Chapter 12 Lying​

“I would like to know why you are afraid of my presence?”


Violet said in a low voice, but her strong momentum made Phoebe feel a trace of oppression.


Phoebe immediately denied, “I am not afraid.”


“What a joke. What have you got to make me afraid?”


Phoebe seemed to say it with confidence, but she was not.


Because she felt Violet was different from she was five years ago, but she could not tell what exactly was different.


Violet knew Phoebe was lying.


But for a time, she did not know why Phoebe was lying.


The party would begin soon. Violet had something to do, so she let go of Phoebe and turned into the ballroom.


Seeing that Violet walked into the crowd, Phoebe stomped her feet.




“Miss Hunt, why are you here? The party is about to begin.” Suzy Moore came from behind to greet Phoebe.


“I came out for some air.” Phoebe turned around with a smile.


As she was speaking, her eyes fell on the diamond necklace with a value of ten million on Suzy’s neck.


Suddenly, an idea to deal with Violet occurred to her mind.


At 80, the public welfare donation activity officially began.


The present people, under the guidance of the host, rushed to the side hall.


The party was ostensibly a donation event, but in reality it was an event the Moore family selecting their partner for the next project.


So these people were secretly competing.


Only Violet stood back. She had only come here to visit an old friend on behalf of her teacher.


Halfway through the donation, the Moore family still didn’t show up.






Violet guessed only the one with the largest donation could see the Moore family.


If she wanted to see Mr. Moore, she’d have to find another way.


Biting lips, she wondered how she could see him and did not notice a waiter walking over with a tray in one hand.


As she took a step, two people head on ran into each other.


Fortunately, there was nothing on the tray and there was no great noise.


Violet tried to protect the gift in hand, so her bag dropped onto the floor.


“I’m sorry, Miss, I’m so sorry.” The waiter stooped to apologize.






He looked like she was under 20, Violet thought he was not intentional, so she said, “It doesn’t matter.”


After that, she walked toward the toilet and forgot her bag.


And Phoebe hiding in the dark did not come out until Violet walked away.


She picked up the bag from the floor, slipped a diamond necklace into it when no one was paying attention to her and then threw the bag back.


After that, she disappeared into the corner.


It was only after coming out of the toilet that Violet realized she had lost her bag.


She remembered that she had bumped into the waiter earlier, and that was probably when she dropped it.


When she came back, the bag was indeed lying on the ground, and when she picked it up, a crowd suddenly swarmed around her.


Violet frowned and vaguely felt something wrong.


“Hand it over.” Suzy stepped out from the back of the crowd and said in a commanding tone.


“What??” Violet was confused, for she did not know this person.
