My Wife Is An All-Around Expert

Megan was only just realizing that she shouldn’t have brought up this topic in front of Skyler. She looked a bit annoyed at herself. Violet didn’t seem to mind and even took the initiative to explain to Skyler, “It's Freddie’s fiancée. We met a few times back in college!”

At the mention of Freddie, Skyler’s eyes darkened a bit, but he didn’t press further. However, he remembered something else. “Violet, we're leaving for the Azure Ocean Heart Jewelry Design Competition on Friday, right?”

Violet nodded. “Yes. Any problem with that?”

Skyler shook his head, replying, “No, just heard that Freddie might be coming back that day.”

Violet's expression changed a bit, and she simply said, “Is that so?”

Seeing Violet's subdued emotions, Skyler quickly changed the subject and. talked about something else.

During the evening gathering, Violet never approached Patrick. That was because Rose Jamson had been sitting by Patrick's side, pouring him drinks, and appeared to be very considerate. Midway through the gathering, there were whispers in the villa’s hall. To everyone’s surprise, Rose, who appeared delicate and timid, had some remarkable skills to get attached to the big shot, Patrick Hersey.

Violet had talked to Patrick on the phone in the morning, knowing that the evening gathering was organized by Robert Foster. Before leaving, she went to send her greetings to the host. However, at that moment, Robert was having his intimate moments with an internet celebrity. When he sawv Violet and the others approaching, he immediately let go and instinctively glanced at Megan. Violet didn’t mind it, and Megan didn’t even notice. Robert's actions since her attention was entirely on Skyler.

Violet left, he stood up as if to leave.

Rose immediately widened her eyes, and here

softly asked. “Mr. Hersey, are you leaving?”

It was only now that she realized Patrick’s identity. After earing status, she was even more eager to get close to him.

Patrick’s expression was cold as ice, and he said indifferently, “Is it any of your concern?”

Rose immediately felt wronged and lowered her head, not daring to speak

a word.

Robert, who had always cherished the beauty and grace of a woman, observed the situation. He walked over with a smile and teased Patrick, saying, “What’s this? The young lady poured drinks for you all night, and you're just going to abandon her?” Patrick, suppressing his anger, thought of Violet’s disregard and felt increasingly frustrated. He couldn’t stand Robert's teasing and said, “Enough with the banter. In such gatherings, don’t invite me next time!” After saying that, Patrick took large strides and headed outside.

Robert slightly rubbed his nose, looking somewhat innocent. He seemed to have triggered Patrick's anger! The problem was, he had not done anything wrong!

Rose stared at Patrick’s retreating figure, appearing quite pitiful.

When Violet returned to Hersey Court, she had just stepped upstairs when she heard someone calling her from the entrance, “Violet!”

Violet turned abruptly and saw Patrick standing at the entrance. She was quite surprised. “Mr. Hersey, weren’t you still at the gathering?” She couldn't believe he had come back so soon after her.

Patrick raised his eyes, his expression as cold as water, and he ascended the stairs step by step, standing directly in front of Violet, saying, “You don’t want me to come back?”

Violet pressed her lips slightly before replying. “That was not my intention. for sure! Besides, this is your home, and | don’t have the authority to dictate otherwise!”

Patrick stared at her solemnly. “Violet, who are you trying to play games with for being sarcastic?”

Violet, slightly exasperated, replied, “Mr. Hersey, I’m just being honest!”

Patrick’s heart was burning with frustration. “Why didn’t you come to find me at the gathering tonight?”

Violet glanced at him. “Mr. Hersey, do you mind that?”

There was no way Patrick would admit to minding it, and he replied in a deep voice. “You're mistaken. | was just curious if you act differently in front of me. Weren’t you saying you had no time this morning?”Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Violet, feeling helpless, sighed. “I actually wanted to explain this, but when | saw you with a beautiful lady, | thought it wasn’t worth spoiling your

mood.

Patrick coldly chuckled. “So, according to your words, | should thank you for not bothering me?”

