Ice and Fire novel Chapter 745

Sharon walked upstairs and found that Greg's bedroom door was slightly open, and Violet was sitting on the bed. Instead of going into her own bedroom, Sharon decided to confront Violet.

She walked to the door, pushed it open abruptly, and stared at Violet.

Violet was taken aback by the sudden noise, she turned around and saw Sharon.

"Sharon," Violet said coldly, and stood up.

Sharon slowly walked up to Violet, looked at her face and said,"It's just you and me here, you don't need to pretend to be nice to me."

Violet looked towards the door, and didn't see Greg or Dad. It was true, it really was just them in the room. She pulled herself together, looked back at Sharon and said,"I'm not an actor and I don't do things like pretending for no reason."

Disdain reflected in Sharon's eyes. She lifted her right hand and pushed Violet on her shoulder, saying,"Quit it! You said you loved Greg, but when it came to money, you ultimately chose it over him, didn't you?"

Violet knew very well that it was Sharon who had set her up five years ago, and she was the reason why Greg had left her.

"My love for Greg has never changed," Violet answered firmly. But at the moment, she struggled inside while saying that. With Cassie in the picture, Greg was never going to be hers again. What was worse, this woman in front of her had held a grudge against her ever since the day they first met. She felt tired all of a sudden, exhausted by all the events that were happening around her.

"Really? Then why did you accept my money and leave Greg?" Sharon deliberately asked, although she knew the truth better than anyone else.

"You know why. You forced me to take that money. I told you that I loved Greg, even when we were not together," Violet said. She felt depressed and didn't want to talk anymore. Also Sharon didn't mean anything to her, so she didn't want to explain herself to Sharon.

"You are such a hypocrite. What do you think will happen if I told Greg that you had accepted a hundred million dollars from me in order to leave him?" Sharon asked condescendingly, although she wouldn't dare tell Greg about it. She knew that if she did, she would only get herself in trouble, or even worse, she might be thrown out of this house.

Violet was shocked by her words. She met Sharon's eyes, and said in all seriousness,"Don't you dare tell him. We don't need you, an outsider, to intervene in our matters."

"Outsider? Are you calling me an outsider?" Sharon fumed and slapped hard across Violet's cheek.

Greg had been standing outside the door for long enough to hear every detail of their conversation. He just stood there quietly till he heard the loud slap. He wanted to rush in to stop Sharon and protect the woman he loved, but he couldn't stop thinking about what he had just heard, 'A hundred million dollars? To leave me? What's all this about?'

Red fingerprints had appeared on Violet's cheek, she turned away from Sharon. She felt helpless, just like when Sharon had forced her to take the money and leave Greg five years ago.

Sharon froze when she heard Greg's voice. She loosened her grip on Violet's neck, and turned her trembling body around to face him.

"Let me explain, Greg. It's not what you think," Sharon cried, her hands swinging around frantically as she tried to explain herself.

Violet fell on the bed, her mouth opened widely, trying to intake as much oxygen as possible.

Greg's deep eyes glared at Sharon. He shouted,"Get out!"

Sharon knew that Greg was angry and she didn't want to push her luck. If she tried to explain more, she might end up crawling out of the room.

She shivered as she hurriedly walked away from Greg, and rushed out of the room.

Greg walked towards Violet and immediately saw the red mark on her face. He knew that it was because of Sharon.

Violet adjusted herself quickly and stood up. She looked at Greg, but she couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
