Chapter 672

The nagging on the other end of the phone started again, and Viola found her patience wearing thin. ” What could I have done? Do you think I wanted to break up with him? It’s because-”

She did not finish her sentence. She had told her family that the reason she and Eugene broke up was because of an argument. She did not dare reveal all the things that she should not. If her parents found out what she had done…

Viola’s expression darkened, and she growled impatiently. “Enough, I got it. We’ll talk when I come

back from my business trip.”

After saying that, she hung up the phone, but then her phone rang again the next second.

She thought it was another call from home and answered it impatiently without verifying the call. ” Are you kidding me? I said we’ll talk when I get back-”

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Mason’s stern voice saying, “Come back for what? Have you taken care of the matter with Mr. Grant? You listen here, if you don’t get this done properly, just get lost!”

“I-“Viola gripped her phone, feeling both angry and resentful. Mason was never this harsh when he used to coax her. Now that he had achieved his goal, he found her useless and discarded her like an

old shoe.

She had to endure it for now, though. She still had to rely on him. She would not know what to do

otherwise.

Yvette and Eric chatted with Melanie for a while before deciding to leave. Melanie suddenly recalled something and stopped Yvette, asking, “Do Nicole Qaisa and Sam Walsh have some relationship between them?”

“Mr. Walsh is Nicole’s uncle. What’s the matter?” she replied.

Melanie shook her head. “He just looks to be on good terms with Matthew, so I asked. I ran into him when we were having dinner that day.”

“Mr. Walsh really likes Matthew and thinks that geniuses like him are rare.”

“Genius?”
