Chapter 290

Robert choked up and couldn’t help but touch the tip of his nose. “Don’t say that. Everything I said just now is completely true!”

He looked at Megan, who didn’t even spare him a glance and couldn’t help but explain. “Patrick told me that yesterday’s incident with Rebecca was directed at Violet. He’s very busy today and asked me to make sure you two are safe!”

Violet hadn’t explained the situation to Megan yet. She had only told Megan over the phone to come back and help recover a tampered surveillance video.

Seeing Megan’s puzzled expression, Violet pulled her out. “I’ll tell you the whole story. in the car.

In the car, Violet recounted the events of the previous night. Megan looked at her in shock and concern. “Why didn’t you tell me something so important?”

Megan hadn’t expected that Ellie’s plant would actually be carried out. Violet had almost become a victim.

As for Rebecca, it was entirely her own fault. After all, if she hadn’t tried to seduce Patrick, she wouldn’t have brought this misfortune upon herself.

As for Violet, maybe she didn’t think to use the mosquito repellent vaporizer after seeing it, given what Ellie had said.

So, in this world, no one can predict how a small action can change the entire outcome.

The tampered surveillance video data had already been taken by the police.

Violet and Megan went to the police station, where Megan went to help.

Violet sat outside and waited for Megan. She saw Robert standing at the door of the information room. He was staring fixedly at Megan as if he didn’t want to miss a single glance.

Violet’s feelings were mixed. Robert had always been a pla yboy. This time… was he serious?

But based on his character, how long could this seriousness last?

In the end, Megan successfully recovered the surveillance video. Violet saw that Robert seemed even happier than Nathan.

The surveillance video showed that Seth had indeed placed the mosquito repellent

vaporizer.

However, Seth himself did not know who was behind him. He only said that when he met the person, they were wearing a blue mask.

Apart from that, Seth knew nothing about the person.

The case had hit a dead end all of a sudden because Nathan had investigated all the leads but couldn’t replace the person with the blue mask.

He could only follow the lead given by Violet and investigate Ellie. However, it seemed. that Ellie had disappeared without a trace after going abroad.

In the evening, Robert and Megan accompanied Violet home.

Megan was extremely worried. “Violet, if the other party failed to harm you this time, I’m afraid they might try again. Be extra careful recently!”

Violet nodded. “Don’t worry, I will be!”

She was also in a foggy state of mind now. Previously, Yvonne’s father, Enzo, had tried to kill her and Patrick. In the end, Patrick discovered Enzo’s malicious plan, and Enzo had turned himself in..

But this time, who could it be?

Violet admitted to herself that she hadn’t harbored such a deep-seated grudge against anyone!

Could it be… Veronica? Although she was a bit crazy, she was now already disabled. Would she dare to make a move?

Violet opened the door with a restless heart and went home. After she reached home, she saw Patrick sitting on the sofa.

When Patrick saw her, he furrowed his brows slightly. “Why are you back so late?”

Violet thought that Patrick didn’t want to talk to her anymore. She walked over and said, “The case has hit a dead end. I stayed at the police station a little longer…”

Violet wanted to continue asking about his hand, but Patrick’s phone rang.

Patrick answered the call, and his expression turned somewhat grim.

Violet looked worried and asked, “What happened again?”

Patrick glanced at her. “There’s pressure from higher-ups. They want Mr. Sampson to treat this as an attempted murder case and wrap up the investigation!”

Violet’s face changed slightly. “But we haven’t figured it out yet, have we?”

Patrick’s eyes flickered, and he looked at Violet with a complicated expression. “Regardless of who ordered it, Seth is the one who committed the murder. And there’s no evidence to prove that he was acting on someone else’s orders.”

Violet’s face darkened. “So you mean to say that Seth is the killer, and his words can’t be trusted since he has no proof?”

Seeing that Violet seemed to be a little angry, Patrick sighed helplessly. “That’s the gist

of it.”

He paused for a moment, then continued, “And I suspect that the person behind this is not simple. Violet, have you offended anyone?”

Violet’s face turned gloomy. “Do you think I’ve done something so heinous that someone would want to take my life?”

Patrick frowned. “That’s not what I meant.”

Violet stared at him. “Regardless of what you meant, what I want to say is that for a normal person, if you accidentally step on their foot, a simple apology would suffice. But for someone with a twisted mind, if you step on their foot, they’ll not only think it was intentional, but they might even believe you got close to them and intend to harm

them. Do you underst

Patrick gazed at Violet with an inscrutable expression and remained silent.

He had to wonder if the person was specifically targeting her. The case had left Violet. feeling agitated and disoriented.

Now, sccing Patrick not saying anything, her emotions were becoming harder to contain. “I don’t know who’s behind all of this, but I have a clear conscience. I can honestly say that I’ve never done anything morally reprehensible. If they think this incident isn’t enough and insist on harming me, then I won’t be afraid. They better not leave any evidence behind for me to catch them!”

Violet’s emotions got the better of her as she spoke, and Patrick finally said gently, “Feeling better?”

Violet furrowed her brows. “What?”

Patrick’s tone was calm. “Your emotions were a bit out of control. Sometimes, expressing yourself can be a relief.”

Upon hearing this, Violet recalled she directed her anger toward Patrick just now. She suddenly felt like a deflated balloon. “I… I didn’t mean to. I’ll go upstairs first.”

After saying that, she hurriedly went upstairs in a slightly flustered manner.

This incident had clearly affected her, leaving her feeling like there was a massive conspiracy with countless mysteries, making her restless.

Though Violet’s mind was in turmoil, she was still worried about Patrick’s injury.

Before going to bed, she called the butler to remind him to remind Patrick to take his medicine.

After a good night’s sleep, Violet felt much better the next morning.

She thought back to the events of the previous night and felt somewhat embarrassed. Patrick had protected her from harm, and she had ended up venting her emotions on him.

Thinking about it made her blush. It was no wonder Patrick had jokingly said she was. heartless when he had a fever.

Feeling a bit awkward, Violet quietly left for work early.

When she arrived at the company, she saw a crowd gathered downstairs at Foreverie Jewelry.

Violet furrowed her brows, wanting to replace out what had happened. She parked her car. in the underground garage.

However, as she walked over, a man suddenly held up a photo, compared it to her face, and shouted, “Violet is here!”

Violet was dumbfounded. What was going on?

However, before she could react..

The next second, a middle-aged woman went berserk and charged at her, grabbing her hair and slapping her across the face.
