Zoey was unable to comprehend this. She slowly put down the receiver. If this was the case, then…
would she have to change her attitude towards Miss Yeager?
What if she were to become Mrs. Yancey one day?
As she was mulling over the matter, a car drove into the courtyard.
Zoey stood up and watched the car stop. The doors opened; Michael and Violet got out of the car
together before walking towards her.
“Master Michael,” Zoey greeted him.
“I’ve brought Miss Yeager back,” Michael said. “Please make a list of her needs and pass it to Mr.
Yancey, he’ll get someone to deal with it. You’ll be in charge of her meals and other basic needs. You
may call me or Mr. Yancey if any problems arise.”
Zoey glanced at Violet and nodded. “Understood.”
Michael turned around and left.
Zoey shifted her gaze to Violet again. “Good day, Miss Yeager,” she greeted.
“We meet again, Zoey,” Violet responded amiably. She walked towards the coffee table. “Are you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtarranging these flowers into the vases?”
“Yes.” Zoey was still in shock. What had happened in the past two hours? Why was even Michael
behaving like this?
Violet settled on a couch and raised her head to look at Zoey, who felt rather awkward. “Come and sit,
Zoey.”
Zoey sat down.
Violet looked at the bunch of fresh flowers and three vases on the coffee table. She conveniently
picked up a stem of rose and started to prune it. “Let me help you.”
“Do you know how?” asked Zoey. She meant her question genuinely.
Violet laughed. “I’m not from some rich family’s daughter, and neither have I grown up living a
celebrity’s life. I suppose flower arrangement is just simple,” She spoke as she helped Zoey. “I’ll stay
here for a few days to recuperate. I don’t need much. I’ll eat whatever you’ll have so there’s no need to
get anything special for me. It’s very easy to take care of me, I’m a freeloader after all. A freeloader
shouldn’t be making demands.”
She was very easygoing. Zoey was very happy and warmed up to her considerably.
She noticed the bruises on her face and the cut on her forehead. Remembering how Violet had
sustained those injuries, Zoey felt rather sympathetic for her.
“Miss Yeager…” She started to speak but paused.
Violet looked up. “What’s up?” she asked with a beam.
Zoey felt apologetic. “I’m sorry.”
“Why are you apologizing?” Violet smiled.
Zoey thought that her attitude towards Violet last night had been a little cold. However, Violet had not
borne a grudge against her for that at all. She had been through tough times and was not a pettish
person.
“You don’t have to say it if you don’t want to. Let me help you with the flowers!” She focused on the
task at hand seriously.
She was extremely adept at flower arrangement, from pruning to color combination.
Zoey was dumbfounded. “Are you a professional?”
“I’m not that good,” Violet looked up with a gentle smile. “It’s just a hobby.”
Michael’s car headed towards the Yancey Group. The chauffeur was in front while he sat in the back.
During their journey, Michael took out his phone and dialed Jack’s number. “Mr. Yancey. Miss Yeager
has been brought back to your place.”
“Did my grandfather stop you?”
“No. There was a faint smirk playing on Michael’s lips. “Your grandfather shooed her away.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJack was surprised. His interest was immediately piqued. “What did you do? Tell me.”

“I told him that I was obeying Mr. Yancey’s orders by fetching Mrs. Yancey home.”
“What?!” Jack looked daggers at him. His voice turned into a low growl, “Are you crazy? Throwing me
under the bus like that?”
“I have good intentions. Also, I was rushing for time,” Michael protested. “Otherwise your grandfather
would have never let her go. He’d definitely be worried that you would bully her.”
Jack was not happy. “How has she become Mrs. Yancey? How on earth did you come up with that?”
“I told them that you’ve set the seal on the marriage by saying ‘I do’ at the wedding.” Michael did not
seem concerned at all. That was not surprising, considering how he was merely a spectator to this
entertaining show. “Your grandfather was ecstatic when he heard this, so of course, he willingly let her
leave. He even pushed her into the car himself!”
“I can’t believe you!” Jack was speechless. “Fine. Fine, fine, fine. Come back. Jared is planning to visit
Rheinsville City.”
