Chapter 170
About twenty minutes later—
"Mr. Bourne, I just contacted Mercy Hospital, and they told me that their surveillance system is under
maintenance today, so there's no footage."
Hearing his subordinate's answer, Elijah frowned.
Was this a coincidence? Was there really no footage, or did someone purposely not want him to see it?
"Delete all news and pictures about this incident on the internet!" Elijah ordered.
"Alright, Mr. Bourne, I'll get right on it."
About an hour later, all information about Elijah's spending big bucks to find someone, as well as
Makayla's photos, had been removed from the internet.
Violette was sleeping soundly, and if it weren't for her phone suddenly ringing, she definitely wouldn't
have woken up.
Odette was frantically calling her, and her phone rang for over a minute before she picked it up.
"Hello..." As soon as she spoke, she yawned.
"Violette! Are you still sleeping? It's only seven in the evening, are you taking a nap?" Odette's sharp
voice came through the phone.
Violette rubbed her groggy eyes and looked out the window.
"Odette, do you need something? If not, I'm going back to sleep. I'm so tired." Violette hugged her
pillow, her voice sounding lazy.
"Didn't you sleep last night? What were you doing?! Weren't we supposed to go out for a big meal to
celebrate your divorce? I've already booked the restaurant, and if you don't come, I'm gonna pack up
all this food and bring it to your house! Send me your address!" Odette insisted.
"No... just send me the restaurant's address, and I'll go freshen up up and head over." Violette
struggled to get out of bed.
"Weren't you just saying how tired you are? Let me pack up the food and bring it to you instead! I've
stolen a good bottle of wine from my dad's cellar. I'll bring the wine over, and we can drink it next time
we meet." Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Violette immediately woke up.
If Odette's boyfriend wasn't Ramsey, she wouldn't be so afraid of Odette finding out about the kids.
"Odette! I'm not tired anymore! Where are you now? Send me your location, and I'll be right there!"
"Okay! Is your mom staying with you? Invite her to join us for dinner!"
"No need! She's already eaten."
After hanging up, Violette got out of bed, combed her messy hair into a ponytail, and picked out a long
dress from her wardrobe.
After changing, she came out of her room.
The living room lights were off.
They were actually not home!
She found her phone and made a video call to her mother.
Albina answered, "Violette, are you awake? I left some food for you in the kitchen."
"Odette invited me out for dinner, so I won't be eating at home. Mom, where are you guys?" Violette
walked to the entrance, grabbed a bag, and headed out.
"We're at the park. We received an international package today. Inside was a drone. The kids insisted
on coming out to play with it." Albina said, turning the camera towards the sky.
A colorful drone was being controlled by Ian!
Nearby, many children were flying kites.
Violette smiled, "You guys have fun! I'm heading out."
About half an hour later, she arrived at the restaurant Odette had booked.
It was a luxurious restaurant, and t
here was a handsome man playing the piano on stage.
"Odette, did you come here alone?" Violette looked at Odette and joked, "I thought you'd bring your
family along!"
