Patrick wanted to ask the woman beside him to leave, but then he saw Violet looking at him.


    He instantly thought of the scene in which she was talking to Gabriel. His face tensed up and he gave up on chasing the celebrity


    away. He just leanedzily on the sofa.


    Violet saw this scene and immediately stopped.


    She frowned slightly. “Is he nning to have a long talk with that. celebrity?” she wondered.


    She stared fixedly at Patrick and forgot to look away for a moment.


    Patrick came to the gathering straight after work. He was wearing a tie and


    a suit.


    Looking at Violet''s gaze, the frustration in his heart dissipated a little. He could not help but reach out and loosen the tie on his


    neck, revealing his se xy Adam''s apple.


    Seeing him like this, Violet''s eyes shed. For some reason, she thought of a word, “poppy”. It was dangerous and fatal, yet it


    made people want to approach it.


    Violet pursed her lips. No matter how attractive Patrick was, she should not be attracted to him..


    After all, she would always remember Patrick’s warning!


    Violet looked at Patrick in a daze and thought to herself, “If a person. doesn’t want you have any feelings for him, but you have


    feelings for him that you shouldn’t have, it’s just like a moth flying into a me.”


    The celebrity sitting beside Patrick was Rose Jamson. She was just a B-list celebrity.


    She had gone through a lot of trouble to get the chance to attend tonight’s gathering. She knew that a big shot woulde to the


    gathering today. She would not have to worry about resources for the rest of her life if she

    h ooked up with him.


    She had long noticed Patrick. As soon as Patrick entered the door, she could tell that the aura of a superior on him was


    something others didn’t


    possess.


    Although Patrick kept a low profile and no one knew his identity, Rose knew very well that the more powerful a person was, the


    more low-key he would be.


    Rose had guessed everything, but she did not expect Patrick to be so handsome. With his outstanding appearance, even if he


    did not have money, there would probably be many womening after him.


    Patrick sat there coldly. His aura was oppressive, and his expression was cold. He was ipatible with the atmosphere in the


    hall, and no one dared to disturb him.


    However, Rose could not hold back her eagerness to get close to him. She wanted resources, fame, and this handsome and


    charming man.


    She mustered her courage and sat down beside Patrick.


    She had thought that Patrick would give her a certain answer regardless of whether he liked her or not. Maybe he would tell her


    to get lost.


    In the end, Patrick only loosened his tie without saying a word.Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Rose’s eyes lit up. “Was this.... a tacit approval?” she wondered.


    She reached out to pour wine for Patrick and raised the ss to Patrick. Her voice was as gentle as the breeze. Care fora


    drink?”


    Patrick saw that Violet was still looking at him. It was unknown what she’ was thinking. However, he took the ss of wine from


    Rose.


    He raised his ss and downed it in one gulp.


    Patrick’s fingers touched Rose’s when he was taking the wine. For a moment, Rose felt her heart beating wildly and her hand


    was a little numb..

    She mistakenly thought that Patrick was interested in her. She could no help but move closer to him.


    Patrick finished his drink and ced the ss on the table. When he looked up again, he realized that Violet had already


    retracted her gaze and turned her back to him.


    Patrick felt extremely ufortable.


    Rose looked at Patrick in a daze and continued to pour him wine. With a dark expression on his face, he continued to drink


    silently.


    Megan, Violet, and Skyler turned around and nned to go to a corner to find a seat.


    Megan had been observing Violet’s gaze for a long time. She asked, “The woman beside Patrick is wearing the same clothes as


    yours!”


    Only then did Violet notice the clothes she was wearing. She turned to look at Rose. It was true.


    Violet said in a mu ffled voice, “I didn’t notice it just now!”


    Megan nodded and said in a serious tone of voice, “I understand. It’s not embarrassing to wear the same outfit. Whoever is


    uglier will be embarrassed!”


    Violet was originally not in a good mood. Now that she heard Megan say this in such a tone, she felt inexplicably amused.


    She curled her lips into a smile. “She’s a celebrity. She looks better in her


    clothes than me!”


    Megan pouted and said straightforwardly and seriously, “Not all celebrities are beauties. You''re prettier than her!”


    Seeing how serious Megan was, Skyler smiled and nodded in agreement. “Indeed, you''re much prettier than her!”


    Violet smiled and said, “Alright, you two are good-looking as well!”


    Skylerughed out loud. “Is this mutual ttery?”


    Violet shook his head with a smile. “No, I’m returning


    Skyler smiled and said to Megan, “See? This is what |


    conversation’!”


    Megan''s little face tensed up a little. “Violet, don’t you think that celebrity looks like someone?”


    Violet was a little surprised. She looked up at Rose and could only see Rose''s side profile.


    She asked, “Like who?”


    Megan pursed her lips. “Wendy Tyler!”


    Violet''s expression changed slightly, but she did not reply.


    Skyler was curious. “Who is Wendy Tyler?”
