Chapter 143
Jack stared at Violet with his deep eyes full of interest.
Violet smiled and affirmed, “Just trust me.”
“So she’s going to pay the sky-high penalty, right?” Jack said, thinking that Violet was familiar with Jared and possibly knew Alyssa. “Donald is a cu nning fox. It must have been stated in the contract.”
“Do you think 6 million dollars is a sky-high price, Mr. Yancey?” Violet’s voice was soft.
Jack was still curious and asked, “How did you know the contract was terminated? And 6 million dollars?”
At this time, Jack’s phone rang. It was Michael who called him.
Jack answered the phone, and Michael’s voice came on the line, “Mr. Yancey, I just got the news that Alyssa has terminated her contract with the Grande Group this afternoon.”
Jack looked at Violet’s fair face again in disbelief, frowning slightly.
He thought, “What she said is true!”
Michael asked, “Mr. Yancey, should we sign a contract with Alyssa? We don’t know why she terminated the contract, but I think we have enough confidence to win her trust now that she has come to Rheinsville City.”
“Can you contact her?” Jack asked immediately.
“We’re still trying. The Grande Group probably doesn’t want us to find Alyssa and tries to stop us, but we will find a way,” answered Michael.
“I’ll leave it to you. Don’t let me down!” said Jack.
“I won’t.”
Then Jack quickly hung up the phone.
The ward was very quiet. Although Jack didn’t turn on the speakerphone, Violet could hear Michael’s voice.
Jack put down his phone and looked at the girl sitting up in bed. He frowned slightly with doubts in his heart and said in a low voice, “Michael just told me something about Alyssa’s contract. Honestly, how did you know that?” He wondered if there were any more secrets about her that he didn’t know.
“Do you believe what I say?” Violet looked at him seriously.
Jack nodded, “Tell me.” He wanted to hear it.
“I’m Alyssa,” Violet confessed and was a little worried that he would not believe it.
They looked at each other and both fell into silence.
Jack suddenly remembered that Violet once told him that she had two names. One was given to her by her parents, and the other was given to her by herself. And the name began with A… Alyssa!
Jack didn’t question it because Violet couldn’t be joking about that. If she was Alyssa, her identity would definitely be verified.
If she wasn’t, she couldn’t afford such a big lie.
Thinking of the scene when they were in the fashion exhibition hall that day, Jack realized that Violet also had her own unique views on design.
“Do you believe it?” She asked in a low voice and wondered what was on his mind.
“So you’ve terminated the contract?” He was more interested in this question and asked, “Why?”
“Because someone else knows my designs better.” She said truthfully, “And he gave me nine out of ten.”
When their eyes met, they could feel the connection between them, which they never had before.
Those days they spent together would always be remembered, and they smiled subconsciously.
Yes, Jack believed her words.
And Violet was Alyssa…
It was a surprise for him!
Jack could find no words to describe his feelings at this time. He was still shocked, yet he was more excited and delighted.

He was the reason why Violet chose to terminate the contract and come to the Yancey Group.
Thinking of this, Jack couldn’t help smiling. Violet seldom saw such a happy smile on Jack’s handsome face. For a moment she was dazzled by it.
In the bright light, Jack stared at Violet with a sincere and warm smile.
“You’ve lost 6 million dollars, haven’t you? I’ll give you the money Jack continued, “I’ll draw up a contract tomorrow and let you decide your annual salary. You can come to the company or work at home. Is that okay?”
Violet smiled and said, “So you believe me so easily? And completely no doubts?”
“Intuition.” Jack said, “I believe my intuition.”
Jack’s trust made Violet feel safe. She jokingly asked, “So how much annual salary are you going to offer me?”
“How much do you want?” Jack said in a serious tone, “You can fill it out yourself when you sign the contract
“What if I break the contract? Violet kept asking, “How much do you want from me then?”
“200 million dollars.” Jack said seriously, “I want to sign a lifelong contract with you. You can fill in your annual salary, and I’ll give you the money no matter how much it is. But if you break the contract, you have to give me 200 million dollars.”
Clearly, Violet was frightened by Jack’s serious look.
After a while, Jack burst into laughter and asked, “Are you scared?”
“Why should I be scared?” Violet smiled and added, “I’ll be rich.” And she gave a reason by saying, “And you know my designs.”
Jack also seized the chance to win her heart because Violet knew him better than anyone.
It was getting dark. Jack sat in a chair beside the bed, and Violet leaned against the head of the bed.
“Lie down and have a rest. Jack gently pressed a button and slowly laid the head of the bed flat. “You can close your eyes. It’s safe here, and my men are guarding outside. You must be very tired
“Where are you going to do?” Violet looked at him and asked.
“I’ll stay here with you for the night.” Jack’s voice was gentle, as he felt happy.
Three hours later, Violet opened his eyes in a daze and found that Jack was still sitting there… She couldn’t help but feel
sorry.
“Hello,” she spoke softly.
“What?” Jack was very considerate and asked, “Do you want to go to the bathroom? Or do you want to drink water?”
“Are you really going to sit here all night?” asked Violet.
“Yes,” Jack replied.
There was a short silence…
Violet finally said, “Maybe, you can lie in bed with me and get some rest?” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Jack looked at Violet and frowned slightly.
Violet thought, “We’ve had sex before. Now you’re pretending to be a gentleman?”
Now that Violet had made the suggestion, Jack agreed. He went to the other side of the bed and took off his shoes before going to bed. It was already midnight.
As Jack lay down gently beside her, Violet reached out to turn off the main light.
The light in the ward suddenly dimmed, leaving only a small night lamp emitting warm yellow light. Lying there with Violet in the bed, Jack had never felt so peaceful and warm. The room was so quiet that he could hear her heartbeat and breathing.
It felt good.
Violet closed her eyes and forced herself not to think too much.
The truth that she was Alyssa really surprised Jack. It was not easy for a girl who grew up with her mother to become a brilliant designer and change her fate. Fortunately, Violet made it.
“Violet, Jack spoke softly, still awake.
“What?”
“Are you sleepy?” asked Jack.
Obviously, Jack wanted to chat with her. Violet looked at the dark ceiling and said, “What do you want to know?”
“When did you become so excellent?” Jack started with a question before saying, “Your mother must have had a hard time after she gave birth to you.”
Violet replied calmly, “Life was hard before I was ten years old. Since then, I told myself to work hard and give my mother the best life in the future. With a firm belief in my heart, I started to strive for what I wanted. I didn’t dare to waste a single day.
“What happened when you were ten?” Jack wanted to know Violet better and be part of her life.
Violet still felt a little sad when she recalled the past. “I was weak and sick before I was ten years old. My mother worked three jobs, but she still couldn’t earn enough money to pay my medical bills. And one day…”
That year, Violet was just ten years old-
