Victoria felt nothing but emptiness as McNeil handed the gift over to Violet.

"You go ahead and find Marcus in his room. I'm going to use the restroom," he said.

Violet paused for a moment as Victoria walked away, but she wasn't concerned.

After all, she'd kept McNeil close to Victoria for six years and he still hadn't fallen for her. Victoria was no real threat.

With practiced poise, Violet smiled. "Alright, I'll go check on Max."

Victoria opened the door and slipped inside.
