He glanced at her before turning around to leave, closing the doors behind him.

Violet sat on the bed and sighed. She took out her phone and dialed her mother’s cell phone number.

However, her mother’s cell phone had been switched off.

She sighed. She did not know what condition her mother was in now.

Jack kept Violet locked up for three days.

Her meals were sent to her, and nurses came to do check-ups and change her drip bags. However, she was not allowed to pass through those doors.

She was fine actually; she just had slight hypoglycemia.

In addition, she had ski pped breakfast on the morning of the wedding which was the reason why she felt a bit fatigued

before this.

The past three days had given her the opportunity to rest properly. She also took the time to ponder upon the recent

events.

Other than worrying about her mother, she was doing quite well.

“Good day, Mr. Yancey.”

A respectful greeting reached her ears.

Upon hearing that, she suddenly turned around to see the doors to her room open.

Jack came in. He was dressed in a black suit, giving off a slightly cold vibe. Frowning, he walked towards her without a sound.

“My grandfather wishes to see you.” Jack stood by the bed, looking at her with his deep eyes.

Violet gulped. She was affected by his aura.

“Grandpa isn’t in the best state. He’s just been through a heart by pass surgery and depends on medicine to maintain his health,” Jack reminded.

Violet listened without responding.

Jack continued, “So be careful about what you say, don’t provoke him. Your enemy is Theo Yeager, not my grandfather. He’s hospitalized now thanks to you.”

Violet was stunned. “He wishes to see me? Why?”

“You’ll know when you’re there.” Jack had a quiet and deep look in his eyes.

She should visit him, Violet thought. She should apologize to Senior Yancey.

Who knew, if Senior Yancey was willing to forgive her, this whole thing may end here. Jack would stop looking into this.

Therefore, Violet yanked the blanket off and began to put on her shoes. “Sure, I’ll go!” she agreed quickly.

Jack continued to look at her with a very cold look as he also did not know why his grandfather wanted to meet her.

When his grandfather heard about Jack keeping Violet locked in, he had not seemed very happy about it.

“Let’s go!” Violet stood in front of him and urged. “What are you standing there for?”

Jack looked away and turned around to leave. She followed from behind.

As they walked past the doors, Violet breathed a sigh of relief. There was finally a chance of escaping!

However, Jack then grabbed her wrist. She had not expected this.

Violet was startled. She turned to look at him and explained, “I won’t escape! If you pull me along like this… it’ll easily spark a misunderstanding!”

“You can escape a wedding. Who’s to say you wouldn’t escape this place?” Jack maintained his cool expression.

“I…” Violet was rendered speechless.

With that, Jack kept walking forward with Violet in tow.

Violet felt extremely uncomfortable, but there was nothing she could do except follow him obediently Since he brought up the topic of her escaping the wedding, Violet felt that there were some things she needed to clear up.

She had her opportunity now as he had time to spare.

She opened her mouth.

“Mr. Yancey, I may have troubled you by escaping from the wedding, but if I hadn’t, it may have been a lifetime of trouble for you.”

Jack ignored her.

Violet glanced at him as she walked. “You don’t love me, do you?”

There was still no response.

Violet tried again. “If your grandfather is no longer in danger, can we just call it even?”

“It’s one thing that I don’t love you, but I said I do. You said you don’t. That’s a different issue.” It was obvious from his attitude that this issue was not over.

“Then what the hell do you want?” Violet lost her patience all of a sudden. “I’m a victim too, alright?!”

“You’ll pay for this slowly, in the future,” said Jack.

Violet was mad. “You should be venting this anger on Theo Yeager!”

“He can’t run from his share.” Jack’s tone was slightly cold.

“His company is going broke. You should exert some pressure,” Violet suggested. “Destroy him immediately! I can guarantee that you’ll feel really good about it!”

Jack’s face was dark the entire time. This kid talked too much!

“How’s

my

mother? Where did you take her?” Violet asked.

Jack did not respond. He continued to walk forward and pulled her along.

Violet gave a forceful tug and stopped in her tracks. Both of them turned to face each other.

“I want to call my mother first! Then I’ll go see your grandfather!” She looked at him obstinately.

Jack’s expression instantly changed. He narrowed his cold eyes and watched her dangerously. How dare she try to negotiate with him?!

There was a glint of hatred in Violet’s eyes as well.

Her mother was the most important person in her life!

Facing each other squarely probably reminded him of her performance at the wedding.

Jack relented. He was worried that she would vent her feelings to his grandfather.

Subsequently, with one hand on her wrist, he took out his cell phone with the other.

Violet had not expected him to agree so easily!

He dialed a number and put his cell phone to his ear. “Her daughter wants to speak with her. Is this a convenient time?” asked Jack.

“Yes, Mr. Yancey.” The person on the other end of the call answered,

Jack then passed the cell phone to the girl before him, while keeping his grip tightened on her hand. He was not giving her any opportunity to escape.
