Chapter 197
Violet was shocked. “How is that possible? When did it happen? Does Ellie not care about the
recording I have at all?”
Megan cried in despair. Violet had never seen her so sad.
She looked at Violet, tears streaming down her checks like crazy. “She doesn’t need to be worried at
all! They’re already together. If I tell Skyler that I like him, do you think I can let them break up? In the
end, I’ll be just embarrassing myself. Ellie must have predicted this! That’s why she did
it!”
Megan hugged Violet and suddenly cried out, “Violet, what should I do? I’ve liked him for six years. Six
years! How can I let go? In the past, when he didn’t have a girlfriend, I could still comfort myself that I
had a chance. Now, I can’t even comfort myself. Is it because I’m too cowardly? Yeah, it must be. I
don’t even dare to confess my love for him. That’s why others. beat me to it. I’m too st upid, right?”
This piece of news caught Megan off guard, making her almost cry her heart out. Violet was a little
flustered. “Meggy, don’t cry. Tell me. What happened? How did you know they were together?”
Megan tried her best to stop crying before explaining the whole story to
Violet.
Violet roughly pieced together a fact.
Last night, Skyler also went to the Alumni Gathering, but he was at the buffet set up in the conference
hall on the top floor.
He disappeared for three years after graduation, and his roommates all tried their best to get him
drinking.
After Skyler got drunk, Ellie called him.
Skyler’s roommates thought that Ellie was his girlfriend and asked her to pick him up.
Everything that happened after that came naturally. They checked in at

the Sunny May Hotel prepared for the alumni. Probably because Ellie had taken advantage of the
situation, she slept with him.
Skyler was a responsible man. When he woke up in the morning and saw the red marks on the
bedsheets, he proposed that they be together.
Megan had just arrived at the office. Before many people came to the company, she saw Skyler and
Ellie kissing in the design department.
Megan was devastated.
After that, Ellie became even more arrogant. She provoked Megan with her new identity as Skyler’s
girlfriend. She even arrogantly and disdainfully told Megan that she thought Skyler was so easy to get!
“He’s too naive,” Ellie thought. “It was just a one-night stand, but he thought he should take
responsibility for me. It’s so easy! As for Megan. she has chased Skyler for so long but doesn’t even
dare to tell him. How pitiful!”
With her victorious attitude, she had crushed Megan’s years of feelings for Skyler with just the title of
“Skyler’s girlfriend”.
Violet hugged Megan and comforted her, but she could not say anything practical.
When it came to falling out of love, one could only rely on oneself to get
over it.
However, Violet was also considering whether to expose Ellie and let Skyler know what kind of person
she really was, or to take advantage of this matter to persuade Megan to give up on Skyler.
To be honest, Violet was more inclined to choose the latter.
After all, although Skyler was capable, responsible, and righteous, he did. not seem to be suitable for
Megan. He didn’t know how to tell if a woman was kind. His ability to identify vicious women was too
poor, and Violet didn’t want Megan to pick up a man that Ellie despised.
It had been six years, and Megan had yet to take a step forward. This was

not necessarily Megan’s own problem. Skyler’s attitude toward her was also constantly affecting her
feelings and decisions toward Skyler.
Although relationships were like drinking water, which meant that only the one who drank it could tell
whether it was warm or cold, Violet was completely not optimistic about Megan’s feelings for Skyler.
Violet was about to say something when her phone rang. The call was. from Gabriel. She was
hesitating if she should answer the call.
Megan let go and said in a sobbing voice, “Answer the phone!”
Violet pursed her lips and answered the call.
“Hey, Vivi, you’re back to Summerwood City, right?”
Violet nodded. “Yes, I’m back!”
Gabriel raised his eyebrows. “Why do you sound a little down? Did something happen?”
Violet shook her head. “No, what’s the matter?”
Gabriel got back to the topic. “Well, congratulations on winning the Azure Ocean Heart Jewelry Design
Competition. And I want to remind you that you promised me that you would treat me to a meal after
the competition. You didn’t forget it, right?”
Violet glanced at Megan and pursed her lips. “No, I didn’t. It’s just that I might not have time recently!”
Gabriel paused for a moment and sounded a little disappointed. “I see. We can talk about eating
another day. By the way, I opened a bar. It’ll be open tonight. I was planning to invite you to have a
drink!”
Violet refused without any hesitation. “Congratulations on the opening of your bar, but I really don’t
have time. I won’t come over tonight!”
As soon as Violet finished speaking, Megan suddenly looked at her with tears on her face. “Go. I’ll go
with you. I want to drink!”
Violet was stunned for a moment before she changed her mind. “Well, I’ll

come over tonight. My friend is in a bad mood, and I want to drink with
her!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGabriel was obviously in a better mood. He nodded. “Alright, I’ll wait for you. I’ll send you the address
later!”
Violet nodded and hung up. She subconsciously looked at Megan.
Megan had already stopped crying. “Violet, I’m fine. Don’t worry about
me!”
But how could Violet believe that she was fine? She said, “How about this? Go wash your face. I’ll bring
you out to have fun tonight. If you really can’t. do it today, take a day off!”
Megan shook her head gloomily. “There’s no need. It’s not a big deal… It won’t kill me anyway!”
Violet wanted to say something but hesitated. She did not know what to
say.
Violet accompanied Megan to the bathroom and watched Megan wash her hands. In the end, Violet
could not help but say to her, “Meggy, don’t think. too much. If he’s yours, no one can sna tch him
away. If he’s not yours, even if you tie him to your side, he will try his best to break free!”
Megan was still in low spirits. “Okay, I see!”
After sending Megan back to the Information Technology Department, Violet returned to the design
department.
After she returned to the design department, she saw the address sent by Gabriel. She clicked on it
and saw that someone had sent a request on WhatsApp to friend her.
The other party’s profile was black, and his username was a full stop. “What a simple name,” she
murmured inwardly.
Violet was frustrated and rejected the request without thinking.
Unexpectedly, just as she rejected it, the other party sent another request.

Violet could not help but frown. She ruthlessly rejected the other party’s request to friend her again.
This time, the other party seemed to have finally given up.
Violet picked up the design draft and was about to draw the design.
However, the third request came.
This time, the other party wrote an additional note, saying, “I am Patrick.”
