Chapter 600
Inside the black Rolls-Royce, Joey hung up a call and turned to Elijah. “Boss, Mike just called to invite me to join them for dinner at the hotel,” Joey said hesitantly, “Would you like to come?” Elijah’s expression darkened. “They didn’t invite me. Why should | go?”
Feeling embarrassed, Joey added, “I heard Violette tried to call you this morning, but couldn’t reach you. Maybe you should meet and talk things over? Despite her dazzling smile on her live stream tonight, Mike said she’s actually quite upset. | suspect she dressed up like this just to get under your skin.”
Elijah’s dark eyes brimmed with icy menace. “How do you know she didn’t dress like this for Kylee’s benefit?” Sensing his simmering rage, Joey fell silent. At the hotel.
Kylee was demonstrating how to operate the latest drone model from the Dennis Group. Upon popular demand, he then started singing.
The live stream instantly turned into an online concert.
Violette descended from the stage. Mike offered her a light jacket, but she declined.
“It's summer. I’m not cold.”
Mike replied, “The air conditioning is a bit chilly though.”
“I'm not cold.” Violette placed her palm on his hand, letting him feel her temperature. “Pregnant women tend to feel warm.”
“Alright! A few journalists asked me earlier. They’re quite interested in the father of your child.” Mike massaged his temples. “The number of viewers tonight exceeded my expectations... By tomorrow, practically everyone online will know about your pregnancy.”
Violette had considered this outcome, but she wasn't afraid.
“Being pregnant is nothing to be ashamed of. It won't matter if people know it.”
“But you're not married!” Mike pointed out the crux. “People are particularly curious about the father of your child.” Violette shrugged. “That’s their concern, not mine. | won't let others influence my life.”Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
“Oh... So you're not afraid that people will find out that Elijah is the father?” Mike uncapped a bottle of mineral water, handing it to her.
“| can’t just hide away because I’m afraid people will find out, can 1?” Violette took the water and took a sip. “Besides, | wouldn’t be doing this tonight if he didn’t provoke me.”
Mike’s gaze dropped a bit, glancing at her chest. “This is the first time I’ve seen you in such a sexy dress. | never realized you have such a great figure... but | suspect someone will go crazy tonight. Hahaha!”
Violette knew who he was referring to, but she didn’t care about that person’s feelings.
“Are you tired? If you are, | can take you home.” Mike suggested. “I called Joey earlier. He said he and his boss are back, so | invited him to join us for dinner. Who knows? He might bring his boss along.”
Violette raised an eyebrow. “Who told you to invite Joey to dinner?”
Mike scratched his head. “You and Elijah had a fight, but it doesn’t mean | can’t date!”
“Fine! I’m not tired. Gonna leave with Kylee later.” Violette handed the water bottle back to him. “I’m going to listen to Kylee sing.” Amoment later, as Kylee finished his song, he invited Violette on stage to sing a duet.
All eyes instantly focused on Violette.
