When Violet Zimmerman returned to her residence, Daxton Lancaster was still not back. The Lancaster Family's location was some distance from the city's shops, so driving back and forth took more than an hour.
Walking into the house absentmindedly, she only gave a perfunctory response when the servants greeted her.
At this time, Violet would usually take a nap, but now, whenever she closed her eyes, all she could see was her uncle's figure.
Although Joseph Lancaster sought her opinion, he didn't wait for her consent before pressing his thin lips down, cupping her face, and gently kissing her lips, taking a long time to pull away.
His thumb lightly rubbed her lip corner, whispering, "This kiss is enough for Joseph to savor a lifetime."
At that moment, Joseph's lip corners were lifted, but Violet's heart felt as if something had tightly gripped it, suffocating her intensely, and even now, it can't calm down.
