Restaurant.
Albina brought the cooked dishes to the table.
"Violette, come here for a sec." Albina called out to her daughter.
Violette followed her mom towards the restroom.
"Did you have a fight with Elijah?" Albina asked.
"Mom, isn't it obvious that we fought?" Violette's face was emotionless.
Maybe it was because of too many disappointments; her heart had gone numb.
"Yeah, you two are like a couple on the verge of a broken marriage." Albina described, "That's the
exact expression your dad and I had when we get divorced."
Violette couldn't help but laughed, "Mom, we didn't talk about divorce. We just... disagreed on the issue
of having kids."
"Oh, he still doesn't want kids? Did he give any reason?" Albina asked.
Violette shook her head, "He has depression. Every time I think about his illness, I tell myself to take it
easy."
"Poor thing." Albina sighed, "What's the use of having money? Health is the most important thing. I
think we're richer than him in that sense."
"You have no idea how much money he has." Violette smiled and held her mom's hand, "Mom, thanks
for everything tonight."
"I'm happy to cook for you every day, but the Bourne family's chef probably cooks better than me."
Albina said.
"Mom, no matter how good other people's cooking is, your cooking is the best to me." Violette smiled,
"Mom, let's go eat."
"I already ate at home. Plus, seeing the two of you like this, I have no appetite." Albina joked, "I'll head
back, you try not to mess around with him. We can't afford to offend him."
Violette said, "Don't worry, Mom! I'll handle things between me and him."
After seeing her mom off, Violette returned to her seat.
In front of her was a plate of processed shrimp
by him.
"Elijah, you must be good at pursuing girls, huh?" Violette picked up her fork, stabbed a shrimp, and
put it in her mouth.
"Usually, people pursue me." Elijah answered truthfully.
Violette almost choked.
"It's an honor to eat shrimp processed by you." Violette said.
"Violette, I wish you could always be like this." Elijah said.
Violette took a deep breath, suppressed her emotions, and said softly, "From now on, I'll try not to make
you angry." She paused, then said, "I have a banquet at school next week. Your company probably has
an event too, right?"
"Yes, but I won't attend." Elijah said.
"Right, you need to rest with your leg." Violette picked up a shrimp, dipped it in some sauce, and
brought it to his mouth.
He hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth.
"Do you have any plans?" He ate the shrimp she fed him and felt a sweetness in his heart.
Their previous quarrel was overshadowed by the current harmonious atmosphere.
"Yes! This is my last college banquet." Violette said.
"I'd like to go." He said softly.
Violette was taken aback, "How? Students can't bring family members."
"I'll find a way." Elijah said.
Violette looked at his calm expression and suddenly realized, "Yeah, you're so rich, if you're willing to
donate a building to our school, not only can you attend the banquet, you could even visit the girls'
dormitory if you wanted."
Elijah looked up at her.
Was this what she meant by trying not to make him angry?
Before they knew it, the day of the banquet arrived.
Violette went to school early in the morning, and C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Elijah got up only after she left.
