Chapter 468

Violet adjusted her collar and smoothed her hair, trying to mask her nerves. "Do | look okay?" she asked, her

voice slightly trembling.

This wasn't an act; she was genuinely anxious. What if Carole turned out to be difficult?

Nanson nodded reassuringly. "You look perfect, absolutely stunning!"

Violet looped her arm through Nanson's. "Let's go in, then."

"Alright." Nanson knocked on the door.

Outside, Violet was a bundle of nerves, but inside, Carole wasn't faring much better. This was the first time

Nanson was bringing a girlfriend home.

Carole placed the freshly sliced fruit on the table. Just then, a knock echoed through the air.

Little White, their family dog, trotted over to the door.

"I'll get it! I'll get it! Little White, go get Annie out here!" Carole instructed quickly.

"Sure," Little White seemed to understand and padded off to the other room.

Carole hurried over to answer the door.

"Hey, sis," Nanson greeted with a warm smile.

Violet echoed him, "Hello, sis."

Carole responded with a nod, her smile slightly stiffening as she looked at Violet. The girl was indeed beautiful

and graceful, but there was something oddly familiar about her.

It was like she had seen her somewhere before.

Suddenly, it clicked. Wasn't this the woman she had witnessed slapping a sales associate in the department

store just yesterday? Could it really be her, or was she mistaken?

Carole furrowed her brow slightly, trying to shake off the uncertainty. Despite the dubious first impression, Carole

opted for politeness. After all, guests were to be treated with courtesy. "Con in," she said with a smile.

What if she was wrong? She couldn't unjustly accuse an innocent woman.

Despite Carole's suspicions, Violet didn't recognize her. She had no idea Carole had seen her the day before.

Violet warmly took Carole's arm. "Sis, you take such good care of yourself! Walking next to Nanson, people might

think you're his sister."

Violet was adept at flattery, knowing just the right thing to say to charm anyone.

Carole returned the compliment with a smile. "You look well taken care of yourself. you use Perfect skincare

products?"

Do

Perfect was the brand Carole had seen in the store the previous day.

Violet nodded, pleasantly surprised. "Yes! Sis, do you use the sbrand too?"

Carole paused, realizing she hadn't been mistaken after all. Violet was indeed the sMs. White from the store

incident.

It seemed unbelievable that today's charming Violet could be the sdomineering Ms. White from yesterday.

Perhaps there was more to the story?

Carole discreetly furrowed her brow but continued, "Please, cin and have a seat."

"Perfect products are quite effective! Great for hydration and smoothing out

young, Sis!" Perfect products weren't cheap by any means.

les. No wonder you look so

Living with her sister and niece, Carole couldn't afford such luxuries. It was obvious Violet was using Nanson's

money.

As they moved to the living room, Carole directed Nanson, "Offer Ms. White sfruit."

Nanson nodded and handed Violet a slice of watermelon. "Make yourself at home. Help yourself to anything

you'd like."

Violet accepted the watermelon with a smile. "You can callViolet, or just Vi. Ms. White feels too formal."

Nanson chimed in, "Yes, yes,

Family? After yesterday's events, Carole found it hard to warm up to Violet. Something about her just didn't feel

right.

Carole sipped her tea, trying to mask her discomfort. "You've only known each other for three months; isn't it a

bit early to talk about family?"

A flicker of embarrassment crossed Violet's face, though inside, she was fuming. How dare this woman, diving off

others' kindness, treat he with such disdain!

Nanson was puzzled as well. Carole was usually so easygoing, but today she seemed different.
