There were two voices inside him, one warning him not to get entangled with Violette.
The other urging him to go see Violette's daughter.
Even if Violette's daughter wasn't his, he wanted to see how much she looked like her.
And that blond guy, he was a thorn in his heart!
Silverleaf Ridge.
Odette came over with a new puzzle she bought, b
ut when she knocked on the door, Mike answered, shirtless.
"Why are you always half-naked?" Odette complained, "There are other people in the house, like baby Rita! Can't you have some decency?"
Mike, still half-asleep, replied, "Why didn't you bring breakfast? Last time you bought some, it was pretty good!"
Odette
put down the puzzle and went towards the master bedroom, b
ut Violette wasn't there.
"Did Violette go to work?" Odette came out of the bedroom and asked.
Mike yawned, "If she's not here, she's probably at work!"
"What about Aunt Albina? Did she take the kids to school?"
"If she's not here, she's probably out!" Mike went back to his room and put on a T-shirt.
Odette followed him and asked, "So you and Violette don't sleep in the same room? Guess your relationship hasn't escalated to that level yet!"
"Why are you so nosy? Even if Violette and I don't sleep together, our bond is stronger than any other man's!" Mike proudly said and left the room.
Albina had prepared breakfast in the kitchen, so he
walked straight to the kitchen to eat.
"Mike."
"Okay, Mike. You know Elijah, right? He got a new girlfriend named Sarah. Yesterday, she went to have dinner with Violette, and during the meal, she deliberately used hot water..."
"What?! She threw boiling water on Violette?!" Mike shouted, tossing his fork, ready to fight.
Odette held him back, "Let me finish! She didn't throw it on Violette! She threw it on herself! Then she accused Violette of doing it! Can you believe how disgusting she is?!"
Mike's face turned red with anger, "How could she do that?! Violette would feel guilty even stepping on an ant, let alone throwing hot water on someone!"
"Exactly! The worst part is, Elijah called Violette to confront her about it, all for that Sarah! Can you believe how infuriating that is?!"
Mike: "It's outrageous! If I were Violette, I'd run to his face and yell at him!"
Odette wiped the sweat from her forehead, "Well, maybe not that extreme!"
Mike: "Why not?! That Sarah must have a death wish, slandering Violette like that!"
Mike started brainstorming how to get back at Sarah in his head.
