Carl's actions were quite forceful. Just as Violet expected, she heard the sound of her clothes ripping. Violet grabbed Carl's hand hastily and bit down hard on his shoulder. She only loosened her grip when she tasted blood.Covering her cleavage, her amber eyes were filled with confusion and anger.Apart from her job as an assassin, Violet was reluctant to make enemies in her life. However, Carl had crossed the line time and time again. She had endured things and retreated repeatedly, but he was taking it too far!If Violet hadn't needed a backup plan, she would have castrated Carl right there and then."Mr. Walker." Violet's voice trembled with restrained fury. "I've found the traitor in the villa, and your marriage issue has been resolved. I'll be taking Whitney with me when we leave later. Please don't bother us again in the future."Seeing the determination in Violet's eyes, the air of indifference around Carl became even more overwhelming.He seemed to have forgotten th
Violet brought the owner of the bicycle, Lia, to the basement. Lia looked at her in fear as she said, "Violet, I'm really not the traitor. Trust me, I'm innocent!""You're the only one who uses the bicycle. The key is in your hands. Moreover, why are there tire marks in the backyard?" Violet asked."The backyard?" Lia shook her head in disbelief. "That's impossible! I've never ridden a bicycle there before!"Violet showed Lia some pictures she had taken as evidence. "These are the photos I took."Looking at the photos, Lia explained hurriedly, "Someone must have stolen my bicycle. Violet, I didn't do it!""I've observed your behavior for the past few days. You've been acting weird, and you haven't been doing your work seriously. I even found a remote control on your bed," Violet said in a low and cold voice. "How do you explain that?"Carl looked at Violet. She rarely showed her current demeanor—cold, fearless, ruthless, and a bit fierce. But she was so perfect that it was endear
"This is my daughter, Whitney Cash, and this is Mick Brown. He's my daughter's friend." Violet introduced the children to Nathaniel.Nathaniel was shocked. "Your … daughter?"Whitney chimed in, "That's right! Daddy and Mommy are deeply in love!"Violet was rendered speechless. She smiled awkwardly at Nathaniel.Nathaniel had sent people to investigate Violet's background yesterday. However, there was no information that indicated she had a daughter, let alone that she was married. What was going on?But why was her daughter's surname Cash?A complex mix of emotions appeared in his eyes.Nathaniel pulled Whitney to his side and asked, "What would you like to eat? I'll order it for you."Whitney could not find it in her to dislike Nathaniel after making it clear that her parents were deeply in love. She quickly got along with him.It would be wise for her to understand her potential opponent thoroughly. That way, she would be able to handle the situation if the princely-lookin
When Violet woke up, it was barely dawn.She yawned before tidying herself up briefly. Then, she woke Whitney and Mick up.A chilly gust hit her the moment she opened her door.It was none other than Carl.Violet's mind whirred. Carl must have been in a bad temper after she failed to stay awake until he returned.Still, she felt there was no need for him to overreact like this."You're up?" Carl began. His tone was emotionless.Violet flashed a smile at him. "Why, good morning!"She wondered how she could possibly get him to warm up to her.Carl's eyes darkened. "Where were you last night?""I went out for dinner. I came back straight after," Violet replied honestly."And who did you go out with?""What?""What did you eat?" Carl continued."What's up with you?" she returned."Just tell me what you fucking did!" Carl bellowed suddenly. His eyes filled with rage.Violet didn't understand his sudden change of mood. Even though he knew she had been out with Nathaniel, ther
Violet could not find Whitney even after searching the entire residential area.Whitney did not answer her phone either.Eventually, Violet decided to check the surveillance cameras.She hurried to the security room and knocked the security guard out with little hesitation. Then, she checked the surveillance footage.Whitney could be seen hurrying out of the residential area on her own. Her expression was panicked.What could have happened?Could Whitney have returned to the villa to find Carl?It didn't seem possible.Violet dismissed that thought immediately.She understood Whitney well, especially in the way she was overprotective of Violet to the point where she was willing to ignore what was right and what wasn't.Today, after witnessing Carl's rage and his commands for them to leave, there was no way Whitney would ever return.Violet could only call Novya.As soon as Novya heard about Whitney's disappearance, he sighed before erupting into a fit of anger."I'm tellin
Annabel was a computer expert whose skills were unparalleled. She truly was a genius among hackers.Violet glanced at Annabel desperately. "My daughter and her friend have been kidnapped. I need to find them.""Are they the two kids we met last time for dinner?" Annabel asked.Violet nodded.Annabel's expression grew serious. "Give me your computer. Let me try."Violet's computer knowledge had mostly been self-taught. She was not particularly fond of dabbling in technology, especially not something so advanced.As a result, she had only managed to scratch the surface of it.It wasn't until she was forced to make use of her skills today that she realized they were hardly enough.Still, with Annabel's help, their search became much faster.Just then, Maverick made a call to Carl in Ausstan."Found anything?" Carl began with a question."I wish it were that easy!" Maverick sighed. "Tell you what, Whitney and Mick have been kidnapped. No amount of investigation on our side is yi
Violet froze. She was now facing the humiliation she endured six years ago. But Carl gave her complicated emotions and various anxieties.Back then, she didn't know that he was the leader of the Night Crawlers. She had imagined many possibilities.She would end his life, eat him up, tear him apart, or even wipe him from the face of the earth.Later on, she found out that he was the leader of the Night Crawlers. Now, she could only think of either hating him or hiding from him.After all, humiliation hurt, but the pain could never compare to the pain of losing Whitney.But now that Violet was facing Carl, she realized that there was nothing she could do.Her vision blacked out. Her tired and overworked body couldn't hold out any longer.…Carl stayed by Violet's side. Now that she had discovered his greatest secret, he should end her life without mercy.But he let her lay on the bed, and he even called Dr. Howell over to check on her.This was quite a puzzling decision."She'
After the meal, Whitney went to Violet's room to hang out and play.It had become true that Carl was the leader of the Night Crawlers. So, Whitney decided not to be sad or complain about it anymore.She was waiting for a chance to reveal their relationship with Carl. Then, Carl would give up on the terrorist organization for their sake. Then, Carl would be fine.So, the key was in Violet's attitude toward Carl.Taking her daughter's hand, Violet spoke. "Baby, I'll do my best to find all the antidotes for you. Then, we'll leave this place."We have to go to a place where he'll never find us, even if it means going to the ends of the earth!""Mommy," Whitney said, her heart breaking. "I asked Daddy about it. He said that the poison won't harm my body as long as I take the antidote regularly.""Even medicine can be dangerous, let alone real poison." Violet raised her voice. Then, she softened down and said, "Don't try to put us together again.""You said that you like him, right?"
