Chapter 25
"I had a friend who needed a nanny to take care of her grandkid... and the pay was really good. I
thought, well, it's still a job, so I gave it a try. Today's my third day, and it's not bad. I can make ten
grand a month!"
"Your dad's gone, and he didn't leave you much. I can't hold you back." Albina added.
Tears streamed down Violette's face.
"Your old friend, they're pretty rich, huh?" Her voice was already a bit hoarse, and it became even more
so as she cried, "Being a nanny for an old friend... must be really hard, right?"
"Not really! As long as I can make money, I'm happy. Pride does not bring you money, right? Besides,
rich people aren't always rich, and poor people aren't always poor. Maybe I'm not as rich as my friend
now, but who knows, maybe my daughter will make big money in the future?"
Albina handed her a few tissues to wipe her tears.
"Mom... you don't have to work. I can work part-time... I can start working next year..." Violette sobbed.
"How can you work now that you're pregnant? Violette, if you really want to have this baby, this isn't the
way. Albina frowned, puzzled, "Why doesn't Elijah want the baby? That's his flesh and blood!"
"He's got someone he likes."
"Really? Then why doesn't he marry her?" Albina's face turned pale, her heart aching for her daughter.
"I don't know."
"It's alright, don't be scared. If necessary, we'll hide and have the baby without him knowing."
Albina hugged her and gently patted her shoulder.
...
Three days later.
Violette got a call from Kaleb
, who asked her to meet up.
After a few seconds of thought, she agreed.
He must be looking for her because of the baby.
At the café.
Violette stared at Kaleb's face for several moments.
His face was covered with several bandaids, and even with them, large areas of bruising were visible.
"Stop staring. These were all from Elijah. If you hadn't said the baby was mine, Elijah wouldn't have hit This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
me." Kaleb grumbled, resigned, "Consider this my compensation for not having the courage to elope
with you back then!"
"Kaleb, the problem isn't that you didn't elope with me. Are you planning to hide your affair with Sabrina
forever if I don't talk about it now?" Violette took a sip of water.
"When did you find out?" Kaleb looked at her in surprise, "No wonder you never replied to my
messages or answered my calls."
Violette took a deep breath and asked, "Do you know where Sabrina is now? Her uncle stole my dad's
company's money, and I won't let it go."
"She's traveling the world... There's no use in finding her for what her uncle did."
"Isn't she using my dad's company's money to travel right now?"
"That's her dad too. Violette, I know you're angry, but please calm down. Leave your dad's mess
alone." Kaleb reached out to hold her hand.
But she quickly dodged it.
"Violette, I'm sorry. It's not what you think between me and Sabrina. I've never loved Sabrina. I was with
her because she seduced me. Men sometimes can't control their desires... But the woman I've always
loved in my heart is you."
Violette felt sick.
"You may not know, but I have more injuries, and I don't blame you." Kaleb pleaded, "I stayed in the
hospital for a few days, and I haven't been discharged yet. I'm in such a hurry to find you because I
want to ask, whose child is it in your belly?"
"The baby's already gone. What's the point in asking now?" Sabrina replied.
"Oh... Violette, let's work together!" Kaleb revealed his true intention, "You still have a chance to get
close to Elijah. Find a way to kill him, and once he's dead, no one can bully us anymore."
