Emily's absence was hardly noticed. She was seen as a minor figure by most. Her previous carelessness had caused trouble for others. They were resentful of her and not eager to see her.The group then proceeded into a private room.Their successes were largely thanks to Violet's contributions.Insid
This situation getting legal attention would escalate matters significantly.Estelle looked at Violet, stating, "Only you, I, and the general manager had access to the design."Considering the general manager's stake in the company, his involvement seemed unlikely. Estelle, a respected veteran, also
Violet had just begun to regain her spirits, but they were crushed by Oliver's comments, which left her with no hope.She bit her lower lip so hard that it bled.Violet eventually gave a forced, icy smile and suggested, "Ms. Ruiz, perhaps we should involve the police."Her suggestion was met with wi
"Do you know how this should be handled?" Lucius asked, his gaze icy as he turned to Estelle.Estelle responded promptly, "Yes, I understand."Lucius began to leave, the crowd parting for him.Then he paused and turned, staring angrily at Violet. He scolded, "Why are you still standing there?""Huh?
Lucius owned the company. Typically, he would intervene in a corporate capacity instead of a personal one.His actions today were obvious. He even went so far as to enlist the help of an IT genius. She could not help but feel compelled to express her skepticism.Lucius did not even look at her. He
Upon hearing Emily's name, Estelle's face grew somber, and she replied, "Legal action is inevitable. She will face the consequences of her actions.""Oh."Violet felt no sympathy for Emily. Violet was not generous enough to speak on her behalf."Aren't you and Emily sisters? It's puzzling how one is
"Get the fuck over here!" Lucius demanded fiercely.On the other end, Kristian raised his phone and pretended not to hear him, exclaiming, "Can't hear you, bad signal! Talk later."He thought to himself, Lucius wants to meet. Given his black belt in martial arts, going to him would be suicidal. Aft
Resigning herself to an unexpected role as his cook, Violet quietly complied.She took some time to cook for him, carefully preparing a few dishes, cautiously making enough to avoid him overeating.Serving the food, Violet felt unsure of her culinary skills, still recalling Kristian's disdainful rea
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
