Isabelle's rage seemed to reach far. Even when Isabelle was far away from her, Violet seemed to feel an ominous feeling.Violet frowned and ignored the feeling. She faced the many men in front of her coldly."Violet, give me the family crest," the man ordered icily with a tone familiar to Violet."Why should I?" Violet stood upright and scoffed.Her face was pale. She had been traveling and fighting enemies for a long time. Now was not a good time for her to attack.Although she held on, she was on the brink of exhaustion.The man couldn't calculate Violet's capabilities, but he had heard of her notoriety. He didn't dare to charge forward rashly.He could only instruct his men to surround Violet and attack her.The moment the man approached Violet, the others who had been waiting immediately circled her.Although Violet fended herself from the man's attacks, she couldn't escape from the circle easily.No!She couldn't stay here!She was clear that she shouldn't fight them.
"It's been a while, Violet. How are you doing these days?" At the Galactic League, Silvia was staring at Violet in a superior manner. She had a skull mask on. Violet was on the floor on her knees. Although she was still dressed in her hospital gown, she looked dignified. No one dared to underestimate her. "There's nothing wrong with me. I'm perfectly fine.""Are you?" The tone in Silvia's voice rose slightly. She came down from her seat and stood before Violet. "Yeah, I think you are perfectly fine. It's just that something might have slipped your mind. Where is it? " Silvia's voice was icy. "I didn't get the family crest." Violet knew what Silvia was implying. Her brows furrowed as she continued to explain, "I did go into Donald's room, but I didn't get my hands on the Whites' family crest. It seems like someone got there ahead of me, but I took the blame for them instead." "Did they shift the blame on you? Really?" It seemed like Silvia didn't quite believe her. Her tone s
"Violet, you're back." Silvia still had her mask on. She was sitting in a higher position. Her cunning eyes, tinged with intimidation, were visible through the skull mask. Even though Violet had her head down, she could still sense her intense gaze. "Yes. I will not repeat the same mistakes in the future," Violet answered. She went down her knees in an instant, hanging her head low. Her voice was low as she pleaded, "It's just that I was desperate to know where Whitney is. Ms. Grey, if you happen to know where she is, please let me know.""Yeah," Silvia simply replied as she glanced over to the seat beside her. "Violet, you must be tired after a day's work. Come sit down and rest. And I think it's better for us to talk about Whitney while you're seated."Silvia tried to sound friendly, yet Violet still sensed something was off. She frowned slightly and declined without any hesitation. "Ms. Grey, I'm not tired.""Why? Are you afraid that I might harm you?" Silvia hated reject
While Carl was investigating Whitney's, Mick's, and Violet's whereabouts, Isabelle and Marina were also making a move. They got in touch with the League quickly while they continued to find the crest in the Walker residence. "What? Is Violet also one of us now?" Once Marina got news from the League, she immediately contacted Isabelle. They were both dumbfounded when they found out about it. Isabelle's eyes dimmed. She suddenly had an idea as she thought of Donald, who was on the run, and Violet."Marina, you stay at the Walker residence to look for the crest. I need to go overseas," Isabelle said."Huh?" Marina frowned. "Does the League know about this?" Obviously, she wasn't in favor of Isabelle's decision."The League doesn't have to know about this. I will report to them personally." Isabelle didn't seem particularly happy with the interruption. She snapped, "You just have to stick to Reed. I'll handle my own stuff.""You—" Marina was infuriated. "You better make sure that n
With that thought, Isabelle narrowed her eyes. "Marina, we are both antsy now, so if something happens to me, you are dead, too. You have to help me no matter what."Her voice was low, filled with a hint of threat."I know." Marina nodded. "I can see it clearly. You'd better get rid of your baby now, or else, if Master …""I got it," Isabelle cut her off. "Try to find out more about Violet. The more detailed, the more upper hands we have.""Sure." Marina frowned, but she still did what she was told.Isabelle's face turned cold when Marina left, and she thought, "Violet, why did you come back? Since you're back, then you'll suffer!"Isabelle narrowed her eyes and decided to abort the baby and blame it on Violet.Only if Violet was the scapegoat could Isabelle protect herself.As time passed, Marina's process of gathering information about Violet quickly progressed, and Carl's search for Violet went slowly.Carl received news about Violet many times, but every time he rushed to
"Mom." Carl already knew what the board of directors would do, so he wasn't surprised when he saw Elsa and Helen."You didn't tell me about such a big matter of the company and about Lucy's incident, too. Do you still treat me as your mom?" Elsa glanced at Carl coldly and said in a low voice, "I will settle these matters with you later. Now, hold a meeting with the board of directors. We need to use all means to suppress this new company.""It's fine. I will handle all of these on my own." Carl was not happy with Elsa's plan.Else didn't expect Carl to go against her right there. She frowned and scoffed coldly."I don't care if you can handle these on your own. I will intervene on this matter no matter what." Elsa was stern on this. Elsa pulled Helen and continued, "If you get engaged with Helen right now, I'll go home. Or else, do as I say.""I can't do that." Carl frowned. "Take Ms. White and Mrs. Walker to the waiting room for some rest.""Don't you dare!" Elsa glared at h
"Violet, you killed Lucy, the person I loved most. Do you think an apology is enough?" Elsa screamed. "A person like you has to be punished heavily. Even skinning you alive is not merely enough!"Elsa sounded as though she was questioning Violet and herself at the same time.If she could turn back time, Elsa would rather Carl be with Violet. She would not risk Lucy's life anymore.Lucy … Her beloved Lucy, who was always so sweet to her! Elsa was in grief, and no matter what Violet said, it would never heal the hole in her heart.It was the same for Violet.Even though Elsa's words had pushed her patience to the limit, Violet had no thoughts of arguing back. After all, if she hadn't failed to protect Lucy, Lucy wouldn't have been ambushed, and she wouldn't have died at such a young age. She was so cute, liked Maverick so much, and was ..."Mrs. Walker, my condolences." Violet hesitated in her speech, feeling the pain of losing Lucy deeply. She didn't want to talk anymore.
Under Jane's surprised look, Violet took over Jane's document and adjusted herself before entering the meeting room.The meeting was ongoing when Violet pushed the door open."Ms. Cooper …" Ray frowned. He wanted to tell Violet that Carl had gone down looking for her.But before he could finish speaking, someone cut him off, "Are you Ms. Cooper? Our CEO is waiting for you on the 18th floor."That person was Ms. Bleu, Carl's new secretary who was promoted."18th floor?" Violet frowned at her. Ms. Bleu was beautiful and tall. She had long legs and a nice figure, Carl's type indeed."Yes. He is in room 1806." Ms. Bleu smiled decently."Ms. Smith, you've been standing for quite a while. I'm sure you must be tired. How about joining me in the waiting room downstairs for a while?" Ms. Bleu politely invited Jane and the others to take a break downstairs.While Ms. Bleu's tone was courteous, Jane, an experienced player in the business world, immediately sensed her hidden meaning.
