"I'm so scared... I've been living well all this time but I'm slowly forgetting about you; you who doesn't even appear before me when I open my eyes," Violet said, expressing her heart, "we didn't talk properly that night, but why did you never come back to me, Victor? I thought you were leaving me on purpose, but your not coming back made me think you were dead that night. I was so scared, Victor... why were you so indifferent to my feelings?""I'm sorry, Violet; that night I also thought that I wouldn't come back. When I was determined to go see you immediately, my legs felt even weaker and I started having trouble breathing. I was afraid, I was also very afraid that I wouldn't make it to you. For the first time, I was afraid to die. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back to you." Violet listened to that, crying even harder and hugging Victor so she could calm down for a moment. "That night Draven came to save me; and I tried to recover as quickly as possible so I could see you
Violet stood with her legs on the verge of collapse, trembling with fear.She was about to deliver the change after the buyer had made a transaction for food from her farm that afternoon. Since she knew the buyer very well and had been going back and forth from her house to the buyer's location many times, Violet didn't think she needed a ride or someone to accompany her.But it was only when she was about to leave that she regretted turning down all the offers from people at the ranch to accompany her.On her way home, Violet was followed by four men whom she had seen since she was at her customer's place. Actually, one of the four men had offered to take Violet home with them, since she had been having trouble with her bicycle chain. But Violet refused; they were too suspicious for her to trust.Violet's suspicions were confirmed when, on her way home, the four men followed her. Even when Violet pedaled faster, she was still followed.Panicked, Violet pedaled her bike faster an
At the sound of that name, the men holding Violet could be heard muttering, as if surprised by what they were hearing.They certainly knew who Victor Leighton was, one of the executives of the most dangerous New Orleans-based mafia group called Little Boy.But even so, the grip on Violet's hand did not loosen. In fact, it grew stronger until the girl let out a painful moan."Don't be so strong, she'll get hurt." The man named Victor said."Why, did you come to save her? Are you her lover?""No," Victor answered quietly. Violet just looked at him hopefully, hoping that Victor wasn't one of the new problems that had come her way today.Seeing how calm Victor was as these people questioned him made Violet want to hope, but the fact that Victor had come alone undeniably made Violet a little anxious. How was she going to fight off seven people who looked stronger than her?The man with the beard, who continued to hold Violet, laughed. "Then what did you come for? Were you also offer
"Alright ...." Violet's attention diverted, she turned to Alexa and Jessie who were intently observing her appearance from top to bottom. Of course in their minds there was still a sense of surprise and disbelief, this girl who looked innocent and innocent in front of them was the woman of the man who was the target of many women out there."Please tell us, what's your name?" asked Alexa."Violet Flurry Violet." Violet introduced herself simply. If asked her name, she would answer politely. However, that seemed to be a problem for Alexa and Jessie who immediately squinted, disturbed."You won't be able to survive here if you introduce yourself like that, Miss Violet.""Am I not polite enough?""It's polite, but it lacks gestures." Jessie's words made Violet frown, not understanding. "Did you see our look? It's not just a look, but we're bringing a code of conduct that matches the elegance of this dress.""First, we'll show you where your room is. Follow us." Alexa and Jessie stepped o
"Because he's handsome and wealthy, many women want to have him. Including that woman I mentioned earlier. She seemed to be trying so hard to get Victor that she insisted on staying at the Melrose House.""Do you want to know why that woman left on her own, Miss Violet?" Jessie asked, coming closer to Violet. Without needing an answer, Violet's silence was an answer. She wanted to know."The reason is because Victor never saw her again after that night." Jessie and Alexa again laughed mockingly."Never saw him?""Victor never saw her and visited here, Victor never contacted her. In short, she was ignored."Violet scowled faintly. Of course, for her, what Victor was doing was not the right thing. But for some reason, the two women in front of her seemed to take it in stride and even found it amusing. It was as if they had guessed it would happen."So, Miss Violet...," Alexa paused, also approaching Violet and Jessie, "we'd like to know why you wanted to bring Victor to this place. We w
"Do you realize what you just asked, Violet?"Violet gave a troubled look, worried that her words would make Emma angry and feel offended. "I'm sorry, Miss. I shouldn't have asked that," she said frantically, hoping Emma wouldn't misunderstand her. But Violet's worries were put to rest when Emma suddenly burst into laughter."Hahaha...!"The sound of laughter made Violet make a confused face. It wasn't just an expression, she was genuinely confused at the moment.Emma, the mastermind of the laughter, said, "Of course I'm very happy, Violet!" It took a few seconds for Emma to completely stop laughing. Violet didn't know where the funny part was that the girl not far from her was laughing like this.After Emma finished laughing, she paused for a moment. Emma took a breath and then exhaled quickly. "Isn't it nice to have a lot of money?" she asked Violet, who was silent and didn't understand the meaning of her question."Would it be okay to take a walk and listen to my story?" Emma asked
Violet was shocked into silence. She didn't know why. She didn't know why, but it wasn't unusual."He gave me money, lots of it. Even though I knew who this Draven Missegrand was who had just spent the night with me, I expected him tomorrow night, and the next. Every time we met, it always ended with a hot night. For some reason, imagining that I got a dollar bill after meeting him made me very happy. That's why I hope she always comes to see me."Emma looked up at Violet, finding that the expression her interlocutor was making made Emma laugh awkwardly. "You find me disgusting, don't you?" asked Emma and suddenly Violet was taken aback. She had no idea that she was making a face that made Emma uncomfortable and misunderstood.But, she hadn't given a rebuttal yet and Emma had already spoken. "I didn't think twice and give my life to Draven, even though I know what he's like. He gets bored very quickly, which is why I try not to bore him. It's like an employee trying hard not to get fi
Violet and Emma continue their walk on a sunny day.A sunny day brings happiness to everyone. The streets of the French Quarter were very busy this morning. Many people were passing through the same streets that Violet and Emma were passing through. For some reason, seeing the busy sea of people was a source of amusement for Violet and Emma."Sun, you have to see this!" Violet wasn't done enjoying one thing, and Emma excitedly invited Violet to see another. While Violet is a newcomer to New Orlean, Emma, who calls the port city her birthplace, is more excited to explore the city's entertainment centers.Emma takes Violet to visit a street famous for its rows of shops that sell many things. Of course, since the French Quarter is the entertainment heart of New Orleans, it's a place that many foreign and domestic tourists visit.You could say it was a street market. Along the way, Violet saw many people selling goods of all kinds and names. Unlike Violet's hometown, which had to go t
