My Wife Is An All-Around Expert

Chapter 178

Violet retracted her gaze and felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

She pursed her lips as she suddenly thought of the crazy Yvonne.

Yvonne had made things difficult for her time and time again for the sake

of Patrick.

So many women had vied to please him. Was she going to become one of them?

Violet suddenly had a strong feeling of discouragement.

She replied to Megan’s message.

Violet replied, [No matter what he asks, don’t tell him. | can’t be friends. with him anymore two years ago. It’s best not to meet him!]

Megan sent. [Got it!]

Violet put away her phone, feeling inexplicably depressed.

Just as Patrick was about to finish his shower, his phone rang again.

When Violet saw that the caller ID read “Brother”, her eyes flashed. She guessed that it should be a call from Patrick’s brother. She hesitated for a moment but did not answer the call for Patrick.

She picked up Patrick’s phone and walked toward the bathroom. “Mr. Hersey, your brother is calling you! Do you want me to answer it for you?”

Patrick’s voice was mixed with the sound of running water in the

bathroom. “Help me answer it. Tell him that I’ll call him back when | come

out later!”

Violet-looked at the flashing light on Patrick’s phone screen and was about to answer the call.

However, the call was suddenly hung up.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Violet pursed her lips and walked back to the sofa. She placed the phone

Chapter 178

on the coffee table.

After a while, Patrick came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe.

His hair was wet. The water on the hair ends dripped onto his half-naked chest and slowly slid into the deeper part.

He swallowed slightly. His Adam’s apple was so s exy that it made one’s hair

stand on end.

Violet's face turned red and her heart raced. She could not help but look

away.

Patrick walked over and took his phone from the coffee table. He asked Violet, “Did my brother call me?”

Violet turned to look at him and saw him bending over. His eight-pack abs were clearly displayed in front of Violet. They were well-defined and

seemed to be exceptionally strong and firm.

Violet pursed her lips and felt an urge to swallow. “Yes, the caller ID displayed ‘Brother! | originally planned to answer it, but the call suddenly ended, so | put your phone back!”

Patrick nodded and picked up his phone. He immediately saw the message from Rose.

He suddenly looked up at Violet. “Rose called me too?”

Violet pretended to be nonchalant and did not look at Patrick. “Oh, yes, | almost forgot to tell you!”

Patrick frowned slightly. “Violet, you care, right?”

Violet put on a fake smile and looked at Patrick. “Mr. Hersey, what are you talking about? | don’t understand!”

Patrick frowned even more. “Violet, Rose and 1...”

He was about to explain when Violet’s phone suddenly rang.

Violet looked down and saw that it was Megan calling.

Chapter 178

She gave a faint smile and said, “Sorry, Mr. Hersey. It’s Megan calling.”

As so

as the call was connected, Megan’s voice came through with some urgency. “I didn’t tell Freddie your contact number, but for some reason, he got in touch with Skyler, and Skyler just told me that he told Freddie!”

Violet's expression changed slightly. She pursed her lips. “Okay, got it. This has nothing to do with you. As for Skyler, he didn’t do it on purpose.

If

Freddie looks for me, | can handle it myself.”

After Violet hung up, Patrick looked at her with a frown. “What’s the

matter?”

Violet smiled and said, “It’s just a small matter.”

Seeing that Violet did not want to say more, Patrick did not probe further.

He continued to explain and said, “Violet, at the day, Rose and I...”

However, halfway through his explanation, Violet's phone rang again.

This time, it was an unknown number.

Initially, Violet did not want to answer the call. However, in order to ease. the current situation, she still said, “I’m really sorry, Mr. Hersey. There’s

another call!”

Patrick stared at her, the light in his eyes fading.

Violet was calm, restrained, and distant. She seemed to have returned to

how she was at the beginning.

Patrick suddenly did not want to explain. His tone was a little cold as he said, “Then go ahead with your phone.

After saying that, he put away his phone and sat on the sofa at the side. His eyes were gloomy, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

Violet looked at him, bit her lip, and answered the call.

When she saw Rose’s message, she suddenly realized that Patrick had saved her. She was indeed very grateful, but this was not a reason for her

Chapter 178

to interfere in Patrick’s private matters.

After all, Patrick had made it very clear to her from the beginning that one had to know their limits.

She lacked everything except this.

She picked up the call and was still a little distracted until she heard the person’s voice on the other end. “Viola”

Violet's expression changed slightly. “Freddie!”

Freddie’s voice was gentle and warm. “Yeah. We haven't seen each other for

two years

How are you?”

Violet pursed her lips tightly. “I’m fine. What about you?”

Freddie chuckled. “Not bad. Viola, I’m back.”

Violet could not continue playing dumb. “Yes, | saw it on the news.”

Freddie’s voice carried a hint of a smile. “Really? Then, can | take it that you're still paying attention to my news?”

Violet's expression froze slightly. She changed the topic stiffly. “Freddie,

what's the matter?”

Freddie’s smile faded as he asked, “Will you come for the Alumni Gathering in two days?”

Violet pursed her lips tightly. “I might be... very busy at that time.”

Freddie’s tone was a little cold. “Viola, it's only been a little over two years since we last saw each other, and you’re already so distant to me now?”

Violet remained silent.

Freddie continued, “Viola, I’m really a little sad that you're so cold to me. Are you going to reject me the moment | ask you? I searched for your contact information for a long time before | found it! | almost even asked my brother to help me investigate your news. You know?”

Violet's heart tightened slightly. “I’m not rejecting you. I’m just...”

Freddie interrupted her. His tone was gentle but forceful. “If you are busy that day, | can change the time of the Alumni Gathering!”
