Chapter 33 What to Do When Breastfeeding is Cut Off and the Baby Gets Sick
"Mr. Hall, Mr. White is still in JK," Linda reported, her eyes cautiously glancing towards the man sitting behind the desk, squinting as if lost in thought.
Handsome and composed, the man looked up at Linda and said, "He came to see me and intentionally wandered off to JK to play the hero. Does he have nothing better to do?"
Linda dared not reply because she wasn't sure what her boss meant by that statement.
So, obediently, she stood there silently, like a little rabbit.
Until Brady lightly pressed his temple and spoke again, "If you don't want to see him, just decline."
As soon as the words fell, a knock came from the door of the CEO's office.
Linda instantly perked up and said, "Mr. Hall... it might be Mr. White coming up."
"Well... should we see him?" Brady twirled the pen in his hand, his gaze deep. "No."
"Alright." Linda received the instruction and hurriedly went out to relay the message.
But as soon as she left, a random thought popped into Brady's mind - the image of Violet holding him and kissing him in the presidential suite of the hotel that night.
Her lips were rosy and her eyes hazy.
Like a little fairy.
Brady's throat unconsciously tightened.
This woman was really occupying more and more of his thoughts, and Brady didn't think it was a good thing.
He couldn't possibly be attracted to a woman who plotted against him and climbed into his bed.
So, he made an effort to push away the image of kissing Violet from his mind and refocus on work.
Outside the door, Linda saw the slim man standing not far from the entrance.
It really was Mr. White.
Linda immediately said politely, "Mr. White, I apologize, but Mr. Hall is currently in a meeting and cannot receive visitors."
"Not convenient?" Aiden's eyebrows furrowed instantly, his expression showing disbelief as he looked at Linda. "Could it be that Mr. Hall doesn't want to see me?"
"No, it's true. Mr. Hall is really having a video conference inside," Linda explained sincerely.
Aiden pondered for a moment. This was Brady's territory, not his.
He couldn't assert himself here.
So with a smirk on his lips, he said, "Well, I'll come visit another day then."
"Mr. White, take care," Linda politely sent him off.
Aiden glanced at Linda with a hint of contempt in his eyes, then turned and strode towards the elevator.
Brady... he had to bring him down from his position as the leader of the four major families.

After the incident of Laura's false accusation passed, Violet had a rare peaceful afternoon.
She earnestly completed her work.
Until it was almost time to leave, Max gave her another last-minute task.
Perhaps feeling guilty for dragging her to the gambling party last night, he gave her an important client as compensation.
But... although this task was quite good, Violet felt a sense of unease.
Honestly, she didn't know what to say about this. On one hand, she always comes home late, and the babies can't have breast milk. They can only have frozen milk, and she feels guilty about it. On the other hand, she wants to work hard and earn money to seek revenge on the Devereux family.
Therefore, the only way to resolve her worries about working hard is to make up her mind to stop breastfeeding. But she is reluctant to do so. This is the most bothersome issue for her. Every time she goes back and sees the two adorable babies, she cannot bear it in her heart. Breast milk has a great effect on boosting the babies' immunity.
What will she do if the babies get sick once she stops breastfeeding? Or if they don't adapt to formula milk? Violet gets a headache just thinking about it. However, she won't refuse. Instead, she gathers her spirit and accepts the first client arranged for her by Max - an elderly lady from a wealthy family in the city.
Her last name is Calvin.
Mr. Green didn't specify the details; he just gave her an address.
Violet held the first ever order she received since joining the company, which was to meet an important client alone. This news quickly spread among the other female designers in the company, sparking jealousy and gossip.
Laura, in particular, felt humiliated by this incident today. Although no one said anything to her directly, it was obvious that everyone thought she was incompetent. Even a newbie like Violet could surpass her.
So, after Violet left the office with enthusiasm, carrying the address to meet the client, the group of female designers immediately gathered and started whispering.
"Violet really has a way with men. She has Mr. White backing her up, and now Mr. Green protecting her from behind."
"Heh, what way with men? She's just selling herself. If we could seduce men like her, we could also get all these opportunities. It's just that we don't have her lack of shame." Laura crossed her arms and gritted her teeth as she spoke.
"Yeah, she always acts so obedient and well-behaved, but once she's at work...she occasionally runs to Mr. Green's office. Who knows what she's doing over there?"
"She's definitely seducing him."
"Enough with your speculations. Mr. Green isn't that easily tempted." Laura despised hearing discussions about Violet doing something with Max in his office. It made her feel like she had eaten fly poop. She liked Max. She didn't want the man she liked to be tainted by other women. So, she self-deceived herself by defending Max.
"Even if Mr. Green is a gentleman, you can see that he gave Violet this design project! Maybe he was a little swayed by her beauty."
"Heh, what a despicable woman." Laura couldn't stand hearing these things. It made her angrily itch.
"Let it go, let it go... She's seductive and young. What man can resist her?"
"I will definitely get her out of here." Laura snorted. Having Violet here was like a thorn in her side.
