Chapter 92
In that afternoon.
Violette got herself two pots of daffodils from the flower market, which
she carried back to the place her mom rented.
It wasn't even five yet, so you'd think Albina would still be at work.
But there she was, busy in the kitchen.
"Mom, did you leave work early today?" Violette asked, changing her slippers and placing the flowers
on the living room table.
Albina came out of the kitchen, looking a bit awkward.
"Violette, I didn't keep that job," she explained. "My friend's daughter-in-law found a more professional
nanny."
Violette simply replied and then gave her mom a hug.
"Don't worry, Mom."
Albina smiled and said, "I'm fine... What's with the flowers?"
Violette glanced at the humble house and said, "I passed by the flower market and got these."
"Ah, Violette, don't worry about my job. I'll find another one."
"Mom, you don't have to. Just stay at home and rest!" Violette took out her bank card and handed it to
her mom. "There's money in there. Use it."
Albina pushed the card away and said seriously, "Violette, I've lived long enough to learn one thing. It's
better to rely on yourself than others. Even if I have to sweep the streets tomorrow, it's better than
asking for your money."
Violette couldn't help but laugh at her mom's righteous look. "Come on, Mom, sweeping streets? I
heard they have to wake up at like 4 or 5 in the morning. It's freezing now! Just find an easy job."
Albina laughed too. "If the pay is good, waking up early isn't a problem. I'll go cook. You sit down and
rest."
Violette was sitting on the sofa and checking her phone, when she saw messages from Odette.
Odette: Violette, I really don't get it... What's the deal with Elijah? He's still sick, so why did he come
looking for you? What's he playing at? If he really loved you, he'd just give you money! What's his
game?
Violette didn't know how to respond to Odette's complaints.
After a while, Odette sent another message: Ramsey just went to see Elijah. The doctor said Elijah's
immune system is messed up and he should be hospitalized. Is that serious?
Violette: Only after a hospital checkup will we know how serious it is.
Odette: Oh... Have you fallen for Derek? That's what they're all saying.
Violette: Who’s they?
Odette: You know, Elijah's people! They say you're neglecting Elijah because you're into Derek. I think
Derek is less handsome than Elijah. And he gives off a slick, scheming vibe.
Violette didn't feel that way after spending some time with Derek.
She asked: You think Elijah looks that honest?
Odette: Elijah seems really honest! But he's a bit strict, haven't you noticed that a lot of people in the Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
legal profession, the ones who are violent to their families, are like that?
Violette took a sip of water and asked: How's Ramsey?
Odette: He's way younger than Derek and Elijah. He's like a little puppy. Violette, if you get divorced,
you should go for a younger guy next time! They're easier to control.
Violette: Let's see if I can get a divorce first!
Odette: Are you really willing to divorce Elijah?
Violette: Why wouldn't I be? Whether I divorce him or not, I can't get a share of his fortune.
Odette: True, it's impossible for an ordinary person to take advantage of someone as rich as him.
At dinner.
Violette took a few bites and then put down her utensils.
Albina: "Why did you stop eating? Doesn't it suit your taste?"
Violette frowned slightly: "Mom, I'm starting to show."
Albina laughed: "You're already four months pregnant, almost five. Of course, your belly will start to
grow."
Violette: "Luckily, I'm wearing loose clothes now, so others can't tell."
Albina: "Mmm... Violette, I've been thinking, what if you go abroad to study for a master's degree? You
can take the opportunity to have the baby there."
Violette was stunned: "Mom, studying abroad costs a lot. Plus, I don't want to study for a master's
degree. I want to get a job and make money."
Albina: "Don't worry about the money. I've saved up some over the years. It's enough for your tuition
and daily expenses."
