"Yeah, it's my mother." Violet smiled.
Fraser breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good!"
"Huh?" Violet looked at him unclearly, "Fraser, why are you so happy?"
"Am I?" Fraser pretended that nothing happened, "Well, Violet, I'll go back first, bye!"
After speaking, he turned around with the business card and entered the apartment opposite.
After closing the door, Fraser sighed slightly, looked at the business card in his hand, and smiled helplessly.
Ever since Violet left the celebration banquet, Mr. Murphy pulled a long face. Don’t think he didn’t know that Mr. Murphy was curious about the person that Violet picked up. Otherwise, why would he come here?
So for Mr. Murphy, Fraser had to knock on Violet's door. If Mr. Murphy knew that the person Violet picked up wasn’t a man, but her mother, he should be in a good mood, right?
Thinking about it, Fraser squeezed the business card and walked to the study.
"Mr. Murphy." Fraser shouted at the door.
Stanley sat on the chair and looked up at him, "What did you do?"
"Didn't you say that the cabinet can't be opened? I went to Violet’s house to ask for the property’s business card." Fraser handed the business card to Stanley.
Stanley didn't answer. His eyelids drooped. No one knew what he was thinking.
Fraser cleared his throat slightly, "Mr. Murphy, Violet's mother looks so young."
"What?" Stanley's back straightened slightly.
There was a smile in Fraser's eyes behind the glasses, and then he said, "Violet's mother!"
"The person in her family is her mother?" Stanley rubbed his pen. The cold aura all over his body was obviously diminishing.
Fraser nodded, "Yes."
Stanley pursed his thin lips, "Why did you tell me that?"
"Nothing, just want to share with you what I saw." Fraser said with a smile.
For what? To make you happy!
"Okay, put down the business card. Did you have any clues?" Stanley dropped the pen, put his fingers on the desk, and asked in a deep voice.
After putting down the business card, Fraser became serious, "No, but it is certain that it was not Ivan."
Stanley tapped his finger on the desktop, "Since it is not him, then investigate the other companies who have hatred against the Murphy Group!"
"Yes!" Fraser replied.
Stanley stood up, "Let's go back to the villa."
"Mr. Murphy, won't you live here tonight?" Fraser raised his eyebrows and asked.
Stanley's eyes flashed slightly, and he gave a hmm.
He had already decided, so Fraser didn't say anything anymore. Then they walked out of the study and to the door of the apartment.
As soon as the door was opened, the door on the opposite side was also opened. Lily came out from the inside carrying a garbage bag. When she saw Stanley, she couldn't help but stunned, "Are...are you that kid from the Murphy family?"
She pointed to Stanley with some uncertainty.
Stanley raised his eyebrows, "Hello, Ma’am!"
Fraser snickered behind him.
This was the first time he heard someone called Mr. Murphy "that kid".
Then Fraser suddenly felt that something was wrong. He felt chilly. Then he looked up. After seeing Stanley's cold eyes, he shivered and quickly stopped laughing.
Then Stanley looked away.
Lily saw this scene.
She couldn't help covering her lips, "By the way, are you Stanley, right?"
Stanley nodded, "Yes."
"Then can I call you Stanley?" Lily asked gently.
Grandpa's death had always entangled in his mind.
The family doctor said that Grandpa was very healthy and he could live for more than ten years at least.
But Grandpa passed away suddenly one day seven years ago. There was absolutely a problem in it. So in the past seven years, he had never stopped investigating, but he had found nothing.
"Your grandfather committed suicide!" Lily looked up at Stanley, and told the truth about the death of Jordan.
Violet covered her mouth in surprise.
Fraser's eyes widened in shock.
Only Stanley gritted his teeth, unwilling to believe this fact, "It’s impossible!"
How could Grandpa commit suicide?
What reason caused him to commit suicide?
"It’s true. Your grandfather told me this personally." Lily's face was very serious.
Stanley's thin lips moved. His voice was a little hoarse, "Then tell me, why did he commit suicide?"
"I don't know the specific reason, but the day before your grandfather passed away, I met with him. He said that if he lived one more day, he would be overwhelmed with regret and guilt in his heart. Now he made the marriage contract for you, then he could go to make amends to your parents." Lily patted Stanley on the shoulder.
Violet bit her lip and guessed boldly, "So, does the death of Mr. Murphy's parents have something to do with Mr. Murphy’s Grandpa?"
She looked at Stanley.
Stanley's eyelids drooped. He didn’t say anything. A gloomy aura exuded all over his body.
Lily shook her head, "I don't know about this. But it should be, otherwise he wouldn't say such words."
"Mr. Murphy..." Violet called Stanley with some worry.
Stanley took a deep breath. After suppressing the emotion in his mind, he bowed slightly to Lily, "Thank you for telling me this. I will visit you again another day. Bye!"
After speaking, he took Fraser away.
Violet kept watching him enter the elevator, then retracted and closed the door. When she turned around, she met Lily's deep eyes. Lily asked, "Violet, tell me, did you fall in love with Stanley?"
