Ice and Fire novel Chapter 743

"I am the daughter-in-law of the Xiao Family now, and we will often meet each other in the future. You can like me or dislike me, but you just have to accept it. So grow used to it," said Violet. And then she walked to the dining room with a dish in her hand.

Violet's attitude and her words made Sharon uncomfortable. Violet was younger than her and yet, she was impolite and arrogant towards her. Sharon felt disgusted by her bad manners.

The family sat down for dinner and enjoyed it together. But Violet kept her focus on the food, and said nothing.

At intervals, Greg put some food onto Violet's plate. He paid immense attention to her needs.

Fred didn't think that there was something wrong with Violet. He felt happy that his son loved her deeply. He asked,"Greg, were you busy at the hospital today? Violet tried to find you there today, but she said she couldn't meet you."

Greg was surprised and he asked Violet,"You came to the hospital today?"

"Yes. I couldn't find you, so I left," said Violet nonchalantly while eating her food.

"Why didn't you call me?" asked Greg. Then he remembered that he had left his office after he had that quarrel with Cassie. He wondered if Violet had gone to find him at that time.

"I thought you might be busy with your work, so I didn't want to disturb you," said Violet. She didn't show her unhappiness in front of Fred and Sharon. Sharon was prejudiced against Violet. If she got petulant now, their dinner would be ruined.

Violet looked at Greg, saying softly,"It's okay. Let's just enjoy Auntie's delicious food now."

Saying that, Violet put some food onto Greg's plate.

Greg smiled and didn't ask any more questions.

After dinner, Fred and Greg were chatting in the living room. Violet accompanied them for a while, but she felt bored after some time had passed. They were talking about the hospital business and Violet couldn't understand much of what they were discussing. So she waited for the right time and told Fred,"Dad, I'm going upstairs. You continue your conversation with Greg."

Fred nodded.

Greg took her hand,"What's the matter? Are you unwell?"

"I am okay. I just don't understand what you are talking about anyway, so I thought I might as well get some rest," Violet said calmly.
