Chapter 29
It did not matter whether or not anything happened; that was not what Senior Yancey was interested in.
To him, Violet being able to stay the night at his beloved grandson’s home was already an impressive
feat.
All these years, Jack had never had a woman by his side.
Lily stood at the doors of the castlelike manor in her plain garb. Her eyes kept shifting over to Violet.
She could see how fond Senior Yeager was of Violet during the week she had stayed here. Lily’s ears
had pri cked up to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Her default facial expression had always been deadpan. However, that was before she had picked up
on a crucial bit of information: Mr. Yancey had brought this young girl home and let her stay the night.
Upon hearing this, there had been a slight change in Lily’s expression.
Violet had messed up Mr. Yancey’s wedding and turned the Yanceys into the laughing stock of the city.
Nevertheless, not only had they let her off for it, they seemed to be quite partial to her.
She was Theo Yeager’s daughter, and Theo Yeager was the man who had schemed against the
Yanceys!
Lily could not wrap her brain around it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWould the solemnization of their marriage be resumed? After all, Senior Yancey was clearly very fond
of her. She had just stayed here for a week, and now she was back again.
Hopefully, Violet would not end up becoming a threat to the madam… Lily could already feel how
difficult this young girl could be.
Lily had a bad feeling that the peace they had had for so many years would be shattered soon.
Senior Yancey had said that he would not return to Calormen until his grandson got married. He would
be residing here for the long term. This meant that violet would also be making occasional visits here…
As she thought about it, her face frowned in anxiousness. She was rather worried for the madam.
It was good that she was coming home pronto.
Very soon, a car appeared on the causeway. It drew near to them.
Hearing the sound of a vehicle, Violet turned to look. She recognized the car, but it was not Jack’s.
“Michael is here,” Senior Yancey put his arms down in a relaxed manner. His face was full of smiles.
“Can you guess what he’s coming here for, Vi?”
Violet turned to him. “I d
don’t know.”
The unruffled old man chuckled. “He’s here to fetch you.”
“To fetch me?” Violet was bemused. “And where would we be going?” She turned around once more to
see the car come to a stop. One of the car doors opened.
“Good day, sir.” Michael stood next to Violet and bowed towards Senior Yancey as a sign of respect.
Senior Yancey looked at him with a kind smile. “What are you doing here?”
As expected, Michael glanced at the girl standing beside him. “I’m here to bring Mrs. Yancey home
under the president’s orders.”
“What?” Violet jumped. “What do you mean by ‘Mrs. Yancey’?!” She was not happy at all about being
addressed like this!
“You,” Although Michael was as imperturbable as usual, the way he spoke to her had softened up
considerably. “According to Mr. Yancey, he said yes at the wedding so this marriage is finished
business as far as he’s concerned. You’ve walked into his wedding, onto his red carpet, in a wedding
dress.”
Upon hearing that, Senior Yancey was delighted. Needless to say, he would be happy to let Violet go!
“Move along now, Vi, hurry. I won’t keep you.” Senior Yancey shooed her away with a grin.
Michael had a look of accomplishment on his face.
Violet had been rendered speechless. Where did all this come from?
She looked at Senior Yancey, then at Michael, before turning back to Senior Yancey. “Grandpa, he will
get rid of me. How is it possible that he’ll let me live there?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“How so?” Michael rebutted calmly. “Didn’t you sleep there last night? Mr. Yancey has sent me to pick
you up specifically because he’s worried about your injuries. I won’t keep this a secret from you: Dr.
Gordon has told Mr. Yancey about the

severity of your injuries. That’s why he’s so worried.”

“.” Violet could not believe it. What on earth was this?
However, Senior Yancey believed him. He believed him without a doubt!
“Chop chop, Vi! Let’s not waste any more time.” If Senior Yancey could have his way, he would glue the
two of them together every day. “Michael is a busy man, so follow him to the car quickly.”
“Grandpa…” Violet frowned.
“You can come back for visits when you miss me.” To her surprise, Senior Yancey started to push her.
“Go, go, go, go. If Jack bullies you, give me a call. I’ll always back you up!”
