Chapter 5
His expression was cold, and there was a frown on his face. He kept his hold on her wrist; there was no
indication that he was going to loosen his grip any time soon.
Violet surveyed the room slowly. Many people were standing around them.
Everyone was wearing resplendent outfits, but their faces were somber. The moment each of them saw
her, a glint of astonishment flashed across their grave faces.
These should be the Yanceys… Violet had seen them at the wedding.
People were sitting on the couches as well, worry was written on every face.
Jack pulled her until they were standing outside the big doors of the emergency room.
Violet quietly struggled to free herself, but Jack held onto her more tightly.
Twenty minutes later…
She could feel her legs turning numb from standing for too long. She had been awake since 5 in the
morning for make-up and to put on her wedding dress. She had not had a single bite until now.
Turning to look at Jack, Violet could see a moment of sadness and pain on his immeasurably
handsome face.
His grandfather must be extremely important to him, she thought.
Before they had met, she had searched the internet to understand some of his family background…
Violet could not help but forget about her own situation. She felt an inexplicable sympathy for him.
Truly, existence was suffering.
As she thought about it, her stomach suddenly felt extremely painful. Nausea enveloped her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was as though someone had stolen the energy from her entire being. Her vision turned pitch black
before she fell
unconscious.
When Violet opened her eyes once more, the first thing she saw was the snowy white ceiling.
The room she was lying down in was rather quiet.
She slowly surveyed her surroundings, only to discover the drip injection on her hand. She then
remembered how she had fainted.
There was nobody around! She could take this opportunity to escape!
Violet flung the blanket off herself and got off the bed. She had just opened the doors to the room when
she was startled by the two guardians at the door.
On either side of the doors stood a man, both in impeccable suits.
Violet’s eyes met theirs. She felt slightly awkward.
Turning away, she determinedly took a step forward.
The two men did not hesitate to block her. Did she regard them as mere decorative statues?
Violet looked to the left, then to the right. She chuckled. “Where’s Jack? I want to see him.”
“I’m sorry, but Mr. Yancey isn’t someone you can see on a whim.” The man had a cold, hard face.
Violet smiled and changed her tone. “Then you can let me go. I’m okay with not seeing him.”
The other man replied, “However, you have to be around when he wants to see you.”
Violet had nothing to say.
What in the world was this logic?
She closed the doors and went back to sit on her bed, sunk in deep thought.
She could not let him keep her imprisoned like this, could she?
What if his grandfather never woke up? Was he going to keep her locked up like this for the rest of her
life?
Thus, she racked her brains and came up with an idea,
She opened the doors once more and looked at the two men pitifully, clutching at her stomach. “Sirs,
my time of the
1/2

month is here.”
The men ignored her. She did not know whether they understood her
Observing their expressions, she continued. “I don’t have sanitary pads here, could you bring me out
so I can ge vomer
The two men exchanged looks. It seemed that they understood her. However, they were worried that
the would pull a fast
one on them.
“Ouch, my stomach hurts.” Her acting was top-notch.
One of the men took out his cell phone and made a phone call “Mr. Yancey, she’s awake. She says her
time of the month is here and she needs sanitary pads.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJack asked, “What are sanitary pads?”
“It’s… It’s…” The man was awkward. How could the president not know this?
However, it might not be strange. There were no women in his family, Jack did not even have a sister.
“It’s what?” Jack’s voice, coming from the other end, sounded impatient.
“She’s menstruating.” The man answered directly.
On the other end of the phone, Jack frowned. “Women are troublesome. Go buy somet
“Yes.”
The phone call ended. The man glanced at Violet before giving his companion a look. Til go buy them
After saying this, he walked towards the elevator.
Violet stayed at the doors and watched him walk away from them until he was no longer in their sight
“Please wait inside.” The other man gave her a steely look, noticing that she had the intention of
escaping
Indeed. Violet curled her hands into fists and lifted her leg before giving him a violent kick.
The man dodged her in an agile move. He whirled around and grabbed her wrist
With one powerful pull, he overpowered her in a few moves.
Dang!
His martial arts skills were excellent!
This was beyond what Violet had expected
She had thought that she would have no problem dealing with just one of them…
The man pushed her into the patient room and released his grip. He gave her a very knowing look.
“Still want to escape?”
“Yup,” said Violet quickly. “But I don’t know how to” After all, she was no match for him.
