Following breakfast, George updated Lucius about Violet's condition. "The effects of the drug have fully subsided. Ms. Agatha is alright now, just a bit weak." Lucius acknowledged with a simple hum, maintaining his usual detached demeanor. He didn’t express any blame towards George, which eased th
Violet, who was quietly preparing her own meal, overheard their discussion. Lucius had recognized her as Agatha, and despite his hate for her, he still sought medical attention for her and even gave her days off. It demonstrated his human side.She considered doing something in return. Knowing that
George quickly approached Lucius, his tone eager. "Master Davis called. He praised the new model you developed, saying it's causing a stir globally. Sales have increased by 300% this quarter, and several international media outlets are requesting interviews..."Lucius, however, appeared indifferent
Violet gave it some thought. Then she shook her head and said, "It's fine, let it be."Money was important, yet it proved pointless for Violet, who was being imprisoned in the Imperial Palace. It was a far better choice for her to take care of a sick woman.George couldn’t believe Violet's decision.
"Do you have a place to stay after you leave?" Violet asked, attempting to strike up a discussion.There was a brief pause before Naomi answered, "Master Lucius bought me an apartment in the past, but I can't stay there under the current conditions. Don't worry, I can look after myself. I'll be fine
Both maids begged the butler."You know how much Master Lucius loves his grandmother. The last time she coughed on water, he almost threw me into the swamp! I wish to live longer.""Me too! I'll be blamed for not steadying Madam Davis when she wobbles while walking. Please, Mr. George!"George exhal
Violet thought she had misheard, but he had already stood and started walking ahead, prompting her to follow quickly. Her room was just a few steps away, hardly requiring any escort.Lucius opened the door for her when they arrived."Thank you," Violet said, yawning.Lucius lingered instead of depar
Regina warmly acknowledged the young woman in front of her, and said, "Your words resonate with me. To be honest, my grandson isn’t the easiest to interact with. His seriousness and intensity can be quite intimidating.""Yes, exactly." Violet nodded in agreement, relieved to find someone who underst
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
