Howeves Patrick urned his gaze towards Gilda

“Cat Are callest just now Patrick began.

Refering to Aric, Gilla had a hunch about the matter. “Is it about what happened at the fashion

Patrick nodded in confirmation.

Tve identified the person who sabotaged the costumes. He confessed to entering backstage, using scissors to damage the runway outfits, and concealing a blade in the model’s high heels,” he replied.

Gilda clenched her teeth in angen

“What else she asked.

Moreover, Patrick continued. “I’ve investigated. He’s an orphan, no ties, no family.

“His bank account received a transfer of 200 thousand dollars the day before the incident, but the origin of the transfer remains unknown.

“Furthermore, he remained silent, confessing only to committing the acts and refusing to disclose who instructed him”

Gilda grasped the situation. “So, we can’t uncover anything else?”

Patrick hummed in response.

*Clearly, someone is lurking in the shadows, targeting you. It’s hard to defend against. Take a moment and seriously consider if you’ve inadvertently provoked someone,” he said.

Gilda shrugged, saying, “I.., don’t have any clue.

“Well, there are quite a few who can’t stand to see me succeed.”

Patrick’s expression darkened further. “Could it be trouble stirred up by that guy, Jensen?”

Madeleine is a prime example.

“Could it be the Donovan family?” he asked.

Gilda shook her head. The Donovan family has declined, and it’s unlikely they could easily come up with such a large sum of money.”

Gilda made a valid point.

But apart from this, Patrick couldn’t come up with anything else.

“Patrick, now that he’s confessed, let’s handle it as per the Lynch family’s customs!” Gilda said.

Patrick understood her intention.

“Provoking someone from the Lynch family means accepting the consequences. I’ll take care of this matter,” he said.

Gilda nodded reassuringly.

However, Patrick remained concerned about her. “Gilly, Allath is dangerous. Grandpa and I worry about you there alone. How about leaving everything at Glory Corporation and returning to the Frencia headquarters?”

Gilda promptly rejected Patrick‘ suggestion.

“No, brother! I made a bet with Steven to enhance my performance within a year. If I fail, I’ll leave, but it’s too early for that now,” she said.

“But…” Patrick wanted to say more.

Gilda continued, “Brother, I know you’re concerned about me.

“But I can’t abandon this halfway. How will others perceive me afterward?

“Besides, I’m the Lynch family’s daughter. If I easily give up, it would shame our family.”

Gilda’s words rendered Patrick speechless.

“Gilly…” he began.

“Alright, Patrick. Don’t worry. I’ll take care of myself.

“Honestly, just give me a year.

“If I lose the bet with Steyen in a year, I won’t need anyone to tell me. I’ll come back disappointed myself,” she said.

Patrick couldn’t do anything about Gilda.

However, he couldn’t let Gilda risk her life, so he relented, “Alright, you can go back, but you must accept the bodyguards I’ve arranged for you.”

Gilda blinked and hesitated for a moment.

Noticing Patrick‘ unfavorable expression, she agreed, “Alright, I agree! It’s just bodyguards. It’ll reassure you and grandpa while ensuring safety. It’s a win–win.”
