In just a few words, the woman's "purpose" was revealed.
With this, Mrs. Clark probably can't pretend to be pitiful anymore.
Sophie stepped in and cut off Mrs. Clark's attempts at slander right from the start, let alone Mrs. Clark's wish to rekindle old ties with Patrick.
There is no old affection, only old grudges.
Mrs. Clark's delicate brows slightly furrowed, and with just this one frown, there's a kind of heart-wrenching sorrow.
Sophie now understood why Patrick was harmed by his wife back then.
Such a delicate wife, who wouldn't want to protect her well?
If the truth hadn't been laid bare in the end, Patrick wouldn't have believed his wife actually plotted with others to harm him.
"Patrick…" Mrs. Clark didn't say anything, completely ignoring Sophie's words, just looking pitifully at Patrick as if he was the only one in her eyes.
Such an expression really easily stirs a man's protective instincts, making them rush to protect her.
Whatever she says goes.
