Chapter 38: A Different Proposal

“Oh, my God! Violet!” the woman came running with her arms opened to hug Violet.

That action almost made Violet want to cry. Gwen was the only one that could actually make her feel loved inside those walls.

Violet didn’t have many friends actually, it was just the two of them, and Lance.

But her relationship with Lance was awkward and sometimes uncomfortable, so Gwen was the only one left.

“I didn’t believe when they told me you were back.” Gwen said retreating from the hug.

“Yeah, I just got home actually.”

“I can’t even imagine what you’ve gone through.”

But Violet wasn’t in the mood to tell anything.

So she just nodded, trying to pretend she was tired.

“You just take a bath and rest a little.” Arden said behind them.

She turned to look at him again, still digesting his indifference towards her ever since she returned.

Violet shook her head in affirmation again.

“Let's have a party on Saturday night to celebrate your return.” Arden added as Violet walked to the door.
