Love Addiction: Doting On My Love

Chapter 149

Deep in thought, Emily contemplated her predicament.

Days passed routinely. Since that encounter, Lucius had once again vanished from Violet’s life.

She initially felt disheartened but soon regained her composure, reminding herself that love was not the

only important aspect of life. What mattered more was working hard to support herself.

Violet resumed her diligent work routine, being the first to arrive and the last to leave.

One day, Estelle entered with a sense of excitement, holding a stack of documents.

She clapped her hands to capture everyone’s attention, announcing. “Everyone, stop for a moment.

We just landed a big contract. Because of this, our year–end bonuses are set to increase

by at least fifty percent compared to last year.”

The room erupted in cheer, with a colleague even rushing forward to embrace Estelle.

Estelle stepped back and reminded everyone, “While we celebrate, let’s not forget the hard work

ahead. But we need to also acknowledge the star of this achievement.”

Her sparkling gaze shifted to Violet, and she disclosed, “The reason they re–signed with us was largely

thanks to one of our designers. Her superb designs and attentive service won over the

client. The star of the day is–Violet.”

Estelle then approached Violet’s office and gently coaxed her to come out.

Violet just received the news. She felt a mix of joy and awkwardness, unsure of how to act under the

spotlight. She had simply done her duty, but with extra dedication.

She received a round of applause from everyone, including those who had previously been hostile and

called for her dismissal. Now, they looked at her with respect, envy, and appreciation.

This event significantly improved her previously marred reputation within the company.

Only Emily was irritated in the midst of everyone else’s joy. She clenched her hand in frustration

and almost snapped her own fingers.

Estelle continued, “The higher–ups have allocated a special fund as a reward for our department.

We’re celebrating this Friday, and nobody’s going home sober!”

With that declaration, the mood reached a new high.

Externally calm, Violet felt a surge of excitement within. She now firmly believed that hard work

could compensate for any natural shortcomings..

Though she had not been born an artist, her relentless effort earned her a place in the world of

design.

Violet returned to her office, quickly regaining her composure before diving back into her work.

In the afternoon, Estelle presented Violet with a blueprint, explaining. “These are the plans for our

Project AKK bid. They were returned for corrections, and you’re tasked with revising them.”

Project AKK represented a big opportunity this year. Success in this project would significantly boost

the company’s standing.

The only remaining hurdle was perfecting the blueprints.

this detail.

Essentially, the company that perfected the blueprints would secure the collaboration with AKK.

Violet felt both privileged and nervous about being entrusted with such an important task. She was

hesitant to accept the challenge.

She doubted her abilities, admitting. “I’m not sure I’m up to this.”

Estelle was full of confidence in Violet, raising her fist in encouragement. She said, “You have great

skills, and I trust you.”

Violet wanted to establish her worth. This vote of confidence gave her more power. She ultimately

agreed to the responsibility, saying, “Alright, I’ll do my best to get it right.”

“Excellent.”

“Can’t you get anything right? This print is all wrong!”

At the doorway, a colleague confronted Emily furiously, tossing materials at her in frustration.

Estelle shared a helpless look with Violet.

She stepped out of her office and warned Emily, “Your probation lasts one more month. Without any

improvement, you’ll be let go.”

Violet chose to ignore this and concentrate on her task, which was to analyze the blueprint and acquire

information. She quickly became absorbed in her work.

The week was hectic for Violet. She dedicated herself to revising the blueprints, researching.

redesigning, and participating in meetings with her manager.

Occasionally, she led group discussions among designers, debating over minute details for hours.

Despite the demanding workload, Violet found fulfillment and enjoyment in her work. She had found her

battleground and was enjoying herself.

Though she was exhausted, she worked tirelessly to polish every detail.

As the week neared its end, Violet completed the draft before the Friday gathering.

Estelle wore a satisfied smile and said, “We’ll submit this for review on Monday. After the review, it

goes straight to AKK. I’m confident in our blueprint. We might even be the first to submit, which should

impress AKK.”

Relieved, Violet exhaled deeply.

Estelle reminded Violet as she was leaving, “Keep a copy of the blueprint. They might request further

tweaks.”

After a final review, Violet saved the blueprint on her computer, locked her office, and left.

As the day came to a close, the team energetically assembled and moved toward the downstairs

party location.

“Is everyone here?” Estelle asked.

“All except for Emily.”

Estelle acknowledged, “Oh, she messaged me, saying she’s unwell and prefers to rest at home.”
