Veild Bride : Love From An Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 106
At this time, in a luxurious meeting room of the Yancey Group, Jack was seated in his commanding position, expounding on the
executives about the successful project signed with Jared and outlining the forthcoming implementation strategy, with materials
projected on the screen behind him.
The atmosphere was solemn when the phone screen on his right-hand side lit up. Jack cast a glance and then handed it to
Michael.
Michael took the phone and swiftly exited the meeting room. He answered it in the corridor and greeted, “Ms. Yancey.”
“Where’s Jack?” Charlotte asked.
“He’s having a meeting. Where are you? I heard you’re out again,” Michael replied.
Charlotte whispered, “I’m in trouble. Help me. Then she gave a brief about the situation to Michael.
“Okay, we’ll be right there,” stated Michael.
Then he hung up the phone.
Michael returned to the conference room and handed the phone to Jack.
“What’s the matter?” Jack asked in a low voice.
“Something went wrong at the exhibition. A dress in the window is damaged and needs you to deal with it.” Michael informed
Jack without mentioning either the thief or Violet.
Jack asked, “Is she fine?”
“She’s fine,” answered Michael.
Hearing this, Jack was relieved and proceeded with the meeting.
Michael knew the importance of this meeting, but he still harbored concerns about Violet, thinking, “She’s just a young lady but
fought with a thief? Has she got hurt?”
As far as Michael knew, Violet was average in martial arts.

During the meeting, Michael was occasionally distracted.
Charlotte put her phone into her bag, came to Violet, and sat down, looking at her from time to time.
Charlotte didn’t even leave a phone number yesterday, and neither did she expect to see Violet again today. So she felt it was
destined.
But Charlotte felt that Violet was so weird today and that she seemed to be in a bad mood.
“What are you gonna do now? Are you keeping on wasting our time? I’m telling you, the money must be paid!” the exhibition
director snorted and continued, “It’s a rational request for you to pay. Isn’t your time valuable? Or do you think you can get rid of
it?”
Violet sat on the sofa and said nothing. Her opinion manifested itself.
The thief murmured, “I don’t have money. How am I able to pay for it? After all, my time is not valuable. Give me food and I can
live here for the rest of my life!”
“You...” The thief’s words even left the exhibition director at a loss for words.
Charlotte stared at him and reprimanded, “Shame on you! You’re just a gluttonous and lazy guy!” She had already expressed all
necessary sentiments, leaving little room for further words.
Half an hour later.
A white Maserati was driven out of the company and headed in the direction of the exhibition, with Michael at the wheel and Jack
occupying the passenger seat.
Jack evacuated to send an email before covering his computer, and he asked, “What’s going on? Now I’m free to listen. How
could the dress on the exhibition get damaged?”
“Ms. Yancey ran into a thief who stole her bag. Fortunately, she caught on, and Ms. Violet Yeager had helped her subdue the
thief. But in the process of fighting, the thief smashed one of the windows and damaged a dress designed by Helen, which
amounted to a value of 25, 600 dollars. The issue now is that Ms. Violet Yeager is not willing to pay for it at all, nor does she
allow Ms. Yancey to do that. She insists on the thief take full responsibility. But the thief has no money for compensation. So...
it’s a deadlock,” answered Michael.

“What? Violet’s also there?” Jack frowned and continued, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

Michael drove the car and posed the question for which he already had the answer, “What if I told you carlier?”
Jack fell into silence.
Michael knew that if he had mentioned Violet’s presence, Jack would have probably interrupted the meeting and left early.
In Jack’s heart, Violet held a higher level of importance compared to Charlotte.
Michael looked ahead, with a trace of frustration flashing in his calm eyes.
When Jack and Michael emerged in front of the organizers, they got shocked to hear what was going on!
“The young ladies are your friends?” asked one man who was reeling from the shock.
“Yes,” Jack affirmed shortly.
“This way, please. It’s not a big deal,” replied the man as he guided their way.
In Rheinsville City, Jack commanded utmost respect and was the recipient of numerous flattery.
Footsteps came out from the door.
When Jack and Michael appeared at the door, Charlotte rose her feet from the sofa and burst, “Jack!”
Violet raised her eyes and met Jack’s sight, who walked towards her with both hands in his pockets and gaze fixed on her all the
time.
“Mr. Yancey,” saluted the exhibition director with a bow, with his attitude undergoing a significant change. “We were not aware of
your arrival, and we are pleased to have you here.” Having just received notification from his superior regarding the identities of
the two young ladies, the exhibition director was contemplating how best to conclude this scene.

Upon hearing this, the thief cast a fearful glance at Jack and Michael and murmured, “Mr. Yancey?”
Jack looked at Violet, then Charlotte, and at last the exhibition director.
Michael asked in a low voice, “How are you gonna deal with this?”
The exhibition director smiled and answered, “It’s not a big deal, since the two ladies are Mr. Yancey’s friends. You can leave,
and there’s no compensation needed at all. You could just give us a ring. Why bother coming all the way down here?”
No one in Rheinsville City wanted to offend Jack.
“He should pay for it.” Violet looked at the person in charge and gestured toward the thief. “If it weren’t for him, today’s accident
could have been avoided.”
Unexpectedly, the exhibition director smiled and responded, “He doesn’t have to pay for it for the sake of Mr. Yancey.”
Violet didn’t utter anything, but her face darkened.
Jack noticed Violet’s dissatisfaction and chimed in, “He should take full responsibility and pay for it. After all, it’s not the first time
he committed stealing.”
The exhibition director turned embarrassed but hurried to echo, “Okay. I’ll see to that.”
At this moment, Charlotte added, “This kind of gluttonous and lazy person should be locked up! It’s not over yet. Pass him to the
police!”
“Certainly, please don’t worry. We will contact the police.” The manager nodded in respect.
Then Violet and Charlotte departed in the company of Jack and Michael.
As Violet passed the exhibition hall, she veered towards a nearby window, leaving Charlotte slightly taken aback and wondering
if Violet was still in the mood to appreciate it.
Jack and Michael also stopped with their gaze fixed on Violet’s back.
Violet stood in front of the window and took photos with her camera as if nothing unpleasant had happened today.
Jack stepped towards her.

Michael and Charlotte exchanged a smile before directing their gaze toward a nearby location in unison.
“Won’t you go back?” Jack stood beside Violet and spoke in a soft tone, his gentle eyes fixed on her profile. “No,” Violet replied
with a smile, focusing on her photography without sparing Jack a glance.
Jack suddenly didn’t want to leave and asked, “Do you mind if I stay here for the exhibition?”
Violet turned around and responded, “This exhibition is not for me alone. I’m just a tourist. Everyone can watch it.”

So this was... yes?
Jack walked back and instructed Michael with a smile, “Michael, send Charlotte home first.”
“Okay,” replied Michael.
Jack nodded with a gentle smile and proceeded to take a step toward Violet.
Michael looked at them with a tender countenance, yet he experienced a sense of disappointment inside.
