Chapter 178
Violette massaged her temples with her fingers.
She thought she wouldn't care about him after the divorce, b
ut why did it still hurt so much?
He cared so much about Makayla, why couldn't he be faithful to her?
She soon figured it out.
It wasn't about who he was with, it was about him being such a jerk.
Admitting that the man she once loved was a jerk was painful. It made her question her own judgment.
"Violette, are you okay?" Odette asked worriedly. "If I had known, I wouldn't have told you... But even if
I didn't tell you, you would have found out eventually."
"I'm fine." Violette picked up her water glass and took a sip. "It's his choice. As long as he's happy."
"Ramsey said it was Sarah's idea. Her treatment for Makayla seemed to be working well. Elijah wanted
to reward her, but she didn't want money."
"No need to explain," Violette felt a wave of nausea. "If he didn't want to, no one could have forced
him."
"I heard that Makayla's still need more treatment... Elijah wants Sarah to continue treating Makayla, so
he agreed to Sarah's request." Odette was just stating the facts, but she felt like she was still defending
him.
Violette sneered, "That's great. Sarah doesn't mind his fickleness, so they are all getting what they
want."
Odette agreed, "Yeah! Makayla has moved into the Bourne Mansion. It feels weird. But as long as they
don't find it weird, it's fine. Violette, forget about this jerk! I won't bring him up anymore."
"Okay, I've been busy with work lately, I'll treat you to a meal when I'm done."
"Sounds good!"
...
After hanging up the phone, Violette held her water glass and fell into deep thought.
She didn't know Sarah well, but after this incident, she found Sarah to be quite bold.
The surgery on Makayla wasn't performed by her, yet she dared to use it as a condition to make Elijah
her boyfriend.
Wasn't she afraid Elijah would find out the truth?
But whether Elijah knew the truth or not, it didn't matter to Violette anymore.
Sarah liked him; Violette didn't care.
His money, himself, she didn't want any of it.
She just wanted to live a good life with her two children,
so she wouldn't expose Sarah's lie.
That night.
Violette dragged her tired body home.
The TV in the living room was on.
Rita ran up to Violette, "Mom! You're back! Are you tired?"
Violette shook her head, "Mom's not tired. Rita, are you tired from school?"
"If mom's not tired, Rita is definitely not tired!" Rita showed a sweet smile and pulled Violette to sit on
the couch.
After Violette sat down, she saw the financial news playing on the TV.
Just then, Elijah's face appeared on the screen.
"Rita, did you turn on the TV?" Violette was puzzled as to why her daughter would be watching a
financial channel. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Rita glanced at Ian, "Ian turned it on. I changed the channel."
Because she saw the financial channel broadcasting news about Elijah, she purposely watched this
program.
"I see..." Violette held her daughter with one arm and looked towards Ian, "Ian, come over. Mom has
something to tell you both."
Ian was playing with puzzles. Hearing his mom's words, he immediately came over.
After Ian came over, Violette pointed to Elijah's handsome face on the TV and told her children,
"Remember this man's face. If you accidentally bump into him, you must avoid him."
Rita was confused, "Mom, why?"
Violette thought for a moment and said, "If he finds you, he might... strangle you."
This was something he had once said.
He had said that even if she gave birth to their children, he would strangle them.
Now, he knew that she had two children.
If he didn't continue to investigate, that would be the best.
She was just worried that he would find out the two children were his.
Rita's little face immediately scrunched up.
She picked up the remote control and turned off the TV.
Rita originally thought Elijah was quite handsome and had watched him for a few more seconds, but
she didn't expect him to be a bad guy!
