Chapter 251 Brady Belongs to Me
"Are you sure it was her last night?" Leana's brow furrowed in consternation as she studied the photograph, the woman in the frame bearing an uncanny resemblance to Violet.Her confidante, Loraine, had hinted at Arthur's involvement with Violet. A troubling thought crossed Leana's mind, 'Could Brady really pursue the woman of his own friend?'
The idea seemed implausible to her, yet the likeness was undeniable. She couldn't confront Arthur directly. The thought of him being protective over Violet could only spell trouble. 'Perhaps it's merely a look-alike. But who could that be?'
With a sigh, Leana set the photograph aside, resolving to have someone look into it. If Brady was indeed entangled in this, she would fight for him. After all, she believed Brady was hers and hers alone.As dusk settled, Violet completed her packing. She dialed Hellen's number, informing her about the impending Devereux family gathering.
Hellen, ever the worrier, insisted on accompanying Violet. However, Violet suggested Emily as her companion instead. The presence of Emily by Violet's side brought a sense of relief to Hellen.Max yearned to see Violet, but she had departed before he could reach her. In the lobby, Linda intercepted her."Violet, wait a moment," she requested. Aware that the matter pertained to Brady, Violet couldn't simply dismiss him."What seems to be the issue, Linda?" she inquired, maintaining her politeness. Linda extended a designer bag towards her. "Mr. Hall wanted me to give this to you," she explained."He was quite insistent." Violet was taken aback. Why was he so persistent? Linda added, "It's a token of affection from Mr. Hall."Reluctantly, Violet accepted the gift, not wanting to stir up a commotion. She decided to bear with it for the time being, but once she resigned, she would return everything, including the expensive gifts Brady had given her."Linda, I must be on my way," Violet announced, eager to make her exit. Linda nodded respectfully, "Goodbye, Violet."With that, Violet turned and left to find Emily.
Meanwhile, Lilian, who had just descended the staircase, witnessed Linda handing Violet a luxurious bag. Her eyes blazed with envy. She had always coveted Violet for her beauty, intelligence, and the plethora of suitors she attracted.Lilian's jealousy reached a fever pitch when she discovered that Violet had managed to seduce Brady and engage in an intimate encounter with him. The mere thought of Brady being intimate with Violet sent waves of anger coursing through Lilian.She had schemed against Violet, hoping to tarnish her reputation and keep Brady at bay. However, she hadn't anticipated Violet's audacity to work at Brady's company. And now, Linda had presented Violet with a luxury bag!
Lilian was consumed by jealousy. Yet, a sense of relief washed over her. She thought, 'Soon, she won't be able to seduce anyone. Her grandmother will ask her to marry a disabled man.'
