"Hey, you! You..." Sarah's face showed an awkward expression, and her brain was buzzing.
"Actually, I saw the guy who did the surgery on Makayla at Mercy Hospital that day too." Violette looked
at the fear and nervousness on her face, speaking with a stern tone, "If you want to threaten me, you
better think carefully if you can handle the consequences of being abandoned!"
At that moment, the juice and snacks were served. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Violette leisurely started eating her afternoon tea.
"Violette, I underestimated you!" In just a few short minutes, Sarah was exposed, "We're even now!
Let's pretend nothing happened! I won't tell Elijah your secret, and I hope you can keep your mouth
shut too!"
"Weren't you pretty confident just now?" Violette mocked her, "You get a little leverage, and you show
your true colors. How can you do research with this kind of personality? In another ten years, you still
won't be able to cure Makayla."
"You don't have to attack me! Not unless your medical skills surpass mine." Sarah glared at her, "Dr.
Mitchel's most despised people are those like you who abandon medicine for business!"
Violette took a sip of juice; the sour and sweet taste was very refreshing.
"Aren't you curious about who did the surgery on Makayla?" Violette raised her eyes and looked at her
indifferently, "Do you think lies will never be exposed?"
"Do you think I didn't investigate? I just haven't found out yet... You know the truth, but you won't tell
me. You see me and Elijah together, and you're dying of jealousy..."
"Sarah, don't disgust me. If I wanted to break you two up, I'd just call Elijah, and he'd dump you."
"Don't threaten me!" Sarah shouted.
"Doesn't it feel terrible to be threatened?" Violette took a small bite of cake and said slowly, "The guy
who did the surgery on Makayla was a middle-aged man with short hair and a thin build..."
Sarah's eyes widened, "Violette, why are you helping me?!"
"Because I don't want to see you anymore." Violette spoke coldly, "Sarah, don't come looking for me
again. I'm busy and don't have time to argue with you."
Sarah: "I understand! Thank you for telling me this important clue!"

A week before Violette's birthday, Brandon pushed open the door to Elijah's office.
"Elijah, did you receive Violette's birthday invitation?"
"No." Elijah's eyes were slightly downcast, and there was a hint of sadness in them, "You?"
"Me neither. If she doesn't even invite you, there's no way she'd invite me." Brandon guessed, "I
suspect she might not be celebrating her birthday."
"That's possible."
Violette had always been low-profile.
"But you've got the gift ready; you have to give it to her." Brandon said, "Why don't I call the Dennis
Group and ask?"
Elijah: "You can ask if you want, no need to report back to me."
Ten minutes later, Brandon came to report to Elijah.
"Elijah! Violette has gone too far!" Brandon exclaimed, "She's planning a grand birthday party! She
booked the largest banquet hall in Shangri-La Hotel for her celebration! But she didn't invite us!"
Elijah's heart felt like it was stabbed with a knife. Maybe to Violette, he, her ex-husband, was already a
stranger.
"She doesn't invite me; she must have her reasons." Elijah answered calmly, "Have you finished your
work? Or should I give you more tasks?"
Brandon immediately turned around and left.
The office became quiet, but Elijah's heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
Half an hour later, he dialed the number for Shangri-La Hotel—
