In less than ten minutes, George charged into the kitchen. “What happened? Master Lucius threw all the food away!”When Violet hurried to the study, she saw the floor littered with broken porcelain and food. The place stank with the smell of food. The bikini lady stood at the entrance while tremblin
The sun was scorching outside. In no time, Violet was covered in sweat and had to stop to wipe off her sweat. Things only got slightly better for her when George asked a servant to hold an umbrella over her head. She was pulling the weeds very seriously when a shadow loomed over her head. Violet lo
But as long as she could leave, everything else would become easier!Oliver’s words were just too tempting. She couldn’t care less about other things right now, so she just braced herself and continued lying, “I gave birth and hid the baby. Since I can’t leave, I might as well bring it back.”Lucius
After a long time passed, Violet finally remembered that she could go home. No matter what, her father would not ignore her. Since she did not want to meet Emily, she decided to call her father. “Violet?” The person who picked up the phone was her stepmother, Belle. The moment she heard Violet, her
Her dream to chase her away had finally come true, but her daughter had to suffer for it. “Aren’t you going to say anything?”She redirected her ire toward Patrick. She knew that he actually felt bothered about chasing Violet away. “I know that you’re blaming me for taking matters into my own hand
She closed her eyes. “Whatever.”She no longer had any hope for the future and would much rather he just killed her and ended everything. But Lucius let her go. “Rest well today.”Both George and Violet were shocked. They had not expected Lucius to spare her. He took revenge for all slights and mad
The trauma from the swamp made Violet unable to move. She rose out of the water, but stood where she was. Someone threw a banana peel at her head. More followed the first one. It hurt. Some children were throwing things at her nonstop. “You…” Violet glared at them, but felt dizzy from all the th
Violet felt even worse. She said nothing and just continued crying. He gave her a mocking sneer. “You poisoned their produce and ruined Imperial Palace’s reputation. The fruit farmers couldn’t sell their produce anymore. You should have known they would want revenge for that. They’re already being
Lucius simply nodded, glancing at the papers on his desk but not bothering to touch them. "Take those away and get the procedures done as fast as possible," he instructed."Sure thing, Master Lucius," Hector responded, collecting the papers. He hesitated for a moment before speaking up again. "Oh
"Is the child Lucius's?""Of course."Agatha didn't know how she managed to leave the building; she only felt a chill running through her body. When she said those words, she had no idea Violet was pregnant. What had she been trying to accomplish with her actions? Even she couldn't figure it out.
When they hopped into the car, it took Violet a while to compose herself. She gently pulled away from Oliver's grasp and said, "I'm okay now. Let me go.""How are you okay? I saw you in that accident; I can't just ignore it," Oliver retorted, his tone softening despite his frustration. He didn't wa
She couldn’t put aside her own feelings, but she had to think about the baby's health.Oliver managed a strained smile. He couldn't express what he wanted to say, so he simply helped her out of the hospital.Back at home, Violet ushered him toward the door, saying, "I'm back home now. You should go
"Master Lucius," whispered the assistant as he leaned in close to Lucius's ear.His voice was barely audible to anyone else, but Sarah watched as Lucius clenched his glass so tightly that it seemed like it might shatter.Lucius didn't say a word. After the assistant left, everything returned to norm
However, Sarah didn't seem in a hurry to leave. She maintained her smile and offered, "Is there something you need from Lucius? I can pass on the message to you."Her seemingly polite offer was clearly a jab at Violet.Violet's expression turned cold. She retorted, "Thank you, Ms. Meyer. But Lucius
Violet cried in Patrick's embrace, but she couldn't bring herself to tell him what had happened.Patrick didn’t push her, worried that she might feel worse. He left after making her a promise to reach out if she needed anything.Violet agreed, but she knew she should rely on Patrick less.After fini
The glass he held shattered due to his rage.Sarah leisurely sipped her wine, her eyes carrying a profound meaning. Lucius used her to provoke Violet, which was despicable, but she found solace in that woman's words.Swoosh! Lucius stood up abruptly."Master Lucius," a subordinate rushed into the ro
"Dad, don't worry. I'm okay," Violet reassured Patrick with a faint smile.Patrick noticed her weak smile. He wanted to ask more, but Violet quickly cut off the conversation, saying she had work to do."Okay." Patrick nodded reluctantly, deciding not to pry further. "Astrid mentioned you haven't bee
