The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 297 - Furious Violet



  Violet woke up, usually, drank her energy drink, and exercised. Then, she took a bath and went downstairs for her breakfast. But seeing Bull with Harvey and others eating normally made him frown. 

"What are you doing here?" She asked, sounding annoyed. Harvey and everyone looked down at them. 

"Vi," Bull stood. "They are safe, okay?" 

"Yeah, you can do that now. But how about the following days? How long are you going to stay here?" She gritted her teeth and they knew well that Violet couldn't handle her anger when it came to something like that. "Harvey, explain!" She shouted at him. 

"I'm sorry, Vi. We badly needed him in the team." 

"We don't! We need him to protect my child and Maxine. Didn't you get that?" She creased her brows at him. 

"Vi, calm down. I will finish this." 

"No!" She pointed at him. The right thing for you to do is to go back there." She scolded him. "I won't say this twice." 

"Violet," Harvey stood and approached her. "I ordered him to come here." Harvey reached her arm but she flinched away. 

"You knew what would happen if they found out." She gritted her teeth. Her eyes were flared and she's burning up in anger. "I can't believe that you planned this without asking me." She pushed his chest. "Send him back!" She demanded. 

"Vi," Bull pulled her off from Harvey and hugged her. "It's fine. They are safe, I promise." 

  Violet glared at Harvey deadly. Her whole body was shaking in anger and she pushed away Bull. 

"Violet, I'm sorry," Harvey said softly. He reached her arm. "This won't take long. I promise." 

  She looked away and then she walked away. There's an awkward silence in the air

"Alright, ruined appetite," Johanna said as she pushed her soup. On the other hand, MJ continued eating her food and glared at her husband. 

"Fix that, Harvey." She said strictly as Harvey nodded his head. 

  Violet went to the garden that didn't have anyone on as she was about to punch the tree. An old man approached her and she turned around with those furious eyes. 

"Lady Violet," The old man bowed to him. 

"What?" She asked coldly. 

"I apologize that Master Harvey made a very impulsive decision, but this is all for you and Victor." 

  She stopped and faced him. 

"What do you mean?" 

"The only thing that could lead us to the Charles Empire is Bull." He said. "He remembered every detail of the facility. Ian or Leon don't know a few tunnels that he knew. It's also because of the nanomites that were once in his system. They injected a memory of recent scientists so they could get full formula." 

"What?" She creased her brows. 

"I'm sorry, Miss Violet. We just found it out now. Ian overheard about that incident. It means that Bull is the map to the whole facility." 

"How?" 

"We need time and have a dry run to check if she could spot other things." 

"Fuck." She looked away. "How long will this take?" 

"In a few weeks. I promise that he will be back as soon as possible." Carter said. "Your son is safe and so is Maxine."

  Meanwhile, in the house that Terrence owns, Maxine was currently making breakfast for herself and for baby Kal who was sitting on his highchair and screaming at the dogs. She almost forgot that she needed to feed them. So, she took out the dog food from raw meats and vegetables that Terrence made from their freezer labeled with the dog's name. She put it all in the microwave and she continued with stirring the soup. 

"I'm sorry, baby. Your food will be ready anytime." 

  She never thought that it's very hard not to have Terrence around. So, she set up the table, checked Kal's food, and made sure that it was not too hot. She sighed and smiled at Kal. 

"Your Daddy Terrence won't be here for days. But he's doing fine." She said as she took her spoon and tasted Kal's food. Then, she took Kal's spoon and fed him. He opened his mouth wide as he bounced his head and hummed. "That's my baby." She giggled and kissed Kal's nose as the baby giggled. 

  She organized the dishes on the dishwasher and then she turned it on. She wiped off the countertop and glanced at Kal who was pouting. His eyes were teary and then he wailed. She quickly washed her hands and wiped them as she approached her, unbuckled the safety belts, and pulled him up. 

"What's wrong baby?" She asked and hugged him. He momentarily stopped crying and he doesn't smell good. "Alright, we are going to take a bath now." 

  She said as she took him upstairs to the bathroom. She removed his clothes, disposed of the diaper, and set up the warm bathtub. After she's done bathing him and changing his clothes, she calls Terrence. 

