The woman next door nodded repeatedly. “That’s right. | thought the samest night. However, when she was ndered by


    people on the entire intest night, I’m afraid no one expected her to turn the tables today!”


    The other one was afraid that her fellow could not hear her clearly, so she turned off the tap. “That''s right. | didn’t expect that


    Rose would be suddenly mocked for being stupid by everyone on the Inte in the morning. When | saw the news, | went to


    watch theplete video sent by Beauty Lovers Gang’s production team. After watching it, | realized that Rose is really stupid


    and likes to show off! No wonder she was mocked by everyone. She deserves it!”


    The woman next door immediately became gossipy. “Rose came from the countryside. She’s inexperienced, and I''m not


    surprised that she fell into this trap. However, do you know who helped Violet deal with Rose?”


    “Who is it?” The other woman was extremely surprised.


    She thought that the production team suddenly had a conscience!


    The woman next door sneered. “How is that possible? The production team is not that


    kind!”


    She continued mysteriously, “You might not know this, but Foreverie Jewelry’s CEO, Patrick, did this. However, | heard from


    others that Patrick is so good to Violet because of Gloria!”


    “Ah! Is that true?” The other woman was shocked.


    The woman next door chuckled and said in a meaningful tone, “That’s right. You care about jewelry. Don’t you know that after


    Violet became famous, the outside world. called her Gloria 2.0? | reckon that Patrick helped her because she looks like Gloria. |


    heard that before Gloria went overseas, she was quite close to Patrick! Although Patrick protected Violet this time, I’m afraid that


    Violet was most likely used as a substitute!”


    “Really? That is really shocking! However, Patrick is so handsome. | think it’s not bad even if being treated as a substitute by


    him!” Another female voice sounded innocent.


    The woman next door sneered and said, “You’re probably the only one who thinks so!”


    The two of them quickly changed the topic, but Violet stayed stiff in the bathroom as if she were frozen.


    “Was Patrick close to Gloria? So much so that he thought of me as Gloria, she thought.


    Moreover, she was not a fool. From the meaningful tone of the woman next door, the

    rtionship between Gloria and Patrick seemed to be extraordinary.


    The most uneptable thing for Violet was what happened online. Did Patrick really help her because she looked like Gloria?


    Violet should be happy that the public opinion on the Inte had reversed.


    But at this moment, she really couldn''t be happy at all.


    Megan and Majorie were showering in the bathroom on the other side and did not hear the two women’s discussion.


    Therefore, they had no idea what had happened when they saw Violet’s sad look.


    They had lunch near the Gents.


    After lunch, Violet thought of what she had heard in the shower. Her mind was in a mess, and she did not want to reply to Hersey


    Court at all.


    Majoric suggested going to watch a movic, and she agreed.


    However, while watching the movie, Violet was still distracted.


    Violet had dinner with Majorie and Megan before returning to Hersey Court.


    When she reached the entrance of the vi, she took out her phone and saw that Patrick had sent a lot of messages.


    It read, [Violet. It’s noon. I''ll treat the three of you to lunch!]


    [Violet. | heard from the people in the clubhouse that the three of you have already left. If you have time, let’s have a meal


    together. When are youing home?]


    Violet did not reply to the messages until nighttime. At five or six o’clock, Patrick sent another message.


    [Violet, what''s wrong with you? Why didn’t you reply to my messages? Didn''t we agree to go home together?]


    [Violet. No calls, no messages. What the hell are you doing?]


    [Violet, | don’t want to be angry. Can you not deliberately avoid me like this?]


    Patrick sent, [Violet, I''ll wait for you in Hersey Court! Come back when you''re done having fun outside!]

    shed as she read the messages.


    She knew that with Patrick''s ability, it would be easy for him to find her.

    However, he did not appear in front of her directly. Instead, he kept sending her such.


    messages.


    Violet''s eyes shed. She stared at the phone and was silent for a few seconds. She sat down by the garden of the vi. She


    had actually tried tofort herself that what the two women said might just be hearsay.


    However, she did not expect that the more she tried tofort herself, the more messy her heart became. She could not help


    but go to a dead end. There was no smoke without fire. If it was really fake, how could there be rumors?


    Violet stayed in the garden for a long time and was bitten by the mosquitos. Then she finally got up and entered the vi.


    Seeing that the living room was dark, she thought that Patrick had not returned either.


    Violet entered the vi. She changed her shoes and walked past the entrance without turning on the lights. She walked towards


    the living room.


    However, she had only taken a few steps when she saw red sparks flickering in the darkness. Only then did she realize that


    there seemed to be a smell of smoke in the air.


    She instantly froze as she tentatively called out, “Patrick!”


    Patrick grunted faintly.


    Violet''s heart skipped a beat. She tried her best to pretend that nothing had happened. “Why didn’t you turn on the lights!”


    Smoking in the living room with the lights off. Who was he trying to scare?


    Patrick was silent for a moment before speaking slowly.


    He must have smoked a lot. His voice was hoarse. “If you want to turn the lights on, I''ll turn on the floormp for you!”


    When Violet heard that he was going to turn on the lights, she hurriedly said, “Don’t turn it on!”


    Perhaps some words could not be said after the lights were turned on.


    Since Patrick was also at home, she did not intend to continue wasting her time figuring


    the situation out alone.


    Although it was dark, Violet could clearly feel that Patrick was looking at her.


    Moreover, he did not seem to be in a good mood.


    Wed, 28 Feb


    Violet pursed her lips and took a deep breath. “Patrick, can | ask you a question?”


    Patrick hummed. His voice was hoarse and a little too sexy. “Say it!”


    42%


    The corners of Violet’s mouth twitched. After a long time, he said, “Why did you ask the production team to release theplete


    video? Why did you help me?”


    Patrick seemed to have put out the cigarette in his hand. The only spark in the darkness. disappeared.


    His tone was very calm. “I don’t want to see you being ndered online!”


    Violet frowned. When she thought of what she had heard today, her face was a little dark. “It’s that simple?”


    Patrick asked, “What else could it be?”


    Hearing his tone, Violet could imagine that he was frowning.


    There was an indescribable feeling in Violet''s heart. She felt that she had a lot on her mind for the entire day. She felt extremely


    aggrieved and said in a dissatisfied tone, “Isn’t it because | look like Gloria?”


    Patrick sounded unhappy. “Why do you think like this?”
