Chapter 405
Patrick’s face darkened. kyler!”
He was not afraid that Gloria would come back, but he had not explained it to Violet yet.
Also, when Gloria was overseas, she could arrange for others to target Violet, like the mosquito repellent vaporizer incident.
Now that Gloria was by Violet’s side, it was no different from keeping a poisonous snake by her side.
The more Patrick thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
He said in a low voice, “What’s her attitude towards Violet?”
Nelson looked serious. “When I went over, she was talking to Miss Webb with a smile on her face!”
To be honest, it would be fine if she deliberately targeted Violet on the surface. However, it was more terrifying if Gloria spoke to others with a smile on her face, as no one had any idea what evil schemes were hidden in Gloria’s heart.
Patrick looked stern. “What schedule do I have for lunch?”
Nelson said, “We’ve already agreed to discuss a collaboration with Mr. Finley West from Hatch Corp a long time ago. Because the time has changed twice previously, we can’t reject it this time!”
Patrick’s eyes darkened. “What about tonight? There shouldn’t be anything else, right? Book a restaurant. I’ll have a good talk with you Violet.”
Nelson looked troubled. He pursed his lips and said, “The higher–ups welcome. Gloria back. They’re holding a return party for Gloria tonight. Many higher–ups. will be there. Moreover, the whole design
department should be there. According to Miss Webb’s personality, she will definitely go to the party tonight!”
Patrick took a deep breath and said with a dark expression, “Then I’ll explain to her. personally when we get home tonight!”
Nelson nodded. “Since Gloria has returned to the country, it’s better to let Miss Webb know about what happened before as soon as possible. Try your best to let her be on guard against Gloria to avoid getting injured!”
Patrick nodded and waved his hand. “I know. You don’t have to remind me.”

Due to the return of Glória, the design department became very lively today. Many people were discussing how powerful and outstanding Gloria was.
Violet was not very nosy about this.
However, she knew very well that Gloria had abilities.
Violet hadn’t come to the company for a few days. The submission date for the next quarter’s jewelry series was about to end.
Violet sped up the time to make final adjustments to the design draft.
She had been busy all day. After work, she followed the design department and went straight to Gloria’s welcome party.
The welcome party was held at a fancy restaurant. The company booked the entire floor and welcomed Gloria back. Many people from the company went.
The party was a buffet mode.
After Violet went over, she and Sophia took some snacks to fill their stomachs.
Gloria held a glass of wine and shuttled through the crowd, welcoming everyone to come and play.
Violet lowered her head and ate a piece of cake. Just as she was enjoying it, Sophia suddenly nudged her arm. “Violet, Mr. Hersey is here!”
Violet looked up and saw Patrick and a few higher–ups enter.
Gloria greeted him with a smile, but Patrick did not even look at her.
Gloria did not seem to be embarrassed. She smiled and talked to a few higher–ups. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Patrick glanced around the hall and saw Violet eating cake in the corner like a little hamste
He could not help but smile as he walked towards Violet.
When Violet saw Patrick, hér checks puffed up as she ate.
Seeing Patrick walk over and stand in front of her, Sophia immediately tactfully slipped away.
Violet puffed up her cheeks and said, “Why are you here?”
Patrick smiled and pointed at her round cheeks with his index finger. “Why are

you like a little hamster? Your cheeks are bulging from eating!”
Violet swallowed the food in her mouth and said angrily, “I’m not like a hamster. I didn’t eat much at lunch. I’m hungry now!”
Patrick looked at her gently. “Why didn’t you have a good lunch? Did you forget that your wound hasn’t healed yet?”
Violet smiled embarrassedly, “I remember. It’s just that I was busy with the manuscript today, so I casually ate some. I didn’t expect to digest it so quickly!”
Patrick pinched her ear lovingly. “No matter how busy you are with work, you have to take care of your body!”
Violet nodded. At this moment, she saw Gloria looking at them.
She hurriedly said, “Today is Ms. Tyler’s welcome party. Don’t sit here with me all the time. Everyone will think too much and think that you don’t welcome her. I’ll just eat here. Go do your work!”
Patrick looked at her helplessly and shook his head. “Alright, I’ll go for a walk. Eat well. Also, let’s go back early later. We don’t have to wait until the party is over before leaving, understand?”
Violet nodded repeatedly. “Yes, just call me when you leave!”
Patrick smiled and shook his head. He turned around and walked towards Nelson.
He and Nelson took some items. As he took the items, he said to Nelson, “Send someone to keep an eye on Gloria. I’ve sent Gewissen and Giselle to protect Violet, but I’m still a little worried. If Gloria does anything abnormal, report to me immediately!”
Nelson nodded. “Yes, Mr. Hersey!”
Not long after Patrick left, Gloria walked over with a glass of red wine and sat beside Violet.
She smiled and asked, “Ms./Webb, why aren’t you chatting and drinking with your colleagues?”
Violet smiled and waved her hand. “I can’t drink. I’ll just eat something. Go do your thing. Don’t worry about me!”
Gloria curled her lips. “It’s fine. We’re all from the same company. They can feel free to do anything. By the way, Ms. Webb, I heard that you and Mr. Hersey are

married.”
Violet did not expect Glogia to suddenly ask such a personal question.
She pursed her lips uncomfortably. “Yes, you heard about it from others?”
Gloria chuckled, “That’s right. I heard it from my colleagues. I didn’t expect that Mr. Hersey’s marriage would be resolved in just a few months after I left the country!”
Violet felt that Gloria’s attitude was really strange.
She couldn’t help but frown. “Were you familiar with Mr. Hersey in the past?”
Gloria smiled brightly and stared at Violet. “Of course I’m familiar with him. He’s the company’s CEO and I’m the company’s ace designer. How can I not be familiar with him?”
Hearing this, Violet felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
She asked, “Then why did you leave the country later?”
Gloria sighed slightly, “Alas, don’t mention it. My boyfriend was having a fight with me. Coincidentally, I had a chance to go overseas at that time, so I left. I thought that we could both calm down, but I didn’t expect…”
Violet raised her eyebrows and looked at her curiously.
Gloria glanced at Violet and seemed a little sad. “I didn’t expect him to break up unilaterally and find a substitute to anger me!”
Violet opened her mouth in shock. “Ah, you didn’t even make it clear about the breakup. Then are you planning to reconcile with him this time?”
Gloria held Violet’s hand. “To be honest, you and I hit it off quite well. I also like to tell you the truth. I do plan to reconcile with him.”
Violet was a little puzzled. “He didn’t make things clear when he broke up with you and even found a substitute to anger you. How can you forgive him?”
Violet pursed her lips. “To be honest, isn’t he a scumbag? Don’t be deceived by him!”
When Gloria heard this, her eyes immediately turned red. “Don’t say that about him. He… He will always be the best in my heart. Moreover, he’s not a scumbag. He’s just a little extreme. He’s a very conceited person. I think he found someone
