After the cloth was removed, Lillian immediately relaxed. She was gagged for a long time, and she could not help but cough, and her face turned red.
Patrick's feet appeared in Lillian's vision. Lillian paused for a moment. Suddenly, someone grabbed her chin and lifted it. She saw eyes that were full of danger.
"I am in a bad mood right now. I don't have much patience. You better answer whatever I ask you."
Lillian's heart skipped a beat. Patrick pinched Lillian harder and showed no mercy. It was so painful that Lillian was in tears.
"Why are you targeting Gloria?"
Gloria!
It was Gloria again!
Why was everyone so concerned about her?
Lillian did not admit that she was jealous, but she had no way to fight back at the moment. She had to compromise.
She trembled and said, "I did not target Gloria."
"I do not listen to nonsense." As he said this, Patrick put more force on Lillian's chin with his gloved hand. He pinched so hard that it would crush her jaw.
Lillian cried in pain. She thought that she had heard the sound of her bones cracking.
"I'll speak." Lillian felt that the man in front of her was a terrifying demon. She was filled with horror and she hated Gloria.
Gloria promised to plead for her in front of Patrick!
Lillian cursed Gloria viciously silently and let out all her vicious thoughts in her heart.
But no matter what Lillian was thinking at the moment, she was afraid of this demonic man.
"It's Mr. Fisher."
Mr. Fisher?
Patrick raised an eyebrow. "Derrick?"
"Yes. I like Mr. Fisher, but Gloria seduced him. If Gloria behaved herself, I wouldn't find her so annoying. But she wasn't! She would do anything for money. Mr. Fisher was kept in the dark and didn't know her true face. I don't want to see Mr. Fisher being seduced and deceived by a woman like her. She seduced Mr. Fisher just for his money, didn't she?"
When Lillian said these words, she didn't just tell the reason why she was against Gloria.
She was selfish, so she said so to let Patrick know how Gloria truly was.
Leonard frowned but didn't say anything. He waited quietly by the side.
Patrick's cold face was expressionless.
He looked down at Lillian. "Do you have any proof of Gloria seducing Derrick?"
"Yes!" Lillian's eyes flashed with anger and resentment when this topic was mentioned. "I bumped into them kissing in the stairwell!"
"You did?" Patrick asked with sharp eyes.
"Yes! I saw it. Mr. Fisher and Gloria were kissing passionately!"
Patrick's breathing became erratic instantly.
Coldness slowly appeared in his eyes. His handsome face was covered with "frost". Leonard had known Patrick for a long time. He was the first to notice the change on Patrick's face.
"Not only that, Mr. Fisher treats Gloria better than other people. The last time she fell, Mr. Fisher held her waist and helped her up. Would a well-mannered woman let a man do that to her?"
The atmosphere became oppressive. Patrick's face was utterly cold.
Patrick narrowed his eyes. "Maybe Derrick seduced Gloria, right?"
At this moment, Lillian forgot about her situation. She was full of anger, and she snorted. "How is that possible? What can Gloria be proud of? Her appearance? Shape? Background? Temperament? Or educational background?"
Lillian did not notice Patrick's expression. She said disdainfully, "Gloria doesn't have anything. Who knows what kind of despicable tricks she used to seduce Mr. Fisher? Perhaps, she was pretending to be pitiful, which made Mr. Fisher sympathize with her. After all, Mr. Fisher had never met someone like her before."
When Lillian talked about Gloria, she didn't hold back. She was full of resentment for Gloria. At this moment, she had a chance to complain to the boss, and Lillian wanted to expose Gloria's true nature at all costs.
Leonard frowned. He looked at Lillian's innocent face and felt more uncomfortable. This woman seemed to have forgotten that she was complaining to Patrick while Gloria begged him for mercy.
How ungrateful!
Patrick's expression was cold. He loosened his fingers and flung Lillian's chin. He stood up and looked down at Lillian, who was sitting on the ground. "Disgusting."
He said it with a low, cold voice and a disgusted look.
Lillian did not understand what Patrick meant. She said, "A woman like Gloria is just disgusting."
"You are wrong. You are the disgusting one."
Lillian was shocked.
Patrick said, "I finally know why Derrick gave you to Toby. Because you're disgusting."
"Me?" Lillian's face was full of disbelief. She said again, "I'm better than Gloria..."
"Don't compare yourself with Gloria. You can never catch up to her in any way."
Appearance, educational background, and family background. Three years ago, Gloria had them all.
Patrick felt bad for a brief moment, since he ruined Gloria's life.
And today, Lillian belittled Gloria over these issues.
Patrick came back to his senses after Leonard called him. He looked down at Lillian and said, "Gloria's drowning show was designed for you by Derrick."
Lillian's face instantly turned pale.
Her eyes widened. That was impossible!
"You lied to me! Mr. Fisher is a good person!"
Patrick almost laughed out loud. Derrick was a good person?
