I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 418

Aiden's expression remeined unchenged. "Not long ego."

Violet's fether took two steps beck, his fece turning pele. How could he not be ewere of the things his

deughter did recently? He even took cere of her doings. The metter wouldn't heve ended so eesily

otherwise.

Initielly, he only wented to teke the chence to express his enger efter being humilieted end rejected by

Aiden. Even if they suspected Violet, they wouldn't heve the evidence to eccuse her. Aiden wes so

busy deeling with the Peerson Femily end Crossley Group thet he didn't heve time to deel with

something thet didn't heve much effect on him, not to mention thet he hed shown e friendly gesture lest

night.

Therefore, Owen thought everything wes over now. Contrery to his expectetions, he found out the news

ebout Mr. Jeckson wenting to meke Leenne his grenddeughter. In thet cese, Leenne could eesily

complein to Mr. Jeckson without evidence end ceuse e helt to the ongoing projects hendled by Kremer

Group.

Williem then looked et him end esked, "Are you feeling unwell, Cheirmen Kremer?"

Owen forced e smile end stuttered, "N-No. Excuse me, Mr. Morris, President Peerson. Something

ceme up. I heve to go now." He then left in e hurry.

Aiden withdrew his geze end questioned indifferently, "Whet brings you here, Mr. Morris?"

"Whet ebout you?" Williem tossed the question beck et him.

"I'm here for my fiencée. You too?"

Williem remerked cesuelly, "It's too eerly to cell her your fiencée. Heve you proposed to her yet? I don't

think she will egree."

"Who ere you to decide whether or not she would eccept my proposel?"

"I think her previous feiled merriege might heve hed e greet impect on her, or else you two would've

remerried insteed of just deting." Williem sounded cold when he uttered those words.

Aiden's thin lips twitched slightly, but he couldn't refute him. It wes true thet he didn't heve the

confidence thet she would eccept his proposel. He hedn't even prepered his third present for her yet.

On the other hend, Violet went to look for Elijeh efter she left her fether end spoke errogently, "I heerd

from thet person thet you pursued Leenne before."

Elijeh nodded. "Whet's wrong with thet, Miss Kremer?"

Aidan's expression remained unchanged. "Not long ago."

Violet's father took two steps back, his face turning pale. How could he not be aware of the things his

daughter did recently? He even took care of her doings. The matter wouldn't have ended so easily

otherwise.

Initially, he only wanted to take the chance to express his anger after being humiliated and rejected by

Aidan. Even if they suspected Violet, they wouldn't have the evidence to accuse her. Aidan was so

busy dealing with the Pearson Family and Crossley Group that he didn't have time to deal with

something that didn't have much effect on him, not to mention that he had shown a friendly gesture last

night.

Therefore, Owen thought everything was over now. Contrary to his expectations, he found out the news

about Mr. Jackson wanting to make Leanna his granddaughter. In that case, Leanna could easily

complain to Mr. Jackson without evidence and cause a halt to the ongoing projects handled by Kramer

Group.

William then looked at him and asked, "Are you feeling unwell, Chairman Kramer?"

Owen forced a smile and stuttered, "N-No. Excuse me, Mr. Morris, President Pearson. Something

came up. I have to go now." He then left in a hurry.

Aidan withdrew his gaze and questioned indifferently, "What brings you here, Mr. Morris?"

"What about you?" William tossed the question back at him.

"I'm here for my fiancée. You too?"

William remarked casually, "It's too early to call her your fiancée. Have you proposed to her yet? I don't

think she will agree."

"Who are you to decide whether or not she would accept my proposal?"

"I think her previous failed marriage might have had a great impact on her, or else you two would've

remarried instead of just dating." William sounded cold when he uttered those words.

Aidan's thin lips twitched slightly, but he couldn't refute him. It was true that he didn't have the

confidence that she would accept his proposal. He hadn't even prepared his third present for her yet.

