The door opened and Violet stood in the doorway, looking at Alisha's haughty expression and said in a faint voice, "Mrs. Williams, can I have my Auntie Paige's relics now?"
Alisha smiled coldly, "Violet, who are you to tell me what to do? If you want to get something, go upstairs and get it yourself."
Violet looked at her steadily and did not make a sound for a moment.
Brooklyn, who was on one side, said, "Helena, come on, I'll walk you in to get your stuff."
Violet gave him a look and nodded.
"Hey, I'm the only one in the house today, so it's not good for you to come in as an outside man."
Alisha stopped Brooklyn.
Violet was amused, "Mrs. Williams, what do you mean? Afraid of what my friend might do to you? Do you want me to get you a mirror? I don't think every man is hungry for an old woman."
"You!"
Alisha choked and her face changed for a moment.
Brooklyn smiled back and was about to walk Violet into the house when her phone rang.
He took out his cell phone and looked at it and found that it was the servant of the house calling.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Brooklyn, it's not good, come back quickly, Mrs. Scott has passed out."
"What? What's going on?" Brooklyn asked with a start.
"Mrs. Scott passed out when she couldn't catch her breath."
The servant hurriedly returned the call.
"I got it, I'll be right back."
Brooklyn put the phone away, looked at Violet and said somewhat apologetically, "Helena, I'm sorry, I've had a family emergency and I need to get back right away."
Violet froze and nodded, "Okay, you hurry back."
"But you're here."
Brooklyn glanced at Alisha with some hesitation.
"It's okay, I'll leave after I get my stuff."
Violet smiled and brought the bag in her hand towards her arms.
"Then get back in touch."
