Chapter 78: Chapter 78

Violet's Point of View

It was a dream, a vivid one. I was waiting, under a tree waiting in a white dress holding a sun hat with my hair waving.

I was hugged from behind, I felt like a camera catching every moment, that scenery was so dreamy for an inexplicable reason I was hugged from behind, and my laugh filled the whole scenery.

I turned and saw a guy with no face but felt so warm, are faces were close, but I felt a presence in front of my face the reason for me to slightly open my eyes

'What the heck!' I said to myself as I was looking at Jeric eye to eye

Jeric gulped, and so did I because I couldn't move, and Jeric said, "I'm sorry Miss, someone pushed me."

Jeric stood outside, and I did the same while fixing my clothes. I looked to the side and saw that we were already at the hotel, I don't know what time we arrived but I took my pocket mirror and looked at myself just to check if I look presentable.

I saw that my saliva stained the other side of my face, and said to myself, 'This is so embarrassing.'

I wiped my face with a wet wipe and covered my face with loose powder, tinted my lips, and with a single glance, I could identify that I'm ready.

Jeric was standing at the door. I also got out of the car with my black puffed-sleeve dress and stilettos. My hair is in a half-bun with waves before the ends of my hair.

I nod at Jeric as he uses his hand as a guide towards the hotel door and said, "let's go Miss."

I got inside following Jeric where he would take me, the buffet room was filled with expensive people, and I heard from Jeric while he was talking to the waiter that we had a reservation under Mr. Arcilla.

I was thinking about where I heard that name, and as I was walking looking around Jeric stopped, so I stopped behind him.

He said. "Ms. Lennox this is Mr. Clarence Arcilla, the founder of Upright Agency---"

"You!" I shouted which surprised Jeric and looked at me and asked, "Do you know her my lady?"

And the man sitting in front of us said, "I know her more than she knows me."

I looked at him with an unbelievable feeling, this man in front of me was the ex-suitor. We didn't go beyond the relationship stage because I was so focused on my study and said with a smile, "Hello Clarence, or should I say CEO Arcilla."

I sat as Jeric pushed my chair, Jeric bowed, and before I was comfortable I asked him. "Where are you going?"

Jeric chuckled and said, "Too ran an errand, Miss. I'll be back before you both finish your conversation. Enjoy!"

Jeric started to walk away, and I looked at him and then looked back at the person in front of me.

'This is so awkward! Why is he looking at me?' I asked myself while looking at Clarence, but this time he was a bit mature. I also didn't think that at an age like this he's already the CEO.

"It's been a long while Mr. Arcilla---I didn't know we would face each other in this situation," I said to him while smiling.

He tilted his head to the right side a little bit and said, "Right, I didn't expect to meet you because four years ago they said that you were dead, but here you are! In one piece."

Clarence stopped and stared which made me chuckle, not because I was so full of myself, but because I know that stare, and I'm getting that a lot.

"So I heard from my secretary that you're here to offer a partnership with my company but what would you offer?" I went straight to the point, not because I wasn't comfortable, it's just because I had a full schedule.

Clarence flashed his killer smile and said. "I heard that you'll be releasing a new vehicle that can change the engine or be upgradeable. Upright Agency is all about producing games, we have this one game that's about car racing, and its reviews soar fast this month. I'll offer you to copy this design so that you can use it as the main design for your car."

I was stunned. I knew there were offers like this when it comes to a design especially when it comes to apps, it was pretty rare but cost a lot of sales.

Clarence presented me with some designs, and the cars have rustic brown, galaxy green, and majestic gray. The details on the cars are pretty much attractive, so I couldn't help but be amazed and excited about that offer.

I was about to say something when I suddenly forgot to shake hands with him, "Where are my manner's nice to meet you again Mr. Arcilla."

Clarence held my hand as his face was slowly approaching my hand for a kiss. After what he did, we both stopped and stared at who was standing at our table.

"What are you doing?" he asked, and the tone of what he said was not pleasant.

I looked at him directly, but he was just looking at our hands, 'What is Liam doing here?' I looked around as Clarence and Liam's stares clashed.

I was stunned as I looked at Liam and asked him the same, "You? What are you doing here?"

Clarence didn't let go of my hand and gripped it lightly which caught my attention.

Clarence asked. "Who is he, Ms. Lennox?"

I don't know what to answer but for a split second I thought that I don't have anything to say to him because he was not my person anymore, he was someone else's...

Liam's hand clenched, and said, "I'm her fiance! You dimwit!"

I was too stunned to speak, and as my heart beats faster I look at him---confused. Before I could react Liam held Clarence's collar and punched him, making him fall on the floor that made a whole commotion.

"What are you doing!"

I held Clarence and asked if he was okay, I don't know what happened but Jeric suddenly appeared, and I said. "Help Mr. Arcilla, now!"

Jeric bowed, and I stood up to my feet and said, "What's your problem? Do you know him?"

He looked in a different direction with a pissed look on his face, and said, "I don't."

I sighed and said, "I don't know what your problem was to conduct that act, but you should care about your wife---she badly needed one."

"And---I don't want to be known as mistress Liam. Please let me be..." I added in a whispered tone and passed by him.

I didn't let him speak anymore because I walked out, but why does "your wife stings a lot?'

Why?