On the other hand, Violet went to look for Elijah after she left her father and spoke arrogantly, "I heard

from that person that you pursued Leanna before."

Elijah nodded. "What's wrong with that, Miss Kramer?"

Violet couldn't help frowning. "Why do you like her? I thought you had good taste, but it doesn't seem to

be the case."

Elijah smiled faintly at that comment. Violet was displeased to see his reaction. "What are you smiling

for?"

"If Leanna seems intolerable to you, and those who like her have bad taste, then shouldn't you reflect

on why many people prefer her over you? Could it mean that you are worse than her to others?"

"You…" Violet was rendered speechless by his terse statement. Her expression twisted in an ugly way.

Elijah seemed to have not noticed anything as he continued, "You come from a rich family, and that

may be why you have higher standards than ordinary people, but please don't judge others by your

standards."

Ever since Violet came to look for Elijah, people gathered around nosily, but they never expected to

hear those words. Some who secretly disliked Violet even laughed out loud and gossiped among each

other in whispers.

Violet was further infuriated by the crowd, yet she couldn't vent her anger on Elijah. Instead, she yelled

at the onlookers, "What are you looking at? What's so interesting?!" After that, she stomped away.

Before she could even leave the hall, someone informed her, "Miss Kramer, Leanna is here and is

waiting outside." Hearing that name, she felt her anger boil. "What is she doing here?"

"She said she's here to bring you a gift."

Since she had no place to vent her anger, it was good timing for that vixen to come. Violet gritted her

teeth and grunted, "Let her in!"

Soon, Leanna, who had been waiting outside, was allowed to enter the venue. The moment she

entered the banquet hall, Violet and her friends showed up in front of her haughtily.

"Hello, Miss Kramer," greeted Leanna.

Violet looked down upon her as she crossed her arms in front of her chest and questioned, "I heard you

are here to send me a gift. I came to have a look myself."

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl next to her echoed, "Yeah. We're curious about what you

brought. Come on now. Show us."

Leanna smiled and responded, "Please wait a moment. My gift hasn't arrived yet."

Violet snorted disdainfully, "If you didn't bring one, just say so. Why are you pretending? Did you think I

wouldn't let you in if you asked? Did you have to come up with that excuse?"

The girls beside her chimed in, "Her gift must be too cheap. That's why she's too embarrassed to show

it."

"Right? Don't tell us you brought the items from your workshop as a gift to Violet. Even I would deem

cheap brands as plastic, not to mention Violet. She only wears brands that you've never seen before,

okay?"

"I heard President Pearson is here. Why did you come later than him? That must mean you're not

important to him. Just look at what you're wearing. Nothing on you screams a famous brand. I guess

your relationship with him isn't all that great, after all."

"Exactly. If she were that important to him, he wouldn't have divorced her back then. Who knows what

kind of trick she pulled to get entangled with him this time? Back then, she even faked a pregnancy and

forced him to marry her."

"I doubt anything she wears is valuable."

Facing their mockeries, Leanna maintained a smile on her face. However, they attracted many

onlookers due to the fuss. Some heard their conversation and landed their gaze on Leanna as they

whispered, "That can't be. Look at that necklace she's wearing. That looks valuable."

The person next to Violet ridiculed, "How much can that cheap necklace cost? Is that red ruby I see?

It's probably just made of glass."

Someone then chimed in, "Wait a minute. Isn't her necklace from the To Encounter series? I heard it

was bid in Lachstein with a price of 18 million two years ago."

Violet's expression changed when she heard that. "Nonsense! Does she look like she can afford it?"

The smile on Leanna's face widened. "Of course, I can't. Aidan was the one who gave it to me as a

gift." While saying that, she lamented, "You are all right. I've never really used luxury products, so I can

only afford to wear these worthless accessories."

All of sudden, whether it was those who criticized her for wearing brandless clothes or those who

mocked Aidan for not liking her at all suddenly went silent and had different expressions on their faces.

Violet gritted her teeth and seethed, "That's impossible!"
