Upon hearing Abel’s words, Abbic sprang from the sofa and said, “You mean that Eleanor used me to hurt Violet? Was she lying


    about you liking Violet? She liked Patrick herself, but Patrick admired Violet’s ability. She treated Violet as an imaginary enemy


    but didn’t do it herself. She only used me to deal with Violet?”


    Abb ie knew that Eleanor liked Patrick.


    However, Ab bie never thought that Eleanor would use her.


    Abel looked at Ab bie’s angry and incredulous expression and felt some sympathy for her. He said, “What''d you think? It’s not


    something shameful if | like Violet. There’s no need to hide it from you, but she’s only my friend now. Do you understand?”


    Ab bie seemed to have suffered a big blow and was on the verge of copse.


    She muttered, “I... see!”


    Ab bie suddenly raised her head and stared at Abel. There was a hint of hatred in her voice that Abel could not understand as


    she said, “Eleanor


    lied to me!”


    If it weren’t for Eleanor, she wouldn’t have wanted to deal with Violet and let someone tamper with the drinks. She wouldn’t have


    given herself up to a sc umbag like Benedict.


    Her eyes turned red at the thought of that!


    Abel was a little helpless as he said, “Now that things havee circumstances, don’t act rashly even though you knew it.


    We''ve each other since we were kids, and I''d like to remind you someth You''re going to marry Benedict, and Eleanor is


    Benedict''s cousin, can’t fall out with her. Otherwise, you''ll be ostracized in the Turner


    “What''s more, Eleanor has Robert backing her. If Robert stands up for and you offend Eleanor, it’s equivalent to you offending


    Robert as well. Theseplicatedworks of connections involve manyrge familie hope you understand and don’t get your


    family into trouble!”


    Ab bie burst into tears.


    She was angry, aggrieved, and sad, but Abel was still willing to think for her when things came to this stage. Even though he


    didn’t love her, she could ept it!


    Ab bie stood up awkwardly and wiped away her tears with force. “Thank you, Abel. | won’t do anything rash!” said Ab bie.


    Then Ab bie turned around and was about to leave.


    “Ab bie!” said Abel, raising his voice.


    “Is there anything else?” asked Abbicin in a tearful voice with her back to him.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    “When will Benedict and you register your marriage?” asked Abel. The matter concerned Violet, so Abel had to ask Ab bie about


    it.


    “It''s tomorrow!” said Ab bie, gritting her teeth and holding back her tears.


    Then Ab bie quickly turned around and walked out.


    Abel stared at Ab bie’s back and shook his head helplessly, hoping the matter would end there.


    At the same time, in the Aster Vi.


    Nelson hadn''t brought the man over yet, so Patrick was in the garden with. the scissors and took his time trimming the roses.


    Nelson entered with two b*dyguards at this moment.


    Two b*dyguards dragged a slender man toward Patrick.


    Patrick acted as if he did not see them and continued cutting the flowers.


    Nelson walked to Patrick and said, “Mr. Hersey, we brought the man here!”


    Then Patrick turned around and looked at the man the b*dyguard was dragging. His voice was emotionless as he said, “Throw


    him on the ground!”


    Nelson was surprised because he thought Patrick nned to have his subordinates interrogate the man!


    After all, it had been a few years since Patrick personally interrogated. anyone!


    The b*dyguards let go of the man. The slender man copsed to the ground face down like a puddle of mud. Obviously, he had


    been taught a lesson beforeing over.


    Patrick squatted down and looked at the man on the ground. “What’s your name?” asked Patrick.


    The man slurred his words, “Greg Boyd...”


    Patrick smiled faintly. His voice was cold enough to freeze the man as Patrick said, “Really? Then who asked you to tamper with


    the drinks at the birthday banquet of the Fuller family’s Madam?”


    Greg crawled on the ground without saying anything.


    Patrick chuckled. Hisughter made the man feel like a venomous snake had crawled over his b*dy.


    “It seems that you think that person is more terrifying than me, don’t you?” said Patrick.


    Greg still did not say a word!


    Patrick picked up his scissors and flipped it lightly. He seemed to be deep in thought. Then he said, “In that case, | don’t have to


    be nice to you!”


    As soon as Patrick was done speaking, he pulled up one of Greg''s fingers and cut it off without hesitation.


    Greg instantly let out a heart-wrenching scream.


    However, Patrick acted as if he had not heard anything. His expression was like a ball of ink that no one could see clearly.


    He ced the scissors on the ground before Greg and stood up. He took a handkerchief from his suit pocket and slowly wiped


    his hands before.


    throwing it at Greg’s face.


    There was already a pool of blood on the ground. Nelson and the two b*dyguards did not dare to make a sound.


    It was okay if Patrick did not make a move. However, once he did, he would scare people to death!


    Patrick’s expression did not change. “Aren’t you going to say it?” said Patrick. His voice was calm as he looked down at Greg like


    a nobleman.


    Greg''s entire b*dy trembled when he heard that.


    The person was a demon. When Greg was captured, he did not know who had caught him. He was still thinking that Ab bie


    would not leave him alone!


    However, from the looks of it, Greg was clearly wrong. He might not be able to leave this ce alive.


    A malicious hatred shed in Greg’s eyes. He suddenly grabbed the scissors on the ground. Determined to die with Patrick, he


    instantly sprang from the floor and lunged at Patrick with scissors to stab him.
