Violet patted the back of her hand, "I'm sorry, Jessie, for making you worry."
"I'm the one who should say I'm sorry, I failed to save you from the parking lot, Violet ......"
Violet covered her mouth, "I know, I heard from Fraser that you almost got hit by a car to stop me from being taken away, I should be the one to apologize to you, because I was the one who asked you to accompany me, but it's good that you're fine."
If Jessie had really been hit by a car, Violet could never have peace of mind in her life.
"By the way, how on earth did you manage to survive?" Jessie asked, looking at Violet's sound hands and feet.
Her thoughts were the same as Henry's. It was impossible to fall down that high of a cliff without anything happening, which really surprised her.
Violet smiled and didn't hide it from her, telling her how she and Ivan had survived.
Jessie lamented after hearing that, "It's true that good people have good karma, otherwise how could it be so coincidental that there happens to be a tree underneath you guys, but even if you guys were hung up in the tree, when you fell to the ground, you would get hurt."
"I'm fine, but Ivan broke one of his legs and dislocated both of his arms." Violet said as she recalled Ivan's tragic condition at that time.
And she wondered how he was doing now.
From what Stanley had said, Ivan had run away while she was in a coma, and now Stanley was having people look for him, and she didn't know if Stanley had found him.
"He's really miserable." Jessie pressed her lips and gloated.
Then, she realized something else and her eyes widened, "No, you fell from the tree together, he fell like this but nothing happened to you, he have saved you, hadn’t he?"
"No way?" Violet was stunned.
Jessie narrowed his eyes and speculated, "It's not impossible, otherwise how else can you explain why there's such a big difference in your injuries."
"Well ......" Violet didn't say anything anymore, but her heart beat much faster.
It was hard to believe that it was really Ivan who saved her.
But why would he do that?
He was the one who kidnapped her, held her hostage and jumped off the cliff, so why did he end up saving her?
Unable to figure it out, Violet bit her lip and forgot about it.
No matter the reason was, or if it was Ivan who saved her, she would know everything when Ivan was caught.
At that moment, there was a movement on the stairs.
Violet and Jessie turned their heads together to see that Ivy was holding the railing and coming down from above.
Ivy smiled at the two, "Miss Hunt, Miss Robinson."
"Hello, Miss Ellis." Jessie nodded and greeted her.
Ivy's gaze fell on Violet, "Miss Robinson, are you here to see Miss Hunt?"
"Yes." Jessie took a sip of the honey tea Bella had made.
"In that case, I won't bother you guys, take your time to talk." Ivy finished speaking and walked towards the garden outside.
Jessie saw her walking away before she lowered her voice to Violet and said, "Violet, isn’t she with Dr. Baxter? Why is she still living here?"
"Dr. Baxter said he'll pick her up when the room finished decoration." Violet said as she picked up her glass of water and took a sip.
Jessie nodded, "Good, but she shouldn't be living here, you're Mr. Murphy's wife, and she had interest in Mr. Murphy. You should stop that."
Violet smiled and didn't say anything.
Jessie bristled, "Isn't Mr. Murphy afraid that you guys will fight?"
"Alright, let's talk about something else." Violet didn't want to talk about Ivy.
In case she heard them, she thought they were bad-mouthing her.
Jessie knew that, she shrugged her shoulders and changed the topic.
By noon, Jessie left after lunch.
Violet went back to her room to draw her own design.
At that moment, her phone rang.
Violet put down the pencil in her hand, picked it up and found it was an unknown number.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Violet still answered it, "Who is it?"
