Was Lucius lying, as she had, or was he genuine? She tried to decipher his expression, but he left without any sign of hesitation. Was he truly just measuring her waist?Soon after, Lucius returned, tossing a piece of clothing before her. He went on to say, "Since you're knitting a scarf for me, I b
Violet was perplexed.He raised his chin, pointed at her eyes, and said, "You look like a panda. Did you have a date with someone?"His face was solemn, as if he would strangle her if she admitted to it.Violet quickly shook her head, denying, "How could I? I was busy knitting a scarf.""All night l
Henry's firm was noted for only hiring the most skilled designers, many of whom rose to prominence at a young age and created highly sought-after designs.Clients were chosen by the designers at his studio, not the other way around. Ordinary people had a difficult time getting garments from his wor
"Ms. Violet, you will learn once you arrive," George said, with his forehead veins prominently visible.As a law-abiding citizen, he rarely drove at maximum speed, but with Lucius's life in jeopardy, he was compelled to accelerate.Violet refrained from asking additional questions since she noticed
She would do anything to stop the fight.Lucius let out a slight smirk, complementing, "That's better."He then casually put his arm around her and led her to a seat next to him, remarking, "Now come and have something to eat."The others were dumbfounded, exchanging puzzled glances."Is that really
Megan calmly taught Violet the rules, explaining, "It's quite simple. Spin a bottle on the table, take the number of rotations, multiply it by one hundred, raise that to the fourth power, then divide by the sixteenth power of the rotations, and finally extract the cube root of this figure."They tho
Violet, without thinking, read it aloud.This time, Megan was the winner. She approached Lucius, pushed him onto the couch, and kissed him fervently.The room erupted in cheers and claps, but Violet felt a knot in her throat, unable to crack a smile or relax her facial muscles.Something about seein
Violet gazed up at Lucius, his brow deeply furrowed in anger. It left her perplexed about her mistake."I should head home," she murmured softly.However, Lucius swiftly threw her onto the sofa, with his weight pinning her down, leaving her feeling trapped and defenseless.Her cries of alarm were mu
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
