Chapter 351 Whose Woman Is She?
The yacht party was on a famous lake in Elysiuma.
Since it was an upper-class event, the park was reserved for the night, ensuring anyone uninvited wouldn't intrude.
Violet arrived with Brady by car, and a waiter greeted them.
Shortly after they got out, Arthur's car pulled up.
Brady immediately headed towards Arthur to greet him.
The two men walked and chatted, with Violet quietly tagging along, not making a scene or a sound.
After a bit, Brady asked, "Why didn't you bring a date?"
Arthur scoffed. "Didn't have one. Not everyone can snag Violet, the most beautiful woman in Elysiuma!"
Arthur continued, "Ms. Devereux is both beautiful and gentle; you're one lucky guy."
Arthur loved teasing, and Brady was used to it. Violet, not knowing Arthur well, felt a bit embarrassed and pretended not to hear his remark. Instead, she continued to walk silently beside them.
Brady laughed heartily and said, "Violet's a bit shy, don't tease her."
Arthur laughed. "Brady, you're spoiling her too much, aren't you? Can't I even compliment Ms. Devereux?"
"Indeed, a man in love sees only his woman and not his friends," Arthur teased.
Brady didn't engage in the banter and shifted the conversation to business.
Hearing them talk business, Violet silently sighed in relief. She hoped they wouldn't bring her into the conversation, as it made her heart race inexplicably. Despite constantly reminding herself not to fall for it, she couldn't help it every time.
Soon, they reached the yacht. The large yacht was brightly lit on the dark lake, glowing like a beacon.
Several early-arriving wealthy heirs and upper-class individuals had already gathered on the yacht.
Seeing Brady and Arthur come aboard, they immediately came forward to offer toasts. Following behind them, Violet caught the attention of the men, who were momentarily surprised. They recognized Violet.
In their minds, she was once a noble lady of the Devereux family, but later, due to her scandalous affairs with other men, Oliver broke off their engagement and she was expelled from the Devereux family.
They were puzzled by how this expelled noblewoman from the Devereux family could now be accompanying the two most powerful men in Elysiuma.
Whose woman was Violet?
Everyone speculated, first ruling out Brady, as he was known for his cleanliness and wouldn't want to be involved in any messy scandals involving women. Arthur, on the other hand, was a bit more lenient, having had two girlfriends before.
Thus, it seemed most likely that Violet was with Arthur.
With this self-analysis, they began to unabashedly scrutinize Violet. Tonight, Violet was several times more beautiful than the meticulously dressed women on the yacht, no wonder Arthur took a liking to her.
"Violet, wait for me in the front lounge area. I'll come over in a bit," Brady said softly to her, taking advantage of the moment when the wealthy heirs approached him with flattering remarks. He had something he needed to discuss privately with Arthur.
Violet, eager to escape the scrutinizing gazes of the men, nodded in agreement without a word and made her way to the front lounge area to catch her breath.
As soon as Violet walked away, Brady said to Arthur, "Shall we talk privately?"
"I knew you had something on your mind," Arthur said with a smile, taking two glasses of champagne from a waiter's tray, handing one to Brady and keeping one for himself.
From the moment Brady called to tell him he had two children, Arthur knew Brady would want to talk.
