Chapter 35
Violet was brought into the living hall. A doctor came in and dressed her wound. Since the bikini lady
had stepped on the back of her hand, it was swollen badly, and since it had been wounded before, it
looked terrible. Lucius asked the doctor to wrap it up tightly.
His gaze was cold and profound. Violet could not detect any sort of care in his eyes, nor was she able
to read
his thoughts.
lodine was put on her forehead wound as well. Then, Lucius ordered a servant to take her to the
bathroom and
change her clothes.
Once Violet took a bath and was clean, she came out wearing a white dress. It fitted her pale face and
showed off just how sickly she was.
She wa
was shepherded to the helicopter again.
Lucius brought her to Balaka City once more. After a moment, they went to a club.
“Send her in.”
He then went into a secret room and stared at the screen in front of him for a long time before he said,
“Bring
her out.”
His subordinate brought her out of the room, and they walked down a long corridor. Violet thought that
Lucius
had gotten another man to scare her, just like last time, so her palms were covered in sweat.
She bumped into a familiar person when they turned a corner. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“Emily?”
Violet was not expecting to run into her half-sister here.
The moment Emily saw her, her eyes flew open, and she screamed. Then, she fell backward. Her back
hit the
wall and she started trembling.
“Emily!” The door across from them opened, and Oliver rushed out.
He hugged Emily, then noticed Violet standing nearby.
“Violet?”
“Oliver…” Violet sucked in a deep breath and looked toward him.
“What did you do to her?!” Oliver growled at her.
Violet looked at Emily. “I didn’t do anything-”
“Haven’t you hurt her enough?” Oliver did not want to listen to her in the slightest and rudely interrupted
her. Meanwhile, Emily continued burying herself deeper into Oliver’s arms, like she was seeking
protection from
Violet.
“I didn’t do anything.” Violet calmed down and narrowed her eyes at Emily, “You should ask her about
some
things, though.”
“Oliver, I’m scared!”
Emily hugged Oliver tighter and started sobbing. But her eyes were filled with wariness toward Violet.
“Why are you scared?” Violet sneered. She found Emily amusing.
She wanted to tell Oliver that she was the one who took care of him that year, but then decided to keep
her mouth shut. She remembered Oliver telling her that he would choose Emily even if she was not the
one who
took care of him.
Violet did not want to bring humiliation upon herself.
“Don’t you understand why she’s scared? You ruined her voice and took away everything from her!
Your name alone makes her tremble in fear! Why did you show up before her again?!”
“Oliver—“Violet spoke up once more. She was willing to bet that Oliver had never said such cruel
things before, but how come they were all directed toward her? Was she really that deserving of
hatred?
“Violet, I don’t want to get you canceled. So, please avoid the places where Emily will be in the future!”
Oliver said mercilessly and once more revealed his concern for Emily.
Violet smiled bitterly, but it just ended up as a sneer. She became hated by everyone overnight. What
exactly
went so wrong?
Oliver left with Emily at some point in time.
Violet leaned against the wall and tried to compose herself, but could not. Oliver was only concerned
about. Emily and did not notice how injured and pale Violet was.
She was brought back to the room where Lucius was. When she stood behind him, she finally saw the
screen in front of him. He was replaying all that had happened in the corridor.
“Violet, I don’t want to get you canceled. So, please avoid the places where Emily will be in the future!”*
The words were grating to Violet’s ears.
