My Wife Is An All-Around Expert by Elton Joe

Chapter 42

Megan froze there. She suddenly understood what Violet meant. She forced a terrible smile, looking

strange and pitiful.

Violet reached her hands out to hold Megan and comforted her silently. She wanted to give her

courage.

Violet returned to Hersey Court.

She had a shower and changed into her pajamas. Then she heard the sound of the door opening

outside.

She thought about what had happened in the bar that night and saw the gift box on the bed. She

pursed her lips and walked outside with the gift box in her hands.

As soon as Patrick hung his coat on the coat hanger, he saw Violet walk to him with a dark blu

box.

He frowned and asked, “You haven’t gone to bed yet?”

Violet nodded and handed over the box with the cuff links in it. “This is for you. Thanks for saving me

last night.”

When Patrick saw the box, he seemed to hear a sentence, “Did you fall in

love with that woman?”

His face immediately sank. And he sounded a little unpleasant. “I told you. All normal men would save

you in such situations. Moreover, you are my legal wife.”

This was a gift Violet bought for Patrick. There was no reason for her to

take it back.

She said, “That’s different. Even though I’m your legal wife, you didn’t have to save. I prefer making

everything clear. I don’t want to owe anyone anything.”

Patrick’s eyes flickered. He had a lot of thoughts in his mind at that

moment. He wondered whether Violet had other ideas and was taking the opportunity to send him a

gift.



Anyway, cuff links were quite a private gift. The relationship between them would sound a little strange

if he put on the cuff links she bought. She might expect something else from him.

He also remembered that she readily agreed to call him “honey” when he teased her.

Yes, legally speaking, they were a couple, and she could call him “honey.” But they had no feelings for

each other. Patrick didn’t want them to get involved with each other emotionally.

Thinking of this, his handsome face sank. He said, “Violet, you don’t need to send my cuff links. Don’t

try to get things that will never belong to you. I will treat you well. But I won’t show mercy if you dare to

pester me.”

Violet’s expression changed. She was a little angered.

She could tell that Patrick was a stubborn man..

His arrogant ego was challenged, and he didn’t think getting the marriage certificate with her was a big

problem, so he agreed.

However, he realized the problem now. He feared she would fall in love. with him, pester him, or refuse

to leave.

He was afraid that one year later, she would refuse to divorce him.

Violet’s family didn’t like her, but she had always been popular in school since childhood. She had

never been warned like this.

Usually, she was the one being flattered. Now, she felt that she was humiliated.

She stared at Patrick and said with a bit of anger. “Mr. Hersey, just relax. Pestering a man is something

I will never do in my life. That’s too embarrassing.”

Patrick could tell that she was angry. He raised his eyebrows and said, “That’s the best. I hope that you

are not saying this impulsively.”

Violet wanted to curse him, but she thought it was too embarrassing to lose her temper because of this.

Her face sank, and she said angrily, “Mr. Hersey, don’t be so arrogant, okay? Maybe you will fall in love

with me? It’s possible, right?”



Patrick froze. He didn’t expect Violet to ask about that.

He said firmly, “You can rest assured. That will never happen.”

Violet pulled her lips with sarcasm. She then said, “That’s good. I can rest. assured since you said so.

Seeing that she wasn’t entirely convinced, Patrick calmly looked at Violet and said, “Let me explain to

you in this way. I used to like smoking a lot. But at a certain point in time, I decided to quit smoking.

Then I did it. Love might be important to others. But to me, it’s nothing.”

Violet smiled. To be exact, he was a cold and indifferent man.

But it had nothing to do with her.

She didn’t like him. She was only grateful to him.

She looked at Patrick and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, “Mr. Hersey, I understand what

you mean. You don’t need to warn me again. and again. I know who I am and what I should do. Our

marriage is a deal. We both need something from each other. I got it. What you worry about will never

happen.”

As she said this, she looked at the cuff links in her hands and smiled with self-mockery, “Sorry, I

shouldn’t have sent you this. I won’t do that again.”

Violet took the box with the cuff links, turned around, and was about to

leave..

For some reason, Patrick was a little unhappy in his heart. He stopped Violet with a frown. “Violet!”

get along well with him.”

Violet nodded and said, “Okay, Mr. Hersey. Got it.”

After saying that, Violet left.

Patrick rubbed between his eyebrows. He felt that Violet’s attitude had made him uncomfortable..

Violet returned to her room, threw the cuff links in the bedside table drawer, and went to bed.

Patrick stood still for a while and went to the guest room to shower.



After the shower, he stood in front of the master bedroom for a few seconds. Thinking of the

conversation between him and Violet, he found. it unsuitable for him to sleep with Violet in his arms

tonight.

He turned around and walked to the guest room.

Before going to sleep, he popped a peppermint in his mouth. Since quitting smoking, he developed the

habit of eating peppermint. occasionally.

It was easy for him to fall asleep with Violet in his arms the night before. He thought that it would be the

same case today. He thought that he would fall asleep quickly.

However, he remained awake after lying on the bed for over three hours.

Patrick felt annoyed. He sat up and thought of Violet, who was sleeping next door. He hesitated for a

few seconds. Then, he decided to take sleeping pills. He didn’t think that he had any other choice. After

that, het covered himself with the quilt and continued to sleep.

The next morning.
