Hearing the displeasure in the man's tone, Violet realized that the man was a little unhappy about her coming to the bar. Then she couldn't help feeling a little wronged.
"Mom won Eason today. She was so happy. So she dragged me to the bar to celebrate." Violet rubbed her temples and explained.
Stanley was taken aback for a moment.
It turned out to be so.
He thought she ran to the bar to play by herself.
"Which bar are you at? I'll come to pick you up." Stanley sorted out his emotions and asked.
Violet said the name and address of the bar.
Stanley hung up the phone after giving a hmm.
Violet looked at the phone which had jumped back to the main menu, and turned off the screen, ready to put it back in her bag.
Suddenly, an unexpected voice came, "Oh, isn't this Violet?"
Ivan?
Violet straightened her back and then turned to look. Ivan was standing opposite her while holding a woman in sexy clothes, looking at her in surprise.
Violet was a little surprised, and couldn't help sighing that this world was really small. She could actually meet him here.
"Hello, Director Murphy." Violet put the phone back in her bag and faintly greeted Ivan.
Ivan let go of the woman in his arms, waved his hand, and motioned for the woman to leave first.
The woman was a little unhappy.
Ivan narrowed his eyes and glanced at her coldly.
She was startled and her face turned pale. Then she hurriedly lowered her head and left.
But before leaving, she didn't forget to glared Violet.
Because from the woman's point of view, it was the appearance of Violet that made this big shot abandon her.
Violet only felt speechless, just thinking that she was too wronged.
Ivan supported his forehead and laughed, looking in a good mood.
Violet squinted at him, "Director Murphy, have you laughed enough?"
Ivan adjust his glasses, put away his smiling face and nodded solemnly, "Enough. I watched a good show."
"Didn't you cause this good show?" Violet rolled her eyes at Ivan inwardly.
Ivan shrugged, "I didn't expect to meet you here. You just got married but actually came to this place to drink. Aren’t you afraid that Stanley would be upset?"
"It’s none of your business." Violet put Lily's bag on her shoulder.
Ivan noticed that there was still someone else on the booth, then he couldn't help but looked at it twice.
It was just that the person's head was buried on the table, and the lights on the booth were dim.
"Violet, your friend?" Ivan asked Violet while pointing at Lily.
Violet didn't lie to him, and replied, "My mom."
"Your mom?" Stanley moved forward in surprise, then thought of something, "I remember your mom seems to be the goddaughter of my grandfather, right?"
"You know it?" Violet was shocked.
Stanley didn’t know that her mother was the goddaughter of his grandfather. It was her mother who told Stanley.
Unexpectedly, Ivan actually knew it.
Ivan's glasses reflected light, "I also heard from my grandfather before. He and your mom had a good relationship and often chatted together."
"That's it." Violet nodded.
Ivan's eyes drooped and then he looked at Lily, "Is she drunk?"
"Yes." Violet said.
Ivan smiled and asked, "Do you need me to give you a ride?"
"No!" Before Violet answered, Stanley appeared suddenly and refused Ivan.
Violet looked up at him in surprise, "You are here."
"Skip a grade?" Violet said, "Calvin is already studying junior high school courses. If he skips a grade again, it will be high school. Can he adapt?"
She was a little worried.
Stanley sat down on the sofa with his arm around her shoulders, "Yes, I have asked Calvin. He said he could, so I'll tell you."
"That's it. Then you can arrange it." Violet nodded and glanced upstairs.
At this time, Calvin was studying.
While the two were talking, Bella came down from upstairs, "Mr. Murphy, Mrs. Murphy, I have already settled Ms. Smith down."
"Thank you, Bella." Violet smiled gratefully to Bella.
Bella waved her hand, "You’re welcome."
After speaking, she was busy again.
Violet yawned, a tear oozing from the corner of her eyes.
Stanley stretched out his hand and wiped away the tear with his thumb, "Are you sleepy?"
"Yeah." Violet leaned on his shoulder and replied a little sleepily.
Stanley picked her up.
She was taken aback, then her sleepiness disappeared instantly. She quickly put her arms around his neck, "What are you doing?"
"Aren't you sleepy? I will hold you upstairs." Stanley glanced at her, then got up and walked towards the stairs.
Violet was afraid that Bella would hear something, so she said in a low voice in his ear, "No need. Put me down. I can go up by myself."
Stanley pretended that he didn't hear it. He held her in his arms and continued walking up the stairs.
Violet knew that he wouldn't put her down. She had no choice but to bury her head in his neck and let him go.
Back in the room, Stanley didn't put Violet on the bed, but went directly to the bathroom before putting her down.
Violet turned on the faucet in the bathtub and prepared to take a bath. When she turned back and saw the man standing still, she couldn't help but raised her eyebrows, "Aren't you going out?"
