Florence still didn’t give up, she walked up to Patrick and hugged his waist. “Patrick, I miss you so much,” she said.


    Patrick closed his eyes and tried to control the anger in his heart. “Let go of me,” he said.


    Seeing that Patrick didn’t resist, Florence smiled subconsciously. Men are all like this.


    “Don’t go, let me hold you like this?”This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Patrick took a deep breath and pushed Florence away. “If you keep doing this, don’t me me for being rude.”


    A wave of hostility emanated from the man’s body as his face was covered with gloom. It seemed that he could swallow Florence in the next second.


    “You… I…” Florence was frightened by Patrick’s behavior but still mustered her courage. “Jane is a woman who doesn’t know how to cherish what she has. Why can’t you ept me?”


    Florence’s wordspletely angered Patrick.


    “Get out.”


    Patrick roared lowly; although he had quarreled with Jane before, it did not mean that others coulde here and speak ill of her.


    “Don’t…”


    Florence shook her head; even though she was very afraid of this version of Patrick now, such an opportunity was hard-won and she had to seize it well.


    Florence learned today that Patrick was alone in the hotel. Beforeing, she deliberately wore a very revealing miniskirt, which waspletely different from her usual style.


    Because she had just rubbed herself against Patrick, certain parts of her body were partially exposed.


    Patrick found it disgusting to look at her, so he turned his face away and called the hotel reception using the room phone.


    “Who allowed her toe up? Get her out of here.”


    He turned away from Florence and said something she didn’t expect.


    “I’m sorry, sir. It was our negligence, and we apologize for the inconvenience caused.”


    After speaking, the hotel receptionist turned around fiercely and looked at Florence.


    “No, you can’t do this.”


    Seeing the hotel staffy a hand on her waist, Florence struggled to resist, but she couldn’t withstand the strength of so many people.


    That was how Florence was thrown out of the hotel by several staff members.


    Meanwhile, Patrick went to the surveince room and retrieved the scene where Florence had harassed him.


    The video was of high quality, capturing Florence’s every move clearly. Without hesitation, Patrick directly sent the video to the press.


    In no time, the reporters were dumbfounded. Shortly after, they edited the video to make it more eye-catching, emphasizing Florence’s provocative body movements. Then they posted the video online.


    As expected, the video gained tremendous poprity and quickly climbed the trending charts.


    Instantly, the inte was filled with insults towards the Doyle family.


    “Oh my, is that Florence? She has no shame!”


    “I can’t believe she would try to seduce an engaged man. Not many people would dare to do that!”


    The onlinemunityunched a fierce criticism against Florence and the Doyle family. In no time, the Doyle family became the target of public outrage.


    Florence looked at the insults directed at her online, feeling utterly hopeless.


    At that moment, she received a call from her family.


    Trembling, Florence answered the call, knowing that she had made a grave mistake this time.


    “You foolish girl, what have you done!”


    As expected, as soon as the call connected, her father criticized her harshly.


    Florence fought back tears, unable to believe that Patrick would be so resolute in pushing her into danger.


    “How did I raise you? You have done something so shameless,pletely tarnishing the reputation of the family!”


    Florence remained silent. She knew that no matter what exnation she gave now, her father would no longer believe her.


    “Because of your actions, thepany’s stock has plummeted, and now it’s almost impossible to recover. You figure out what to do!”


    His voice was filled with anger, and Florence’s body trembled.


    If they couldn’t recover from the stock market crash, it meant their family would go bankrupt!


    If her actions led them to bankruptcy, she would never be able to hold her head up in front of others.


    “I can’t control you now, but you must fix this mess for me. Otherwise, don’t bothering back!”


    His furious voice came through the phone, and then the call was abruptly ended.


    Florence stared at the darkening screen, feeling overwhelmed with despair.


    Now, even her father didn’t want to take care of her. Whom could she turn to for help?


    Patrick… Florence lowered her gaze and thought for a moment. A name appeared vividly in her mind.


    Beatrice!


    She nodded. Beatrice was Patrick’s mother, and no matter how proud and arrogant Patrick was, he still had to listen to his mother, right?


    With this in mind, Florenceposed herself and spent some time in the kitchen before taking some food and going to find Beatrice.


    Since the incident in the office, Florence and Beatrice had stopped interacting.


    “Mrs. Pansy.”


    As soon as Florence entered, tears streamed down her face, which pained Beatrice to see.


    “My dear, you’ve suffered.”


    Beatrice had also seen the news on Twitter today. Since thest time, she had med herself for letting Florence lose face in front of Patrick. So this time, her heart was still with Florence.


    “Mrs. Pansy, I’m fine.”


    Florence sniffled and took out the chicken soup she had stewed. “Mrs. Pansy, you said you liked itst time, right? Look, I brought it for you again.”


    Seeing Florence’s filial piety, Beatrice couldn’t help butpare her to her own son and future daughter-inw, and her heart wavered.


    “You’ve worked hard, thinking of me like this.”


    Beatrice sighed. Although she was Patrick’s mother now, she had very few people to apany her.


    That was why she had always sided with Florence.


    “Just now, my dad called me and said thepany’s stocks have plummeted. Thepany is on the verge of copsing…”


    As Florence spoke, her voice choked, and Beatrice felt her heart ache.


    “That’s why I had no choice but toe to you for help. Besides you, I have no one else to turn to.”


    Seeing Florence crying in sadness, Beatrice was also torn inside.


    “It’s all because of my son’s foolish actions that you’ve suffered.”


    Beatrice gently wiped the tears from Florence’s face. “Alright, alright, stop crying. If you keep crying, you won’t be a beautiful youngdy anymore.”


    Florence pursed her lips and obediently closed her mouth.


    After speaking, Beatrice got up and went into the room. In a while, she came out with a bank card.


    “This card is what Patrick said he would use for my retirement. It’s not much, just a few hundred million. I hope it can help you get through this.”


    Seeing Beatrice secretly giving her money, Florence was stunned for a moment.
