    Chapter 65


    The car was not speeding; afortable breeze flowed through the windows. Jack held the steering


    wheel with one hand in an attractive manner. He could feel her eyes on him although he was not


    looking at her. He could even guess her current expression and thoughts.


    “Don’t you have friends?” Violet asked him softly, “Shouldn’t such enjoyment be shared with friends?”


    He kept his eyes forward. “Of course I have friends, but I prefer to be alone,” he replied in a low voice.


    “Everyone is busy anyway.”


    “You don’t trust people.” Violet was honest with her thoughts. “You don’t feel secure.”


    Jack frowned slightly. “Don’t get it wrong, you don’t know me very well.” His sensual lips moved softly.


    Actually, after spending a few days together, she probably did know him quite well by now.


    He had been a child of a single-parent family even since his parents’ divorce. It was rather amazing


    how he had achieved his current position in spite of those circumstances.


    Five minutester, the car stopped at the mountain foothills. They unbuckled their seat belts and got


    out of the car. Violet brought the bottle of water with her and followed Jack to the steps at the foot of the


    mountain.


    Jack did not speak, nor did he look at her; he simply walked alone in front.


    Violet followed him closely.


    “Do you work out?” The warm breeze blew on Jack.


    “Mostly,” she replied, “I exercise when I have time. Hiking is easy for me.”


    He continued up the mountain, no longer talking.


    Violet followed him. Actually, she did not really understand the situation. Why had she followed him


    here for a hike?


    Was it appropriate for two singles to be alone together?


    Still, she could judge that Jack was a man of good character.


    She wanted to get a breath of fresh air, a respite from all the things that had been happening recently.


    Not long after they left the office, Armand made a phone call to Samantha. Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    In his office, he told his sister the news in a low voice.


    “What?” Samantha felt her chest constricting. She was mystified. “Jack brought Violet to the


    company?”


    “Yes, but she didn’t get out of the car,” Armand said, “She stayed in the front passenger seat. Jack was


    just dropping by the office for a while. He left with her after that.”


    “Are you sure it’s Violet?” How Samantha hoped that it was not true.


    “It’s Violet. I knocked on the car window to talk with her. She’s the bride at the wedding.”


    “Didn’t you send someone to follow where they are going?” Samantha suddenly felt a sense of


    foreboding. “What’s Dawn for if they’re really together ”


    Armand was worried as well. “I’ll get Dawn toe back right away!”


    “Okay!” Samantha tried to calm down. “As long as they aren’t married, we can still look for opportunities


    to get Dawn into Jack’s bed. We’ll take photos and release the news. That will put him under massive


    pressure from the public. It’ll be hard for him to say no to marrying Dawn by then. His grandfather is a


    man who cares about having a good reputation.”


    Armand confirmed his approval of the idea. He did not feel like he was sacrificing his daughter at all.


    “We can’t count on Liam for the time being. Dawn is our only hope,” Samantha said, “Believe me, once


    Dawn marries Jack, they can still fall in love and bond with each other after that. Dawn is an


    outstanding girl. Also, it’ll be impossible for Jack to mistreat her when I’m around. It won’t look good on


    him anyway if it gets out. All he can do by then is pamper her,”


    “I know. I’ll contact Dawn immediately” Armand hung up the phone.


    He was in a particrly foul mood. He had been working very hard in the Yancey Group but had never


    been taken seriously. Jack would be forced to pay attention to Armand if he became his father-inw.


    He would not still be so dismissive of him.


    Furthermore, if Dawn bore a son for the Yanceys, Jack would surely show them even more love and


    affection as a father. The future of the Zieglers looked bright.

    Thus, he picked up his cell phone and dialed his daughter’s number…


    At that moment, Jack and Violet had reached the halfway point of the mountain. The mountain breeze


    was pleasant; the troubles of their hearts had vanished with the wind as well.


    Turning his eyes to look down the mountain, the field of vision is the wide panoramic view of the


    prosperous city.


    The path on the mountain was made of single-step stones and was easy to hike on. There were also


    pavilions at certain intervals of distances. They estimated that it would take them another 20 minutes to


    reach the top.


    Except for the sound of the mountain breeze blowing through the leaves on the tree, their surroundings


    were rtively quiet. Suddenly, Violet’s ears caught an odd sound. She stopped, frowning slightly, and


    looked behind her…
