”What do you say? Do you want to hear some dirty words?” Greg asked, looking at her furtively. This time, he was not afraid. If Violet got angry, she would need to punish everyone - Lawrence, Tim, Mike and him. Greg doubted she would do it though, so he was not worried.

”Greg, you really deserve a good lesson from me,” Violet said, gnashing her teeth together. She was beyond irritated.

”Huh. You, my wife, are too harsh on me,” Greg tut-tutted, shaking his head. He continued looking at his cell phone and avoided her gaze.

Violet didn't know what to do with her husband. He was quite a handful.

Time passed by.

At eight o'clock that night, Tim and Alice arrived at Oriental Hotel.

”Why aren't Violet and Greg here yet?” Alice could hardly wait and was a bit restless.

”We should be patient. Lawrence and Mike haven't arrived either.” Tim said calmly. He was in no hurry.

”You are right. We are quite early.” Alice looked around the lobby, finding that it was empty of other guests. They had booked the entire hotel.

Suddenly, Alice spotted Lawrence, who was not far away from them. She immediately waved at him, saying, ”Lawrence! We are here.”

Lawrence saw the pair and walked over to them.

”Violet and Greg haven't arrived yet. I'll call them up and ask where they are right now,” Alice said, about to take out her cellphone. Lawrence sat down.

”No need. They will probably be here in a couple of minutes,” Lawrence said, glancing down at his watch. ”It isn't eight o'clock yet,” he added.

”Well, I got impatient so we arrived early. Waiting around for someone is so boring,” Alice complained, rolling her eyes.

”Ho-ho! So there is something that can wear you down?” Mike said from afar. He was here too.

His loud voice drew the attention of the three and they turned to look to him. Mike wore a suit and had brought Amanda with him.

As Amanda sat down next to them, she nodded to Lawrence and Tim, greeting them politely.

”Alice! Long time no see,” Amanda said. Her smile was breezy and sincere.

”Hello, Amanda,” Alice replied. Amanda was being friendly to her, so she saw no reason to be hostile.

Mike looked around, his brows knitted in confusion. ”Where is Violet? We informed them that we'd be here, didn't we?”

”Relax. I'm sure they are already on the way. Maybe they're stuck in traffic,” Tim said.

”Okay, we'll wait for them and have some chitchat then. When Violet comes, we'll celebrate her return,” Mike suggested.

Meanwhile, Violet and Greg got out of their car at the entrance of Oriental Hotel. Greg handed over the car keys to the security guard and walked over to Violet. She took his arm instinctively as they stepped into the lobby together.
