"Hate you?" Violet was stunned.
Stanley hated the two kids?
Why?
If she had done something to upset him, he could be mad at her. Why he had a problem with two kids?
Violet felt uncomfortable in her heart, while having a vague feeling of inexplicable unease.
She stroked both of her children's heads and forced a smile, "It's okay, Daddy's probably too tired, so
he is upset. He doesn't hate you."
"Really?" Arya asked happily.
Violet nodded, "Of course, Daddy likes you."
Arya chuckled.
Only Calvin pursed his lips and didn't believe Violet's words.
He really felt that Daddy didn't like him and Arya.
Looking at her son's frowning, Violet knew what was on his mind.
Calvin had been smart since he was a kid, and she certainly didn't think he'd misread or lied.
So, Stanley might actually have some issues with the two kids.
"Well, let's eat first." Violet took a child's hand in one hand and walked towards the dining room.
No matter what, she would ask Stanley what he was really angry about.
When she arrived at the dining room, Violet saw Ivy talking to Stanley as soon as she entered.
It was not clear what the two said, but Ivy smiled happily, and Stanley's gloomy and cold face looked
better.
Of course that was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that Ivy was sitting in
her seat!
It wasn't like Ivy hadn't sat in her seat before, and even when Ivy said that she had accidentally sat in
the wrong seat or hadn't gotten up, Stanley would tell Ivy to sit back in the seat she was supposed to.
But this time, Stanley didn't do that, but joked with Ivy.
This scene caused Violet's eyes to darken.
"Miss Hunt, you're here." Ivy saw Violet through the corner of her eyes. She had suspicion, but she
pretended not to see anything and greeted Violet with a soft smile.
Stanley stopped talking to Ivy, picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip, not even looking at
Violet and the two kids.
Seeing this scene, Violet's heart went cool.
Arya didn't feel anything wrong, but Calvin noticed that Stanley's attitude towards the three of them had
really changed.
Usually, Daddy would get up and help Mommy sat on the chair, and carry him and Arya to the chairs.
But this time, Daddy didn't do anything as if he didn't see them.
So again, it validated that Daddy hated them.
Violet took a deep breath and pretended not to care about Stanley's indifference, pulling the two
children over, "Miss Ellis, you're sitting in the wrong seat."
She could care less about Stanley's attitude, but she did not want to put up with Ivy?
Ivy didn't expect Violet to say so bluntly that she was sitting on the wrong seat, and had thought that
Violet would be sad because of Stanley's indifference.
Unexpectedly, she had underestimated Violet.
Ivy lowered her eyes, "Miss Hunt, why don't let me sit here? It's troublesome to change the seats."
"No, that's the hostess's place, since you are a guest, I think it's better to observe the guest's etiquette,
otherwise people will say you have not been educated well, what do you think?" Violet looked at her
with indifferent attitude, but in an imposing manner.
Arya grunted, "Yes, that's my mommy's seat, no one else can sit there without her permission."
Calvin nodded.
Ivy's face was suddenly pale as she bit her lips and looked at Stanley, "Stanley, what do you think ......"
"Sit back in your seat, Ivy!" Stanley put down his coffee cup and said in a clear, cold voice.
A hint of disbelief flashed in Ivy's eyes, but she regained her natural state and reluctantly smiled as she
stood up, "Ok, I'll sit back."
With that, she walked around the end of the table and went back to her own seat, with anger.
When Stanley came down just now, she could see that Stanley's attitude towards Violet was much
colder than when he came back, so she thought that he might not defend Violet and boldly sat in
Violet's seat.
She didn't expect that even though Stanley had hatred for Violet in his heart and his attitude was even
colder, he would still defend Violet. Did he love Violet that much and he could ignore his hatred to her?
With such a thought, Ivy's eyes became shady and jealous when she looked at Violet again.
Violet noticed it and narrowed her eyes, finding it quite funny.
She'd thought that Ivy would really give up on Stanley after she and Henry got together.
She was already with Henry and still wanted Stanley, wasn't she afraid that Henry would know about it?
Without exposing Ivy, Violet carried the two children to the chairs, and Bella served the food.
At the dinner table, several people did not speak, and the large dining room was extraordinarily silent
and depressing.
Arya did try to open her mouth, but in the end, she didn't say anything because of the depression.
After eating, Stanley went to the study for a meeting.
Ivy went to the piano and played it.
The piano piece was very upbeat and showed that she was in a very good mood at the moment.
Violet knew why Ivy was in a good mood. She must have been so happy to see that she and Stanley
didn't get along with each other.
Violet did not want to listen to Ivy play the piano and simply went upstairs to see what the two kids were
doing.
The two kids were sitting on the carpet playing with blocks in the room.
"Calvin, Arya." Violet walked over and sat down on the carpet as well.
Arya crawled into her arms, two short arms tightly wrapped around her neck, and said in an aggrieved
voice, "Mommy, Daddy really doesn't like me anymore. After dinner, I wanted Daddy to tie my hair, but
he ignored me."
That was the first time Stanley ignored her and treated her so coldly.
In that moment, she froze and didn't react for a long time.
Violet listened to her daughter's complaints with an unpleasant and aggravated mood.
Stanley didn't just ignore her daughter, but also ignored her.
Violet still smiled and comforted her daughter, "Didn't I tell you before dinner that Daddy was in a bad
mood?"
"So when is Daddy going to be in a good mood?" Arya looked at her.
Violet was caught up in the question, her lips moving, unable to answer.
When Calvin finished building his small house, he opened his mouth, "Soon."
"Really?" Arya's eyes lit up.
Calvin nodded affirmatively, "Yes, Mommy will go coax Daddy, right, Mommy?"
Violet scratched his nose in amusement, "Yes."
Calvin raised his chin in triumph, "Mommy will definitely not let Daddy stay like this."
"Yeah." Violet lowered her head and rubbed the two children's foreheads.
As Calvin said, she would go coax Stanley and would have a talk with him.
After all, they were family, and this state could not go on forever.
Violet played with the two children for about two hours. When she thought Stanley should have finished
his work, she urged the two children to sleep.
The two children crawled obediently into bed, covered with the covers and closed their eyes.
Violet gave each of the two children a kiss on the cheek, turned off the light and went out.
As soon as she went out, she saw Stanley come over from the study.
