The man sensed her response and was stunned for a moment, then as if encouraged, he picked her right up and sat her on top of him, kissing her even more forcefully.
It took so long that Violet gradually couldn't breathe and gently pushed the man.
The man got the hint, released her and wiped the corner of her mouth with his thumb.
Violet, meanwhile, was leaning into his arms, panting softly.
Two minutes later, Violet finally regained her composure and rubbed against the man's chest, "There's one thing that I need to tell you."
"Go ahead." Stanley twisted her hair and played with it.
Violet sat up straight from his arms, then pulled out a bank card from her shirt pocket and gave it to him.
Stanley took it suspiciously, "What is this?"
"Your share of the profits!" Violet looked at him with a wry smile.
Stanley looked at the playfulness in her eyes and suddenly understood something, turning his head to the side sheepishly.
Then Violet wrenched his head upright, "Look at me, don't try to hide!"
"I didn't!" Stanley's eyes wandered elsewhere.
Violet was amused, "You don't even dare to look at me, and you haven't hid yet?"
The corners of Stanley's mouth twitched and he didn't say anything anymore.
After a few seconds, he resumed speaking, "When did you know?"
"It's today, Jessie said that she suddenly couldn't contact his secretary, and she failed to get touch with Mr. Dixon, then Calvin told me that you are Mr. Dixon."
Said Violet, cupping the man's face with both hands, "If Calvin hadn't told me, were you planning to hide it from me for the rest of your life?"
Stanley's thin lips twitched in acquiescence.
Violet sighed, "Why?"
"I don't want you to have a burden in your heart!" Stanley finally looked at her, his eyebrows full of tenderness, "At the very beginning when I invested, I wasn't with you yet, you definitely wouldn't accept my investment. After that we got married, I didn't tell you, because I just didn't want you to think that you were relying on me to create the company, I didn't want you to have that much pressure."
Many women are obviously good in their own right, but because they let their husbands do them a favor, others deny that woman's excellence and think that the reason that woman has done so well in her career is because of her husband's help.
Just like the circle of Mrs. Bennet. Mrs. Bennet is a very capable woman and she borrowed a sum of money from her husband to start her own company, and then everyone thinks that Mrs. Bennet was able to start the company because of her husband, without thinking that her husband only contributed a sum of money, and the rest is the effort of Mrs. Bennet herself.
He didn't want his wife, too, to be viewed by outsiders with such narrow-minded eyes.
Violet read Stanley's thoughts through his eyes, and her heart warmed, "I know, thank you."
Stanley stroked her hair, "We're married, you never have to say thank you to me."
Violet nodded with a light smile.
Stanley gave her the card, "Keep this money."
"No, it's your ......"
"My salary is for you." Stanley cut her off.
Violet was speechless for a moment, and after a moment, she took the card over, "Well, since it's your salary, I'll take it."
Stanley nodded.
The couple did not come out from the studio until the maids called them to have evening meal.
Soon, two nights passed and the day of Violet and Stanley's wedding finally arrived.
Neither Violet nor Stanley had invited too many guests, adding up to just over a hundred people.
