Chapter 573
"Joey, did Elijah cancel his regular credit card?" Violette looked up at Joey. Joey was taken aback. "He didn't ask me to do that, so I'm not sure. Can't you transfer money to his account anymore?" Violette nodded.
"I'll ask him when | go to work tomorrow," Joey said, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Maybe he doesn’t want you sending him money anymore."Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Interesting. Does he want Violette to owe him for a lifetime?" Odette turned her piercing gaze to Joey. "What exactly is going on between him and Melinda? Ramsey said that he brought Melinda to the dinner party last time."
Joey felt a layer of sweat forming on his forehead. "They're just colleagues. He's known Melinda for years, so sometimes he brings her along for meals."
"You're fooling no one. Ramsey said that Melinda served him food, and he ate it. Is that how colleagues act in your company?" Joey: "Odette, there's no need to bring this up in front of Violette and the kids." "Are you embarrassed?" Odette was always blunt, unwilling to beat around the bush.
"What does this have to do with embarrassment? It was Violette who wanted to break up. Now that they have, my boss can be with anyone he wants."
"So you admit it. He's now with Melinda." Odette scoffed coldly.
"Why are you angry with me? Wasn't it Violette who told him to return to his old life?" Joey was getting agitated. "If she is jealous now, all | can say is that she brought this on herself."
Odette was grinding her teeth in fury.
Mike barked, "Joey! You're way out of line! This is her house. Get your act together!"
Joey abruptly stood from his chair,m "I apologize. I'll leave."
After Joey left, the atmosphere in the dining room turned awkward.
"Violette, I'm sorry." Odette spoke guiltily. "It's my big mouth."
Mike: "| shouldn't have invited him for dinner.”
Violette finished her meal, put down her cutlery, "Joey is right. You all are. It's my fault." She rose and left the dining room. She had always wanted to find a method to balance everything. But there was no such method.
In her view, love meant both parties growing together, not one dragging the other down. Even if she hadn't broken up with Elijah, she would have paid him back. Moreover, she didn't regret her decision. The pressure on her was immense. Apart from the debt, there was also the child in her belly.
Back in her room, she closed the door. After calming do , she dialed

Ignoring his mockery, she retorted, "Do you want me to pay you back in cash?!" "Contact Melinda," his voice returned to its usual calm. "From now on, if you want to pay me back, deal with her directly." She pressed her lips together, her mind a blank.
"Violette, are you happy now?" His icy voice cut through the silence. "Melinda is ob lent ae ania hk Angry. With her, | only need to enjoy her devotion. | don't have to guess her mood like a fool." Please read the original content at .
Listening to his boastful words, Violette felt a wave of nausea hit her. "Ugh-"
On the other end, Elijah's voice stopped abruptly, his face turning pale.
