"No need," She retorted, filled with regret for even attempting to engage him in conversation. Now, she was unable to keep up with his fast-paced chatter and was also left feeling rather embarrassed.
"Violette, we need to talk. Let me drive you home, and we can discuss it on the way." His tone left no room for argument.
She collected her bag and followed behind him.
As they exited the villa, he extended his hand. "Give me the car keys."
"And how do you plan on getting back?" She asked, catching sight of his bodyguard already pulling out a car from the corner of her eye.
She sighed internally. He always had his bodyguards around, so why did she even worry about him?
Once in the car, they drove off smoothly. Her blood sugar spiked after dinner, leaving her feeling dizzy.
"Violette, have you made any plans for Ian and Rita's summer break?" He casually threw out the topic he intended to discuss.
Her eyebrows furrowed, instantly alert. Was he showing concern for Ian and Rita because he knew they were his kids?
Given her reaction, he quickly clarified, "You're heavily pregnant now, so it must be inconvenient for you to take care of them. Should I sign them up for a summer camp?"
"Oh... Ian's school has already scheduled activities for the summer. As for Rita, I haven't decided whether to enroll her in any summer programs yet,” Violette responded, torn.
“You could discuss it with her and see what she wants."
"I know. You don't need to worry about this." She glanced at his profile, hesitating for a moment before adding, "Elijah, if you truly want me to rest well during my pregnancy, then you need to stop upsetting my friends."
His eyebrows furrowed. "Violette, it's your friends who should be cautioned. They're the ones who keep provoking me."
"I will certainly advise them to keep their distance from you, but shouldn't you also control your temper a bit?" She asked sternly. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
"So, in your heart, your friends are more important than me, aren't they?"
A headache began to throb at her temples, what was the point of this comparison?
To prove his sincerity in wanting her to rest and not to upset her, he turned on the car radio, effectively ending their argument.
Upon reaching Silverleaf Ridge, he didn't follow her into the villa. As she entered and switched shoes, she noticed him getting into the car with his bodyguard out of the corner of her eye.
This man was stubborn and aloof. He would never admit to being wrong if he believed he was right, even if you forced him.
"Violette, have you had lunch?" The nanny asked as soon as she saw her return.
"I have." Violette settled onto the couch, noticing an envelope on the coffee table.
"Ian brought it back last night," the nanny explained. "Also, starting from tomorrow, Rita will be on summer break. Mike attended a school event for her today."
She opened the envelope to find detailed information about a summer camp, located in B Country. She could send Ian to B Country and check if he would adapt well to the summer camp. If he did, she would leave him there and return alone, if not, she would bring him back with her.
In the afternoon, she drove to her office. As soon as she entered her office, the vice president rushed in.
"President Dennis, last night's livestream was a huge success! Our orders have skyrocketed today!" The vice president beamed. "There are rumors online saying that this was a collaborative marketing effort between you and Elijah. We're all over the internet now!"
Violette chuckled. "So, should I be paying Elijah a marketing fee?"
The vice president's grin faltered. "So it really was a joint marketing effort between you and Elijah?!"
Violette replied, "Use your brain. Is that really possible?"
Vice President. "It is possible! The baby in your belly, isn't that his? Everyone in the company knows now!"
