Everly appeared to be staring out the window but was actually listening to what they said."From now on, if you take Aunt Violet and me out for dinner, I don't want Aunt Violet to feel uncomfortable because of how small this car is," Oliver explained innocently.Everly's heart skipped a beat, and blush began to creep up her cheeks once again. What surprised her more was that Carson agreed as though Oliver made perfect sense and responded with, "Okay.""Dad, you are now a single old man with a son. You need to maintain your image. Otherwise, when my mom comes back, she won't marry you. What happens if she goes find someone else?" Oliver added and sighed a long breath, "Then I'm going to become a poor kid without a mother.""What do you think I should do, then?" Carson asked in a tone as though he was discussing a normal matter."I don't know, but…" Oliver grabbed onto Everly's arm and rocked her back and forth, "Aunt Violet, help me.""Huh?" Everly had not expected to be involved
They finally arrived at the restaurant.Everly had 'woken up' as the car stopped."Aunt Violet, are you okay?" Oliver, who was sitting next to her, asked."I'm fine, Oliver. Thank you for your concern." Everly smiled and touched his head. They both then got out of the car together.Everly still did not look at Carson, she asked Robbie for the location of the restaurant and walked into the premises while holding Oliver's hand.Carson stood and watched their backs as they walked forward. The corner of his mouth raised slightly."Mister Baxter." Robbie came over and said respectfully, "Everything has been prepared according to your instructions. It's just that Oliver had not managed to find out what Miss Pettis would have liked. And now…"He did not finish his sentence, but Carson understood him clearly."I'll figure it out." Carson said, his eyes still locked on Everly, "You wait here.""Understood!"Robbie knew he was supposed to stand guard to prevent any disturbance and not
It was January, and it was very cold in Cannesville. However, the chilly temperature did not seem to bother Everly as she took off her coat and entered the room. She was wearing a long purple fringed dress. Her complexion looked whiter than snow as the dim lights shone on her skin.Carson stood not too far behind Everly. Just looking at her like this made his eyes slightly wet.Purple hyacinth, apologize, regret, mint, looking forward to falling in love with you again.These were the words he had always wanted to say to Everly.She used to always be behind Carson, always chasing after his footsteps, craving for his attention.This time, the table has turned.It did not matter if Everly had changed, Carson still loved her, and he wanted no one else but her."Everly," Carson called her name softly.Her skirt fluttered as she turned around abruptly, looking as beautiful as before.Everly did not move, stunned as she saw Carson staring at her like that. She quickly turned away, av
Everly was talking to Oliver throughout the entire meal, ignoring Carson on the side.She did not even look at him.Oliver had noticed this. He tried to help, but there was nothing much he could do.After all, Everly was angry when he saw her just now. It's best for Oliver not to do anything rash. Otherwise, she would even dislike him as well.That would be trouble.Oliver secretly glanced at Carson, giving him a look.Oliver and Everly were very happy during the dinner, and only Carson was silent at the side.In the end, Annie arrived with a car and sent Everly back to Orchid Garden, leaving Carson and Oliver in the restaurant. Carson watched silently as she left, his eyes looking deserted.Squeak squeak…The sound of the cart's wheels was heard as Robbie pushed out a beautifully decorated dining cart. There was a bouquet of flowers and a gift box on it."Mister Baxter..." Robbie gave Carson a worried look.Carson did not answer. He just stared at the items on the cart abse
"Miss Davidson, these are all news to me. Someone had just sent these photos to my email. I… I don't know what's going on," she said. "What photo? Why didn't I receive it?" Alice was on the verge of going insane."I've already sent it to your email, Miss Davidson. Take a look." Tracey's voice was shaking as she spoke.Alice threw her phone aside. She turned on her computer with trembling hands, entered her mailbox, and opened the email that Tracey had just sent.Between the mouse clicks, she saw those photos and videos.One was footage of Robbie handing a box to Violet. The next one showed Violet opening the box in front of him, and inside it was a beautiful blue dress. Robbie was shown bowing respectfully to Violet moments later."What… this outfit..." Alice's pupils widened. This was the dress Violet wore for the banquet! She had even laughed at her, saying that her outfit was an imitation of Everly!"No, it's impossible... This must be edited! How could Carson do this! He ob
The video was recorded from a distance, and only some vague figures could be seen.The night sky was full of gorgeous fireworks. On the top of the mountain from a distance, a person was sitting on the side, and another one was waving a sparkler.Alice could not see clearly, but she knew who was on the mountain that night.She learned that the fireworks were not set off for her. It was all for… Violet! Carson had even spent the entire night with her!Everything he did was not for Alice!"No...No!" Alice wailed, and tears kept falling off her cheeks."Argh!" she screamed loudly and swept the computer and everything off the table.Like a lunatic, Alice started smashing the items around the room, destroying everything into pieces."Lissy?" The rest of the Davidsons heard all the noises and rushed over immediately. Aunt Davidson quickly hugged Alice. "Lissy, what happened? You were fine when you came back today. What's the matter?""It's Violet, mom! That woman was with him all alo
Alice just stared at Alice in silence.Lisa had a wide grin on her face. Alice seemed to agree with her since she did not object immediately.When Lisa learned that Carson had given everyone the green light for Violet's project, she realized that her deduction was right, that there was something strange going on behind the scene. Carson would never tolerate anybody who imitated Everly like that unless he was behind everything.Lisa had spent time researching and digging for information. She eventually found all those photos and video footage, confirming her suspicions.She had wondered why Violet had refused to cooperate with her. She finally understood now.Violet…If that's the case, she is not to be blamed!"You don't have to be worried." Lisa said, "Angelica Alexander values you as her future daughter-in-law. As long as we get rid of Violet, wouldn't Carson be all yours then? In fact, I already have a plan in mind."Lisa patted Alice's shoulder. "Don't forget, Everly has al
Everly was about to push the door and enter her office, suddenly—"I knew everything!" Alice approached her and said, "You had deliberately imitated the looks of the previous girl, and it was Carson who asked you to do it!"Everly was slightly surprised. She raised her eyebrows slightly and gave Alice a strange look."Then what?" Everly asked, seeing the obvious anger in Alice's expression."Now that I know, there are some things I need to talk to you about alone!" Alice took a step closer and said, "It's important!"Everly frowned and wanted to refuse. She looked up and suddenly saw Carson standing on the upper floor.He had just come out of the elevator and so happened to see both of them there."Violet, trust me. You will be very interested in what I have to say this time!" Alice said.Everly quickly turned her face away as soon her eyes met with Carson's."Violet!" Alice said, sounding angry and anxious at the same time."Okay, let's go in," Everly replied. She could stil
