Noah Bates's father pondered for a moment, "Wait a moment." He wanted to talk with Violet Don.
"That's it, is Old Bates also trying to support his son?"
Noah Bates's father stared at the silhouette of Violet Don, "There are some things, I'd like to discuss with an old acquaintance..."

Twenty minutes later, a waiter invited Violet Don to the nearby balcony, saying a distinguished guest wanted to discuss something with her. Just as she walked in, she saw a silent silhouette standing opposite her—the man's face, much like Noah Bates's, had eyes that were even colder—it was her once father.
Violet Don almost wanted to flee, but was stopped by Emiliano Bates calling out, "Please wait a moment..."
Emiliano Bates, a man of splendid achievements and iron-handed tactics, rarely used the word 'please' to ask for favors.
Violet Don shivered and turned around, her gaze somewhat shrinking, yet she still called out, "Uncle, you..."
She respected Noah Bates's father.
