Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom

Chapter 617

"Let's just drop it," Adrian chuckled. "It's getting late, I need to drive Makayla home. Let's catch up some other time."

Violette glanced at the time and nodded. "You guys go ahead! I'll hang around for a bit."

Having overslept in the afternoon, Violette was quite awake now. With the kids out of the house, it would be boring to return home. She'd rather spend some more time out.

Violette had arranged tonight's dinner. She brought them gifts from her trip to B Country.

After they left, she pulled out her phone from her bag and saw a message from Mike. [He's gone! You can come home now!]

Violette replied, [I didn't go out just to avoid him. Could you stop assuming I'm that weak?]

Mike, [That's not what I meant! I just want you home safe. It's getting late, and it's not safe out there!]

Violette, [Our country is perfectly safe. If you're so free, why don't you go on a date?]

Mike, [I haven't seen you in a few days. I just want to spend some time with you!]

Violette, [I'll be home soon.]

After sending the message, she picked up her bag and left the restaurant.

The Bourne Residence.

When Adrian dropped Makayla off, Elijah had just gotten home. After acknowledging Adrian with a nod, Elijah led Makayla into the living room.

Makayla wore a beautiful bracelet on her wrist, which shone under the light. Elijah hadn’t seen it before and asked, “Makayla, is this a new bracelet you bought today? Or did Adrian give it to you?”

Makayla blurted out, “Violette gave it to me tonight. I love it!”

Elijah’s face darkened instantly. “You spent the evening with her?”

Realizing her slip, Makayla quickly covered her mouth, her eyes filled with fear.

“Makayla, it’s okay. I’m not angry.” Elijah quickly composed himself, took her hand, and examined the bracelet. “This bracelet is beautiful. Go rest now.”

Makayla gripped his hand, puzzled. “Elijah, did you upset Violette again? Can you stop making her angry? Violette is so nice, and I really like her.” She paused, then added, “Adrian never makes Violette upset. That’s why she likes hanging out with him.”

Veins bulged on Elijah’s forehead.

Earlier that evening, he had called Adrian to ask if Violette was with him. Adrian had said no. Any sympathy he had for Adrian evaporated that night.

The next morning, Elijah drove to Violette’s place. The mansion’s gates were shut tight, and the entrance was deserted, as if no one lived there.

Which was true at that moment.

Half an hour earlier, Mike and Violette had driven to Z City. Today was Rita's last day of shooting. After the afternoon session, they could wrap up. They planned to pick Rita up.

At five in the afternoon, they returned to Lavender Lane.

As the car slowly approached the mansion, Elijah's tall figure came into view. Violette hadn't expected him to be waiting at her doorstep.

When did he get here? How long had he been waiting?This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
