After this one video incident, Stanley had no desire to work.
Once the secretary had cleaned up the office, he stayed in his chair in contemplation.
It wasn't until Violet called in the afternoon that he barely managed to find some spirit.
"Honey, are you busy today?" Violet asked over the phone.
Stanley lowered his eyes, "No, why?"
"Uh ......" She was not sure if it was an illusion, Violet felt that his tone was a bit cold, but he said so
little that she wasn't sure.
Maybe it was really her mishearing.
Thinking like this, Violet didn't take this to heart and smiled, "Usually you come over to pick me up at
this hour, but you are not here today, so I call you and think you are busy."
"Well, I'll be right there." Stanley said.
"Ok, be safe." Violet nodded her head.
Hearing that, Stanley's pupils twitched, his face went icy. The image of the red car that had crashed
through his parents came to his mind.
Stanley put down his phone, got up and walked out to the balcony to let the cold wind cool his mind
down.
If he couldn't calm down, he wouldn't even know how to drive.
After about a few minutes, Stanley left the office and drove to Violet's company.
Violet chatted with Aimee and Jessie on the first floor of the company.
Aimee was about to go abroad to participate in a competition, so she came to say goodbye to Violet
and Jessie.
As the three were talking, a black Maybach pulled up and parked next to them.
"Violet, your husband is here." Aimee nudged Violet with an ambiguous smile.
Violet gave her an blank look, "Play well in your competition, I'm also going abroad for an international
competition next month, so maybe we can meet there."
"Sure, I heard from my teacher that the international competition of your clothing design has a link with
our jewelry design competition in the final, so as long as we can both make it to the final, we can
definitely meet." Aimee patted Violet's shoulder.
Jessie said with a smile, "You two are excellent, so it is easy for you to enter the final."
"That's true." Violet and Aimee gave a smile.
Violet waved at the two, "Alright, Jessie, Aimee, I gotta go."
"Bye!" Aimee and Jessie nodded their heads.
Violet walked up to the Maybach, pulled open the passenger door and sat in, "Sorry, Stanley, for having
you been waiting for you long."
Stanley didn't say anything, but stared at her face.
She had a beautiful face. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
It reminded him of the childish face in the video he had watched today.
Whether or not they hit his parents, they were involved in the incident.
What, exactly, should he do with her?
"Stanley? Stanley?" Seeing Stanley had a wandering mind, Violet frowned suspiciously and reached
out to wave her hand in front of his eyes.
Stanley pulled back his thought, "What's wrong?"
"I wondered what happened to you. You were in a daze and did not hear me." Violet said.
Stanley lowered his eyelids to hide the emotions in his eyes, and his voice trailed off as he answered,
"Sorry, let’s go."
"Ok." Violet nodded, but she was confused.
What the hell was wrong with him?
He had something in his mind but she wasn't being told, was something wrong with the company?
Neither spoke on the way. The carriage was quiet with only the sound of shallow breathing.
Originally, Violet wanted to spoke, but Stanley didn't answer her, but just stared at the road ahead, as if
he heard nothing.
Violet naturally couldn't say anything more.
After all, it was kind of awkward to talk when no one was responding.
Soon, they reached the kindergarten.
The two children got into the car with a joyful mood, "Daddy, Mommy."
"Daddy, Mommy, why are you guys so late today? You're half an hour later than usual." Calvin said as
he looked at his watch.
Arya had little sense of time and didn't know if the two were late, but hearing her brother said so, she
nodded.
Violet turned her head and looked at the two children apologetically, "I'm sorry, we were delayed on the
way because Daddy was busy with work."
The two children nodded.
Then Calvin added, "Since daddy is busy, dad doesn’t need to pick us up, bust just needs to focus on
work."
"Yes." Arya nodded.
Seeing the two children so well behaved in the rearview mirror, Stanley's heart was warm and
complicated.
He was happy that the two children cared about him.
But if it was really Violet's mother ran over his parents, how should he face two children?
"Stanley?" Stanley wandered off again and Violet asked with a concerned expression, "What's wrong
with you?"
"No." Stanley dropped his eyes and started the car.
He was unwilling to talk about it and his tone was cold, Violet did not ask again.
The two children sensed that something was wrong between their parents and looked at each other.
Did Mommy and Daddy have a fight?
The atmosphere between the family of four on the way was odd and dull.
It wasn't until they got home that the two children breathed a sigh of relief.
"Bella." Bella and Ivy stood at the door of the villa to greet them.
The two kids got out of the car and ran towards Bella, ignoring Ivy.
Ivy was unprecedentedly not angry. She paid no attention to the two children, but looked towards
Stanley and Violet.
Seeing Stanley's tense expression and complicated eyes, her thin lips curled up slightly.
Stanley saw it, or he would not act this.
But why didn't he break up with Violet?
Ivy looked towards Violet with doubts.
Violet was taking Stanley's briefcase.
Stanley gave it to her.
Seeing a scene of the two getting along as usual, Ivy pursed her lips and felt resentful.
What the hell was going on?
Didn't Stanley already see the video? Why did he still treat Violet like that?
Did he think the video was fake?
At this thought, Ivy bit her lip.
If so, a video was not enough, other evidences were needed.
She must make Stanley and Violet break up, so she took out the video she had saved for so many
years.
After all, that video was recorded by her ......
Ivy's eyes went dim and she did not think more. Seeing Violet and Stanley approach, she greeted with
a smile, "Stanley, Miss Hunt, welcome back."
"Miss Ellis." Violet nodded and responded lightly.
Stanley looked at Ivy wearing only two thin clothes and frowned, "Why are you wearing so little?"
"I was in the living room, and it was not cold." Ivy fixed her wig and gave a smile.
"Let's go in." Stanley nodded and lifted his feet towards the villa.
Ivy followed closely behind.
Stanley didn't hold Violet's hand like he usually did, but chose to walk alone.
Ivy turned back and smiled meaningfully at Violet, and then she jogged to walk alongside Stanley,
"Stanley, wait for me!"
