Chapter 2

Chapter 2

The awe-striking look in the man’s eyes was difficult to disregard. He seemed as though he wanted to kill her.

She hurriedly kicked her high heels off and picked up the skirt of her gown before running down the steps and out of the

cathedral,

She deliberately gave Theo a look as she ran past him barefooted. Seeing how mad he looks, she felt exhilarated!

No one prevented her from leaving. Could it be because she was not Beryl? Perhaps it was because no one had recovered from the shock?

What a wedding. The bridegroom had said ‘I do’, but the bride had responded with ‘I don’t’. This was an extremely rare

occurrence.

Particularly when the bridegroom was someone of such significant status.

A limo had been waiting in front of the cathedral for a long time. Violet dashed towards it.

A man quickly opened the door to the car. “Get in.”

She darted into the car.

The man helped her push her wedding gown in before rushing into the car himself.

The doors closed and the car sped away like lightning!

There were three people in the car.

It was only now that the first phase of their plan could be considered complete.

Sitting at the back of the car, Violet smoothened out her thick and flouncy gown. “Thanks for coming all the way here to help me, bro.”

“What are you thanking me for? We’re family.” He was Julian Wood; he left a very refined and sophisticated impression on people.

“Hmph! Theo Yeager wants to mess with me? I won’t rest until I mess him up completely!” She felt angry just thinking about it. “Kidnapping, bride substitute. Only he would think up such things!”

She turned around. “Why is he so evil, bro? Doesn’t he feel bad about it?”

“If he feels bad about it, then he isn’t Theo Henry Yeager,” said Julian.

The more Violet thought about what had happened, the angrier she felt. She wanted to slap his face so much!

“Violet, you’ve offended Jack Yancey today.” Julian began, reminding her. “You must be careful in the future. I’m worried that he’ll come for you.”

She did not think so. “He may even thank me!”

“What?”

“Do you think he wanted to get married? You didn’t see the dirty look he gave when he saw me!” Violet said. “It was as if I pulled some trick to get into his pants!”

She shook her head. “He was probably forced into it as well.”

“It doesn’t matter what his intentions were. You’ve made him look bad at a wedding that was broadcasted throughout the entire city. His finely chiseled nose gave him a prominent look.

The girl fell quiet for a moment,

He gazed at her petite face and asked, “You can’t deny that, can you?”

Both of them exchanged looks. There was a moment of silence in the car. It was undeniable, indeed, so did it mean that she had to pay the price?

Julian continued. “For someone in his position, this kind of humiliation is enough fodder for a lifetime of gossip.”

Violet pouted.

“You have to be careful, I mean it. I’m telling you as a guy that he won’t just let this go.”

“I…” Violet blinked, “I didn’t think so much back then. I just wanted to expose Theo’s past.”

“You don’t have to be too worried, there’s always a way to solve a problem,” he said in a cool voice.

“Isn’t that your specialty? I’m just warning you. All you have to do is be more alert.”

Chapter 2 Violet nodded. “Mm.”

“If you really get caught by him, just apologize earnestly.”

“Mm.”

“Don’t ‘mm’ me, listen! He’s the big boss of Rheinsville City, just hearing his name is enough to frighten some. You’ve never been scared of anything, but if you see him from now on you’d better stay away and hide.”

“Thanks for your reminder, bro. How’s my mum?” Violet changed the subject as she changed into her sneakers. “Did she get hurt? That perv erted Theo didn’t hurt her, did he?”

“He didn’t, we got there right on time,” said Julian. “Don’t worry, I’ve got her settled. I’ll be going back to the village once I send you home.”

Violet’s face changed. She turned to him and frowned. “Leaving so soon?”

“Mm. Take care of yourself.” Julian gave off a noble but cold aura. “Right, our master said it’s been three years since you….”

“I know, I know,” she interjected with her eyebrows scrunching up slightly. The impending deadline got more and more worrying as the days slipped past, one by one.

“Don’t be impatient, this is a very serious problem.” Julian glanced at her with a slightly darkened look.

“You should care about this.”

“Mm.” Violet nodded. “Tell master I’ll visit him when I have time.”

“You don’t have to go back, the master has people with him anyway. Having you there won’t make a difference.” Julian had a cool expression on his face. It seemed as though he never smiled.

Violet turned to look out the window, thinking about the scene just now…

This Jack Yancey… He was rather handsome.

She had never seen such a handsome man in all her life.

Would he… really seek revenge?

She had said so much during the wedding and painted such a pitiful picture of herself. Would he still want to bully her?

That would not be chivalrous of him at all!

“Master said you should keep your profile down low for a while, in case Theo comes for you,” Julian warned again when she was about to get out of the car.

“Alright.” She nodded her head obediently so that he would not worry.

“You should also avoid Jack. Basically, just be careful.”

She smiled. “I don’t think Theo will have time to come for me. He has a big mess to sort out himself!”

Julian looked at her with a steely gaze and said nothing.

“The wedding was ruined, and he was exposed for lying to the Yanceys.” Violet broke it down for him.

“All the Yancey old folks have to do is exert a little more pressure and his company would be completely demolished! Who knows, he may even go mad!

“And with the media focusing on him, he wouldn’t be able to handle it!

“If he really comes after me, hmph…then he’ll deserve whatever he gets. I’ll do what I need to do when the time comes. He’s asking for it!”

After hearing all this, Julian did not feel as worried as he was before. This kid was a force to be reckoned with!
