Ivan waved his hand mysteriously without answering. Then he rolled up the car window and drove away.
Seeing his car go away, Violet drooped her eyelids. No one knew what she was thinking.
"Mommy, let's go." Calvin took Violet's hand.
Violet cleared her minds and smiled at him, "Okay."
The mother and son walked into the 4S shop and signed the contract.
The car could be driven away directly with a temporary license plate.
So Violet was very straightforward and drove it away, ready to go back to the studio.
But on the way, she received a call from Jessie, "Violet, good news."
Listening to the unconcealed excitement and joy in Jessie's voice, Violet suddenly guessed what the good news was. She smiled, "Is George awake?"
"Yes." Jessie nodded repeatedly.
Violet was also very happy, "Then I'll come over right away."
After speaking, she pressed the Bluetooth headset on her ears, hung up the phone, turned around at the turntable intersection in front, and drove to the hospital.
In just half an hour, she arrived at the hospital.
Violet walked in with Calvin and shouted, "George!"
"Violet, you are here." George was drinking water with the straw. Hearing her voice, he barely raised his neck and managed a weak smile at her.
Violet gave a hmm, walked over, put Calvin down, and looked at George with concern, "How do you feel?"
Calvin also looked at him.
George shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's not very good. Now I finally understand what it feels like for those patients who are lying in bed and unable to move."
Jessie put the water glass aside, "George, don't move. Be careful of your wounds."
"No need." George replied faintly. His attitude towards her and the attitude towards Violet were completely two extremes.
Jessie's face froze. Her eyes drooped dimly, then she didn’t speak.
Seeing this, Violet felt a little sad, and said, "Jessie..."
"I'm fine. You guys talk. I'll go out and buy something." After speaking, Jessie picked up the bag, lowered her head to cover the expression on her face, and walked past Violet.
Violet stretched out her hand, trying to stop Jessie, but she was stopped by George, "Violet, leave her alone. Let her go. It would be better for her to go."
"Why?" Violet pushed Calvin aside and let him play by himself, then looked at George puzzledly, "I don't understand why you treat Jessie like this?"
Of the three of them, Jessie and George knew each other first, but Violet didn't know how early they knew.
She met them five years ago. At that time, George's attitude toward Jessie was not as cold as it was now. It only became like this three years ago. So what happened three years ago?
Hearing Violet's question, George's glasses were reflecting light, making it impossible to see the look in his eyes.
After a few seconds, he smiled faintly, "Violet, this is the grudge between the Robinson family and the Joe family, so don't ask."
Violet's eyes widened in surprise.
She thought it was just a problem between him and Jessie.
Unexpectedly, two families were involved, so she didn't ask anymore.
"Okay, I see." Violet nodded.
George raised his hand to take off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, "By the way, Violet, I heard Jessie said that Mr. Murphy handled the follow-up to my car accident?"
"Yes." Violet couldn't help but stunned for a while when she heard him suddenly mention Stanley.
George saw it and narrowed his eyes, "Then did Mr. Murphy say anything? For example, the cause of my car accident?"
"Yes, it was said that the driver was drunk and the brakes failed, which caused the car accident. Didn't Jessie tell you?" Violet tilted her head in confusion.
George saw that she really didn't know, and then he smiled, "No, maybe Jessie has forgotten it."
