Prosperous Marriage: Married to My Brother-in-law

Chapter 936 34: Untitled 2

Those black-clad men stopped Violet Aiken and coldly demanded she apologize to Camila Ruiz. There was no need to ask to know that Jimmy Horne had arranged these men for his beloved wife.

Crashing into the young mistress right in front of them, did she think they were dead?

Initially, Violet Aiken had an arrogant attitude and even threatened to call the police. Who would have thought that as soon as she took out her phone, a black-clad man snatched it away. With a flick of his hand, Violet's phone flew onto the road, just as a car drove by, the tire mercilessly crushing it, and Violet could even hear the sound of her phone being destroyed.

Then, two black-clad men roughly grabbed her arms, one on each side, dragged her back, and forcefully threw her at Camila Ruiz's feet, coldly ordering, "Immediately apologize to our young mistress!"

"Don't scare the young girl," Camila Ruiz scolded her people, but did not make any substantial effort to stop them.

"You, you all... who are you people?" Violet was startled.

Even Lia Aiken was surprised, sizing up Camila Ruiz with curiosity.

Charlotte Lewis, hearing the black-clad men mention a young mistress, quickly understood Camila Ruiz's identity since she lived in T City. She hurried over, holding her daughter, and politely said to Camila, "So it's the young mistress, my apologies for not recognizing you sooner."

Camila handed her daughter to Lia, who was still speculating about her identity. Lia passively took the little girl, who was not afraid of strangers. Being held by Lia, the girl smiled, and Lia instantly liked this chubby and adorable little girl.

"You're all seniors of our Lena, no need to be so formal, I've just come to pick a few paintings." Camila's words hinted at her identity, so Lia no longer needed to guess.

Lia realized, so it's the young mistress of the Flaming Gate.

After Camila revealed her identity, she looked at Violet, still smiling, but her gaze made Violet shiver. She said, "You were too reckless; if I hadn't stood firm and you had knocked me down, what if my daughter got hurt?"

Camila witnessed the conversation and actions between the Aiken sisters just now.

Originally, she intended to step in to help Lia, but seeing how swiftly Lia grabbed Violet's hand, she knew Lia could handle Violet without help, so she watched the scene from the entrance.

Charlotte had been watching the Aiken sisters and didn't notice Camila's arrival.

Lia's strength left Camila quite satisfied. The woman her big brother liked should not be weak.

"I... it was an accident." Despite her arrogance, Violet had no choice but to bow to the situation.

Frightened by the black-clad men's cold glare, she repeatedly apologized to Camila, almost kneeling, until Camila said she wouldn't hold it against her, and only then did Violet dare to get up, scurrying away with her tail between her legs.

For the first time, Violet understood that as the second Aiken daughter, she wasn't even worth an onion in some people's eyes.

After the small commotion, Camila really did buy a few paintings from Charlotte's gallery.

Lia always felt that Camila wasn't truly interested in the paintings because she purchased them so casually.

Camila seemed pleasant to interact with, yet Lia felt her gaze often carried curiosity.

Not until evening did Camila leave with her entourage.

Lia stood at the gallery's entrance, watching Camila, surrounded by black-clad men like an empress, majestically depart.

Camila's grand departure drew the attention of many passersby.

"She came for me, didn't she?" Lia softly said, aware of her senior beside her.

Charlotte thought for a moment, then nodded, "It seems so."

Lia didn't know what to think, but she chuckled bitterly and said nothing more, turning back inside.

Charlotte saw a luxury car gradually approach and stop. The man inside got out, holding a large bouquet of roses. She quickly turned to Lia and said, "Lia, Mr. Horne is here."

Ivan Horne, carrying a large bouquet of roses, walked briskly, his handsome face and tall figure needing no bodyguards to enhance his presence. Alone, he exuded the aura of a ruler.

Even Charlotte, experienced as she was, had to confess upon seeing Ivan that being labeled a male god was no exaggeration.

"Mr. Lewis." When Charlotte was marveling, Ivan was already standing before her. His magnetic voice carried courtesy, reaching her ears, and Charlotte snapped out of her reverie, hastily using a smile to cover her embarrassment as a married woman and mother, still awestruck by Ivan.

No wonder so many women went crazy for Ivan Horne.

This man truly has the charisma that drives people mad.

"Lia's inside." Charlotte smiled as she stepped aside to let Ivan in.

By saying this, Ivan knew Lia had told Charlotte about their relationship, indicating Lia saw this senior as a confidante, a family member.

"Thank you, Ms. Lewis."

Ivan smiled and thanked her, then entered the gallery with the bouquet, his eyes scanning until he found the familiar figure he adored in the corner.

Charlotte turned back to watch him walk toward her fellow student with the bouquet, watching him hand it over to Lia, and when Lia accepted it, he affectionately helped her straighten her clothes.

His sincerity toward Lia was undeniable, but with Lia being with him, she would certainly face more than just Violet's envy but also the jealousy of many other girls.

Soon, Charlotte made peace with it.

The Horne men are domineering, definitely capable of protecting their women, and she didn't need to overthink it.
