Albina gently patted Violette's shoulder and said, "You're his daughter, of course he will look after you.
When I was with him, his company was just a start-up. I didn't ask for a dime when we married, even
poured in a ton of money to help him get it off the ground. If he dares to screw you over, I wouldn't let
him off, even if I were a ghost."
Monday.
Violette took a cab to the Bourne Group.
This was her first time visiting Elijah's company.
The Bourne Group building towered high into the sky, imposing and majestic.
She got out of the cab and headed towards the lobby on the first floor.
"Miss, do you have an appointment?" The receptionist asked.
Violette replied, "No. Could you please contact Melinda and tell her Violette's here to see her? She'll
definitely come down once she hears my name."
The receptionist gave Violette a once over, figured her dress was decent enough, and placed a call to
the PR department for her.
Before long, Melinda came down.
Melinda stepped out of the elevator, walked up to Violette, and shot a haughty glance at her.
"Didn't you just have an abortion? Shouldn't you be resting?" Melinda taunted.
Violette had on light make-up today and looked rather spirited, "Melinda, after all the trouble you've
gone through, did Elijah agree to marry you?"
Melinda didn't get angry. Instead, she wore a triumphant smile, "Even if he doesn't marry me, he won't
be with you again. Violette, he's already been generous enough by letting you have an abortion. If I Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
were him, I'd be even harsher."
"Oh, so you're accustomed to doing illegal things."
"You think you can provoke me with a few words? You're really a joke right now." Melinda replied coldly,
"Loser!"
Unfazed, Violette abruptly changed the subject, "Melinda, have you ever worn a princess dress in front
of Elijah?"
Arrogantly, Melinda said, "Childish! I've never worn a princess dress! Why are you asking me this?"
"I finally understand why Elijah doesn't like you." Violette smirked, leaning in to whisper in her ear,
"Elijah likes cute girls. He likes seeing girls in princess dresses."
Melinda laughed awkwardly as if she'd heard a hilarious joke.
"I've slept with Elijah before, what about you? Not only does he enjoy seeing girls in princess dresses,
but he also likes shorter hairstyle. Oh, and the dress should ideally be pink. If you dress up like this,
he'll definitely like you more." Violette continued.
Melinda's smile froze.
She had known Elijah for over a decade and he had never showed any intention to sleep with her.
Yet, Violette had known him for less than three months and they had been so intimate.
Melinda couldn't deny the truth in Violette's words.
"Why would you tell me all this? Why would you help me?" Melinda questioned.
"I want to divorce Elijah. I'm completely disappointed in him, and I just want to regain my freedom as
soon as possible. Is that enough?" A cold glint flashed in Violette's eyes.
The feature of the woman in Elijah's computer was a pink princess dress and a short hairstyle.
If Melinda appeared before Elijah dressed like that, she was certain he would lose his mind.
He might even lash out and hurt Melinda in his rage.
