This caused a misunderstanding and she felt a tad sorry, but she didn't feel like clearing things up.
"Joey, go tell your boss that Violette is now with Kylee!" Mike hoped Elijah would finally give up and quit bugging Violette.
Upon hearing Mike's words, Violette immediately snatched the headphones from his ears.
"Joey, don't listen to his nonsense." She chimed in, "Kylee and I are just business partners. Also, that sweater is something your boss gave back to me, I'll wear it whenever I feel like it. Even if I get into a new relationships in the future, I can still wear it on dates."
Joey was stunned. Mike had actually lied to him about their relationship, and now he felt extremely awkward.
"Ms. Dennis, it's your clothing, so wear it if you want to. I was just chatting with Mike, no other intentions... I know now that my boss isn't perfect and has his flaws. I'll remind myself in the future." Joey explained.
"Hmm... is he at work today? Shouldn't he be resting at home?" Violette said calmly.
Joey: "He never listens to his doctor. But Brandon has already taken him home."
"Hmm."
Their conversation ended there, both not knowing what else to chat about.
Joey suddenly said, "I hope your sales skyrocket and you company would lead in the industry."
Mike took back his headphones, ending the awkward conversation.
"Violette, you're really good at knitting! Can you knit me a sweater when you have time?" Mike joked.
Violette gave him a glare.
Mike laughed and changed the subject: "Elijah is really something, huh? He still can't get you off his mind. I guess your stab wasn't deep enough."
Violette corrected him, "I wasn't the one who stabbed him."
"Well... I'm starting to think there might be something wrong with his mind."
