Violet cough. She shrugged the thought in her head, reminding herself to stop thinking like a teenager when she was an adult. Apart from that, it is only a waste of time thinking about that insignificant man in her life.

”You are wrong, grandma. Im only thinking about my meeting with a Real Estate company. They keep bothering me, and I am thinking of a way to turn them down. ” Her lame alibi.

Violet glanced at her grandma after saying that. However, the older woman was only beaming at her, telling her she could not lie to her.

On the one hand, Lucy smiled because she saw the blush on Violets cheeks. Seeing that, she stopped teasing her granddaughter and started another topic.

Lucy may have had Alzheimers now shes aged, but her life journey molded her into a knowledgeable person. Moreover, she was once a teenager. So naturally, she knew what it felt like to have a secret crush on someone, even if she would not admit that to herself.

”Look at you. I think you were not eating properly. ” Lucy berated her granddaughter.

”Im good, Grandma. You have nothing to worry about. ”

”Child, I would only stop worrying about you until you have a husband. ”

”Grandma? ” Violet pretended she was in shock. She spoke with a straight face. ”Husbands are a pain in the head, grandma. ”

”Child, the time your mom refuses having a husband. She met him later that very same day. ”

Violet had rendered speechless. She knew she would not win against the older woman even if she kept reasoning with her.

”Alright, granny. I will marry one if I meet him later today. ”

That was a joke. Violet glanced at her grandma. However, the older lady broadened her smile. Violet felt defeated, so she gave up on her grandmas wittiness.

If Lucy isn her beloved grandma, shed be upset about being nosy in her love life. But Violet knew the older lady only cared for her.

Violet resumed eating and chatting with her grandma for over an hour before proceeding to her work. She enjoys her second cup of coffee while reading some reports when her mobile phone buzzes.

”Answer call. ”

After the gadget recognized her voice command, Lettys half-body hologram appeared above the phone screen.

”Cousin, the representative from HL Real Estate, arrives and wishes to speak with you asap. It said they have an appointment with you today. ”

Violet looked at her cousins hologram with furrowed brows. ”I approve their appointment, but it is supposed to be this afternoon. ”

”Well, they requested to meet you now. ”

”The nerve? And they were the ones demanding from me like this? ”

Letty shrugged a shoulder. She rolled her eyes, showing she was trying to find a better answer to appease her cousins irritation.

”Well, actually, the company brought their employees to have a Family Day today. ”

”Did they book us? Why didn I know anything? ”

”Well… They never have, but…. ” Letty didn finish her sentence when Violet started fretting at the other side of the virtual call.

”What? Why did you allow it? We don accept Sundays. ”

”Oh, well… Ah! The kitchen is swamped. Gotta go! ”

”Hey! ” Violet still wanted to talk with Letty, but shes gone now. ”What was that? ”

Violet got up from her swivel chair and walked toward the window. She was shocked to see that the place was crowded.

”No way! What was this companys boss thinking? ”

The White House Garden accepts any event, such as Family Day activity. However, they must contact them first to negotiate an agreement to discuss the event. There are packages to choose from with different rates so her crew can prepare the venue, including the dishes to serve them.

The White House restaurant in the highland is an exclusive place for the VIPs. Usually, the events are held in the foothills or by the lake.

Now that they suddenly arrived without informing them ahead, her staff would suffer, affecting the excellent hospitality they had been performing until now.

She doesn mind having many guests visiting the White House Garden as long as they get a reservation online for safety agreement purposes. There is a possibility of many problems because the place is crowded.

”Flora watched all of our security cameras and reported to me if suspicious people were around. ”

[Copy, Miss Violet.]

”Make sure no one gets near the residential area. Sent a security alert to my bodyguards. ”

In the past, before she had Flora, many incidents occurred. Some people tried to break into the residential area. These people often pretended to be guests. The worst that happened was she almost got kidnapped twice inside her property.

”Flora, call Anthony and Mike to escort me. ”

[It is done, Miss Violet.]

”Alright. Thank You. ” Violet grabbed a blazer and wore it before she got out of the house.

”Good morning, Miss Shang. ” On the front porch, Anthony and Mike are already waiting.

”Good morning. Whats the status? ”

”Ive already scattered the men, Miss. I placed more numbers around the residential area. ”

Violet was not concerned about her safety. It was her grandma she was worried most about.

Although the area has advanced robot patrollers, she would not allow any accidents or problems with her guests.

”Good. Lets go. ”

Followed by her two bodyguards, Violet marched toward the White House restaurant. Letty sent her a message that the person who wanted to see her was waiting in the Tower Room.

She raised a brow when she read the message. VVIPs only have access to the Tower Room in the White House.

Then, does she know this person? She gave out VVIP access to a few families only, and they were their close family friends.

Although she hasn met the HL Real Estate boss yet, she is sure that he is not among the VIP members of the White House.

”Anthony, Mike… Could you guys beat up this HL boss for me? ”

Anthony and Mike remained silent, following behind her. Violet stopped and looked at them when they didn reply to her.

She frowned when her bodyguards lowered their gazes to the pavement and didn meet her gaze. She felt strange that they seemed afraid to comment this time.

Usually, they would dig a pit for these people and boast to her. They would say,

”Don worry, Miss Violet. We will beat them until they turn into a pulp. ”

”We will torture them to confess who is their mastermind, Miss. ”

She felt like a mafia boss when her bodyguards acted like this. However, what is happening now? It seemed like their tails were hiding between their legs. And their silence made her baffled.

Who is this person who even my bodyguard is afraid to offend?

Violet began having an awful premonition. She hurled a long breath before knocking twice on the door to announce her arrival.

”We will stay here, Miss. ”

Instead of going inside the room to ensure her safety. Violet was dumbfounded when her bodyguards acted strangely.

Are they wishing to get fired? Why did they act like it was an emperor who was waiting inside?

Violet was eaten up by extreme curiosity. She stepped into the room with her head high. Then,

”YOU! ”

”Hello, love! ”
