Chapter 133
Violet’s car left the city center and stopped in front of a clubhouse.
The black SUV stopped as well at a distance from hers to keep from being noticed.
Seeing Violet get out of the car and walk towards the clubhouse, the man with sunglasses in the black car turned to the man sitting behind him and said, “It’ll be a good chance to take her away as soon as she comes out.”
“Yes, sir!”
Then the man asked again, “Have you prepared any cloth?”
“Don’t worry. I’ve prepared some tapes and they are even better than the cloth!”
“First of all, you should force her to tell Jack’s secret as much as she knows. As long as you find out the truth, just kill her as soon as possible.”
“Boss, what if she doesn’t tell us anything?”
“Don’t worry. No one wants to die. He must be a fool who kills himself for others.”
“Kill her and throw her body into the sea. Then we’ll start to escape according to the planned route, and the money will be transferred to our bank account. If there is no news in two months, then it suggests that this matter has been ignored. Got it?”
“Don’t worry, boss. We’re not new hands after all and quite familiar with such issues.”
“Okay, then keep your eyes wide open on her, and don’t miss the chance once you see her come out.”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
This clubhouse, well-known in Rheinsville City, was located in a remote region far from the city center location and thus not the top choice for most people.
When Violet walked into the composite gate in high heels, she saw a middle-aged man sitting on the big arc sofa in front of the window. He looked imposing and somewhat elegant with a domineering aura, followed close by two young assistants in suits with ties.
“Ms. Violet Yeager. Please have a seat.” The man smiled. He was Donald Morrison, the president of the Grande Group, which was the fastest-growing enterprise in Rheinsville City.
“Sorry for being late,” she said with a soft voice as she sat elegantly on the sofa.
“It’s not that you are late but that we arrived early.” Donald poured some coffee for her, looking quite elegant and gentle. “It’s a great honor to see Alyssa again in person. You look so young.”
Violet said calmly, “Thank you.” However, she felt a little embarrassed, because she came here today to talk about an unpleasant topic.
“Alyssa, have you finished your personal affairs?” Donald smiled, but he felt uneasy to see that she hadn’t got into gear yet, although the contract had been signed. “Do you need my help?” He had read some news recently that Alyssa got too close to Jack, so he always had a bad feeling about it.
Violet smiled elegantly as she said, “Thank you, Mr. Morrison. I have handled it already.”
“Does that mean you can come to work right away?” He asked sincerely, full of expectation, “Next season we want to use your designs for the Paris Fashion Week.”
Violet looked at him calmly, “Mr. Morrison, I just want to ask you again why you decided to sign me, simply because of my reputation?”
“No.” The man shook his head and said, “I’ve seen your works. I think they are all fantastic, much better than the works of Helen, a popular design master in recent years. Your designs are perfect!”
Violet said with a smile, “In fact, there is no such thing as ‘perfect’ in this world. My works can only score nine points.”
“You are so modest.”
“It’s nothing about modesty but the truth.” Violet said sincerely, “I’m quite aware of my shortcomings and I think you know nothing about designing although you’ve seen my works.”
What did this mean as she changed her tone? The middle-aged man’s heart ski pped a beat and continued, “I praised your works while you think I know little about designing?”
“I’m afraid that I would make little progress with you,” Violet said as she handed over a document with both hands.
When the man saw the words “Letter of Resignation” on it, he frowned and asked in disbelief, “What? You intend to resign?!”
“Sorry.” Violet looked at him and calmly said, “I broke the contract. I will make compensation for you according to the contract.”
“That’s 6 million dollars. Have you thought it through?” The man reminded her, “Are you sure to lose 6 million dollars without doing anything?”
“OK.” She said without any hesitation.
Donald thought, “It seems that Alyssa has made a lot of money over the past years. 6 million dollars is not a small amount but she just agreed without any hesitation?”
He set the liquidated damages, simply because he was worried that she would break the contract.
After all, she was Alyssa, the most famous and mysterious designer in the world. Countless people wanted to sign her?
“I’ve transferred the money to your company account.” Violet said calmly, “Thank you for your recognition of my work. I haven’t thought it through before. I hope that I can make progress in a place where my shortcomings can be recognized.”
“Is it because of Jack?” Donald asked curiously, “Do you want to go to the Yancey Group?”
She replied lightly, “It’s my personal affair. There is no need to tell you.”
The middle-aged man smiled, “I’m afraid you can’t hide your identity as a great designer. Since you can break the contract, I can also break my promise.”
Did he want to make it public?
Violet smiled and said, “I don’t need to hide it. If you make it public, it will only make me more popular.” After saying that, she stood up and bowed to him. “Bye.” Then she left.
The two men were about to stop Violet, but Donald signaled them to let her go.
When the girl left, one of Donald’s assistants frowned and asked, “Mr. Morrison, is this a big loss for our company? How could she be so unreliable to break the contract?”
“She broke the contract, but she agreed to pay 6 million dollars as compensation. Now we are even.” Donald was very calm as he said, “To be honest, I’m not sorry for this matter. After all, we didn’t know her relationship with Jack until we signed her. If we knew that, I would not have signed her at first, so I had been a little contradictory about this matter these days. The Yeager Group has suffered a lot of
losses recently. There might be a risk of leaking confidential information if someone like her stays in our company. The Design Department is the only bright spot of our company to compete with the Yancey Group, or you can say we were better than them in designing.”
“Mr. Morrison, you are just comforting yourself.” The assistant sighed, “Remember that she is Alyssa, a famous designer.” “So what? She refused to work with us, so I have to let her go.” After saying that, he sighed and drank the coffee. When Violet walked out of the clubhouse, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The car was parked outside the clubhouse. She walked out as the warm sunshine fell on her. Her identity could not be hidden anymore, so she didn’t intend to hide it deliberately. Anyway, since she knew Jack, her life would no longer stay calm.
“She’s out. Get ready!”
Two men got out together from the black SUV not far away and walked towards the target.
Violet came to the driver’s cab. When she was about to get in, the two men caught her from behind, and one of them covered her mouth and dragged her into the black SUV!
