Chapter 221
Violet had thought that the day would stop when it was time to get off work! There were only two minutes left until the end of her shift.
Skyler sent a message in their
in their group chat.
Skyler mentioned Megan and Violet in the group and sent, [Ellie and | are together now, and we want to invite you both to Quendar Restaurant for dinner!]
“If it is not one thing, it is another,” she thought.
Only then did Violet remember that Skyler had not told her and Megan about his relationship with Ellie. She and Megan knew why, solely because Ellie had provoked them.
Megan's emotional wounds were far from healed, yet she had to face the affectionate couple.
Violet Webb was extremely displeased!
Skyler’s actions were like thrusting a knife into Megan’s heart.
However, Skyler did not know that Megan liked him. He had not done anything wrong, right?
Violet felt that she was caught between a rock and a hard place.
Just as she was thinking about how to reject his invitation, she saw that Megan agreed.
Megan: [No problem. Skyler. Send us the location, and we will come. But | promised a friend to have dinner with him tonight. Would you mind if he joins us?]
Skyler: [Of course! But aren’t you shocked?]
Megan: [I am shocked, but congratulations, Skyler! You finally found true love!] As Violet read the conversation between the two of them, her heart ached. She sent a private message to Megan.
Violet: [Megan, what are you doing? | know you’re upset, and we don’t have to go tonight! Also, do you have any other friends? Why didn’t | know that?]
Megan: [Why shouldn’t we go? To make Ellie feel guilty? Or because we are interested in her boyfriend?] 1/15

Megan: [Also, | do have an appointment with someone tonight. He is sitting in the office of the Information Technology Department right now!]
Violet: [??? Which friend is it???] Violet was filled with questions, feeling like she was becoming a meddlesome old lady.
Megan: [Robert has been here for half an hour, and he insists on having dinner with me after work. I'll bring him over to show Ellie that her boyfriend is not the only male friend | have.]
Violet: [Have you really come to terms with it?]
Megan: [I have to come to terms with it, or should I ruin their relationship and steal her boyfriend? | can’t do that. Besides, Skyler is innocent. He doesn’t know that | have feelings for him. Let's leave it at that.]
Violet: [It’s good that you can think that way. Just don’t have any expectations from Robert. He’s a playboy. We should keep a distance from him as much as possible.]
Megan: [If Robert hears you slander him like this, he'll be furious!]
Violet: [Is it slander? Go ask around, and you will know what | am talking about!] Megan: [I’m just joking with you. | know what to do and what not to do!]
Violet heaved a sigh of relicf. If Megan could think that way, it would be for the best. She had just finished replying to the message in the group when she got off work. Violet, Megan, and Robert headed to Quendar Restaurant together.
When they arrived, Ellie and Skyler were already in the private room.
When Ellie saw Robert beside Megan, the smile on her face froze. She quietly let go of Skyler’s arm and said, “Here you are! Is this your friend, Megan?”
She stared at Robert with a smile in her eyes.
She couldn't believe that she had just managed to win over Skyler, and now Megan had brought in a handsome and wealthy man.
The man in front of her didn’t look like an ordinary person. Robert had already investigated Ellie’s background.
Ellie often played with multiple men, and she thought they were her cash machines and meal tickets. Did she think he didn’t know?

But for Megan’s sake, he had to keep this a secret. Otherwise, Megan might not let go of Skyler, and he might even have to help Skyler escape from Ellie's clutches!
He smiled calmly. “Hello, I’m Meggy’s friend, Robert. Nice to meet you!” Ellie’s eyes widened in shock as she exclaimed, “You're Mr. Foster!”
She had long heard the name of Robert. Although Robert was a friend of Patrick, when he came to see Patrick, it was typically via the CEO’s private elevator. For employees like them, it was generally rare to catch a glimpse of him under normal circumstances.
Ellie had never expected to see him in person today.
She was extremely enthusiastic.
Robert's old habit resurfaced, and he smirked, “Excuse me, do you know me?”
Ellie quickly introduced himself with a smile, “My name is Ellie. I’m Skyler’s...”
She smiled shyly and answered, “Good friend!”
Skyler frowned and did not say anything.
Violet couldn't help but laugh coldly, leaving no face, “Are you good friends sleeping with each other?”
She just couldn't believe that Ellie didn’t know why Skyler had invited her and Megan to dinne claiming to be good friends. It was utterly nauseating.
Violet thought of how Ellie’s face immediately lit up like a dog seeing its owner when she saw Robert. She was extremely frustrated, thinking Skyler was truly blind!
As Violet finished speaking, Ellic’s face turned pale in an instant.
Robert laughed out loud.
Skyler was stunned and looked at Violet in shock.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Only then did he realize that Violet seemed to hate Ellie.
However, he was not very happy with what Ellie had just said.
Megan walked past them with a cold expression and asked, “Aren’t we here for dinner? | am hungry now!” Robert's expression changed slightly. Was Meggy upset?

Could it be that she was jealous and despised him for being too nice to Ellie?
Robert was instantly overjoyed.
He quickly followed behind Megan and said, “Meggy, | want to sit next to you!”
Megan gave her a cold look but remained silent while Robert grinned and sat down. beside her. 52%
During the meal, Robert continuously served Megan food, displaying intimacy, “Meggy, the duck at Quendar Restaurant is exceptional. You must have some!”
Megan glanced at him and said, ‘I can take what | want, thank you.
Violet was stunned and could not help but laugh.
Robert reacted and did not know what to say. “You don’t need my help?”
Megan shrugged and answered, “I can do everything by myself. Don’t take it. personally!”
Robert genuinely liked her cold and aloof look.
He spoiled her with a loving smile and said, “You are right, always!”
Skyler looked at this scene. For some reason, he felt a bit uncomfortable and asked, “Megan, are you and Mr. Foster...”
Before he could finish, Robert immediately smiled and winked at him. He said meaningfully, “Of course, we're also good friends!” Skyler frowned even more.
Ellie kept peeking at Robert and did not focus on the food at all.
Tonight, it should have been her and Skyler showing off their love to Violet and Megan. Unexpectedly, Megan brought Robert over and messed everything up.
Violet was a bit thirsty and drank too much water.
Halfway through the dinner, she got up and went to the toilet.
She had just come out of the toilet when she bumped into a friend.
Rose was standing in front of the mirror, focused on touching up her makeup.
Violet went to wash her hands and caught a faint scent of perfume on Rose, and it seemed to be the latest perfume from Chanel. Seeing

Rose saw Violet in the mirror.
She couldn't help but smile. “Ms. Webb, you are here for dinner as well?” Violet’s attitude was lukewarm. “Yes!”
Seeing her cold attitude, Rose felt a little unhappy but couldn’t help but show off her intentions, “Ms. Webb, are you also here for a date?”
Violet frowned and answered, “It’s not a date! I’m having dinner with some friends.” After washing her hands, she went to the dryer. Rose chuckled and said, “I thought Miss Webb was also here for a date!”
