Patrick didn’t get angry. Instead, he took out his phone and showed Yannis the picture that Megan had removed the mosaic on it, asking him to take a look. Yannis, upon seeing the photo of a relatively good–looking face, was instantly shocked and could not believe it. Patrick took back his phone, his tone cold, saying, “Have you seen it clearly? I don’t need to say anything more, right?” 

Yannis struggled to lift his head and looked at Patrick with a panicked expression. Unable to form coherent sentences, he stammered, “Sir… Sir, this… this is really 

not me!” 

Patrick’s gaze darkened. “At this point, you still want to claim that the person in the photo isn’t you? Alright, I get it.” He turned and said to Nilly. “Take care of it, just don’t kill him. After saying that, Patrick walked away.  Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Nilly remained expressionless and took out a sharp dagger from his pocket. As soon as the dagger was revealed, its sharp blade gleamed with a snow–white radiance under the light. Seeing this, Yannis was so scared that he instantly wet himself. He quickly stopped Patrick, crying and begging as he said, “Sir, sir, please wait. I have something to say!” 

Patrick paused in his footsteps, a sarcastic smile playing on his l*ps. He pulled a nearby chair and lazily sat down, casting a brief, contemptuous glance at Yannis. “Go ahead, I’m listening.” 

Yannis, a grown man, with a tearful voice and a frightened look, stammered, “II was manipulated by someone to do this. That woman told me if I slept with the lady and took pictures, she would give me money. My son recently had surgery, and I needed a large sum of money. I had no choice!” As Yannis spoke, he burst into tears, a grown man crying and sobbing, which made Patrick frown. His eyes flickered. He could tell that Yannis wasn’t lying, which meant that to find out the mastermind behind this, they needed to track down that woman. 

Just as Patrick was thinking this, Nilly’s phone rang. He checked his phone, and a hint of joy flashed across his face. “Mr. Hersey, we’ve found Tanya Stewart!” Patrick breathed a sigh of relief. This was really perfect timing! He remained his expressionless face and said in a deep voice, “Bring her over.” 

Nilly nodded and immediately instructed the men supporting on the other side to bring the person over. After completing this task, he looked at Patrick, his gaze

briefly scanning Yannis on the ground, and his expression was filled with hesitation. 

Patrick gave him a glance and said, “If you have something to say, just say it. You don’t need to worry about him.” Upon hearing this, Nilly nodded and began speaking earnestly, “Here’s the situation. The people I sent to Tanya’s residence couldn’t find her. So, as you suggested, I looked into her connections and recent financial transactions. I found a significant transfer of funds in her account, and, interestingly, one–fifth of that amount was transferred to Yannis.” 

Yannis, upon hearing his name, raised his head with a frightened expression, immediately shrinking back and curling up on the ground. As for Patrick, his l*ps. curled into a sardonic smile, confirming his suspicion. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “What’s next?” 

Nilly, with a tense expression, continued. “Furthermore, our investigation revealed. that the person making the transfer is someone named Cheryl Larson, who is actually a distant relative of Jasmine Dane. We found that this money is most likely being transferred to Cheryl by Jasmine herself. Cheryl and Jasmine’s distant familial relationship is not widely known, but Cheryl uses the alias ‘Swallow‘ and works at Timeless Bar. Some of her acquaintances at the bar often heard her boast about being the cousin of someone famous.” 

Patrick listened for a while, furrowing his brow, and then asked, “Who is Jasmine Dane?” 

Nilly was momentarily surprised but quickly realized that Patrick had no knowledge of the entertainment industry, so he did not know anything about what he had told him. Nilly quickly explained, “Jasmine is Rose’s agent. As for Tanya, we found her in the basement of Jasmine’s residence. Since the incident involving Miss Webb started spreading on the internet yesterday afternoon, Tanya has been under Jasmine’s control, presumably to prevent us from discovering her involvement. As for Yannis…” 

Nilly paused and continued. “Yannis didn’t have as much knowledge about the matter as Tanya did, and the money he received was from her. Additionally, his face was masked in the photos. Jasmine probably assumed that we wouldn’t be able to trace his involvement. Hence, she didn’t pay much attention to his actions.” 

Patrick’s expression darkened when he heard the name Rose. He was a clever individual, and in a matter of moments, he connected all the dots. Rose wanted to

take down Violet, so she had her agent, Jasmine, spend money to bribe the small- time internet celebrity Tanya to create a set of scandalous photos with Yannis, which they then spread on the internet to tarnish Violet’s reputation. 

Jasmine was likely concerned about Patrick investigating the financial transactions, so she had her distant relative Cheryl transfer the money on her behalf. She came up with a plausible excuse, believing that Patrick wouldn’t find the connection between Rose and her side of the matter. However, she never expected that Cheryl, going by the alias “Swallow,” was selling alcohol at Timeless Bar, and Patrick was the secret boss of the place. When he decided to investigate his employees, he simply needed to chat with a few acquaintances at the bar who knew Cheryl, and he quickly uncovered her background. 

A sly smile crept onto Patrick’s l*ps, and he absently toyed with the armrest of his chair. He hadn’t anticipated that after Violet’s previous successful online. turnaround, Rose dared to use internet public opinion once again to target Violet. It seemed she had truly grown tired of her own life! He stood up, his voice devoid of emotion, asking, “Do you know the whereabouts of Rose and Jasmine?” 

Nilly nodded. “I’ve already sent people to find them.” 

Patrick’s l*ps curled into a bloodthirsty smile. “No need to find them. I will make them come begging in person. He turned to Nilly and instructed. “Before 8 o’clock. tomorrow morning, I want to see Yannis and Tanya publicly admitting online that they are the two figures in the photos and that they conspired to tarnish Violet’s reputation.” 

Nilly nodded vigorously. “I’ll make it happen as soon as possible.” 

Patrick responded with a “Hmm,” with a glint in his eyes, he looked at Nilly, saying softly, “And remember, have Tanya implicate Rose. If Rose is already fed up with life, there’s no need for me to be lenient. I recall Rose’s family hails from the countryside, and it’s rumored they have many sisters but only one brother. If her brother gets into trouble, do you think Rose would willingly admit her mistake online to keep him out of jail?” 

Rose probably never expected that the personal information she shared about her family background during her first encounter with Patrick would be used against her in this way. 

After hearing Patrick’s words, Nilly instantly understood. Patrick intended to handle Rose using this method, and he would execute the plan. He knew that when

Patrick acted, he went for the jugular. He nodded earnestly. Tunderstand your intentions. Mr. Herury‘
