Chapter 116 Can’t Live for Ten Years​

Stanley frowned, “Don’t say that. It won’t happen.”

Ivy smiled bitterly, “Stanley, you know my physical condition, Dr. Joe said, even if I recover and leave the hospital, I won’t live for ten years!”

After saying this, she turned away lonely.

Stanley pursed his thin lips, finally glanced under the railing, and chased her.

On the first floor, Violet stopped talking to Lily and laughed. Looking up at the railing on the second floor, and seeing that there was no one there, she couldn’t help but wonder.

“What’s the matter, baby?” Lily saw it and then also looked over, but saw nothing.

Violet shook her head, “Nothing serious. I just felt like someone was looking at me for a moment. Maybe it was my illusion.”

“You should feel right.” Lily adjusted Violet’s hair.

Violet blinked, “Mom, did you see it?”

“No, but my daughter is so beautiful. If no one looks at you, it will be weird.” Lily said with a smile.

Violet was amused by Lily, “Mom!”

“Well, well. Did you try all these clothes?” Lily opened the door of the fitting room and took a look.

Violet nodded, “Yeah.”

“Then let’s pay for it.” Lily waved her hand and said very proudly.

Violet quickly stopped her, “Mom, so many clothes. If you buy them all, it will cost at least hundreds of thousands of dollars. I am a designer myself. I have so many clothes, so I don’t need to buy so many.”

“You’re right.” Lily touched her chin, feeling reasonable.

Violet chose two or three of them, “Just buy these.”

“All right.” Lily smiled at the shopping guide.

Soon, the mother and daughter left the clothing store after buying the clothes. Then they went shopping in other places in the mall and took a taxi back.

When they returned to the apartment, it was only two o’clock in the afternoon. There were still two hours before the children finished school.

Violet put down the bag, patted on her shoulder and walked to the kitchen. Then she came out with the kettle, ready to make tea.

At this time, the phone she put in her bag rang.

Violet hurriedly put down the kettle, took out her mobile phone from her bag, and glanced at the caller ID. It was an unfamiliar local number. After hesitating for a few seconds, she still answered.

“Hello, is this Miss Hunt?” A gentle and polite female voice came from the other end of the phone.

Violet nodded slightly, “Yeah!”

“I’m the store manager of Vanneca.” The female voice replied.

Violet raised her eyebrows.

Vanneca? Wasn’t that the clothing store she and Mom went to this morning?

“What’s the matter?” Violet sat down on the sofa, putting her mobile phone to her ear and pouring herself a glass of water.

The store manager replied with a smile, “Here is the thing. Today is our store’s event day. As our guest, you won the first prize in our store. Congratulations!”

“Huh?” Violet didn’t feel happy at all when she heard that she won the prize. Instead, she frowned. “First prize? But when I was in your store, I didn’t see your store doing any activities. I haven’t drawn any prizes.”

Wasn’t this person a liar?

Hearing Violet questioning, the store manager looked back at the man behind her.

The man lifted his delicate and perfect chin slightly. The store manager nodded knowingly, and continued with smile, “That’s our hidden event. As for the lottery, it is not the customer draws, but we draw.”

“Really?” Violet took a sip of water and understood now, but still felt that something was wrong. However, she couldn’t tell where was wrong.

After that, the store manager confirmed the address Lily left in the store and ended the call.

Lily came out of the bathroom with a yawn, “Who is it?”

“Vanneca. They said I won the first prize, but I don’t think it should be possible.” Violet put down the phone and smiled. She didn’t take the call just now to heart.

Lily also nodded, “It’s definitely impossible. These stores are all stingy. How can they do any activities?”

“Yes.” Violet picked up the kettle and continued to make tea.

However, after about half an hour, the doorbell rang.

Lily went over to open the door while Violet was drawing designs.

Suddenly hearing Lily’s exclamation, Violet thought something was wrong. Then she quickly put down the design notebook and pencil, picked up the vase on the coffee table, and ran towards the door.

After running over, there was no danger in her imagination. There were only a few staff members wearing the uniforms of Vanneca, standing outside the door alone, holding a few exquisite gift boxes and smiling at them.

In this scene, Violet couldn’t help being in a trance.

So, the phone call just now was real. Did she really win the first prize?

When Violet was in a daze, Lily had already taken the lead to react. She quickly laughed and invited the staffs to put things in.

The staffs came in, put the things in accordance with the instructions, and then took out the receipts for Lily’s signature.

When Lily finished signing, they left.

“Baby, come here soon!” Lily waved towards Violet who was at the door.

Violet came over.

Lily opened the boxes one by one and then she exclaimed, “God! These are the ones you tried in the store. But you haven’t tried these red ones. Do you want to try them, baby?”

Violet shook her head, “No, I know they suit me at first glance.”

She looked at these red dresses, her eyes a little complicated.

Why were there some other dresses? Most importantly, they were red.

She was not particularly fond of red. But one person said that she was very suitable to wear red. That one was Stanley.

“No…” Violet muttered while biting her lower lip.

Lily heard it, put down the clothes in her hands and asked her, “What?”

“Could it be that winning the first prize is fake? These clothes were given by Mr. Murphy?” Violet pointed to the red dresses and guessed.

Lily tapped on her forehead, “How could it be possible? Vanneca is not owned by the Murphy Group! Besides, we went to this store temporarily. How did he know that? Could it be that he was in the store?”

“Well.” Violet nodded, feeling somewhat reasonable.

It seemed that she really thought too much.

“Okay, put these away quickly. Let’s pick up the kids.” Lily urged.

Violet smiled and moved these gift boxes into the room one by one, then came out with a change of clothes. She went to the kindergarten to pick up the children with Lily.

After seeing the child, Lily set off to Mr. Lowe’s house to attend the charity party.

Violet took the two children to a restaurant near the kindergarten, ready to go back after eating.

But during the meal, an uninvited guest suddenly appeared in front of her.

“Hey, Violet, what a coincidence!” Ivan smiled and waved to her, then looked at her two children.

“Hello.” Violet nodded slightly to him as a greeting.

Ivan pretended to be sad and sighed, “Tsk, you are still so indifferent to me.”

Violet took a sip of the soup indifferently, “What’s the matter?”

“Nothing. I came here to meet a big client. I just saw you, so I came over to say hello. These are your two children, right?” Ivan pointed to the two little guys, “I have always known their existence, but this is the first time I have seen them.”

“Mommy, do you know this uncle?” Calvin took Arya’s hand, looked at Ivan vigilantly, and asked Violet.

Violet said, “It’s Mommy’s previous boss.”

“Violet, our relationship is not just as simple as the boss and the subordinate.” Ivan looked at Arya, who was staring at him with big eyes blinking. He suddenly felt a little cute, reaching out to touch her face.
