"Ms. Walker, Ms. Cooper." Isabelle greeted them.Isabelle wore a socialite-style outfit, like always. She was also always seen with high heels. She attracted attention everywhere she went.It was the truth. Isabelle was so charming and attractive that everyone would fall for her.But when she was courting Carl back then, she had invested a lot of effort and time. In the end, they still broke up.Lucy's attitude was foul. She asked, "Violet, do you know her?"Violet guessed that Lucy must have been on terrible terms with Isabelle in the past.But Violet didn't like Isabelle that much, either.She still hadn't figured out the truth behind the gunshot yesterday. But Violet had a feeling that Isabelle wasn't as innocent as she seemed."She's Timothy's secretary. We've met before," Violet said in a low voice. She considered it a greeting toward Isabelle.Isabelle didn't expect Violet to treat her so coldly.Logically speaking, rivals would get worked up when they saw each other. T
Seth's bodyguards rushed forward to tackle Violet. Seth took the opportunity to break free. It was then that he realized that he couldn't quite move his wrist."This woman is so strong! I can't believe she's not some weak woman!" Seth thought.Whitney said anxiously, "Mommy, watch out!"Violet smiled. These people were too weak. They were no match for her.Mick hastily pulled Whitney aside so that they wouldn't get in the way. He believed in Violet's skills, but if they got too close to the fight, they might get injured.Feeling spirited, Lucy shouted, "Are the Walkers' bodyguards good for nothing? Does Mrs. Walker have to deal with the jerks on her own?"Quit standing around; just do it! If you accidentally beat someone to death, I'll take responsibility!"When Lucy shouted that, the bodyguards dashed forward. They had been conscious of Seth's identity before this."And you, come back here!" Lucy grabbed Violet's hand. "If you lose even a hair on your head, Uncle Carl will sco
Marina wasn't as innocent as she looked. When she entered the villa, it was true that she wanted to get close to Carl. But more importantly, she wanted to steal Carl's family crest.There were three great families in Orlanda, and each family had a hidden family crest.There was a legend about the crests. If someone collected the three family crests, the crests would merge into a key.The key could be used to access a world made of pure gold. That person would also become the ruler of that world.In the past, the three families worked together for the sake of this legend.But they all failed.In the end, the three families had tense relationships with each other. They seemed like friends on the surface, but they were enemies in the shadows.Even Carl's marriage with Helen was proposed for the sake of relieving that tension.Marina searched the villa for a long time, but she only had a clue that Carl had hidden the family crest in the dungeon. She had no idea about its exact loca
"You … Don't … No!" Violet was shocked. Instead of covering herself, she used both her arms and legs to push Carl away.If she didn't run now, she feared that she would not be able to escape tonight.Grabbing Violet's hands, Carl lifted her.When Carl thought that Violet's husband had even made a daughter with her, a terrifying air took over Carl.This time, he was more determined than ever.Violet bit her lip. She tried her best not to make any weird sounds while Carl attended to her.She could only explain weakly, "It's real! No one has ever touched me before!""This accursed man!" she thought, "Whitney is his daughter! Is he so blind that he can't even see that? Whitney is a chip off the old block!"Also ever since the beginning, he's the only man who has ever touched me! Why am I always the one getting punished in the end?"Violet took in a sharp breath. She was about to say something, but it turned into a suggestive sound instead. "Mm—"Feeling like he had received his r
At night, Carl came back from working overtime. Violet was holding Whitney as she hid in the bedroom.Today, everyone gave her a knowing smile when they saw her. She felt weirded out by that.As for Lucy, she simply couldn't stop laughing. She wished she could record the action last night and then play it in front of Violet."Boohoo …" Violet sobbed in her heart. "I won't do this ever again … It's so embarrassing!""Whitney, why haven't you gone back to your room?" Carl asked."Mommy said that I should sleep here tonight." Whitney didn't mind revealing that Violet was the one behind this.Violet hastily used Whitney to block Carl's line of sight.She felt guilty.She didn't even dare look at him."Go and sleep in the children's room," Carl said in a soft voice. "You're all grown up now. You can't sleep with Daddy and Mommy anymore, okay?""Why not?" Violet was panicking. "She's my daughter. She's allowed to do it if I say so!""She's also my daughter now." Carl was indiffere
"Take them," Carl ordered.Dr. Howell had said that Violet couldn't get pregnant in her current condition. If not, both she and the child would be in danger.Violet couldn't understand why Carl would suddenly give her birth control pills.Carl couldn't be bothered to explain. He said, "I told you to take them, so just take them. Why shouldn't we enjoy our time together before having children?"Just take them once. I'll use condoms in the future."He knew that birth control pills weren't good for women. He had never used condoms before, but today, he broke his record and bought a box of them.Carl suddenly blushed. Violet had no idea that he was being considerate of her.Watching him enter the bathroom, she was stunned for a long while.After a passionate session, the only thing he gave her was a box of birth control pills."Is he trying to … take responsibility?" she wondered. "But it didn't look like it! Or have I become someone for him to play with?"Fuming, Violet got some
Carl's grip on Violet didn't loosen. Instead, he held her tighter. If she truly ran away, he would be disgraced."They're a perfect match!""Only a woman as pretty as she deserves a man like him!""So romantic!""How I wish I could have just a fraction of her happiness!"The crowd chattered on. Most of them had positive things to say.Carl smiled, which made him look even better. Many girls screamed in adoration when they saw that."I miss you so much that my hand is sore," Carl spoke, half gently and half teasingly.Violet's face turned red. "You …" She was exasperated.Carl rapped on Violet's head. "You're thinking indecent things, aren't you?"Violet sucked in her breath. She felt like she was more used to Carl's cold attitude."Am I a masochist?" she wondered.Carl smiled, saying, "What I meant was, my hand was sore from holding the roses. Hurry and take them."Violet wished she could toss Carl and his roses into the next dimension. "Can someone please tell me what he'
Carl's ravaging kiss left no part of her mouth unbitten. His hands also touched her body without a care in the world.If no one were watching them, he would've done it with her right then and there.Since Violet was bitten, she decided to bite back as well.But she wasn't prepared to do that. It was too embarrassing to do it in public!She reached out and pinched Carl's waist. The more force Carl used to bite her, the stronger she pinched him. Carl was forced to let her go."You're tough," Carl said in a cold voice. When he saw Violet's swollen lips, his mood surprisingly recovered.Violet touched her itching and hurting lip. Looking at the anger in Carl's eyes, she felt even angrier.About 10 yards away, the other classmates watched the whole process."Violet, your … boyfriend is so wild!" Tia Pearce, who used to be the most beautiful girl in their class, spoke up. She even winked at Carl.Violet took a deep breath. She felt extremely embarrassed about Carl's actions.She ju
