Chapter 45 The Deeper Her Family's Fondness
However, Lady Hall's call came too suddenly, and it surprised Violet. Why was Lady Hall so enthusiastic? Just for a hat design, she even wanted to treat her to lunch?
Violet felt that something wasn't quite right. But she didn't dare to think too much and regained her composure to reply politely, "Madam, I will design your hat carefully until you are satisfied. As for... lunch... our company has an employee cafeteria."
"I'm already downstairs at the Hall family building, come down and have lunch with me later"
The old lady truly took a liking to Violet. Since they had dinner together, she had been thinking of this young girl, always wanting to introduce her to her grandson.
Although the Hall family was of high status, they didn't have the outdated rules of a grand family. They only valued compatibility in backgrounds.
As long as her grandson Brady liked her, it was enough. Of course, this was just the old lady's wishful thinking.
Brady's marriage involved too many interests and family reputation. Even if the old lady didn't mind the girl's background, Brady's parents and his friends wouldn't agree.
However, the old lady also had her own ulterior motives. Her grandson hadn't shown any interest in girls, and she was very worried about his sexual preferences.
She will not talk about marriage, such a long-term thing. They could at least teach him how to date? If it works out, then great, but if it doesn't, they can break up and Violet wouldn't mistreat him.
Therefore, with this selfish intention, the old lady wanted to take the initiative and find a girlfriend for her grandson to date first. This way, everyone could be rest assured about his sexual orientation and there wouldn't be any criticism.
"What? Lady Hall, are you really... downstairs at our company?"
Violet was truly amazed by the old lady's bold actions. She had already made it to the Hall family building.
Should she go downstairs and take a look? Violet was a bit conflicted. She didn't want to get too close to the old lady and make the man suspect that she was intentionally trying to get close to her! She didn't want to be blamed for anything.
"Yes, I am downstairs now. Do you have time? Can we talk about the design?"
The old lady's affectionate voice came through again. Violet confirmed that the she was indeed downstairs. It wasn't an illusion.
Violet hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Then I will come down right away."
Let them suspect if they want. If he really comes to question her, she can have the old lady testify. It wasn't her who sought out the old lady, but the old lady who sought her out.
When the old lady heard her agreeing to come down, she immediately said happily, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Three minutes later, Violet hurriedly went downstairs with a sample of her design sketches.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, she walked out immediately.
Lady Hall, wearing an elegant cheongsam, was sitting in the reception area of the Hall company foyer, waiting for her.
Violet noticed her and unconsciously slowed her pace before speeding up to approach her.
"Madam, have you been waiting long?"
Violet sat down on the chair opposite her and placed the sample sketches on the coffee table in front of them.
"No," the old lady smiled kindly at her.
Today, Violet was only wearing a simple white shirt with a black skirt, but she looked very youthful and beautiful.
The old lady found it pleasing to the eyes. Violet nodded, reached out, and opened the sample sketches on the coffee table.
She said, "Madam, I've already made a sketch of the hat today. I don't know if you'll like it."
Lady Hall took the sample sketches and glanced at them briefly, already liking them a lot. The hat was a retro beret with a creatively embroidered small rose on one side of the brim.
The design was neither flashy nor mundane. The old lady really liked it. Putting down the sample in her hands, she said, "I'm very satisfied. Miss Devereux, we will have a meal later, and I specifically invited Mr. Hall."
Violet's eyes widened in an instant!!!
