"I'm okay," Violet reassured, running her fingers through her hair.Since they had a shared history of growing up together, she found it difficult to dismiss him outright.Oliver seemed not to hear her reassurance. He looked at her intently, concern evident in his voice. "Where have you been? Why wa
Oliver ignored Emily completely, his attention fixed on the door.Emily was not disappointed despite this. Oliver had no chance now that Lucius had admitted to being in a relationship with Violet. It was an opportunity for her in this case. So, she stopped feeling jealous of Violet's good fortune."
Opting not to engage in an argument, Lucius asked with a serious expression, "Violet, would you like to be my girlfriend?"His sudden compliance surprised Violet. Since when had Lucius become so accommodating?In just a matter of seconds, Lucius's authoritative voice echoed, "Now that I've asked, yo
Lucius rose. His towering presence made the small room seem even more cramped. He strode past Violet and entered the bedroom without a second thought.Violet quickly followed, objecting, "You can't possibly think of working here!""Actually, I do," he stated matter-of-factly before picking up her la
Despite his apparent discomfort, Lucius had made the decision to stay at Violet and Naomi's place. Violet couldn't understand his reasoning.A sense of reluctance rose in her heart as she attempted to reach out and smooth out the furrow in his brow.But suddenly, Lucius rolled over.Taken aback, Vio
Ignoring Oliver's perplexed expression, she raced to Patrick's side and asked anxiously, "How's Emily? What happened?"Belle raised her head from Patrick's hug and glared at Violet with visible animosity.Then, she pushed Violet and accusingly asked, "Why are you here? To gloat over Emily's misery?
Oliver gently comforted her, softly advising, "Don't be reckless anymore, Emily."Emily's voice broke as she recalled his harsh words. She accused, "You told me to leave, to vanish from your life. It seemed like dying was the only way I could truly leave."Her statement left Oliver feeling a mix of
"He's quite a looker, the man who came to see you," Scarlett teased, giving Violet a suggestive wink.Violet's mind immediately went to Lucius.However, in the office, Lucius was always referred to as Mr. Davis. If it had been him, Scarlett would've mentioned him by name. Plus, if Lucius really want
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
