Chapter 735 I Want You to Become a Good Friend
"He's coming back to the States soon. He's now a renowned genius designer, and our company, JK, wants to recruit him," Violet said, a bit awkwardly. "Sounds a bit far-fetched, doesn't it?"
"Yeah, it does. Is he coming back?" The most important thing was that Darian had left for abroad right after high school and had stayed there ever since, losing touch with everyone.
No one could get in contact with him.
"I'm not sure if it's him, which is why I called you. The name and photo of the designer we want to recruit look a lot like Darian," Violet explained.
Emily responded, "Alright, send me the photo and details of him, and I'll help you check."
Violet nodded, "Sure, thanks a lot."
"No problem. But if it is him, what then?" Emily found the situation a bit awkward.
After all, Darian had a huge crush on Violet back then.
Violet had turned him down coldly.
Now she wanted to recruit him as a designer? He probably wouldn't be too thrilled about that.
"What else can I do? He's now a world-class, sought-after designer. Of course, I want him to join JK and help us grow. I own half of JK now, so it's my responsibility to make it thrive," Violet said, feeling a bit of a headache coming on.
She could only hope Darian didn't hold a grudge from back then.
They were just teenagers. He shouldn't be that petty, right?
Emily said, "Alright, I'll help you check. If it is him, then you can figure out what to do next."
"Thanks, Emily."
"Don't mention it. We're good friends," Emily said with a playful smile. "When are you free? Let's grab a meal together."
"I'm free this afternoon."
"Great, let's have lunch. And how about we visit the Deconstructionist Academy afterward?" Emily sounded a bit nervous mentioning the academy.
"Why do you want to go to the Deconstructionist Academy?" Violet was puzzled.
Emily shyly replied, "Professor Lucien Moreau is there."
Violet couldn't see Emily's blushing face over the phone, but she could hear the sweetness in her voice and knew she was interested in someone. "Oh, are you planning to start dating?"
"No, I want to pursue him," Emily said with a smile.
Lucien was like a walking ice machine, very cold and distant.
How could he be so easily pursued?
"Alright, see you this afternoon. I'm curious to see what your crush looks like," Violet said, still not knowing what kind of man Emily liked.
She had only heard Emily occasionally mention a very young professor at the Deconstructionist Academy.
Very handsome, handsome enough to drive her crazy.
Violet had laughed it off, but when she asked for a photo to see just how handsome he was, Emily said she didn't have one.
So she let it go.
This time, she could finally see the rumored young and handsome professor.
"See you this afternoon," Emily confirmed the time and hung up, then started looking for Darian for Violet.
With the hackers she knew, finding someone was a piece of cake.
Soon enough, it was noon.
Emily, with Darian's information in hand, drove her limited-edition sports car to the Hall Group to pick up Violet.
Violet was already waiting in the company lobby.
Seeing Emily's fiery red limited-edition sports car, she was about to get in when Charlotte appeared out of nowhere.
Seeing Violet, Charlotte's eyes narrowed slightly before she quickly put on a confident and gracious smile, walking briskly over.
Her face, initially confident and disdainful, instantly switched to a pitiful 'damsel in distress' look as she said to Violet, "Mrs. Hall, can we talk for a moment?"
"I won't take up much of your time."
Violet had no interest in talking to her.
Although Charlotte had apologized and humbled herself that night in the car, Violet felt uneasy about her being from the Devereux family.
So she responded coolly, "Hello, what do you want to talk about?"
"Mrs. Hall, I know my cousin's family, including my father, has deeply misunderstood and wronged you. They bullied you for so long. Lilian deserved what she got, but I want to say that I'm different from them. I want to be friends with you," Charlotte said gently.
She carefully observed Violet's expression.
Unfortunately, Violet's face showed little reaction.
The Devereux family and Charlotte's cousin had hurt Violet too much for her to be interested in befriending Charlotte.
But that was okay.
Charlotte had already decided to steal Brady, so she would take it step by step.
There was no rush. Some things needed to be done gradually.
Stealing a man was one of them.
