Chapter 151
Elijah: "Appreciate the concern, but I don't need it."
Melinda awkwardly turned around and left.
The phone rang, breaking the silence of the room.
Elijah picked up, saw Violette's name, and felt a headache.
It's nearly midnight.
He was supposed to meet Violette this morning, a date they set up last night.
He got a call from Melinda while he was getting ready to leave and wholly flaked on the meeting.
He picked up the phone: "Sorry, I have something to do today and I don't have time to make an
appointment. I will entrust a lawyer to handle our divorce."
Violette paused, then calmly said, "Alright. You can't divorce on a weekend. Have your lawyer get in
touch with me on Monday."
Elijah: "Sure."
Seems like the call can end now.
"I can sell you the Dennis Group building," He's lost his taste for revenge against Violette.
All he wants now is for his sister, Makayla, to get better.
Makayla was his twin sister. But Makayla had a mental disability.
Their father was a very strict person, hard on his kids.
He couldn't bear to have an unhealthy child, He didn't want it to be a laughing stock for the Bourne
family.
So Makayla's birth was a disaster.
No one knew the Bourne family had a child named Makayla.
Elijah is haunted by memories of his father beating Makayla when drunk.
Makayla has suffered so much.
She almost died once.
Their mother hid Makayla away, which saved her from their father's beatings.
Elijah always felt deeply for his sister. His heart ached for her.
He would spare no expense for her health.
He wished so much that she could one day lead a normal life. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
With advancements in medicine, he's been searching for top doctors globally, hoping to find a cure for
his sister.
And then, Sarah showed up, and he saw hope.
Violette felt devastated.
For over four years, Elijah refused to sign the divorce papers unless they met face to face.
But now, he's handing it over to his lawyer.
She thought it's his way of getting back at her!
But then, he agreed to sell her the Dennis Group building without making a fuss or jacking up the price.
So, it's not revenge. He doesn't care. About her, about everything.
Violette walked out of the coffee bookstore.
The scorching sun blinded her.
She got into the car, and the temperature inside was high.
But she didn‘t notice the heat.
She sat, dazed and empty-headed.
She's probably erasing memories of Elijah.
Her phone rang.
She came back to herself.
She took a deep breath, composed herself, and answered the phone: "Adrian, what's up?"
"Violette, remember Sarah?" Adrian asked with a chuckle, "Dr. Mitchel chose you over her to be his
student. Because Sarah is not as good as you."
Violette blushed: "Why to bring that up? I barely know her."
"Elijah went to Sarah. He thought the person Dr. Mitchel was talking about was Sarah." Adrian laughed.
"Sarah can't save the person he wants to save."
