No one knew if this was a joint scam to lure him into a trap.
So he was not angry at Stanley's suspicion.
"Whether it's true or not, you can find out for yourself, anyway, what I should have said, I've already said." George said indifferently.
Stanley was silent for a moment, then spoke, "I know, no matter what, I thank you for this matter, but whether it is true or not, I will also go and check the truth."
With that, he hung up and put the phone down, then lowered his eyelids and wondered what he was thinking.
Violet came up after watching Jimmy at Marry's place, just in time to see the man standing in the corridor with his head slightly bowed and a cold aura radiating around him.
"Honey, what's wrong with you?" Violet looked at the man and her heart inexplicably sank, then walked over, took the man's hand and asked with concern, "Did something happen?"
The man's breath was oppressed and he looked like he was in a state of extreme anger.
It was not because he came here to keep her company and left Murphy Group alone that something happened to Murphy Group, right?
If that was the case, she felt more than guilty.
Stanley's eyes flickered for a moment, took her hand, gently holding it in his, gathering up the anger running through his heart and smiling at her, "It's fine."
"Is it really okay?" Violet looked at him, obviously still not quite convinced, "But you just seem to be very angry, if something happens, you should go and deal with it, don't hold it in like this, in case ......"
Before she could finish her words, she was held up by Stanley with a finger against her mouth, "Well, it's really fine, don't worry, if something is wrong, I will definitely take care of it."
He wasn't going to tell her about the conversation he had just had with George.
If she had known that Ivan might use her to threaten him, she would have blamed herself for her existence and might even have done something stupid.
What was more, she was about to have her final match and he didn't want to let that get in the way of her mood.
Otherwise, she was likely to lose the race.
In time, she might even give up her career.
Because she had already lost one tournament, Aimee did not win the international competition.
If, this time, she lose another match because of something else and again causes Aimee to not get the title, then she would in her heart feel guilty for the rest of her life, so guilty that she will give up her career.
Therefore, she must never be told.
Seeing that Stanley clearly had something on his mind, yet he didn't say anything, Violet sighed, "It makes me worry even more."
Stanley reached out and rubbed her hair, "It's really nothing, I can handle it, so don't think too much about it and trust me."
He looked at her, his eyes serious.
Violet's heart trembled, and finally gradually she settled down, "I trust you."
"That's right, well, it's getting late, let's go to sleep."
After saying that, Stanley took her hand and walked towards the room.
Violet looked at the side of his face, her mouth opened as if she wanted to say something else, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
When they returned to their room, Violet went to take a shower.
When she was holding Jimmy just now, Jimmy had spat up milk in her arms, and now her clothes were covered with milk stains and reeked of a milky smell.
So, she had to get washed up.
Stanley had been sitting on the sofa after Violet went into the bathroom, a glass of red wine in his hand, and was once again in deep thought.
After a while, he suddenly took out his mobile phone and called Fraser over, and told him about George's call.
After hearing that, Fraser drew a breath of cold air, “Mr. Murphy, is this true?"
"It's unclear at the moment, but I know George, there's no way he would joke about such things, so it's highly likely that what George said is true, but whether Ivan has lied to George is unknown at the moment." Stanley shook his head and said.
Fraser pushed his glasses, "No matter if what Ivan said is true or not, just because he involved Mrs. Murphy in this and threatened you, such a person simply should be blamed. Didn't he claim to love Mrs. Murphy? Hehe, is this love?"
This was a battle between him and Ivan, and he would not involve others in it, especially the one he loved most.
As Stanley squinted in thought, Violet opened the bathroom door and came out.
She had no clothes on, just a bath towel.
The slim-fitting bath towel showed off her figure to the best.
Stanley looked over, his eyes darkening, then reached out and hooked her waist as she walked over and got her into his arms.
Violet sat on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck.
Stanley moved over and sniffed her between her neck she closed her eyes slightly, "You smell good."
Violet smiled, "The scent of shower gel."
"No, it's your body scent." Stanley shook his head gently, then sniffed deeply at the nape of her neck.
Violet was tickled by the hot air he exhaled, and couldn't help but shrink her neck and laugh, "It tickles."
Stanley laughed, "Then I'll help you stop the itch."
Having said that, he carried her towards the bed.
Violet looked at the bed that was getting closer and closer, her face was flushed, "You ......"
That was actually what he meant by stopping the itch.
She thought, it was going to give her a scratch on her neck, but it turned out ......
Although quite annoyed with the man's behavior, Violet did not struggle and allowed the man to put herself on the bed.
There was clearly something not quite right about the man's mood tonight, and when she asked, he was reluctant to talk about it, holding it in.
So she knew that he needed to vent.
