"Actually, I think it was Linda who incited him.”
Catherine said, "We’ve known Patrick for a long time. He's actually a little similar to Ethan, but he's not as despicable as Ethan when it comes to the business world. Every step he takes is genuine, and he has never thought about taking shortcuts. To put it bluntly, he’s just indecisive when it comes to relationships. He's naive and easily cheated by innocent-looking but calculative women."
Freya was silent. She agreed with Catherine on that point.
"Look, didn't Ethan come to his senses later?" Catherine continued.
"That’s because what Rebecca loved wasn’t Ethan himself. What she loved were his bright prospects. When Ethan was left with nothing, she wanted nothing more than to get rid of him. But Linda... truly loves Patrick.” Freya suddenly lowered her voice. "If she didn't love him, she would've given up on him already. I think... now that Patrick has been released, he'll be even more grateful to Linda.”
"You've forgotten something. Wasn't there an anonymous post that discredited your godfather and the police tracked it to Jackson Corporation? If it
wasn't Patrick who did it, then it must be Linda. Patrick was locked up in prison for more than a month, so he must have thought about the ins and outs of this matter clearly. He’s not a fool," Catherine reminded her meaningfully.
Freya’s eyes brightened as she clicked her tongue." Cathy, I realize that you're becoming more and more clever."
"If I didn’t toughen up, I would've been devoured alive a long time ago. After facing people like Wesley, my mind has advanced by leaps and bounds.” Catherine let out a low sigh.
"Okay, I'll help you." Freya patted her shoulder.
"You’d better tell Rodney about it. He's a man, so he’ll want to keep up appearances," Catherine said.
