Chapter 631

"Yes darling, you are right. It's lucky I have you around me," Cherry said. She raised her head and gazed at Jackson's handsome face soulfully.

"Honey, we have had so many troubles. We've been through so many hardships together. Thank you for always being by my side. You're my warmth and my home."

"Baby, I should be the one to say thank you," Jackson told her gently. "I don't know what happiness is without you."

"We'll be together for the rest of our lives, won't we?" Cherry asked him coquettishly, already knowing his answer. She knew she was the only one who resided in his heart.

"Yes, I will love and spoil you like this for the rest of my life," Jackson promised his wife and kissed her.

Violet's room had pink walls that were lined with cartoon posters. The room was lovely and cheerful, just like her.

Lying on the bed, Violet stared at her brother.

Lawrence sat by her bed. "Why are you looking at me like that?" he asked her with curiosity. Violet had been staring at him for a long while. Lawrence felt awkward. He wondered if he had a pimple on his face.

"Brother, why are you going abroad all of a sudden? I just left the hospital. I wanted to spend time with you!" Violet complained. She didn't want her brother to leave so soon. 'When Lawrence is at home, I never feel lonely, even if Daddy and Mommy are busy. He is always there for me. And now he is leaving. Without him here, I'll be left all alone. There would be so many things I'd have to do all by myself, ' she thought to herself, clearly upset.

Lawrence noticed the sad look in his beloved sister's eyes and decided to tell her what he had been hiding.

"Violet, I want to tell you something, but you must promise me that you won't tell anyone else. All right?" Lawrence had a mysterious look in his eyes.

He wanted to keep this a secret between his sister and himself.

"Okay!" Violet nodded energetically. She was happy that her brother was willing to share a secret with her. She promised him she would not tell anyone about it.

"I liked a girl very much, and I thought she liked me too. But some time ago, I accidentally found out that she had been lying to me. She pretended to be innocent in front of me, but in truth, she is not as pure as she appeared. That girl dated me not because she liked me but because she was after our family's money. She wanted our influence so she could achieve her own goals," Lawrence told her sister. He still felt bitter and angry when he thought of how he had stood outside Rebecca's door and heard the truth, and how she had begged for his forgiveness afterward.

"Lawrence, she's such a bad girl!" Violet fumed. She could gauge the obvious sadness in her brother's tone. Lawrence must have been distressed when he found out this girl's true intentions. He must have trusted her with all his heart, but she betrayed him. In Violet's own class, she witnessed Ice and Fire Chapter 630 Farewell At The Airport (Part One)

girls from rich families mock those who came from ordinary households on a regular basis. It always exhausted Violet.

Lawrence sighed upon hearing Violet's comment. "Violet, I did care about that girl very much. So when I got to know the truth, I couldn't control my emotions for a while. I've turned my back on her since then. This school and that classroom began to remind me of her, so..." Lawrence paused for a moment and continued. "So I decided to go abroad. I just want to escape from that place. It's upsetting."

Violet sprang up from the bed and looked at her brother. "Brother, I don't want you to go, but I'm in favor of your decision this time. Just leave this place and the person who made you so upset. Go abroad and study hard. It will take your mind off these things," she told him seriously.

Her words made all kind of feelings well up in his heart. The only person he felt sorry for in all this incident was his beloved sister. Rebecca meant little to him compared to Violet. And he shouldn't have indulged himself to drown the sorrows just because a girl. If so, no harm would have happened to Violet, and she would never have the ugly scars. He wanted to kneel down in front of Violet and beg for her forgiveness. Lawrence felt distressed at the thought of what had happened to his little sister, and how his momentary carelessness almost cost them her life.

"Violet, remember that no matter where I am, I will always love you. You are the apple of my eye. You must remember that," Lawrence told her firmly.

He wondered what kind of promises he could make to his sister right now. Lawrence wasn't confident in his own abilities these days. All he could do was try and make something of himself. He should be stronger than this. Only then would he be able to protect her.

"Well brother, I love you too. Stay reassured, though. I will take good care of Daddy and Mommy. I'll behave well and won't let them worry about me,"

Violet replied as she tightly held on to her brother's hand, feeling his warmth. He was her most reliable support.

"Violet, I believe you." Lawrence smiled. "Okay, it is late now. You should sleep. I will wake you up tomorrow morning."

"Yes, brother." With these two words, Violet laid back on the bed and closed her eyes. She gradually fell asleep.

Lawrence looked at his little sister's face for a long time. He wanted it etched in his mind, so that no matter where he was, he could recall it clearly.

Time passed by and the room fell silent. Lawrence didn't leave until he heard the steady rhythm of Violet's breath, indicating that she had fallen asleep. He tucked her in and left quietly.

In the morning, Lawrence walked into the classroom and sat down on his seat. He glanced at Mike's seat and saw that he had not come in yet.
