Chapter 334

Violet hesitated for a moment before she finally couldn't hold back and asked, “I called you so many times yesterday. Why didn't you answer?"

Her voice trembled with hurt. He'd never done this to her before.

McNeil's reply was curt. "Victoria came back yesterday. We had dinner together at home with Gwyn. It wasn't convenient."

The words drained all the color from Violet's face. Her hand shook so badly she could barely hold her phone.

"So... you and Victoria made up? That's good, I suppose. As long as she doesn't blame me and fight with you again, I'll be relieved."

Victoria's return caught her off guard. She'd thought Victoria didn't care about her and McNeil anymore. Why would she come back now?

Tears glimmered at the corners of Violet's eyes; her heart twisted painfully in her chest.

"She won't. I've calmed her down. I'm driving now-gotta go."

Before she could say another word, the line went dead, the beep of disconnection ringing in her ear. Violet nearly crushed the phone in her grip.
