Chapter 748 She Couldn't Keep This Up
That morning, they spent two hours making love before finally getting out of bed to freshen up and leave the hotel.
When they stepped out, Violet's legs were shaky.
She knew she couldn't keep this up, worried it might affect the baby.
But she was pretty satisfied with the morning's service.
Brady was even more impressive than she had imagined, making her feel like she was floating on a cloud.
She felt so good she could hardly get up.
They walked out, clinging to each other like conjoined twins, sweet and affectionate.
Darian, who had been waiting outside the hotel, watched Violet, who was glowing with happiness, and his eyes darkened.
He slipped a hand into his pocket, pulled out a cigarette, placed it between his lips, lit it, and took a deep drag before exhaling.
As the white smoke swirled around him, Darian's expression grew even more brooding.
The young girl Eddy had brought back to the hotel last night had received the money she had been hoping for.
She immediately contacted the boss who had sold her and paid him back, gaining her freedom.
The boss had no idea what was going on. He knew Brady had taken the girl last night and assumed he had taken a liking to her.
The boss thought he had done a good job of currying favor.
After all, men are all the same, right? Even if they're married and doting on their wives, who wouldn't be tempted by a young girl?
So, when the girl wanted to leave, he didn't stop her.
This sleazy boss then spread the word to other bosses.
Soon, the rumor that Brady was keeping a young girl began to circulate among the elite.
It even reached Brady's grandmother.
Matilda, who was very protective of Violet, immediately went to confront Brady.
When had he started keeping a young girl?
Brady had been busy with other matters and hadn't heard the gossip.
When Matilda confronted him, he realized it was the work of those old men from the other night.
He quickly explained to Matilda, who was skeptical. Brady then had Eddy take Matilda to meet the girl.
Once she saw the girl, Matilda believed him.
However, the rumor had already spread, and people were likely to believe it.
Violet would also be upset.
Matilda decided to bring the girl back to the Hall Mansion to find a way to quash the rumors.
Brady didn't mind.
He hadn't done anything wrong, and Violet knew what had happened that night.
So, he left it to Matilda to handle and continued focusing on his work.
Time flew by, and the day finally arrived for JK to meet the genius designer, Darian.
To avoid any awkwardness, Violet decided not to go and let Max represent JK in the meeting with Darian.
When Max arrived, Darian specifically requested to see Violet.
Max, unsure why Darian wanted to see Violet, agreed to win him over.
He immediately called Violet, asking her to come to the restaurant.
Violet knew she couldn't avoid it and reluctantly agreed.
After all, if they managed to recruit him, they would be seeing each other frequently at JK.
So, she quickly got ready and headed to the restaurant to meet Darian.
When she arrived at the restaurant, she saw Darian and Max already seated.
Taking a deep breath, she walked over slowly.
For the meeting, she had chosen a fitted professional dress instead of a loose one, though her rounded belly made the dress look a bit bulky.
However, her slender figure made it hard to tell she was pregnant from behind.
Violet approached them and greeted Darian with poise, "Mr. Voss, it's a pleasure to finally meet you."
Darian looked up at her, feigning a natural demeanor, and extended his hand for a handshake, "Ms. Devereux, long time no see."
He said, "Long time no see!"
Violet was taken aback, feeling a bit uneasy.
Did he remember the past?
"It seems Ms. Devereux doesn't remember me?" Darian still held her hand, and Violet tried to pull it back but couldn't.
This puzzled Max. "Mr. Voss, do you know our Ms. Devereux?"
Darian nodded and suddenly released her hand, turning to Max, "Yes, I once pursued your Mrs. Hall."
