Chapter 222 Caught in the Act, What Are You Doing?

Grayson Sutton had never imagined Violet Don would strike him, and so, without flinching, he directly took her slap and, astonishingly, he laughed afterward. His voice, laced with amusement, reached Violet's ears, "You've hit and cried already, yet you still won't tell me what happened?"

What happened? She simply couldn't bring herself to say it.

Those shameful words made it impossible for her to confide, every bit of bitterness she had to crush between her teeth and swallow down with blood.

Seeing Violet like this, Grayson remained silent for a long time until, at last, the man sighed, "Violet, why must you always be so strong?"

Violet didn't respond, her eyes still red. Grayson reached out and pinched her chin, and she shuddered violently as if electrocuted.

"I'm sorry."

Her voice hoarse, she hastily apologized, not giving Grayson a chance to react before he blocked her way, his tall frame standing before her, "Hey, hey, it doesn't have to be like this, does it?"
