Chapter 1557
This made Jackie even more charming than those men who told her what they wanted right
off the bat.
He wanted to do it, but he kept his distance. Even though there were times when he crossed
the line, he did not take advantage of her.
Perhaps this was the highest form of a man slowly taking over a woman's heart.
He walked step by step into her world. However, instead of forcing her, he played hard to
catch with her, wanting her to make the first move.
Violet felt tortured at this moment. She tried to struggle for her freedom, but Jackie did not
give her a chance. Her nerves were tense as she was worried that other people might come
and see them. In the end, she bit her lips and said, "Let's go home."
Jackie pressed his forehead against hers, and his breath became heavy. “Go back where?”
Her head went blank for a second. “Go back home?”
He chuckled and played with her palm. “My home?” Violet nodded blankly, and then she

Jackie scooped her up from the ground and laughed. “ You should’ve told me earlier.”
The car was parked outside Azoor Villa, a villa owned by Jackie in the new district. It had
been vacant for a long time, and this was Violet's first time here. "Are we not going back to
the mansion?"
Jackie carried her into his room and said, “I said we’re coming back to my house, not the house of the Cliffords.”
Violet was stunned. “You’re playing with words again.”
Jackie put her on the table. He placed one hand on the table while holding her waist with the other. “ Nope. I didn’t.”
Violet knew what would happen next, so she lowered her head and said, “I want to take a bath— ”
Before waiting for her to finish her sentence, he landed a kiss on her. “Let’s take a bath together later.”
In the evening, at the Clifford mansion
while they were having dinner, the butler came to Thomas and whispered something into his ear.
Thomas was stunned, and then he waved his hand with a smile on his face.
Piqued by her curiosity, Daisie asked, “Is Uncle Jackie not coming back for dinner?”
Thomas chuckled. “Do you think he'll come back for dinner when he's with your Aunt Violet?”
“Oh gosh! Uncle Jackie and Aunt Violet are back together?” Her face was filled with excitement.
Thomas nodded and said, “Come, let’s eat.”
At that moment, he received a call from overseas.
He lowered his head to look at it and slowly rose to his feet. He looked at the three rugrats and said, “You guys eat
first. I have some matters that I need to attend to.”
Wayion looked silently at Thomas as he walked into the courtyard.
Daisie was too happy that Jackie and Violet were back together that she did not care about the rest.
While they were having dinner, Wayion found an excuse to go to the restroom and came outside the courtyard.
Thomas was standing inside the gazebo. He was still holding his phone to his ear and talking.
Wayion hid behind a bush of flowers. Even though Thomas was far from him, he could more
or less hear his voice.
“You're going to put behind everything I did to the Knowles and cooperate with me?”
The person on the other side of the phone said something, and he chuckled. “After all, this is
what I owe to the Knowles. Besides, the Knowles are the ones that took my daughter in and
raised her. You can come whenever you want.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWayion narrowed his eyes and left the courtyard.
When they finished dinner, Colton followed Wayion into his room. After ascertaining that
Daisie was not following them, they closed the door.
Wayion told Colton that Thomas was talking to the Knowles, and he had a hunch that the
Knowles would come to Octavia.
Colton frowned. “Does this mean that Nollace will be here too?”
Wayion shook his head. “I’m not sure about that. Daisie doesn’t know that he’s still alive.”
When Nollace returned to Yarammor, an “accident” had happened. They had not told Daisie
anything about it, and even if she found out something, all she would know was that Noilace
was already dead.
Colton crossed his arms in front of his chest and said, “It will break her heart again if they
run into each other again, and he can’t recognize her.”
Suddenly, an idea popped up in his head, and the corner of his lips curled up. “I have an
idea to stop him from coming to Octavia.”
