In a surprising twist, Violet unintentionally pushed Carver away, leading to a six-week break. When Carver returned in Chicago Fire season 13, he was dating Tori (Holly Hinchcliff). The tension escalated when Violet tried to reconnect with Carver, only to discover that Tori had been reading and deleting his messages. It was a painful period, but things started to shift when Tori broke up with Carver and left Chicago, giving hope that the Firehouse 51 couple might have a second chance.

However, a potential new complication arises with the return of Wendy Seager (Andy Allo). Seager, who had a brief fling with Carver before Violet entered the picture, could stir things up again. Although Seager’s main focus had been on Kelly Severide (Taylor Kinney) in the past, she always had some unresolved tension with Carver. Her return, possibly involving an arson investigation, could reignite feelings between her and Carver. This, in turn, might spark jealousy or lingering feelings in Violet, who is currently in a relationship with Flynn (Steven Strait). While Violet seems content with Flynn, there’s still a palpable chemistry between her and Carver, suggesting that a little nudge could bring them back together. Stella Kidd (Miranda Rae Mayo) might play a key role in pushing them toward reconciliation.

As for Wendy Seager, her absence in the last two seasons of Chicago Fire is easily explained by her commitments to Upload, where she stars as a lead character. With filming for Upload taking place in Vancouver and Chicago Fire in Chicago, scheduling conflicts made it difficult for her to return. However, Seager’s return isn’t off the table, as the show’s creators have left the door open for her to reappear. Should she return, it could be through an OFI investigation, potentially bringing her to Firehouse 51 and into contact with Carver once more. If this happens, it’s likely to unfold in Chicago Fire season 14, if not later.

This potential reunion between Carver and Violet could be complicated by Wendy’s involvement, but it remains clear that there’s unfinished business between the two. With Carver’s romantic life upended and Violet still harboring feelings for him, their story might not be over just yet, especially if external forces like Wendy start to influence their relationship dynamics. Only time will tell if they can navigate their past issues and find their way back to each other.
