Chapter 0126

Lucius believed her words were sincere; he believed that she cared about him, but rejected him because she was seeking lifelong love.

Yet, when he witnessed her deep concern for Oliver, her vulnerability, and the tears that she shed when Oliver walked away, it left him feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Violet was emotionally distressed and too drained to face Lucius. His piercing gaze was too much for her. Without a word, she quickly entered the elevator and left the building.

Instead of heading straight home, she wandered aimlessly on the street.

Convinced of her deception, she chose not to report it to the police since she assumed it would certainly involve Lucius. She didn’t want to embarrass him by bringing him to the police station.

Subsequently, her focus shifted to Job hunting, Eventually, her persistence paid off, and she
