Ice and Fire novel Chapter 768

It didn't occur to him that Violet was a high class lady. Even though she was in designer clothes, she didn't wear any valuable jewelry nor emit an unreachable aura. Now that she was in his car, the driver assumed that she led a comfortable life, but far from being upper class. He guessed that the people from respectable or wealthy families never took a taxi in their lives.

"Tina is not that sort of girl. There must be some misunderstanding," Violet defended Tina. 'Even though I only met her several times and she was unfriendly, I don't think she is a loose woman who would have sex with strangers. Besides, what about those pictures? Who took them?' she pondered.

"So you know her?" the man asked, his voice carrying evident suspicion and contempt. With a tinge of scornful smile written on his face, he voiced his opinion,"You're too naive. Nine out of ten rich girls are self-indulgent. They have lived with comfort since they were born. They may look like well-behaved ladies, but who knows their true colors?"

"What if GR Group was set up? Have you ever thought about that? Suppose what you said are true, but why did the media only report the negative news on Tina? Don't you think it's suspicious?" Violet blurted out her doubts. She didn't fathom the whole situation, but she just felt something was wrong. According to what she learnt, she believed that Tina wasn't a loose woman. That was why she tried to defend Tina.

"Well," the driver hesitated. After mulling for a while, he continued,"Your assumption makes sense. I heard that there are many grudges between rich families. Perhaps the Gu family offended some big shot, so that guy took his revenge on Tina. Who knows?"

Violet didn't respond. She looked out the window, hoping to arrive at the GR Group as soon as posible.

The taxi stopped outside the GR Group's building and Violet got out of the cab. Spotting that a few reporters still guarded the front exit, Violet decided not to enter the building from the front door. She was afraid that the reporters might make up stories once they saw her.

Knowing another way to the building, she went straight to the side entrance.

As she was about to enter the building, she was stopped by two security personnel.

"Only staff are allowed to enter," one security said coldly. Recently, many people tried to sneak into the company. The security obeyed their boss's order and wouldn't allow any outsiders in.

"I worked here and my name is Violet Chu. I have something urgent and I need to meet Mr. Roger now," Violet explained, not intending to break in.

"Violet Chu?" the other security guard repeated Violet's name.

"Yes, I'm Violet Chu," Violet replied immediately.

The guard said to the other one beside him,"She worked here once. She isn't a reporter. I heard about her before."

The other security guard surveyed Violet up and down. 'She doesn't look like those annoying reporters, ' he thought.

"Come in." They finally let her through.

"Thank you guys. Thank you," Violet said gratefully. Relieved, she strode to the lift.
