Chapter 160
Patrick wanted to ask the woman beside him to leave, but then he saw Violet looking at him.
He instantly thought of the scene in which she was talking to Gabriel. His face tensed up and he gave up on chasing the celebrity away. He just leaned lazily on the sofa.
Violet saw this scene and immediately stopped.
She frowned slightly. “Is he planning to have a long talk with that. celebrity?” she wondered.
She stared fixedly at Patrick and forgot to look away for a moment.
Patrick came to the gathering straight after work. He was wearing a tie and
a suit.
Looking at Violet's gaze, the frustration in his heart dissipated a little. He could not help but reach out and loosen the tie on his neck, revealing his se xy Adam's apple.
Seeing him like this, Violet's eyes flashed. For some reason, she thought of a word, “poppy”. It was dangerous and fatal, yet it made people want to approach it.
Violet pursed her lips. No matter how attractive Patrick was, she should not be attracted to him..
After all, she would always remember Patrick’s warning!
Violet looked at Patrick in a daze and thought to herself, “If a person. doesn’t want you have any feelings for him, but you have feelings for him that you shouldn’t have, it’s just like a moth flying into a flame.”
The celebrity sitting beside Patrick was Rose Jamson. She was just a B-list celebrity.
She had gone through a lot of trouble to get the chance to attend tonight’s gathering. She knew that a big shot would come to the gathering today. She would not have to worry about resources for the rest of her life if she

h ooked up with him.
She had long noticed Patrick. As soon as Patrick entered the door, she could tell that the aura of a superior on him was something others didn’t
possess.
Although Patrick kept a low profile and no one knew his identity, Rose knew very well that the more powerful a person was, the more low-key he would be.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Rose had guessed everything, but she did not expect Patrick to be so handsome. With his outstanding appearance, even if he did not have money, there would probably be many women coming after him.
Patrick sat there coldly. His aura was oppressive, and his expression was cold. He was incompatible with the atmosphere in the hall, and no one dared to disturb him.
However, Rose could not hold back her eagerness to get close to him. She wanted resources, fame, and this handsome and charming man.
She mustered her courage and sat down beside Patrick.
She had thought that Patrick would give her a certain answer regardless of whether he liked her or not. Maybe he would tell her to get lost.
In the end, Patrick only loosened his tie without saying a word.
Rose’s eyes lit up. “Was this.... a tacit approval?” she wondered.
She reached out to pour wine for Patrick and raised the glass to Patrick. Her voice was as gentle as the breeze. Care fora drink?”
Patrick saw that Violet was still looking at him. It was unknown what she’ was thinking. However, he took the glass of wine from Rose.
He raised his glass and downed it in one gulp.
Patrick’s fingers touched Rose’s when he was taking the wine. For a moment, Rose felt her heart beating wildly and her hand was a little numb..

She mistakenly thought that Patrick was interested in her. She could no help but move closer to him.
Patrick finished his drink and placed the glass on the table. When he looked up again, he realized that Violet had already retracted her gaze and turned her back to him.
Patrick felt extremely uncomfortable.
Rose looked at Patrick in a daze and continued to pour him wine. With a dark expression on his face, he continued to drink silently.
Megan, Violet, and Skyler turned around and planned to go to a corner to find a seat.
Megan had been observing Violet’s gaze for a long time. She asked, “The woman beside Patrick is wearing the same clothes as yours!”
Only then did Violet notice the clothes she was wearing. She turned to look at Rose. It was true.
Violet said in a mu ffled voice, “I didn’t notice it just now!”
Megan nodded and said in a serious tone of voice, “I understand. It’s not embarrassing to wear the same outfit. Whoever is uglier will be embarrassed!”
Violet was originally not in a good mood. Now that she heard Megan say this in such a tone, she felt inexplicably amused. She curled her lips into a smile. “She’s a celebrity. She looks better in her
clothes than me!”
Megan pouted and said straightforwardly and seriously, “Not all celebrities are beauties. You're prettier than her!”
Seeing how serious Megan was, Skyler smiled and nodded in agreement. “Indeed, you're much prettier than her!”
Violet smiled and said, “Alright, you two are good-looking as well!”
Skyler laughed out loud. “Is this mutual flattery?”
Violet shook his head with a smile. “No, I’m returning
Skyler smiled and said to Megan, “See? This is what |
conversation’!”
Megan's little face tensed up a little. “Violet, don’t you think that celebrity looks like someone?”
Violet was a little surprised. She looked up at Rose and could only see Rose's side profile.
She asked, “Like who?”
Megan pursed her lips. “Wendy Tyler!”
Violet's expression changed slightly, but she did not reply.
Skyler was curious. “Who is Wendy Tyler?”
