Chapter 221


    "Hey, you! You..." Sarah''s face showed an awkward expression, and her brain was buzzing.


    "Actually, I saw the guy who did the surgery on Maka at Mercy Hospital that day too." Violette looked


    at the fear and nervousness on her face, speaking with a stern tone, "If you want to threaten me, you


    better think carefully if you can handle the consequences of being abandoned!"


    At that moment, the juice and snacks were served.


    Violette leisurely started eating her afternoon tea.


    "Violette, I underestimated you!" In just a few short minutes, Sarah was exposed, "We''re even now!

    Let''s pretend nothing happened! I won''t tell Elijah your secret, and I hope you can keep your mouth


    shut too!"


    "Weren''t you pretty confident just now?" Violette mocked her, "You get a little leverage, and you show


    your true colors. How can you do research with this kind of personality? In another ten years, you still


    won''t be able to cure Maka."


    "You don''t have to attack me! Not unless your medical skills surpass mine." Sarah red at her, "Dr.


    Mitchel''s most despised people are those like you who abandon medicine for business!"


    Violette took a sip of juice; the sour and sweet taste was very refreshing.


    "Aren''t you curious about who did the surgery on Maka?" Violette raised her eyes and looked at her


    indifferently, "Do you think lies will never be exposed?"


    "Do you think I didn''t investigate? I just haven''t found out yet... You know the truth, but you won''t tell


    me. You see me and Elijah together, and you''re dying of jealousy..."


    "Sarah, don''t disgust me. If I wanted to break you two up, I''d just call Elijah, and he''d dump you."


    "Don''t threaten me!" Sarah shouted.


    "Doesn''t it feel terrible to be threatened?" Violette took a small bite of cake and said slowly, "The guy


    who did the surgery on Maka was a middle-aged man with short hair and a thin build..."


    Sarah''s eyes widened, "Violette, why are you helping me?!"


    "Because I don''t want to see you anymore." Violette spoke coldly, "Sarah, don''te looking for me


    again. I''m busy and don''t have time to argue with you."


    Sarah: "I understand! Thank you for telling me this important clue!"


    ...


    A week before Violette''s birthday, Brandon pushed open the door to Elijah''s office.


    "Elijah, did you receive Violette''s birthday invitation?"


    "No." Elijah''s eyes were slightly downcast, and there was a hint of sadness in them, "You?"


    "Me neither. If she doesn''t even invite you, there''s no way she''d invite me." Brandon guessed, "I


    suspect she might not be celebrating her birthday."


    "That''s possible."


    Violette had always been low-profile.


    "But you''ve got the gift ready; you have to give it to her." Brandon said, "Why don''t I call the Dennis


    Group and ask?"


    Elijah: "You can ask if you want, no need to report back to me."


    Ten minutester, Brandon came to report to Elijah.


    "Elijah! Violette has gone too far!" Brandon eximed, "She''s nning a grand birthday party! She


    booked thergest banquet hall in Shangri-La Hotel for her celebration! But she didn''t invite us!"


    Elijah''s heart felt like it was stabbed with a knife. Maybe to Violette, he, her ex-husband, was already a


    stranger.


    "She doesn''t invite me; she must have her reasons." Elijah answered calmly, "Have you finished your


    work? Or should I give you more tasks?"


    Brandon immediately turned around and left.


    The office became quiet, but Elijah''s heart couldn''t calm down for a long time.


    Half an hourter, he dialed the number for Shangri-La Hotel—
