Chapter 79
"You've got a say in this."
Violette: "Elijah, let's eat! Just because I'm working with Derek doesn't mean I dig him! Why do you
guys think I'd automatically say yes if he chases me? Do you think I'm some sort of easy catch?"
Elijah was speechless.
After dinner, Violette went back to her room and thoroughly read the email Derek sent last night.
Her heart was heavy after reading it.
She didn't know the first thing about management companies, b
ut she understood Derek's plan.
She felt his plan could revive the Dennis Group from the brink of disaster.
If Derek weren't Melinda's biological brother, she would eagerly seize the opportunity to collaborate
with him. With a sigh, she closed her laptop and stretched out on her bed.
Holding her phone, she saw Odette's message: Violette! I slept with Ramsey! What do I do? I think I
might have fallen for him!
Violette didn't see that one coming.
But, even though Ramsey is a bit peculiar, he's definitely a looker.
Violette replied: If you're into him, then just go for it. It's fate!
Odette: He says he's taking me to meet someone important tomorrow. He wouldn't say who. This jerk
is making me all nervous!
Violette: Maybe he's planning a surprise.
Odette: I'll take a surprise any day, just not a shock. Tell me about your hubby! Are you guys sharing a
room?
Violette blushed uncontrollably: I'm in the guest room. There's nothing to tell, stop asking.
Odette: Is he hot?
Violette didn't want to answer, but the image of Elijah's handsome face popped into her head and she
couldn't help but type one word: Yes.
Odette: Wow! Violette, you're living the dream! How old is your husband?
Violette: Pretty old. An old man, in our terms.
Odette: No worries, old men have their perks. They're gentle, considerate, and caring.
Violette: Get a grip! You've been watching too many dramas.
Odette: You said he's hot, right? As long as he's hot, that's all that matters! Good looks can make up for
everything! C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
The next morning, over breakfast.
Violette found herself studying Elijah's face a little more than usual.
His eyebrows were impeccably shaped, his eyes held depth and expressiveness, his nose boasted a
straight form, and his lips... were irresistibly enticing. The longer she gazed, the more captivated she
became, falling deeper under his spell.
She recalled what Odette had said last night.
Looks really can offset some flaws.
"Do you have plans tonight?" He ignored her blatant ogling and asked.
Her heart was racing.
Was he asking her out?
"I think I'm available." She mumbled, taking a sip of water.
"I'll have the chauffeur pick you up this afternoon."
"Oh, where are we going?" She asked, curiosity piqued.
Elijah: "You'll find out."
He was improving.
Last time, for the concert, he didn't inform her beforehand.
This time, at least he gave her a heads up.
At five in the afternoon.
Ramsey brought Odette to an upscale restaurant.
"Sweetheart, remember that friend I mentioned before?" Ramsey held Odette's hand tightly, unwilling to
let go even for a second, "The one who got hitched all of a sudden."
Odette thought for a second: "Oh, I know. The one who got married out of the blue! His wife was in a
pickle, but instead of helping, he asked you to step in. However, he got mad after his wife met you."