"Babe," she turned her head back and frowned. She forgot that Terrence wasn't with them and it sucks. "Okay, how can I take a bath?" She asked. She put Kal on the crib and opened the door to the bathroom. She took a quick bath, wrapped her hair with a towel, and quickly dressed up. She glanced at Kal many times but he was busy with his puzzle toys. 

  She sighed and went to her dresser to put her beauty care products on. She smiled when she noticed that Kal became too focused on the blocks and putting them on the box shapes. She wants to have a smart kid like him. And not too smart is fine, she will love her baby no matter what. 

  She then brushed her hair and then, she approached Kal on the crib. 

"Baby, do you want to go outside? How about checking out the greenhouse and farm?" 

  He lifted her arms to her. She picked him up and kissed his cheeks. Suddenly, the telephone started ringing. So, she went to the bed and picked up the telephone to answer it. 

"Hello?" 

"Babe," Terrence said softly. 

"Terrence!" She sighed. "Kal, say Hi to dada." 

  Kal grabbed the string of the telephone as he tried to take it away. 

"Hey, Kal," Terrence said softly. "Mommy wants to talk to you." 

  She carefully placed it to Kal's ears as they listened to Violet. 

"Kal," Violet called as Kal's eyes widened. "Hey, baby. Talk to me, please…" 

"It's Mommy." 

"Tata…" He babbled a few words and held the phone. 

"Mama," Max led him and although he couldn't say those exact words, he was babbling some sounds. 

"Kal, I missed you," Violet said softly. "Mommy loves you so much. Daddy loves you too." 

  Kal stared at the telephone and pointed at it. 

"Mom~Mom…nom~nom…" 

  Violet giggled from the other line. 

"Can I have a face time later, Max? I missed him." 

"Sure,"

"I will see you later, Kal," Violet said and then, Terrence spoke. 

"Darling," 

"Hmm?" 

"You need to be watchful, okay? I set up the sprinklers on time." 

"Okay. Kal and I will take a walk in the garden and check if there are ripe vegetables that we can use for later." 

"That's good." He said. "By the way, I kept the other entrances closed and locked. I am currently checking out the movements." 

"Okay, we will have a nice walk and Kal needs to nap so I can prepare for lunch." 

"I will keep on monitoring you, love."

"Thank you, love." 

"I will hang up now." After three seconds Terrence hung up. Then, she looked down at Kal who had those bright wide eyes. She kissed him and took the baby carrier. The puppies approached them and wiggled their tails. Kal smiled at her and screamed at the dogs. One of the dogs barked and was pushing the stroller. 

  She smiled and approached them as she took the stroller and carefully put Kal on the stroller. The baby looked around as the dogs followed and they went to the greenhouse. She took the basket while the dogs were smelling around while she checked the vegetables and fruits that they planted. She took out the basket and started picking up the fruits. 

  The dog barked in a direction outside that alarmed her. She put down the basket as she peeked outside. She was surprised to see the caretaker that Terrence hired. He waved at her as she went to the door. 

"Terrence called me," he said. "He said that I have to remove weeds in the  yard." 

"Oh," She said. "He's currently busy." She said. 

"Don't mind me. I will just pull out weeds." 

"Okay," She nodded her head. 

"Everything alright there?" He pointed to the greenhouse. 

"Yes, I was only picking up vegetables." 

"Great." The old man nodded as he walked away. She held the dogs down and she quickly approached Kal who was playing with his toys. 

  She pulled out his phone and called Terrence. He wasn't answering at first but then she called him again. Shortly, he answered. 

"Love," 

"Hmm? Is there a problem?" He asked. 

"The caretaker of this house arrived here." 

"What?" Terrence frowned. 

"Did you tell him to pull out weeds?" 

"No. I didn't." 

  Maxine became alert as she quickly took out Kal from the crib and the baby frowned. 

  She rushed back inside and went directly to the control room as two dogs followed her. She closed the locks through the control. Kal started crying and she panicked a little as she kept Terrence on the other line. 

"I will call him," Terrence said.
