Chapter 207
The more Helen thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. Her desire to put Violet in her place grew.
She pointed a finger right at Violet. “Ms. Webb, I’ll tell you today. Don’t think that you can look down on your client just because you're a famous designer now. You'd better think about it carefully. Who knows if your client’s friend will become your boss’s wife in the future? Don’t you think so, Ms. Webb?”
Her words were meant to strike a blow. She was almost blunt.
It was as if Rose had already become Patrick's wife. In the next second, she would be able to get Rose to fire her!
Violet glanced at Helen indifferently and said in an emotionless tone, “Miss Yates, do you have any other requirements? If not, I'll continue with the design. Please enjoy your tea, Miss Yates. I'll head out to work first!”
With that, Violet stood up and left.
She reached the door of the reception room when she heard Helen shout angrily behind her. “Violet Webb!”
Violet turned her head and glanced at her. Her eyes were cold and sharp. It made Helen’s heart sk ip a beat.
Violet did not say anything. She opened the door and went out.
Helen was furious. She had insinuated that Rose might be the wife of Violet’s boss, but Violet still didn’t give her any respect! How infuriating!
When Rose hitched onto Patrick, she would definitely teach Violet a
lesson!
At the same time, on the top floor, in the CEO's office, Rose looked at Patrick carefully.
“Mr. Hersey, regarding the previous scandal, I've always wanted to

apologize to you personally. Unfortunately, | haven’t had the chance! Previously at Azure City, | wanted to apologize to you in person, end, you didn’t answer my call or reply to my message. I...”
Patrick’s expression was cold as he interrupted her. “There’s no need!”
Rose bit her lips and looked pitiful.
Unfortunately, Patrick lowered his head to look at the document and did not even look at her.
Rose pursed her lips tightly. “Mr. Hersey, if you don’t need my apology, what about gratitude? After all, I’m the beneficiary of this scandal. Will it affect Mr. Hersey’s work?”
Patrick frowned and looked up at her. “What are you trying to say?”
Rose hardened her heart and slowly took off her coat, revealing the dress. she had on beneath. “Mr. Hersey, | want to... thank you!”
Patrick’s pupils constricted and his expression turned extremely icy at once. The temperature in the office seemed to have dropped. “Put it back. on!”
Rose was instantly afraid. “Mr. Hersey! I...”
Patrick’s voice was so cold that it was a little scary. “Miss Jamson, have some self-respect!”
Rose’s expression was hideous. She stood on the spot pitifully and did not
move.
Patrick had run out of patience. “Since you're done apologizing, and | don’t need your gratitude, you can leave now!”
Rose was a little sad. Although she had intended to use Patrick to climb up in status, she really liked the man,
He was powerful, cold, and domineering. Every bit of him was incredibly
attractive to he
She did not believe that no man would be unfazed by beauty.
G.
She stood there stubbornly and reached out to pull off the strap of her
dress.
Patrick didn’t expect young women to be so shameless these days.
His expression was frigid as he said bluntly, “Miss Jamson, | think you may have misunderstood. | ignored the scandal because | didn’t take it to heart. at all. Also, | have a wife. My wife comes from a better family background than you. She’s prettier than you, has a better figure, and has a higher educational background than you!
“| already have a pearl of the highest quality, so I’m not interested in fakes. Please stop before you go too far! | have no intention of betraying my wife as well. Please leave immediately. Don’t force me to get someone to throw you out. If that happens, it won’t look good on everyone!”
ally froze. She looked at Patrick in disbelief. “Mr... Mr. Hersey, you
have a wife?”
Patrick picked up the internal line. “Nelson, help me escort Miss Jamson.
out!”
Rose was in a sorry state. She tidied her shoulder strap and picked up the coat on the ground in a panic.
In the design department, Sophia sat beside Violet angrily and defended. her. “How could Helen say that? She made it sound like Rose has already. become our boss's wife!”
“Besides, even if Rose really marries Mr. Hersey one day, Helen won't be able to use her power to bully others. She’s just a C-list celebrity. She really thinks too highly of herself. Furthermore, she’s only Rose’s best friend, not our boss’s wife. What right does she have?”
Sophia was infuriated. When she thought of Helen’s attitude towards her and Violet just now, she wanted to scratch someone’s eyes out.
Violet looked calm. She glanced at Sophia and blinked. “Don’t be angry. Maybe Mr. Hersey is already married!”
Helen was just a clown. Violet did not give her actions any regard at all.

That was why she was able to remain calm and collected.
Sophia was a little surprised. “What? How is that possible? Everyone knows that Mr. Hersey is a bachelor!”
Violet glanced at her and smiled without explaining.
A bachelor who was in a secret marriage?
Although she and Patrick were only married by contract and their marriage had a deadline, it was an undeniable fact that Patrick was already married!
When Rose came to the design department, Sophia was still chattering away in Violet’s ear. “Violet, I've been thinking about it. It's impossible for Mr. Hersey to be married. After all, if he’s married, how can no one know?”
Violet smiled and did not say anything.
At this moment, Rose came in. “Ms. Webb, where’s Helen?”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Violet was taken aback. She stood up and looked at Rose. “Miss Yates is in the reception room. By the way, Miss Jamson, you can go in first. I'll show you the design draft!”
In the end, Rose shook her head. “No need. | don’t have any other requests. Ms. Webb, you can do as you see fit. | believe in your ability!”
Violet's eyes flashed. “Alright. I'll walk you and Miss Yates out!”
Rose nodded.
When Helen saw Rose, she immediately cleared her throat and asked in front of Violet, “Rose, why did you come down so quickly?”
Rose’s eyes flickered and she said in a low voice, “He’s busy today. | have to be understanding of him. We talked for a while and left!”
Helen held Rose’s arm and walked out while asking in a meaningful tone, “What did you two talk about then?”
Rose glanced at Violet from the corner of her eye. She did not want to
reveal her relationship with Patrick in front of outsiders.
She said gently, “He said that he was too busy today to entertain me. He will make it up to me in the future!”
The words ‘make it up’ had a deeper meaning.
Helen winked at her and smiled enviously. She even looked at Violet as she said provocatively. “Did he say when he would introduce you to everyone?”
Rose immediately looked embarrassed and whispered shyly, “Don’t talk
nonsense!”
Violet's heart sank slightly. She looked at the two of them silently as she walked them to the elevator.
Violet turned around and returned to the design department. She had. already begun to think that if Patrick really wanted to introduce Rose to everyone as his girlfriend, she would end the contractual marriage.
Patrick’s prestige still remained, so Henry would not dare to act recklessly
now.
Before she divorced Patrick, she could send Charles overseas in advance. When that happened, Henry would not be able to threaten her anymore.
Violet took out her phone and sent Patrick a WhatsApp message.
[Mr. Hersey, why don’t we... divorce?]
