Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 1198

Chapter 1198 Silenced by Her
Violet's gaze sharpened as she uttered, "Hold off on terminating her employment for the time being."

A cold smirk played on her lips. "Let her remain for now."

"And tell her, I agree to her conditions."

Six hundred thousand—wasn't that all?

For Violet, six hundred thousand was nothing more than loose change.

She hesitated at the idea of parting with such a sum to Lucy—not due to financial strain, but because she questioned the worth of exchanging such a hefty amount for Lucy's services.

But things are different now...

She sat there, watching the car disappear down the road, her eyes brimming with bitterness.

A soft chuckle escaped her lips. "And while you're at it, see how Lucy's been faring these days."

Ending the call, Violet reclined in her chair, collected herself, and dialed Lennon's number with poise.

After a brief pause, he answered the call.

Violet's voice carried a melodic lilt as she spoke, "Where are you right now, Lenn?"

There was a momentary pause on the other end. "I'm in the hospital."

"The Hospital? Why? Are you sick?"

"It's just a headache; I had a restless night," Lennon replied.

"Ahh, I see," Violet acknowledged

A subtle smile played on her lips. "I bumped into Lucy earlier."

"She remains as infuriating as always. Ugh, why does she have to be the one to handle my birthday party!" Violet vented.

"If only my birthday wasn't coming up in just three days, or I wouldn't have gotten her services! It's so vexing!"

The man on the other end let out a chuckle, "Just disregard her presence. Act as if she's not even there."

When Lucy regained consciousness in the hospital, she found Colin seated beside her, engrossed in sketching comics on a sketchbook.

Struggling to move, she queried, "Why am I here? What happened?"
