Odette handed Violette a T-shirt. "What happened to you? Did you get into a fight or something? Your Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
buttons were ripped off," Odette asked, puzzled.
Violette put on the T-shirt and replied, "Yeah, you caught me. I got into a fight."
"Did you lose the fight? You look so disheveled. I feel sorry for you. Why don't you hire a bodyguard?
Elijah has hired a lot of bodyguards, and they're all top-notch experts," Odette said, pouring her a glass
of water. "As a billionaire, it's necessary for you to have a bodyguard."
Violette shrugged, "So I don't need to hire a bodyguard."
"Why not?" Odette asked, then immediately understood, "Is Elijah nuts? Why is he treating you like
this?"
Violette drank the water and put down the glass. "Odette, thank you for lending me your clothes. I need
to go back to the office now."
Mike called her and asked how the meeting went. She needed to report back.
"I'll take you," Odette said, worried about Violette.
"No need. I'm fine. It's not the first time we've fought," Violette said casually.
"I know you fight often, but he hit you today!" Odette said, suddenly remembering something. She
walked to the cabinet and took out a bottle of pepper spray, "Put this in your bag. Use it if he bullies you
again."

The Dennis Group
Mike was surprised to see Violette change her clothes. "Did the meeting go wrong?" he asked.
"Yeah," Violette replied.
"Never mind, if it failed, it failed. It's okay," Mike comforted her. "We can hire more employees for the
sales department and sell our products ourselves."
"I was thinking the same thing. We just started, so we shouldn't expect to succeed overnight. We
should take it step by step," Violette nodded.
Mike was never interested in business or money. He partnered with Violette to repay her for saving his
life. Whatever she said, he would listen and follow.
"Mike, we may lose the money we earned overseas in the future... it's possible that we may not make
any profit," Violette spoke honestly after a moment of contemplation.
"Why worry about that? If we run out of money, I'll go make more! You just need to be pretty," Mike
hooked her shoulder and laughed, "Violette, when we started our business overseas, it wasn't smooth
sailing either!"
Violette's bad mood was slightly comforted, "Maybe it's because nobody knows me overseas, so I don't
have any psychological burden whether I succeed or fail."
"Don't live under other people's scrutiny. Just focus on doing your own thing," Mike said.
Violette's mental shackles were released, and she smiled, "Mike, my life coach, you seemed extra nice
today."
"Haha! Let me take you shopping! Your clothes are not pretty!" Mike complained, "It's your birthday this
weekend, you have to dress up!"
Without asking for her opinion, Mike took her out of the company.
In the afternoon, the Bourne Group.
Elijah arrived at the company with Joey following him.
"Joey, it's Violette's birthday this weekend. I'm not going," he said coldly, seeming to be the same as
usual, but also different.
Joey knew why he changed his mind at the last minute.
He had a big fight with Violette at lunchtime, and his mood would probably not recover for a while.
He was a person who valued his dignity very much, and t
o strip and throw money like that in public was really ridiculous.
Although the people in the restaurant were kicked out at the time, there were probably a lot of people
outside the restaurant watching the show.
"Then I'll go with Brandon," Joey said, "If neither of us goes, it doesn't seem right."
Elijah was absent-minded and glanced at the black bag on the table, "What's this?"
Joey coughed lightly and didn't know how to answer.
