Chapter 2
Violeta knew about Zelena’s devious schemes. Zelena’s words immediately strained the relationship between Violeta and her parents. In her previous life, Violeta had decided to stay with the Blake family out of gratitude after hearing such an explanation. But in this life, she wouldn’t allow Zelena to have her way! Repaying the Blakes’ kindness to her was important, but she didn’t have to stay with the Blake family to do it! Violeta pulled her hand back from Zelena’s grasp and discreetly wiped it on her clothes. “Mom, Dad, what I mean is, now that your biological daughter has returned, I should also go look for my biological parents.” “You want to look for your biological parents?” Mr. and Mrs. Blake exchanged glances. They were heartbroken to learn that Violeta wasn’t their biological child since she was an outstanding girl. However, they felt more distressed about Zelena, who had suffered all these years. That was why they suggested that Violeta give up her room for Zelena and stay in the dormitory after starting school. It’s reasonable for Violeta to proposed to look for her biological parents. Violeta continued, “You’ve raised me for so many years, and I can never fully repay your kindness.” Violeta started bowing as she expressed her gratitude. “Vio, don’t do that!” Mr. and Mrs. Blake quickly interrupted her. “There’s no need to say such things! It’s understandable if you want to look for your biological parents. Since you insist, how can we stand in your way? If you want to do it, go ahead.” Zelena frowned as she watched this scene unfold, realizing her schemes weren’t going to plan. If this wench really leaves, how can I take my revenge?! No way. I can’t let Violeta leave! Zelena quickly said, “Mom, Dad, we can’t let Vio leave. Actually, I already inquired before I returned. Vio’s biological parents are in bad shape, and their family is barely making ends meet! Her father is a compulsive gambler, and her mother is an uneducated, malicious woman. Everyone in their neighborhood knows it. Also, Vio’s older brother is basically a notorious bachelor. He’s almost thirty years old but isn’t married yet! Vio deserves better!” Violeta was dumbstruck. She had no idea what her biological parents were like, and she never expected Zelena to know anything about them. Zelena was going to such great lengths to make Violeta stay, only to slowly torment and torture Violeta later on. Unfortunately, Violeta didn’t want to relive her former life and had no interest in constantly fighting with Zelena. All she wanted was an ordinary life. “It’s okay. After all, they’re my biological parents, and we’re related by blood. I won’t treat
them with disdain, whether they’re poor or rich. Did you return because you knew Mom and Dad were wealthy?” Violeta asked thoughtfully. Zelena was taken aback. She stuttered briefly and quickly said, “How could that be?! That’s not who I am, sis. Please don’t misjudge me. Mom, Dad, please tell Vio I’m not like that!” “Don’t worry, Zelena. Vio was just asking casually. Don’t overthink it.” Mr. and Mrs. Blake quickly reassured Zelena when they saw her stuttering anxiously. “That’s right. Vio, how can you say that about Zelena? She had no idea whether we were rich when we found her.” What a joke! Violeta silently roared. Perhaps Mr. and Mrs. Blake truly believed it. Zelena knew from the start that the Blake family was wealthy, so she had returned so readily. Not only did Zelena know about the Blake family’s wealth, but Zelena had also returned to seek revenge on Violeta. After being reborn, she envied Violeta when she discovered everything! However, Violeta couldn’t reveal these truths because Zelena would never admit to them. Moreover, if she did speak out, Mr. and Mrs. Blake would surely think she had a concussion in the accident. Violeta composed herself and said, “Mom, Dad, I feel the same way. No matter how my biological parents are doing, I should go back and meet them. Isn’t that the right thing to do? You found your biological daughter, so it’s only right for me to find my own biological parents, right?” Zelena was reluctant to let Violeta leave, but what Violeta said made perfect sense. Zelena had no reason to stop her. Mr. and Mrs. Blake agreed with Violeta. “Alright, since you want to go and look for your biological parents, go ahead. But Vio, remember that you’ll always be our daughter even though you’re not our biological child. The Blake family will always welcome you with open arms.” “Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Dad.” Violeta believed that her parents genuinely cared for her at that moment. But she also knew it wouldn’t be long until they considered her the most wicked woman in the world under Zelena’s influence. After thinking it over, Violeta decided to leave at this time to leave them with a better impression of her. She wanted to depart immediately after explaining to them because she didn’t want to stay here for a moment longer. Based on Zelena’s clues, Mr. and Mrs. Blake conducted an investigation and found the address of Violeta’s biological parents. They offered to send her there. Violeta initially wanted to turn them down, but after thinking about it, she agreed to be taken to the train station. As Zelena watched Violeta leave Blake Manor, she felt anxious and helpless. She didn’t understand why Violeta was determined to leave the Blake family. This was different from what she
remembered. But after composing herself and thinking about it, Zelena felt relieved. This wench has been spoiled since she was young, and her biological parents are so poor. She won’t be able to stand it. She’ll definitely return dejectedly. Then, won’t she be at my mercy!? Heh. I want to see how long she’ll last! Violeta was sent to the station. The driver gave her a train ticket and a piece of paper with a name and phone number written on it. “Ms. Violeta, this is as far as I’ll take you.” “Thank you.” Violeta thanked him. Holding the ticket, she turned around and walked into the train station. After a two-hour journey, Violeta arrived in Quinston. She left the train station and dialed the number on her cell phone. A man’s voice came through. “Hello.” Violeta paused and said, “Hello? Is this Zero? I’m your daughter. Can you come and pick me up now?” There was silence on the other end of the phone. Violeta thought he didn’t believe her and was about to say something else, but the man on the other end said, “Stay where you are. I’ll send a car to pick you up.” After that, the call ended, and Violeta was left with the dial tone. Violeta was stunned. I didn’t even tell him where I was. How will he send a car to pick me up?! Where will he know where to go?! Violeta was dumbstruck as she held her cell phone. It was a hot day, so Violeta decided to buy a bottle of water from the nearby convenience store. Two Rolls-Royces pulled up to the train station as soon as she left the store. Bodyguards wearing sunglasses got out of the cars and scoured around. Violeta walked over with her water in her hand. She never considered that these two Rolls-Royces were here to pick her up. After all, Zelena had previously mentioned that her biological parents were so poor that they could barely make ends meet. There was no way they could afford a luxury car. She opened the water bottle and took a sip but had yet to swallow her mouthful of water. A bodyguard approached her with a tablet, comparing it to a dot representing her location. He took off his sunglasses, revealing an excited, wrinkled face. “Ms. Violeta! I’m here to pick you up!!” “Pfft!” Violeta was aghast and couldn’t help herself as water sprayed out of her mouth. “What did you call me?”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
