Chapter 99
Henry quickly resorted to threats when he realized Violet wasn’t cooperating.
Violet heard it, and her expression turned gloomy. “Are you threatening
me?”
Henry's tone was cold. “That depends on what you think!”
Violet thought about how Henry had asked her to go home for dinner after the design draft had been swapped. She was silent for a moment before saying coldly, “Alright, I’ll be back!”
With that, Violet hung up the phone and packed her things with a dark. expression before leaving Hersey Court.
Having narrowly escaped a setup at the Webb's villa before, Violet had learned her lesson and contacted Charles in advance. After confirming that Charles was indeed going to the Webb’s villa, Violet was relieved.
When Violet went over, Charles had already arrived. He was sitting on the sofa talking to Henry.
To be honest, if it weren’t for Martha’s death and Henry taking Charles’s shares, Henry wouldn’t have had such a strong hold on Charles.
Henry would not easily let Charles’s company go bankrupt for his own
benefit.
However, Henry’s plan to replace the employees in Charles’s company and join forces with other shareholders to destroy much of what Charles had built over the years was disturbingly effortless.
Upon seeing Violet enter, Henry immediately stood up with a smile. “Violet, you’re back?”
Hearing it, Violet nodded coldly.
Charles was telling Henry that Veronica had plagiarized Violet's design
been a long time since Henry had spoken to Violet like this.
Violet did not know when Henry’s attitude toward her had become worse.
Sometimes, Violet even wondered if she was Henry’s biological daughter.
Violet said coldly, “Why are you calling?”
Henry did not care about Violet's coldness. He said gently, “You haven't been home for a long time. How about coming home for dinner tonight?”
Violet pursed her lips sarcastically. “Dad, your memory isn’t that bad, right? Have you forgotten how you and Veronica treated me at the entrance of the court? | thought that in your hearts, | was no longer one of the Webb family!”
Henry sighed. “Violet, you can’t say that. No matter what happened.

“Then I'll tell you the last time. | don’t want to come back!” Violet’s tone
was firm.
Henry was silent for two seconds. “What if | say that Charles is coming too? If I’m not wrong, you married Patrick because you're afraid that I'll deal with Charles! Charles still doesn’t know that you’re married to Patrick,

Charles was telling Henry that Veronica had plagiarized Violet's design

drafts. Henry explained that it was all a misunderstanding, and Violet had already forgiven Veronica.
However, looking at Violet’s current appearance, it was obvious that it was a little different from what Henry had said.
Henry was a smart person. When he saw Charles's hesitant expression, he said. “You two can talk first. I'll go upstairs and find something!”
With that, Henry got up and went upstairs.
Charles looked at Violet. “Your father said that Veronica plagiarizing you was all a misunderstanding?”
Violet pursed her lips, not knowing how to explain.
Charles understood immediately.
Charles's eyes darkened. “You silly girl, why didn’t you tell me? | was overseas before and only came back to hear about this a few days ago. If | hadn’t heard about this, would you have never told me?”
Violet was a little helpless. “Uncle Charles, it’s not that | don’t want to tell. you, but I’ve already found a solution back then. | don’t want this matter t trouble you anymore!”
Charles's expression didn’t look too good. “What do you mean by
who else troubling me? Your mother is no longer around. Other than me, can protect you now? Violet, how can you treat me like an outsider?”
Violet was afraid that Charles would be angry, so she said, “Uncle Charles, I’m sorry. | didn’t consider this matter carefully. If anything happens in the future, I’ll definitely tell you immediately!”
Charles was indeed good to Violet, but Charles still had a large family to take care of. Violet knew that Charles really cared about her.
But Violet didn’t want to become Charles's burden.
At this moment, Henry called out to Violet from the staircase: “Violet, come up. | have something to tell you!”
Violet's eyes flashed. The main topic was here. She knew that it was not that simple for Henry to call her home
Violet gave Charles a comforting look and went upstairs to Henry’s study.
Henry looked at Violet. “Did you know that Veronica is getting married?”
Violet was expressionless. “Il don’t know!”
Henry frowned. “What kind of attitude is that? Aren’t you concerned at all? Marriage is a big deal in life. Veronica is your sister after all! | called you home today to let our family bury the hatchet. Can’t you tell?”
Ahint of sarcasm flashed across Violet’s eyes. “I can’t tell!”
Atrace of anger flashed between Henry's brows as he glared at Violet without saying a word.
Violet's eyes flashed, “I know that for ordinary people, marriage is a significant life event. But Veronica has been married twice in one year! She should be used to it by now, shouldn’t she?”
Alook of embarrassment flashed across Henry’s face. He lowered his eyes. “It’s different this time. There’s going to be a wedding!”
Veronica’s relationship with Russell had caused quite a stir, and Henry had initially thought it would be challenging for her to marry another wealthy.
man.
Unexpectedly, Veronica was capable enough to make Benedict agree to marry her.
Although Henry wanted Violet to marry Benedict, it was a failure!
Violet was expressionless. “Is this what you wanted to tell me? | understand. If there’s nothing else, I'll take my leave first!” Violet turned around and was about to leave.
Henry stood up from his chair. “Stop right there!”
Violet turned around with a cold expression. “Is there anything else?”

Henry glared at Violet. It was obvious that he was suppressing his anger. After all, Violet did not dare to treat him like this before. Henry felt that Violet only dared to treat him like this because of Patrick.
Henry had no idea that Violet had been respectful to him in the past, but now, she was completely disappointed, so there was nothing to be concerned of.
Seeing that Henry was silent, Violet said directly, “If you want to tell Uncle Charles that | married Patrick, you can go now. He'll feel guilty at most once he finds out about this. This can’t threaten me!”
When Henry heard this, he suddenly realized that there were very few things he could do to threaten Violet.

The anger on Henry’s face dissipated a little. “I don’t mean to threaten you. It’s just that Veronica lost the lawsuit with you and no company willing to recruit her now. She’s your biological sister after all. Do you have a way to let her work at Foreverie Jewelry?!”,
Violet frowned. “No.”
Violet really did not know what Henry was thinking. Someone with Veronica’s character would never be allowed into Foreverie Jewelry by
Patrick.
Henry did not expect Violet to reject him so readily.
Henry's expression was extremely gloomy. “Aren’t you married to Patrick? Arranging for Veronica to enter Foreverie Jewelry would be a straightforward matter for him, wouldn't it?”
