บท 487: I've Made My Choice

Violet wasn't the liveliest person Jeremy had ever met—he wasn't terribly fond of lively people anyway—but he had never seen her like this. He had thought they were the same; she wasn't supposed to accept defeat so easily.

He hadn't thought he would fall for a weak, ordinary woman but that was how she was acting right now. She really needed to pull herself together. Knee surgery wasn't the end of the world! She would be able to dance again if she put her mind to it.

Everyone told him he would never make it out of his bad neighborhood back in D.C. but here he was on track to become the CEO of one of the most respected and well-known businesses in the world.

Jeremy hadn't given up even when no one believed in him. How could his girlfriend give up on herself so quickly when there was still hope?

"It'll be okay, Violet. Trust in your doctor; he went to a lot of school to be able to help people like you," he said in his most comforting tone.
