As expected, the birthday party ended early on a sour note.
Quite a few prominent and influential members of the business world had been invited to attend Violet’s
birthday party, and after witnessing the whole incident, they began drawing their own conclusions.
While leaving, Leanna glanced at Violet’s pale-faced father and quietly asked the man beside her, “Do
you know what’s going on?”
Aidan smirked. “I don’t, but someone else does.”
“Who?” Leanna quizzed in puzzlement.
Once the couple walked out of the venue, William came up to them. “President Pearson. Miss
McKinney.”
Leanna nodded in acknowledgment. “Mr. Morris.”
“Everything that has just happened with the Kramers may very well affect future business cooperation,
yet you’re leaving just like that, Mr. Morris?” Aidan piped up coolly.
William chuckled and deflected the question with ease. “Well, it’s a family matter. I won’t be of any help,
even if I did stick around.”
“Is that so?”
William didn’t respond to Aidan. Instead, he turned to Leanna. “Do you have anything else planned for
tonight, Miss McKinney?”
Leanna was startled as she didn’t know why he posed this question to her. She shook her head. “No, I
don’t.”
“In that case, why don’t I treat you and President Pearson to a drink?”
Leanna glanced at Aidan before giving her answer. Aidan raised his eyebrows slightly.
It was a sign that he wanted her to say yes.
“Okay then,” Leanna replied to William.
Although she had only encountered William a couple of times and barely knew him, he and Aidan had
collaborated on business in the past, so perhaps there were things they wanted to discuss but couldn’t
do so outright, and thus, needed to go through her.
There was an open-air bar on the rooftop of the hotel.
After finding a quiet place to sit, Leanna said, “Please excuse me while I head to the washroom. You
guys can go ahead and talk.”
However, as soon as she stood up, Aidan grabbed her hand. “Don’t go just yet. Aren’t you curious to
know about what happened tonight?”
Thus, while William placed his order with the waiter, Leanna sat down and murmured to Aidan, “Isn’t
there something that you two wanted to discuss with each other?”
“Who told you that he and I had something to talk about?” Aidan replied.
“Then…”
Just then, William asked, “What would you like to drink, Miss McKinney?”
As expected, the birthdoy porty ended eorly on o sour note.

Aidon smirked. “I don’t, but someone else does.”
“Who?” Leonno quizzed in puzzlement.
Once the couple wolked out of the venue, Williom come up to them. “President Peorson. Miss

Leonno nodded in ocknowledgment. “Mr. Morris.”
“Everything thot hos just hoppened with the Kromers moy very well offect future business cooperotion,

“Who told you thot he ond I hod something to tolk obout?” Aidon replied.
“Then…”
Just then, Williom osked, “Whot would you like to drink, Miss McKinney?”
Leanna looked through the menu. “Two glasses of grape juice, please. Less sugar, thanks.”
The waiter took her order and left.
Aidan tapped on the table with his long, slender fingers. His lips curved into a faint smile.
William eyed Aidan for a moment before turning his attention to Leanna. “I heard that you were curious
about what happened with the Kramers tonight, Miss McKinney.”
Leanna pursed her lips and nodded.
She would’ve been able to deduce what happened if Aidan had been the one behind everything
tonight, but Aidan said that he only came to enjoy the show.
This made the incident with the Kramers even more strange.
After a pause, Leanna asked, “Judging by what you just said, Mr. Morris, it sounds to me that you know
what happened.”
“I wouldn’t say I know exactly what happened,” William refuted. “However, I stumbled across a rumor a
while back. I didn’t pay any attention to it at the time as I thought it wasn’t true, but after today, it seems
that I was wrong.”
…
Meanwhile, back at the birthday party venue.
Once all the guests left, Violet flew into a rage and smashed everything she could get her hands on in
the hotel.
Still, that did nothing to assuage her anger.
She had to get to the bottom of this and find out what was going on.
After leaving the hall, Violet stopped one of the hotel staff and asked, “Have you seen my father?”
“N-No…” the hotel staff stammered.
Violet shoved the person aside. “How useless!”
The hotel staff backed away in fury but didn’t dare to retort.
Violet searched all over the hotel before she spotted her father’s assistant standing outside a private
lounge.
Violet wanted to go in, but the assistant stopped her. “Miss Kramer, Chairman Kramer has given his
orders to not allow anyone in.”
“Does that include me?” Violet frowned in displeasure.
“Well…”
Violet pushed him out of her way. “Get lost, you useless fool!”
She grabbed the door handle and flung the door open.
The door crashed against the wall with a loud bang.
Owen turned around and frowned. “What’s with you now, Violet?”
Violet ignored him and glared at the other woman in the room. “What’s this crazy woman doing here?
Get her out of here!”
The woman stared at Violet with teary eyes and a hurt expression. “Violet, I really am your mother…”
“Shut up! You shut your mouth! Shut up!”
Violet charged toward the woman in a frenzy, but Owen subdued her.
“Calm down and get a hold of yourself, Violet,” Owen chided in a grim voice.
“How am I supposed to calm down? Dad, are you just going to let this crazy woman slander me like
that?”
“Stop calling her crazy.” Owen glanced at the woman on the couch and sighed. “She truly is your birth
mother.”
Violet’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What did you say?”
Over two decades ago, the doctors confirmed that Violet’s mother couldn’t bear a child of her own, but
she desperately wanted to raise a child, so Owen secretly adopted a few. However, no matter what
they did, the couple couldn’t form a parental bond with any of those children.
In the end, Owen had no choice but to send the children away again.
Soon after that, Violet’s mother came up with an idea. She was going to find another woman for her
husband.
Once that woman got pregnant, Violet’s mother would announce that she was pregnant, and when the
baby was born, the baby would become her child. She would treat the baby well as if the baby was
truly hers.
At first, Owen was firmly against the idea, but his wife’s continued attempts to persuade him eventually
wore him down. Furthermore, she found him a young, beautiful, gentle, and caring woman. A
temporary lapse of judgment led to Owen going along with the plan.
The woman became pregnant in less than a month, and the baby was Violet.
Once the baby was born, Owen’s wife was going to stick to the initial agreement, which was to give that
woman a large sum of money and tell her to never appear in front of them again.
However, after spending the past ten months with that woman, Owen began to develop feelings for her
and found all sorts of excuses to keep her around for a little longer.
Even though he made no mention of it, his wife noticed the change and sent that woman away while he
was on a business trip.
From then on, Owen never saw that woman again.
That woman had weighed on his mind ever since then.
After his wife’s death, he tried time and time again to look for that woman, but he never found any trace
of her.
He thought that she had died.
Violet snorted after hearing about all of this. “Do you think telling me this is enough to make me
believe? Well, I’ll tell you right now that it’s not going to happen! Never!”
