at Patrick’s handsome side profile in shock. Her expression was extremely complicated, but she did not know what to say.
There was an indescribable feeling in her heart. It was like pouring a cup of concentrated sulphuric acid into clear water, causing countless violent splashes.
He calmly defended her as if this was an insignificant matter, but it made Violet have desires that she shouldn’t have.
She thought about Patrick’s gradually gentle and domineering kiss. She thought about how he was protecting her more and more day by day. She thought about how he had helped her buckle her seatbelt affectionately just now.
She suddenly panicked. He was treating her better and better. Could it be that he was also developing a degree of love for her? f&
