"Just friends," Adrian said.
"Dr. Mitchel has so many female students, and you aren’t that close to Sarah, are you?" Elijah joked.
"Do you have a crush on Violette?"
Adrian felt his strong hostility.
"Can't Violette start a new relationship?" Adrian asked with a smile. "Mr. Bourne, you're with Sarah, has
Violette ever said anything?" NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Elijah replied coldly, "There's one thing I find strange. After Dr. Mitchel passed away, I asked you to find
out who that student he mentioned was, but you only gave me a list. Why didn't you just tell me it was
Sarah? Sarah said she knows you. You should know her too, right?"
Adrian suddenly felt that Elijah was a bit smart.
"Of course I know her. But she graduated years ago, and I can't say for sure how good her medical
skills are now. So I gave you the list and let you find her yourself."
Elijah wasn't fooled by his answer.
"Didn't Dr. Mitchel ever mention her to you? Dr. Mitchel didn't dare to operate on Makayla, but he said
he had a student who could. So Dr. Mitchel must be very satisfied with this student... There's no way he
never mentioned such a talented student to you."
Adrian was at a loss for words. In his panic, he took a sip of water from his cup.
"Adrian, I think you deliberately didn't tell me," Elijah saw his guilty conscience. "Is it because of
Violette that you deceived me?"
"It has nothing to do with Violette," Adrian explained immediately. "Dr. Mitchel didn't tell me everything.
He never mentioned anything about the matter you entrusted to him. So I had no idea about what was
going on between you two. I'm a cautious person by nature, even if I knew Sarah was amazing, I
wouldn't dare to tell you 'she's the one you're looking for.'"
Elijah looked at him silently.
"Like how I like Violette, but I won't say it," Adrian confessed his feelings to increase credibility.
"Because I know she only sees me as a big brother."
The coldness in Elijah's eyes disappeared in an instant.
"It's late, you should go back! She'll contact you guys when she wakes up," Elijah dismissed him.
After Adrian left, Elijah strode towards the master bedroom.
The door was open, and Makayla was sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at Violette.
Elijah walked up to Makayla and looked into her innocent, curious eyes.
"Makayla, do you like her?" Elijah asked softly.
Makayla would instinctively hide from strangers, even when she saw Sarah. But she came to see
Violette on her own initiative.
"Yeah, I like her!" Makayla thought of the gentle care she received when she had a fever that day, and
her heart felt warm.
"Why do you like her?" Elijah glanced at Violette and guessed, "Is it because she's beautiful?"
"Brother, she's prettier than Dr. Sarah," Makayla grabbed Elijah's hand and looked at him earnestly.
"Don't you think?"
Elijah gave a bitter smile, "You're right."
"Elijah, why aren't you with Violette?" Makayla mumbled softly.
It was as if Elijah was some kind of a fool.
She knew Violette was prettier than Sarah, and wasn’t he also aware of that? The question made
Elijah's heart ache.
Makayla had been recovering exceptionally well since her last surgery. If she continued treatment, he
believed she would soon be able to live a normal life. So, he couldn't break up with Sarah before
finding a doctor who could continue treating Makayla.
"Makayla, this is between her and me. All you need to do is be happy every day," Elijah stroked her soft
hair, hiding his bitterness deep within.
"Brother, are you happy?" Makayla looked up at her brother's handsome face, her eyebrows slightly
furrowed. "You don't seem happy at all."
Violette faintly heard the conversation. She wanted to open her eyes and see who was talking next to
her.
