Ian: "Rita looks just like a mom."
Violette: "Ian, he is indeed your father, but he doesn't like kids. So, you guys better not try to acknowledge him. If he finds out you guys are his children, I don't know what he might do to you."
Ian: "We don't want a father like that."
Violette: "Ian, I think that you've changed a lot since you came back, and you've made a lot of progress."
Ian: "Mom, I'm fine. It's just that I find those people childish and boring."
Violette noded: "I know. You like smart people now, like Uncle Mike, but when you really mature,
you'll find that not-so-smart people have their own characteristics too. We have to learn to
find the good in others. For example, kindness and simplicity are also good qualities."
Although Ian didn't agree with his mom's words for now, he didn't argue. Maybe when he grew up a bit more, he'll understand the meaning behind his mom's words.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Sarah returned home, opened the package she received in the afternoon.
She was disappointed with the birthday gift from Elijah, because most likely, it was not personally chosen by him. It was sent by the store clerk, so maybe he asked his assistant to pick it.
And indeed, Elijah asked Joey to pick the gift, and Joey picked a Chanel purse for her.
Sarah looked at the purse, and Violette's face appeared in her mind.
Elijah lied to her for Violette. He said Makayla was in a bad mood, staying home to accompany Makayla, but he was actually with Violette.
He canceled their date for Violette.
If it was just a regular date, she might not care too much, but today was her birthday!
She felt really hurt.
The next day.
After sitting down, Sarah laughed and asked, "Ms. Dennis, did you start your own business right after graduation? I heard AN Tech is your company. You're amazing. Not like me, always working at the hospital, not making much money."
Violette: "Didn't Elijah pay you for treating Makayla? He spent two billion on a missing person's ad, he should at least give you two billion in compensation, right?"
Sarah's smile stiffened: "He did want to give me two billion, but how could I dare to accept such a large sum of money."
"Oh, you're afraid that if you take the money, it'd be awkward to have him as your boyfriend, right?" Violette bluntly spoke.
"Ms. Sarah, I'm sorry! I'm very straightforward, I hope you don't mind." Violette took a sip of tea.
Sarah smiled slightly: "It's okay, I know you have a problem with me. If it weren't for me, you'd still have a chance to get back together with Elijah."
Violette: "Ms. Sarah, you're mistaken. I have a problem with you because you're shameless."
Sarah looked hurt and asked, "What do you mean? Is it because I got Elijah, so you have so much hatred for me?"
