Chapter 0067

Regina warmly acknowledged the young woman in front of her, and said, “Your words resonate with me. To be honest, my grandson isn’t the easiest to interact with. His seriousness and intensity can be quite intimidating.

“Yes, exactly.” Violet nodded in agreement, relieved to find someone who understood.

Why had their conversation veered in such an unexpected direction? Given Lucius’s lofty status, how was it possible for her to offer him guidance?

“On the surface, Lucius appears to be cold, harsh, and lacking in warmth. He’s gone through a lot and carries the burden of a massive enterprise. To keep control, he must be tough.

“But, deep down, he’s incredibly passionate. It’s just that no one has attempted to unearth and draw it out. Believe in my words; with perseverance, you will find surprising rewards.”

He also witnessed the moment when Regina accidentally broke a cup and injured her hand.

However, he chose not to watch any further, shut down the computer, and refrained from confronting Violet.
