Once Violet departed from the Wickham household, she found herself with no specific plans.Her phone rang. It was Naomi."Vivi, hurry back home! Master Lucius has arrived!"Confused and alarmed, Violet wondered, ‘What? Why on earth is that man in my house?’Hurrying back, Violet barely had time to i
It was empty, but the disheveled bed was a reminder of the recent events.Her heart clenched with anxiety and unspoken emotions."Has Master Lucius left?" Naomi asked, returning from the balcony."Probably... He's gone," Violet responded, flushed.Naomi gave her a perplexed glance, but didn't press
Lucius proclaimed arrogantly, "Since you're the one who kicked me, it's only right that you should be the test subject."He was defiant, and didn’t wait for her to answer before going in for a passionate kiss.Violet fought with all her strength, shaking her head in defiance and attempting to say an
Violet consented, though she was still wary of engaging with Lucius. His actions the night before still made her heart race."I can do that," she said casually, expecting the secretary to get in her way.It wouldn't be her problem if the secretary blocked her from seeing him.Violet arrived at the o
"Violet," Lucius called out, his voice now unexpectedly raspy.She believed she heard him suggest a visit to the hospital. Dismissing the idea, she said, "It's just a fever. I'm strong. I don't have to go to the hospital for this. I'm very thirsty, though."Once more, their lips met.The intensity o
In her agitation, she spoke without thinking.Having suffered once in love, she refused to belittle herself again.She knew that the torment of living with a man whose heart belonged to another would be far worse than being rejected outright by Oliver. She didn't desire such a life.Lucius's express
"Hmm," the woman murmured, evidently flattered by Lucius's attention.Violet was engulfed in discomfort as she felt a scalding pain spreading from her hand and foot to her heart, lingering painfully.She was baffled as to why Lucius, with his heart set on Agatha, had summoned her upstairs, seemingly
"I'm coping," Violet replied with a polite smile.However, someone else saw this scene in a different way.His decision compelled the managers and top executives to join him at the subpar dining facilities.The cafeteria's offerings paled in comparison to outside options, and Lucius found the food u
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
