Chapter 236 

Violet subconsciously released the door, her voice stuttering nervously, “What… What are you doing?” 

Patrick took a step forward, and Violet stepped back.. 

The smile on Patrick’s face gradually widened, “Are you that afraid of me?” 

Violet was terrified, ever since she developed feelings for Patrick that she should not have. She realized that she suddenly could not face Patrick. Indeed, they said that when it came to liking someone, it could not be hidden, and there is some truth to it. 

She lowered her head and refused to look at Patrick. “Why would I be afraid of you?” 

Patrick chuckled and suddenly produced a bottle of ointment as if by magic. “Your face was grazed by the car accident last night. This ointment is specially used to remove scars. The effect is not bad. Try it!” 

Violet looked up at him in surprise. She did not expect Patrick to pay attention to these small details. She took the ointment and thanked him sincerely, “Thank you!” 

Patrick looked at her quietly. “Are you going to dismiss me with just a word of thanks?” 

Violet was stubborn. “Then what else do you want?” 

Patrick’s smile grew wider. “I’m here to collect my debt!” 

Violet was confused. “What debt?” 

She had no idea what debt she owed Patrick. 

Patrick looked at her with a smile on his face. Suddenly, he took another step forward, and Violet had already backed up to the edge of the bed. Another step, and she would be sitting on the bed, making the situation even more ambiguous. 

She stood rigidly, her b*dy straight, unmoving, and stared at Patrick Hersey as if this posture could make her unyielding and protect herself. 

Patrick leaned forward, and his bathrobe clung to Violet’s pajamas. She was extremely nervous, and her entire b*dy was tense. 

Patrick looked at her profile, feeling particularly pleased. 

He could not help but smile. He bent down and whispered in her ear, “Smell me. Do I smell like perfume?” 

Violet looked up and glanced at him as if he was crazy. “You just took a shower. Why do

you smell like perfume? Did you use perfume just now?” 

Patrick’s mouth twitched. “No, I didn’t. I just wanted you to smell it. Is that so disgusting?” 

Violet’s expression changed slightly. She instantly understood what Patrick meant. “I explained in the hospital during the day. I did not mean that. I was too angry at that time and spoke without thinking!” 

Patrick looked at her quietly. “Since you were speaking without thinking, does that mean you’re not disgusted?” 

Violet could not figure out what he was trying to do. She furrowed her brows slightly, saying, “Isn’t that obvious?” 

Patrick was in a good mood. He abruptly bent down and whispered into Violet’s ear, “Since it’s not disgusting, I want my k*ss from that night back. Do you have any objections?” 

Violet instantly widened her eyes, understanding what he meant by asking for a debt. However, before she could respond, Patrick had already k*ssed her. 

She looked at Patrick in shock. 

Patrick held the back of her head with one hand and her waist with the other. He stopped after a light taste. “Be good and close your eyes. Otherwise, I will think that you died with regrets!” 

Violet was about to protest. However, Patrick did not allow Violet to speak and k*ssed her again. 

This time, Violet did not push him away. Instead, she instinctively closed her eyes, and her eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly, making her look incredibly cute. 

After the k*ss, Patrick ruffled Violet’s soft hair and chuckled. “Rest early. Good night!” He then let go of Violet and left briskly, closing the door for her as he left. 

Violet only snapped out of her daze when she heard the door close. 

She sat down on the side of the bed and blushed. 

She had just accepted Patrick’s k*ss. Not only did she not push him away, but she al subconsciously cooperated. There was none of the awkwardness from their previous 

k*ss. 

She could not help but cover her face with her hands, feeling ashamed. Was this the difference between liking someone and not liking them?

The next day, while Violet was eating, as soon as she saw Patrick coming downstairs, she wished she could dig a hole and crawl into it. 

Patrick glanced at her, appearing to be in a good mood. “Finish your meal, and I’ll give you a ride to work!” 

Violet’s face was almost buried in her soup bowl. She said in a muffled voice, “It’s okay!” 

Patrick said with a smile, “Yes, I heard that people who just had a car accident have a subconscious fear of cars. Let me take you to work!” 

When Violet heard Patrick’s words, she unconsciously recalled the scene of the car rushing towards her. 

Ultimately, she could not refuse and was brought to work by Patrick. 

Perhaps it was because of Patrick’s explanation yesterday, or maybe it was because of last night’s k*ss. 

Violet sensitively sensed that something between the two of them had changed. 

However, if Patrick did not say anything, she would not take the initiative to mention it. 

Although Patrick was silent in the car, he was obviously in an excellent good mood. 

Violet did not expect the usually cold Patrick to have such a refreshing side. 

As he drove, he glanced at Violet from time to time. Even Violet felt uncomfortable under his gaze. 

When they arrived at the company, Violet quickly exited the car and looked like she was fleeing. 

Patrick got out of the car unhurriedly. He looked at her back and chuckled softly. 

How could she be so cute? 

Even though she had such a strong–willed personality, now, when she saw him, it was as if a mouse had encountered a cat! 

The more Patrick thought about it, the broader his smile became. 

Violet had just entered the design department when she heard Rebecca’s voice. 

“Mr. Brown, you can’t cover up for Violet. She lost two clients within the same period of time. We have to give everyone an explanation for this. Everyone, say yes!” 

Some in the design department immediately voiced their agreement.

Ellie also took the opportunity to add insult to injury, “That’s right, Mr. Brown. While we all know that you and Violet have a senior–junior relationship, it’s precisely for this. reason that you should be fair in handling the matter. Otherwise, it may disappoint 

everyone.” 

Sophia’s little face was livid with anger. “How can you take advantage of the fact that Violet isn’t here to add insult to injury? We still haven’t figured out the truth of the 

matter!” 

Rebecca glanced sideways at Sophia and sneered, “Violet beat up a client in public. The client and friends came to our company to cancel the order and even asked for compensation. What else is there to clarify?” 

Sophia straightened her n*eck and said, “Anyway… Anyway, I don’t think that’s the case!” 

Ellie sarcastically responded, “You think? Who do you think you are? Just a lowly assistant designer. Do you even have the right to speak here?”  sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Sophia’s eyes turned red. “You’re bullying her. You want to convict her while Violet isn’t around!” 

Rebecca retorted, “We convicted her because she was guilty, didn’t we?” 

Sophia could not out–argue Rebecca and was so angry that she was trembling. 

Violet walked in with a stern face and asked, “May I ask, Rebecca, what is 

my crime?”
