Chapter 266
Violet's expression changed. She raised her voice and interrupted him. “Russell, that’s enough! What are you trying to do? I’m just out for a meal with Skyler. Don’t think too much. Also, my business has nothing to do with you anymore. Don’t make any wild guesses!”
Russell stared at Violet. His mind had also calmed down. If he continued to talk about Patrick behind his back, he knew that Patrick's methods would not end well for him.
So his expression changed again and again when he thought of this.
Violet grabbed Freddie’s arm and they quickly walked out.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
She did not want more people to know about her secret marriage with Patrick. After all, they only had a one-year agreement. She didn’t want her life to change too much after the divorce.
Russell looked at Violet's back with an indignant expression.
He admitted that he was a scu mbag who had failed her!
He also admitted that he bullied the weak and feared the strong. He did not dare to sna tch Violet from Patrick..
However, there was one fact that no one could change. He liked Violet and had always. liked her.
Otherwise, he would not have pursued her for so long to be with her.
However, he could not continue. The only thing that bothered him in this relationship. was that Violet had never loved him. When one fell in love with someone, the affection could be seen in one’s eyes.
However, there had never been love in Violet's eyes for him. Hence, he allowed himself to be with Veronica in the end.
It could be said that this was an excuse for him to betray Violet, but it was also a fact that made him feel like he had a fishbone stuck in his throat.
At the same time, at the old residence of the Stanton family, Patrick calmly accompanied his family to eat.
Siran was talking to Riley's mother. She smiled and said to Patrick, “P addy, accompany Riley to talk a walk in the garden. You young people probably won't be interested in chatting with us!”

Siran usually let Patrick do whatever he wanted, except for marriage.
Even if his marriage was just settled down like Freddie’s, that would be good!

Patrick knew in his heart that if he did not show an attitude today, he would probably have to participate in countless blind dates in the future!
It would be fine if he didn’t have someone he liked!
However, he had someone he liked now. Moreover, they had already registered their marriage. He did not want his family to become his obstacle.
At the thought of this, he looked at Siran expressionlessly. “Mother, | know you want me to go on a blind date with Riley, but don’t waste your effort on my marriage. No matter who comes, | won't marry them. | already have someone | like!”
When Patrick said this, Riley and Mary's expressions immediately changed!
What Patrick said was equivalent to embarrassing them.
Mary said angrily, “Mrs. Stanton, it looks like our family is out of our league. Since your son has someone he likes, you shouldn't have agreed to let me bring Riley over. Although our family is out of our league, we still care about our reputation!”
Siran’s expression was ugly as she apologized to Mary, “I’m sorry, | didn’t teach my son well. I'll give you an explanation!” After saying that, she stood up angrily and looked at Patrick. Her attitude was unprecedentedly tough. “Patrick, you’re talking about Gloria, right? Wendy is already your brother’s fiancée. | don’t want both my sons to marry the Tyler family’s daughters!” This was the first time her son did not give her face in front of outsiders. Siran was furious and directly said the name Gloria. Patrick shook his head silently. “Mom, you're thinking too much. I’m not talking about Gloria. When the time is right, I’ll bring my girlfriend home to see you. You don’t have to go through so much trouble to help me go on blind dates! | hope this is the last time!”
Siran was stunned. “It’s not Gloria?”
Patrick shook his head. “No!”
Siran looked at Patrick skeptically. In fact, she was not satisfied with Riley either, especially with her status as a celebrity. She often appeared in public.
Moreover, Riley’s mother was a distant relative of the Anne family, and she had the

same surname. This made Siran a little uncomfortable.
However, her husband said that if they did not like it, her son might not dislike it.
That was why she agreed to this blind date under the guise of having a meal.
In the end, she was a little anxious. It was not easy for her son to break up with Gloria, so she wanted to give it a try. Fortunately, the Anne family’s background was not bad.
Who knew that her son would have a girlfriend so quickly?
Siran stared at Patrick. “You really didn’t lie to Mom?”
Patrick shook his head. “No!”
Siran finally heaved a sigh of relief. Her aggressive expression immediately softened.
She smiled and turned to look at Mary with a smile in her eyes. “I’m sorry, Mary. | didn’t know that my son already had a girlfriend. Look at the blunder today. Just treat it as bringing Riley to our house and having a meal together, okay?”
As the saying went, one shouldn’t slap a smiling face. Moreover, Siran was Mrs. Hersey.
Even if Mary was angered to death, she couldn’t really lose her temper.
She suppressed the anger in her heart and her expression stiffened. In the end, her tone was filled with disdain. “Since Mrs. Stanton has already said so, if | don’t show mercy, wouldn't it seem like | don’t know how to appreciate kindness? Thank you for your hospitality today. Riley and | will leave first!”
Siran smiled. “Then I'll show you to the door!”
When Siran returned from outside, she saw Patrick sitting on the sofa gloomily. He was in a bad mood.
She couldn't help frowning. “Pa ddy, I’ve already helped you send them away. What are you unhappy about?”
Patrick glanced at his mother and did not say anything.
He was in a bad mood not because of Riley and her mother, but because of the fight with Violet today.
Actually, it was more like he was unilaterally uncomfortable.
Violet said she was going to have a meal with Skyler. And she did!
Patrick suddenly thought of something and froze.

Could it be that the person eating this time was the same person as the last time at the Dioger Restaurant?!
At the thought of this. Patrick’s expression changed.
He grabbed his car keys and quickly walked out. “Mom, | still have something on. I'll leave first!”
Siran’s expression changed and she said resentfully, “Pad dy, are you leaving now? Aren't you going to sit with me for a while?” Patrick stopped in his tracks and looked at his mother. “I'll come back often when | have
time!”
Siran knew that her son was going to leave, so she could only say helplessly, “Then when are you going to bring your girlfriend home and let me have a look? As long as she’s sensible, | won’t make things difficult for her!”
Patrick changed his shoes and was silent for a second. “Let's wait until it is the right time!”
With that, Patrick pulled open the door and left.
Violet had just reached Hersey Court when Patrick called.
She was a little surprised. Patrick had just gotten angry before eating, and now he was calling her. This was a little unlike him! Violet answered the call and heard Patrick ask coldly, “Have you finished your dinner with Skyler?”
Violet frowned and said coldly, “I’ve already returned to Hersey Court!”
Patrick said in a deep voice, “Is the person who ate with you today the same person as the last time at Dioger Restaurant?” Violet was stunned. She panicked a little and lied almost subconsciously. “No!”
