Veild Bride : Love From An Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 105

“This dress is so stunning. It’s the latest work of Newson, but it only costs 14 thousand dollars. It must be thanksgiving feedback!” one young lady praised.

Responded another, “You can buy it for a collection!”

“No, I’ll buy it and wear it every day. He is my favorite designer!” answered the first young lady. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Violet strode forward alone, pausing before each window to scrutinize the intricate details of the garments and conjecture about the stories behind them. On occasion, when she encountered exceptional pieces, Violet would also capture them with her camera.

“Alyssa designed a new work! I didn’t expect her to participate in the exhibition!” exclaimed someone.

Another followed, “Oh my! She is a genius designer and I can’t adore her too much!”

Occasional exclamations erupted, yet it was not unpleasant to the ears since the crowds were all high- caliber individuals with a refined appreciation for art.

Everyone was appraising the exquisite works of art without disturbing the people around them. Numerous pieces were sold

out soon.

About half an hour later.

“Ah! Catch him! He robbed my bag!” A girl’s scream shattered the peaceful atmosphere.

The crowd was bustling, with their eyes turned towards the sound!

Violet also looked around and saw a man sprinting towards her direction while looking back with a bag in his hand! She was certain that the man was the thief!

“Argh!”

The crowd erupted in screams!

These graceful celebrities and ladies were so frightened that they hurried to step aside! Even the gentlemen who accompanied these ladies to the exhibition didn’t offer any assistance.

“He took my bag! There’s something very important inside! Can anyone help me stop him?”

A girl was screaming and chasing behind the running man, but evidently, she was unable to keep pace with him.

Violet’s eyes darkened slightly, and she seized the opportunity to extend one foot as the thief passed by her.

“Ouch!”

A thud sounded!

The thief tripped over and fell to the ground heavily.

Violet bent down, retrieved the bag from his grasp, and straightened to stare at him with an indifferent gaze.

When people gathered, the man touched his nose and rose to his feet from the ground. “Bi tch! Mind your own business!” shouted the man, who then produced a dagger and pointed at Violet. He was in a rage with an intent to take her life!

“Ah!”

The ladies were so terrified that they screamed and hid in the arms of their male companions.

Violet leaned back and swiftly dodged the knife!

She then executed a swift turn and delivered a powerful kick to the man’s wrist, causing such numbness that his dagger was sent flying into the air. Violet elegantly extended her hand to retrieve the weapon, leaving onlookers in awe of her stunning display of skill!

The man who was kicked turned in a circle and then bumped into the window because of his unstable center of gravity.

Splash! The glass shattered and sca ttered all over the floor, and the beautiful dress was pulled off the hanger by the thief!

“Ah!”

There was another round of screams as the thief stepped on the valuable dress and destroyed it amidst the shattered glass pieces.

“Violet?”

The girl who had been robbed came to Violet and looked at her in astonishment.

Violet glanced back at the girl and stuffed the bag into her arms before asking. “Why are you out?”

The alarm sounded around, which alerted a dozen security guards. Violet remained composed and fixed her eyes on the thief who had managed to stand firm and whose feet were nearly impaled by glass fragments.

The thief also stared at Violet with hatred as if he were saying, “Bi tch, go to hell for poking your nose into my business!”

He wanted to escape, but it was too late since he was encircled by a team of security guards.

Three minutes later.

The room was empty as if it were an interrogation room.

Violet, Charlotte, and the thief sat on a sofa, surrounded by the exhibition director and security guards in uniform.

“He stole my bag! He’s a thief and should be sent to the police station!” Charlotte pointed at the man with indignation and continued, “Why do you have to steal things? I’m so ashamed of your parents!”

“We’ll talk about it later. Now that the dress is damaged, who will pay for it?” The director was very serious and said in an unnegotiable tone, “Pay the dress first before you leave. Then you can do whatever you want to him!”

“Of course, it’s him! He smashed the window, and everyone has witnessed it!” Charlotte retorted with anger.

“It’s none of my business!” the thief denied upon hearing the cost of the dress, and he furthered, “She pushed me! If she hadn’t, would I have broken the window? Check out the surveillance footage! I admitted to stealing, but I won’t take the blame for breaking it. It was all her fault!”

Violet sat on the sofa in silence, as if nothing had occurred.

Charlotte turned to gaze upon Violet, who remained silent with an air of indifference which left Charlotte feeling quite anxious.

The thief shouted, “I won’t pay for it!”

So, Charlotte rebuked on behalf of Violet, “Do you still know it’s wrong to steal things? If you didn’t steal, would she push you? You’re going to take full responsibility for this!”

The thief cried, “She pushed me! Why should I take full responsibility?”

“It’s your fault for stealing,” shouted Charlotte.

They quarreled with each other, and the whole space was full of bitter arguments.

Violet didn’t say a word throughout, and her gaze was fixed upon the thief with a frigid intensity that seemed to threaten his very existence.

“Enough! Shut up!” The exhibition director roared and inquired, “Who on earth are you paying for it? Hurry up and discuss it!”

Charlotte stood next to the sofa, casting a disdainful glance at the thief and crossing her arms in indignation.

The thief began to act shamelessly by saying, “I don’t have money! I can’t afford it! Will I steal if I have money?”

Charlotte frowned and said, “Do you stand a point? I can pay for the dress! But I have to pass him to the police, so he won’t do any harm to others in the future!”

“We won’t pay,” Violet declared indifferently. Seated on the sofa, she stared at the thief for a moment and continued, “He’ll pay for it. We won’t give you any penny.”

Violet made a statement? Even Charlotte felt a little surprised.

“I don’t have money!” The thief said shamelessly, “I’m as poor as a church mouse! I can’t afford it!”

The exhibition director freaked out and exclaimed, “Who will pay for it? 25, 600 dollars! Not even a penny less! Hurry up!”

“I said we won’t pay anything; don’t you understand?” Violet looked up at the man and added, “Not even a penny. He’ll take full responsibility.”

“Then you make him give the money. You can’t leave until he pays the money!” The exhibition director frowned and scolded, “If you delay any longer, a charge for loss of working time is to be demanded. My time is valuable!”

“You’re interesting,” Violet replied with an emotionless sound.

“In my opinion, you and he, half and half!” At this time, another person in charge of the exhibition chimed in, “Anyway, no one can pass the buck. The dress is indeed damaged.”

Charlotte pondered for a while before responding, “Okay. We’ll pay half of it! But I have to send him to the police!”

“We won’t,” Violet stated firmly and turned to look at Charlotte with an indifferent look.

10:27

Upon seeing Violet’s indifferent expression, Charlotte felt a slight constriction in her chest as she sensed the frigid aura emanating from Violet.

Charlotte blinked at Violet before shutting up.

It was a deadlock for another ten minutes.

Charlotte was in a dilemma. On the one hand, the thief had no money to pay it all; on the other hand, Violet refused to pay half of the money.

So Charlotte approached the window, turned on her phone, and discreetly dialed a number.