Violet furrowed her brow. “Mr. Hersey, it’s you who's being sarcastic, not

me.”

Patrick’s face turned extremely grim as he said, “Are you blaming me for not talking to you properly?”

Violet couldn't tell if Patrick was drunk or just being difficult, so she shook her head patiently. “No!”

Patrick coldly looked at her. “I know you are not. You're so engrossed in your lively chat with Gabriel that you don’t care about anyone else’s.

feelings.”

Violet raised her head, not understanding why Patrick suddenly brought up this issue. Seeing Patrick was in a bad mood, she tried to be conciliatory. “Mr. Hersey, | was just chatting casually with Gabriel!”

Patrick sneered, his tone dripping with sarcasm. “Casual not aware of when you became such good friends w can chat anytime, anywhere!” As he spoke, he tool his head so that his face was just inches away fro tell you to keep your distance from him?” Unable to bear the oppressive feeling, Violet took a step back. However, this time, she didn’t promise Patrick to maintain her distance from Gabriel. She calmly replied, “Mr. Hersey, | can’t follow your orders on this.

Gabriel and | are friends.

Patrick’s pupils contracted instantly. He hadn’t expected Violet to admit. that she and Gabriel were friends. His handsome face turned an angry shade, and his tone became extremely domineering. “How come | didn’t know when you became friends with him?”

Violet tightly pursed her lips, raising her head to look at Patrick, her expression now a bit displeased. “Just in the past couple of days! Mr. Hersey, if you don’t have any other business, I'll go to bed.” She finished speaking and turned to leave.

Patrick’s anger instantly reached its peak, and he forcefully pulled Violet back, pressing her against the wall. Violet furrowed her brows and tried to push him away, her voice filled with anger as she called his name, “Patrick Hersey. What do you want?”

Seeing Violet's angry expression, Patrick had only one thought moment, it was to make her stop talking. He gazed at her rosy lips, hist eyes slightly darkening, and without any hesitation, he leaned down and kissed her dominantly.

He grabbed Violet's struggling hands, imprisoning them above her head, and wrapped his other hand around her waist, pinning her against the wall, not allowing her to escape.

Violet could not break free, and her eyes turned red with anger.

Patrick continued his domineering advance, completely enveloping

Violet.

Violet's body went limp, her face flushed with anger. Unable to bear it any longer, she fiercely bit his mouth.

Patrick’s mind instantly cleared up. He was taken aback, a flash of panic in his eyes, and he released Violet.

Just as he let go, Violet slapped him and said, “Mr. Hersey, | respect you, and | hope you can respect yourself!”

Patrick reached up to rub his face, his tongue briefly touching the inner wall of his mouth. He gazed intensely at Violet, his eyes carrying a suppressed intensity, and he said, “Before we got married, we agreed to fulfill the marital contract!”

Violet's face turned red with anger, and there was a profound sense of injustice in her eyes. She said, “That's different. At the very least, we should be willing! Were you trying to force yourself on me just now?”

Seeing Violet's restrained anger and the pitiful look on her face, the fire in Patrick’s heart suddenly subsided.

He thought about how he had acted under the influence of alcohol. Since when did he, Patrick, need to force himself on a woman?

Violet did not expect that the and Patrick were only husband and wife in narne yet were now giving each other the sent treatment. However she had to admit that she did not feel good.

On the second day of the gathering intimate photos of Rose and a certa rich young lad were posted online. The photo of Patrick was not very clear, and most people would not be able to recognize him but Rose’s face was very clear. It appeared as if they were at the entrance of the villa where they had gathered.

Patrick seemed to be drunk and Rose was struggling to support him

When Violet saw the photos, she could not help but feel a faint sense of discomfort. Her thought was that after Patrick left last night, he had returned to the gathering

The next day. Rose received an A-list endorsement. This seemed to confirm her relationship with Patrick.

The day before Violet left for Azure City: Gabriel sent her WhatsApp

messages.

Gabriel texted, [Vivi, you're not honest. You promised to treat me to a meal to repay me for saving your life. Why is there no news after two days?!]
