Chapter 69
Violet looked at Patrick with her mouth agape. She even did not know how to describe her current mood.
However, after Patrick finished speaking, he turned around and left
without giving her any chance to speak.
Patrick won against Violet in words, so even his footsteps seemed to have become lighter.
Violet stared at Patrick’s back meaningfully.
She never thought that Patrick would retaliate against her with the words she said downstairs.
How could there be such a vengeful man?
Violet cursed silently in her heart, “Patrick, f uck you!”
Then, she snorted in a fit of pique, closed the door angrily, and went into the bathroom to continue showering.
She shouldn't have opened the door for this person halfway through her
shower!
Patrick took his things and returned to the master bedroom. He then realized that his actions just now were a little... childish! However, he had to admit that he felt much better after saying those
words.
However, on second thought, he remembered that he had to take sleeping pills tonight. He did not look too good.
This might be the price of being sharp-tongued!
He had said he would keep a distance from Violet, so he probably couldn’t find the excuse to freeload on her bed again. Patrick closed his eyes, poured two sleeping pills, took them, and lay down.

The next morning, Patrick woke up in a bad mood.
Although he fell asleep last night after taking sleeping pills, it felt different from the feeling of falling asleep naturally with Violet in his arms.
He felt inexplicably anxious.
During breakfast, Violet asked him, “Mr. Hersey, the plagiarism case is in session today. Will you go over?”
Violet's state did not seem to be affected by the conversation between the two of them last night at all.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Patrick felt even more upset. Without looking up, he said directly, “Nelson will go over!”
Violet nodded and quickly finished her breakfast. Then she took her car keys and left.
Violet arrived at the company. After checking in, she went to draw the design draft for a while. Seeing that it was about time, Violet planned to go
to the court.
At ten o’clock in the morning, the plagiarism case of Violet and Veronica officially started.
This was the first time Violet had seen Henry since she was framed by
him.
Violet had no intention of talking to him. Unexpectedly, Henry took the initiative to speak to her. “Violet! How have you been recently?”
There were many media reporters on the side, so Violet couldn't fly into a
rage.
She had a cold look on her face. “I'm fine!”
Henry sighed and put on an act in front of the media. “Violet, you must be angry that Veronica plagiarized your design drafts. Elaine and | are also angry, but she’s still your sister. Whatever the outcome of the trial, please spare her life!”

Violet did not expect Henry to say such a thing in front of the media.
She would be criticized if she said she would not let her off. But she couldn’t hold her anger back if she said she would let her off. In the end, Veronica didn’t forget to add fuel to the fire at such a moment.
She walked over. Her face was pale, and she looked weak. She looked like she could faint at any moment. Her wrist was still wrapped in white gauze.
Violet was afraid Veronica would scam her in front of these people, so she subconsciously stepped back.
In the end, Veronica bowed 90 degrees to Violet when so many reporters were around. “Violet, I’m sorry. No matter what, everything that happened before was my fault. | owe you an apology!”
Her voice was sobbing as she continued to bend down pitifully. “Violet, | was wrong! Please forgive me, okay?”
Violet stared at Veronica with a stiff expression. She could not curse in
front of the media.
However, wanting her to forgive Veronica’s actions was simply a dream!
Violet was in a difficult position. Her expression was dark.
At this moment, some people actually began to sympathize with Veronica.
“Actually... they’re biological sisters. There’s no need for Violet to insist on fighting for victory or defeat!”
“Veronica looks quite pitiful. She still has to appear in court with injuries!”
“We should be lenient when it’s possible. Since Veronica has already apologized, it’s too unreasonable for Violet to refuse to let her go!”
Because these things did not happen to them, some people opened and closed their mouths and began to teach others how to be a person.
Violet clenched her fists, and her face turned ashen. She never expected that Veronica would not forget to put on a pitiful act in front of the media

16:55 Mon,
when it came to court.
What was even more hateful was that people could easily forgive things that they did not suffer from. They acted as if they were great and noble.
The media cameras recorded this scene. Violet's face was ashen. She seemed to have lost before the court hearing.
At this moment, a mocking laugh was heard.
Asl oppy voice sounded. “If an apology is useful, why would we need the police?”
