Violet’s face slightly changed, and she instinctively looked at Patrick. He remained expressionless
throughout. His tone was too casual for such a cruel statement as if he were saying, “I’m having plain
water. Does anyone have any objections?”
Yvonne’s b*dy went limp, and she suddenly looked at Patrick with tears welling up in her eyes. She
grabbed Gabriel’s sleeve, her voice trembling. “Gabriel. I was wrong, I really messed up! Save me!”
Gabriel turned stiffly to look at Patrick, his tone harsh. “She’s a graphic designer! Don’t you think this is
too cruel?”
No matter how unbearable Yvonne was, she was still his cousin. He might
not like her, but he could not watch her ruin her future.
Patrick’s voice remained cold. “Too cruel, you say?”
No one answered his question, and Patrick continued. “Gabriel, I initially planned to take both of her
hands. After all, for someone who enjoys sneaky activities, what’s the use of keeping her hands? Now,
with just one hand, do you still think it’s cruel?”
Gabriel’s expression became rigid, and he muttered, “I know it was her

“Since you also think it’s her fault, shouldn’t she pay the price?” Patrick asked, his face cold.
Gabriel had a tense expression and was left speechless by the question. He completely lacked the
arrogance he usually displayed in front of Patrick.
Violet’s emotions were in extreme turmoil.
Suddenly, Patrick turned to her and said, “Violet, take a look. Can you trust. Gabriel? Do you still firmly
believe that even if the account used to pay Laurie belongs to him, this wasn’t his doing?”

His voice grew colder. “What about now? Even if he did not do it himself, he’s still protecting the
mastermind behind the scenes. Do you think your persistence still holds any meaning?”
Violet abruptly looked up at Patrick, her gaze eventually settling on Gabriel’s face. Her emotions were
complicated. While she could not forgive someone for swapping her désign, she had never genuinely
considered taking someone’s hand. It was the first time she had seen this dark side of Patrick, and she
could not help but feel afraid.
Gabriel felt extremely embarrassed when he noticed Violet staring at him without saying a word. He
closed his eyes and said resolutely, “Patrick, you can do whatever you want with Yvonne. You’re right.
When you make a mistake, you should face the consequences.”
Having said that, Gabriel’s sternness frightened Yvonne to the point where her b*dy went limp. She
knelt down and cried in distress, saying, “Gabriel, you can’t do this to me! You can’t just abandon me!
How am I going to live. without my hand?”
Gabriel closed his eyes ruthlessly and remained silent. Despair filled. Yvonne’s gaze as she looked at
his face. Then she turned and crawled on her knees towards Patrick, reaching out to grab his trouser
leg. However, Nelson blocked her way and said, “Miss Williamson, Mr. Hersey hates to have any
connections with something filthy.”
Yvonne’s face turned even more unpleasant, and she pleaded with desperation. “Patrick, please spare
me. I admit I was wrong this time. I’ll apologize to Violet, and I promise I’ll never misbehave again.
Please, I’m begging you, spare me!”
Yvonne continued to kowtow on the ground, her forehead bruised from the repeated knocks. She had
never experienced such humiliation in her life. However, she was genuinely terrified because she liked
Patrick, and she knew him well enough to understand that he was fully capable of such. actions.

that if Patrick investigated this matter involving Gabriel, it would be an end to it. After all, the
relationship between Gabriel and Patrick was quite unique in the past. It was just some things

Gabriel.

She could not help but
resent herself for not being discreet enough, as she had still been
discovered by Patrick.
Violet observed Yvonne’s pitiful state, contrasting it with her earlier arrogance, and felt an inexplicable
discomfort in her heart. She decided to leave the scene and get some fresh air.
However, just as she rose from her seat, she heard Patrick’s cold voice command. “Sit down!”
