Chapter 140
Rita's eyes widened as she stared at the photo of Kaleb on the computer screen,
"Wow! Dad's so hot!"
Ian turned off the computer, thinking to himself, “What good is being handsome! He's a good-for-
nothing, not good enough for Mom!”
"Ian! When are we going to find Dad? Do you think he'd be happy to know about us?" Rita fantasized
about her dad, as Violette had never bad-mouthed him in front of them.
Whenever Rita asked who their dad was, she would patiently tell her daughter, "You don't have a dad."
Ian lay back down on his bed, staring at the ceiling, and quietly said, "No."
Rita was a bit upset and asked in despair, "Why? We're not asking him for money, just want him to
spend some time with us!"
Ian said, "Go to sleep."
Rita was sulky and said, "I can't sleep. I want Dad."
Ian was disappointed in 'Dad' and thus was down and out of patience, "Shut up."
Finally, Rita quieted down.
She could sense that her brother was upset, so she stretched out her little arm, hugged him, and said
gently, "Sorry, I didn't mean to piss you off. If you don't want to find Dad, then I won't either."
Ian pushed her arm away, his tone much cooler, "Wait for my signal."
Rita happily hugged her brother again, "Okay, I'll do as you say!"
......
Master bedroom.
Violette stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the bustling night view outside, her expression
somewhat blank.
Four years had passed in a blink, and it seemed like everything had changed, yet nothing had.
For instance, she and Elijah hadn't been in contact for four years, but their relationship was still legally
intact.
Elijah hadn't signed the divorce papers.
She dialed her lawyer's number, and soon, the call was answered.
"Mr. Ross, ask him again tomorrow. If he still refuses to sign, please tell him that I'll file for a divorce."
Her own voice sounded, calm and determined.
She couldn't help but remember four years ago when she had left, crying so much that she almost
fainted at the airport.
So silly!
While he wasn't affected at all.
After she had gone abroad, she would secretly search his name online because she missed him.
So she saw news and photos of him attending various events.
His world was still spinning, with or without her.
Seeing him doing so well, she quickly moved on as well.
"Ms. Dennis, are you back in the country?" Mr. Ross asked.
"Yes." Violette said.
"Since you're back, why not go talk to him directly?" Mr. Ross sighed, "He stopped taking my calls a
long time ago. I guess he blacklisted me."
Violette was stunned.
"But if you insist that I intervene, I can contact him with a different number." Mr. Ross continued,
"Honestly, your chances of success would be higher if you did it yourself."
Violette said, "Could you please contact him with a different number then!"
Mr. Ross said, "Sure thing."
After hanging up, Violette scrolled through her contacts.
She had come back not only because this was her hometown, but also for a very important reason.
She wanted to rejuvenate the Dennis Group, which had gone bankrupt under her watch. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Not only did she want to rejuvenate it, but she also wanted to make The Dennis Group more glorious
than ever.
The 500 million dollars that was stolen from her, she would get it back with interest!
She found the former HR director of The Dennis Group in her contacts and dialed the number.
