From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 438

Violet caught the hidden meaning in Ileana's words, "Ileana, you're the diamond finder of my life. Without you, I would've never met Nanson! You can bet, no matter what happens, you're my sister through and through. When I hit the jackpot, you won't be left sipping soup

while I feast!"

Her words were heartfelt, devoid of any deceit. After all, Violet and Ileana were in this together, thick as thieves. If Violet decided to enjoy the spoils alone, Ileana would certainly turn her back, and that would be a loss Violet couldn't afford. So, she was determined to share the wealth and glory with Ileana.

Hearing this, Ileana felt a bit better, "We come from the same roots, grew up together. If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have sought you out in the first place."

With Ileana having reached out to Violet, she was prepared. She had enough dirt on Violet to ruin her in front of Nanson if needed. So, she wasn't worried about any betrayal.

Violet, smiling, linked her arm with Ileana's, "I bet you haven't eaten yet, right? Come on, let me treat you to dinner! Oh, and by the way, I'm not Jenny anymore, you've got to call me ViVi from now on." Jenny, indeed. That was just so passé.

"Sure," Ileana nodded, and as they walked and talked, Violet inquired, "So, Nanson's living with his sister, huh?"

"Yes."
