Upstairs, with her phone in hand, Estelle hesitated over whether to contact Lucius.He had cryptically requested that she instruct Violet to work overtime but hadn’t specified the task, leaving Estelle uncertain about what to communicate with Violet.Violet arrived, and discovered that the duty Este

Upon her initial meeting with Violet, Celene perceived her as pure and innocent. There was nothing special about her. A woman like her would arouse men's possessive instincts, though not necessarily compelling them to make significant sacrifices.Lucius made no response to her statements. His aloof
Throughout the conversation, Celene's smirk becomes more pronounced, causing Violet to feel increasingly uneasy. She couldn’t figure out what was wrong.Celene noticed Violet's shocked and reserved expression, and decided not to tease her anymore. "You know, at most music schools, they are unlikely
"I didn't mean... But why, Lucius? I'm not Agatha. There's no need for you to go to such lengths for me."Lucius's expression turned sinister. He twisted his lips and warned, "Why even mention Agatha? Haven't you been punished enough already? Don't you realize what your fate would be if you were Aga
Lucius was ravenous. He was quick to finish his ramen. As he pushed his bowl aside, Violet barely touched hers.Glancing up, she noticed Lucius's gaze fixed on her bowl. She promptly offered it to him, saying, "Still feeling hungry? Here, take mine."Lucius didn't hesitate to accept her offer and st
It was out of character for George to miss her call. As a butler always available around the clock, he was unlikely to turn off his phone. He was deliberately not responding.After numerous unsuccessful attempts to reach George, Violet found herself in a difficult position. She resolved to remind Ge
After spending time outside in the cool air of the backyard, she began to feel the chill and subconsciously shivered.Initially, Lucius was so infuriated that he wanted nothing to do with her. However, upon seeing her distressed state, he couldn't just ignore her.He approached and firmly grasped he
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
