Hearing these words, Viola was choked by bread in her throat. She drank some milk in a hurry. "Come on, who would really take a bath?"
"Then how did you deal with those flowers?" Bernard sat up straight, his eyes shining like diamonds.
"Go out, turn left and throw to the garbage can," said Viola.
Bernard's smile froze.
He licked his lips and took a deep breath. The smile on his face returned to normal. He snapped his fingers and said, "Come in!"
Just then, three bodyguards came in with gifts.
When Viola saw the three boxes placed in front of her, she got confused and asked, "What are you going to do, Bernard?"
"Surprise, open them and you'll know." With a mysterious smile, Bernard rested his chin on one hand and winked at Viola.
There was a faint smile on Viola's face. She opened the first box hopelessly and saw a necklace inlaid with sapphire. It was like a deep sea in the dark sky, containing unknown energy.
She paused and looked at him. "What are you doing?"
"If you are not satisfied, you can continue to see the second one." Bernard said with a smile.
After a short hesitation, Viola opened the second box. There were two shiny keys in it.
She took them in her hand and showed a fake smile, "What are they?"
"The car keys. As long as you agree, that limited edition sports car outside belongs to you." Bernard smiled.
A bad premonition arose in Viola's heart. She dropped her hand and the car keys dropped back to the second box.
This time, she opened the third box consciously and saw a black bank card in it. She bit her fingers subconsciously.
"This card is not limited to the amount. You can pay by card at any time and any place as long as you want." With a meaningful smile on his face, Bernard asked, "How's it going? Are you moved?"
Viola uneasily moved her body and continued to bite her finger. She swallowed hard and said, "I know I'm pretty, but your friend's wife can't be bullied. You change another one to cheat."
She thought herself to be considerate, kind and euphemistic.
As a result, she successfully made Bernard confused.
"…… These are gifts from Maynard for his apology." Bernard swallowed any words hurting her.
It suddenly dawned on Viola.
Her face suddenly turned cold. She pushed away the chair behind her and stood up. "I don't want it."
"This is what all women want. Why don't you want it?" Bernard was a little surprised.
With her hands around her chest, Viola turned her head angrily. "I just don't want him to protect Elly and let my brother go. However, he gave me a bunch of mess, which is too insincere!"
Viola walked around the table and went upstairs, ignoring Bernard's yelling. She opened the suitcase as soon as she entered the room, put the clothes inside and zipped it. Then she walked downstairs dragging the suitcase.
"Little ancestor, what are you doing?"
With his face turning pale, Bernard rushed to her and stopped her.
Viola simply spit out four words, "Running away from home."
After saying that, she walked out of the door by bypassing him with her luggage. As soon as she raised her head, she saw a pair of dark and cold eyes.
"Are you running away from home?"
Maynard walked in and stood in front of her with a tight expression on his cold face.
As soon as he came in, Bernard was relieved. He went upstairs quietly.
"Yes, I want to go back to my mother's house," said Viola, who immediately straightened her back
"No way." Maynard said and winked at the three bodyguards.
