The atmosphere in the elegant courtyard was heavy and still.
A line of security guards stood outside the doors to the villa.
Senior Yancey stood up and looked at the girl next to him kindly. “Il e’s here to fetch you,” the old man said cheerfully.
“...” Violet blinked. She had blanked out for a moment.
“Such a pity that you have to go!” Senior Yancey held her hand and gave a gentle sigh.
He had grown to understand this young girl well after interacting with her for a week.
He believed in his judgment. She was the one.
It took a lot of courage for her to be able to say, “I don’t!” in front of so many people at the wedding.
This courage, this unyielding spirit, was what a Yancey mistress must have.
How many women had tried to sleep with his precious grandson once he had become an adult? How many of them wanted to be
his woman?
“Grandpa, I’ll come back and visit whenever I can. As long as you’re healthy and no longer angry at me, I’ll be exceptionally
happy, ” Violet said cheerfully.
The past seven days had made her realize that this old man was very easy to get along with.
He did not have the haughty attitude of a typical rich person at all and treated her like she was his own granddaughter.
Violet and Senior Yancey had developed a kinship.
The white Maserati came to a gentle stop and the door opened.
Jack got out of the car and walked over. His cold and handsome face was exceptionally dashing under the light of the
sunset.
“Don’t worry,” Senior Yancey said as he smoothed her soft, long hair. There was a hint of glee in his voice. “I’m no longer angry
at you.”
Not only did Jack hear what his grandfather had just said, but he also observed, from his grandfather’s expression, that he was
very much pleased and full of joy.
This made him feel slightly reluctant from being honest with how he felt. It was not good that his grandfather liked Violet.
He stood in front of Senior Yancey and bowed. “Good evening.” He completely ignored Violet, not even sparing her a glance.
Violet looked a bit awkward.
“Dinner together before you leave, Jack?” Senior Yancey tried to get him to stay. This precious grandson of his had not returned
for a week.
“No thanks.” Jack looked guarded.
Would he forgive her after they leave the island? Violet thought.
“I came to fetch her. Mum and Liam will be coming back soon so I don’t want her here to trouble them.”
Only then did he look at Violet. The tone of his voice immediately grew colder. “Have you packed your things?”
“Did you let me pack anything when I came over?” Violet retaliated co oly.
Senior Yancey could smell hostile sparks. With a smile, he quickly advised, “Don’t quarrel, we’re all in the same family, there’s
nothing to quarrel about.”
“I’m not part of his family!”
“I’m not part of her family!”
Both of them spoke in unison. They were not pleased!
The atmosphere became awkward.
Senior Yancey looked to his left and then to his right. “Then... Jack, can you bring Violet out for a meal?” he said, trying to save
the situation.
He said nothing.

She remained silent as well.
“We’ve been very happy this week so I want you to help me thank her for me properly,” said Senior Yancey.
Violet rolled her eyes at him.
Jack turned away and did not look at her anymore.
Senior Yancey chuckled. “You should let go of the incident at the wedding. After all, she’s a victim as well. Let’s call things. even!”
After hearing this, Violet felt secretly delighted.
If even his grandfather was not looking into the incident anymore, then why should he?
Jack’s eyes, which were sharp as a hawk’s, looked at her. “Let’s go. What are you waiting for?”
Violet waved at the old man. “Goodbye, grandpa!” Her light voice was soothing to the ears.
Jack brought Violet to the white Maserati, which he had parked not far from where they were.
Violet followed him from behind. His tall and great statute looked like a go d’s silhouette in the sunset. That icy cold aura was
going to freeze everything in his path.
He opened the door for her. This was rather chivalrous of him.
As Violet got into the car, she gave him a deliberate look when they were in close proximity. She was not afraid at all.
However, she felt as though she had been frozen by him. He was as cold as ice!
He closed the door after she had gotten into the car, before walking around to get into the driver’s seat.
The car started up very quickly and headed towards the road over the sea.

Holding onto the dragonhead cane, Senior Yancey stood under the sunset and watched the car as it slowly went further into the
distance with a smile on his face. He spoke to himself, “It’s time for Jack to have a woman next to him. This Vi is absolutely
perfect!”
