Chapter 1182

For Violet

The office door closed softly, and the director wiped his forehead, relieved. He dialed Violet’s number without hesitation. “Hi, Ms. Belcourt, Lucy’s proposal is complete. I just went through it, and everything checks out. She’s more impressive than I anticipated. There’s just one thing…”

“What’s that?” Violet’s voice on the other end was calm and collected.

“She mentioned wanting to surprise your fiancé,” he explained cautiously.

“A surprise?” Violet’s voice turned languid yet frosty. “Alright, I’ll mention it to Lenn. I wonder how she’ll feel when she learns this proposal was tailored for me. This is getting interesting.”

Lucy had a 2 p.m. appointment with this ‘female client’s’ fiancé. It was her first client meeting, so she arrived ten minutes early at the café, rocking her trusty power suit.

This wasn’t just any suit-it was a splurge, two months’ worth of salary when she went to Europe with Cherise for her burn treatments.
