Chapter 274 Brady Was Such a Smart Man, How Could She Possibly Be His Match?
The doorbell kept ringing in the apartment, and Violet's brain immediately struggled as if reacting to something. "Mr. Hall, someone is knocking on the door."
"It's okay." Brady didn't want to bother opening the door at this late hour unless it was a prearranged appointment, so he held onto Violet without wanting to let go,
Violet's face turned red with embarrassment as the bell continued to ring. She urged Brady to open the door, "Mr. Hall, it might be your guest. I'll go back first."
Brady didn't want Violet to leave, so he let go of her and said, "I'll go check. You sit here and don't move."
Violet wanted to leave!
And what if a girl comes in? Like that drunk female model last time. Violet really didn't want to stay here. She was afraid of the trouble those women looking for Brady might cause.
So, as Brady went to the door to check, Violet also stood up to prepare to leave when he opened the door.
However, after Brady looked through the peephole at the person outside, he decided not to open the door.
He returned to Violet and said, "It's not anyone important. No need to open the door."
Violet said, "Mr. Hall, it's getting late. I'll leave first."
Brady slowly approached, his tall and imposing figure looming closer. His aura was strong and enveloping, and his voice was gentle. "Wait a moment."
Violet really didn't want to wait or stay longer. "My aunt, Hellen, will be worried about me."
Upon hearing this, Brady seemed to find it amusing, smiled lightly, and said, "How old are you that you're still worried about what she thinks?"
"No matter how old I am, my family will always worry about me." Violet pursed her lips and glanced towards the door.
By now, the doorbell had stopped ringing.
The sound of high heels slowly approached in the corridor, and Violet felt it might really be one of Brady's women.
Thinking of this, the slight flutter Violet had towards Brady just now vanished in an instant. It was better to avoid Brady. Otherwise, once these women found her and her child and started causing trouble for her, she was going to have a headache.
"Mr. Hall, I really have to go."
"It's only 7:30 now, and you're in a hurry to leave. Why are you avoiding me?" Brady stood in front of Violet, lifted her chin with his slender fingers, and said in a slightly deep tone, "Ms. Devereux, tell me, am I so unbearable to you?"
This was a rhetorical question.
Violet really wanted to tell Brady, "She does indeed find him unbearable."
However, Violet was about to resign soon and didn't want to stir up any trouble, so she said, "No, I just don't want any rumors with you, causing unnecessary trouble."
Violet's words were tactful, but Brady's eyes deepened as he listened, and he said with a slight tug at his thin lips, "Is that so? Are you afraid of trouble?"
Violet nodded.
"You haven't even tried being with me. How can you conclude that it will cause trouble for you?" Brady smiled, and his rough fingertips subconsciously gently pinched Violet's soft chin. "You can give it a try with me to see if it will be like that."
Violet pursed her lips and continued to refuse. "I don't want to try."
"But I want to try. I want to know what trouble it will cause if I date you." Brady leaned in close to Violet, his handsome face instantly approaching her delicate face. "After all, you're the first woman to say that dating me would cause trouble, so I'm more interested now."
Violet regretted saying those words again.
Brady was such a smart man. How could she possibly be his match?
