Chapter 140
Abel stared at Patrick with obvious
in his eyes.
Violet felt a little helpless. Abel was obviously just worried about her.
She was afraid that Abel would say something he shouldn't in front of Patrick, so she quickly explained, “Dr. Fuller, Mr. Hersey found out that | was in a car accident and especially came to see me.”
After saying that, she explained to Patrick, “Dr. Fuller knew that | was in a car accident and let me s kip the queue. He was the one who asked me to do a detailed checkup in advance.”
When Patrick heard this, he looked at Abel expressionlessly and said in a lukewarm voice, “Thank you, Dr. Fuller.”
Abel's usually gentle and refined expression turned a little dark. “Violet was implicated in Veronica’s car accident!”
Patrick seemed to have sensed something, so he took a step forward and subconsciously stood in front of Violet. “Is that so? But this has nothing to do with you, Dr. Fuller. You only need to be in charge of saving the dead. and healing the injured.”
Abel was slightly angered. “Patrick, even if | have eight hands, | can’t compare to some people who cause trouble and constantly create injuries!”
Patrick raised his eyebrows. His expression was as icy as the tundra. “Is that so? If that’s the case, they’re probably all dead by now. There’s no need for you to save them!”
Abel’s expression turned extremely dark. “Patrick, you're admitting...”
Violet immediately interrupted Abel. “Dr. Fuller!”
She really didn’t want Abel and Patrick to get into a fight, especially when there was a lack of evidence!
Abel was stunned. He looked at Violet and saw that she was frowning deeply.
He took a deep breath and stared at Patrick with a gloomy expression. “Mr. Hersey, your values are a little extreme. | suggest you see a psychiatrist!”
Patrick retorted, “I’ve always had the same values. I’ve never seen a psychiatrist, but I’m still alive and well!”
Abel smiled sarcastically. “| hope that you will be able to continue living so well without any m ental burden, Mr. Hersey.” Patrick snorted coldly. He didn’t care about Abels little tricks at all. “I didn’t do anything wrong, so | naturally don’t need to feel any men tal burden!”
Violet saw that the two of them were at loggerheads, so she quickly stopped Abel from continuing.
She said, “Dr. Fuller, I'll go home first. Call me if there’s anything.”
Abel pursed his lips. He wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he stopped targeting Patrick. “Have a safe drive. | won't send you off.”
Violet nodded and quickly pulled Megan away.
Patrick looked at Abel with a deep gaze. Abel was neither servile nor overbearing as he stared back at Patrick with a sharp gaze. Patrick snorted and followed behind Violet.
When they reached the parking lot, Megan got into her car an
away.
Violet's car was sent to be repaired. She did not make a fuss and g Patrick’s car.
After the car left the hospital, Violet thought of Abel’s words and could help but ask, “Mr. Hersey, how did you know that I was ina car accident?
What she was implying could not be more obvious. She did not tell Patrick anything, but he actually knew. It could only be that he had noticed Veronica's car accident first and realized that she was involved.
Patrick’s expression was a little heavy. “Nelson told me.”

Violet stared at Patrick’s side profile and pressed further. “How did Nelson
know?”
Patrick sensed that Violet was going to dig deeper. His handsome face tensed up. “Violet, what exactly do you want to ask?” When Violet heard his tone, her courage deflated like a punctured
balloon.
She pursed her lips and said in a mu ffled voice, “Nothing!”
Patrick was a little surprised. He had been prepared to tell Violet about the matter regarding the three people, but he did not expect Violet to retreat.
The light turned red. He couldn’t help but glance at Violet.
When he saw the gauze on her forehead, he recalled his unprecedented feelings of regret in front of the operating theater. It was embarrassing and he immediately felt a little uncomfortable.
He cleared his throat. “You hurt your forehead. What did the doctor say?”
Violet looked at him. “Yes. It’s not serious. It’s just a scratch and a slight concussion. I'll be fine.”
Patrick nodded and did not say anything else.
Violet retreated this time and did not ask anything else.
However, Abel's words kept replaying in her mind.
When she returned to Hersey Court, she went into her room and took a shower, but she was not sleepy at all.
She felt that if she didn’t figure this out tonight, she definitely wouldn’t be able to sleep.
She went downstairs and drank a glass of water to cheer herself up. She planned to find Patrick and ask him about it.
She put down her cup and turned around, and to her surprise, she saw Patrick standing at the staircase looking at her expressionlessly.
