Chapter 80 “Well, good night,” whispered Armand. “Good night,” responded Samantha. When the call was over, Samantha looked forward to tomorrow. She stood in front of the window and stared at the night outside the window, gently stroking her new manicure, with a malicious smile on her face. Meanwhile, in the brightly lit villa of Goldbay Estate. The dinner was over. Violet sat on the sofa and watched TV. She sat cross-legged with popcorn in her arms, staring at the huge screen! Unfortunately, the paparaz zi caught Violet and Jack on camera again, which made Violet lament the perils of living in the information age! The news report was informative. “Jack, the president of the Yancey Group, together with Miss Yeager, went back to Goldbay Estate without their assistants and bodyguards! A low-key secret date! Maserati, a custom car worth more than 20 million dollars, was driven by Miss Yeager herself in their dating. We can presume that it was Ms. Yeager’s first time to drive such a car, and it is likely that Mr. Yancey acted as Miss Yeager’s coach back then. When Miss Yeager got out of the car, she was wearing Mr. Yancey’s suit! Just imagine how close they were to each other…” Hearing her words, Violet stuffed the popcorn into her mouth one by one nonchalantly. Jack also heard these reports. He stood not far away, looked at her face, and asked, “Miss Yeager, how do you feel?” Violet turned around and said, “That’s funny. It’s just a broken car. Why would I need a coach?” They looked at each other. Jack nodded, feeling that Violet’s thoughts were unique. At this time, Jack’s phone rang. Standing in front of the window, he answered his phone, “Hello.” “Mr. Yancey, I’ve identified the men who were after you last time. It has nothing to do with Mrs. Yeager. The mastermind is Evan Hubert, your rival,” said Michael. “Okay,” answered Jack lightly as he believed that Michael would handle it well.
Without asking Jack’s whereabouts this afternoon. Michael continued, “Mr. Yancey. The reporters gathered at all the gates of the company today and wanted to interview you.” Jack answered indifferently, “I see. They got what they wanted outside my house. You haven’t seen the latest news, have you?” As Jack said this, he glanced back at the TV and the girl eating popcorn. Michael hadn’t surfed the Internet yet. He asked disappointedly, “You went back together?” “Yep,” answered Jack. Michael was silent. After a while, Jack asked him, “Anything else?”
“No, good night.” “Good night.” After the call, Jack held his phone and walked toward Violet. He didn’t avoid her when answering the phone, which made Violet feel a little surprised and impressed. She thought, “He really trusts me!” Before Jack could speak, Violet’s phone rang. She held the popcorn bucket with one hand and took out her phone with the other hand, staring at the strange number on the screen for a long time. She thought in confusion, “Who is this? There were a few people who have my number.” Jack sat down on the sofa and suggested, “Theo?” Turning his eyes to look at Violet, Jack picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. The living room became quiet. “Pick it up. What are you waiting for?” urged Jack. Violet answered in front of Jack and turned on the speaker, “Hello.” “Violet.” 1/3 16:01 Chapter 80
It was Theo’s voice. Violet looked up at Jack and saw him smiling slightly. She asked indifferently, “Who are you?” Theo didn’t say he was her father. He said thoughtfully, “I’m Theo. I’m wondering if I could see you tomorrow?” Violet said deliberately with a smile, “To whom do you intend to arrange my marriage? I live in the Yanceys. Have you seen the news? I’m on the headline.” Jack really wanted to strike her head! He thought, “What the hell is that?” At this time, Theo was sitting in front of the study window of the villa. On the laptop on the desktop was playing a video of Violet and Jack back at Goldbay Estate this evening. He didn’t doubt what Violet had just said. Theo said sincerely, “I’m not trying to get you married. I want to have a good talk with you and apologize to you.” “When?” Violet asked, “Where are we going to meet?” Theo said in a gentle voice, “I’ll send you the time and address. Good night.” She didn’t refuse. It was just a good start, and she shouldn’t talk too much on the phone. Violet agreed so quickly because Julian kept urging her to see Theo. She thought Theo deserved what he suffered anyway. Even if Violet could ignore it, she had to help his mother avenge him. However, she did not anticipate the unforeseen events that would occur the following day… Everything was taking an unusual course. “Are you going to see him alone?” asked Jack as he crossed his legs elegantly. Violet was silent for a moment before she answered, “Or what? Am I going with you?” He slightly raised and answered pleasantly, “I’m busy. My time is money. You can’t afford it.” “So you’re wasting a lot of money talking nonsense with me now, right?” Jack did not want to bicker with Violet, so he smiled lightly and responded, “You can go alone. Theo must want to beg for mercy, and he won’t hurt you. By the way, I accidentally found out something that needs to be told.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“What’s the matter?” asked Violet. Jack replied, “Last time when Michael sent you back, you were hunted down by someone just after getting out of the car. They were not sent by Theo.” “I know.” Violet smiled and continued, “They were sent by Yvette.” Jack was stunned. He blurted out, “How did you know that?” Violet shrugged, stood up, and chuckled. “She admitted it herself. It’s getting late. Time to sleep.” After saying that, she turned around and walked upstairs. Jack’s eyes fell on Violet’s back. He didn’t realize he was a little in love with Violet. And he didn’t dislike her at all. Jack didn’t withdraw his gaze until Violet disappeared at the corner of the stairs. Sitting in the back of his chair, he recalled everything that had happened today. Every moment of being with her was particularly clear in his mind. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but smile. In the guest bedroom upstairs, Violet went in and gently closed the door. She leaned behind the door, looked up at the ceiling, and took a deep breath. She couldn’t help but think of the scene when she was climbing the mountain with Jack. Thinking about it, she was a little confused. She knew what it was, but she didn’t dare to think about it. Jack was the most honorable man in the world and a legendary entrepreneur. It was impossible for such an excellent person to have no girlfriend, but he didn’t, so… He was so calm and sane that he wouldn’t easily step into a relationship since he put his work in the first place. Therefore, she didn’t want to put too much effort into it. She thought, “I’ll take him as my friend.” After taking a shower and going to bed, she emptied her mind. 2/3 16:01 Chapter NO
Violet felt thirsty and in a daze. When she sat up, the light in her room automatically lit up. She found that there was no water in the cup. She thought, “Annoying smart home” Then, she put on her shoes and walked out of the room. When she arrived at the staircase and was about to go downstairs, she stood still. Because around the corner of the stairs, Jack in his nightgown was walking up step by step, a cup in his hand, an antipyretic patch on his forehead, his eyes down. Violet saw him sneeze and then smelled Noticing a pair of pink shoes, Jack stopped and looked up. With his gentle and calm eyes on his face, they looked at each other 3/3
