Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom

Chapter 233

"What have you been up to lately?" He stared at her, his gaze burning.

Violette finished treating his wound and turned to put away the medical kit.

Her answer was nonchalant: "Busy with work stuff."

"You're lying. If you're busy with work, why aren't you at the company?" Elijah sat up straight and Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

grabbed her arm, "You've been giving me a weird vibe lately. I don't get you."

Violette: "What do you want to understand about me? Elijah, I'm grateful that you saved me last night,

and I can treat you to a meal..."

Elijah let go of her arm, surprised: "I didn't save you for your gratitude. Take your daughter and go! And

that bastard son of yours, he attacked my network at my doorstep today. If you don't discipline him, I

won't mind teaching him a lesson!"

Violette apologized awkwardly: "I'm sorry. I'll tell him not to do that when I get home. I promise it won't

happen again."

Violette put the medical kit back in its place and picked up Rita, ready to leave.

"Violette!" Elijah strode to her and handed her a box, "Happy birthday."

Violette looked down at the box he handed her, not knowing what was inside, but sensing it was

valuable.

"Elijah, thank you..."

'For your blessings, but I don't need the gift.'

She didn't have time to say that, b

ecause Rita had already accepted the gift.

Violette was speechless.

Elijah secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she would refuse.

"Mom, let's go home! I miss my brother and grandma so much..." Rita snuggled up to Violette's

shoulder, her voice soft and cajoling.

"Alright, we'll go home right away." Violette looked up at Elijah, her thoughts in disarray, "Goodbye."

Elijah watched them leave.

If her children could be as well-behaved in front of him as they were in front of her, he might consider

them as his own.

Silverleaf Ridge.

Albina had been waiting anxiously for the two children and Violette to return.

"Violette, don't drive when you're tired anymore! It's too dangerous!" Albina said with red eyes.

"Mom, I know. It smells so good! Did you make my favorite dish?" Violette headed for the kitchen.

Mike was also hungry, so he washed his hands and sat down in the dining room.

Rita, on the other hand, took her brother to their room.

"Brother, do you know how awesome I was today?" Rita said excitedly, "I got something from a bad

man."

Rita put her backpack down, unzipped it, and pulled out a dark red box.

Ian looked at the box, puzzled: "What is this?"

Rita shook her head: "I don't know! I saw it on his bookshelf. I thought the box was pretty, so I took it."

Ian looked at Rita's little face and said seriously, "Rita, you can't just take other people's things. How is

that different from stealing?"

Rita lowered her head, her mouth pouting, feeling wronged.

She wouldn't just take other people's things; s

he only took her dad's things.

How she wished Elijah wasn't a bad man, so she could have a dad!

"I'm not blaming you." Ian suddenly changed his mind and his tone, "You can take anything from Elijah.

Just don't get caught."

Rita immediately smiled happily: "Ian, don't tell Mom. If she finds out, she'll definitely scold me."

"Okay. Put your stuff away first. Let's go eat."

"Okay! Brother, I was so scared today all by myself. You all left, how could you forget about me?" Rita

hid the box under the bed and chattered, "Luckily I was brave. If I wasn't, I would have been scared to

death there."

Ian held Rita's little hand and said guiltily, "Brother won't forget about you next time."

"Yeah!" Rita was instantly appeased, "Brother, the bad dad gave Mom a gift. Do you think he still loves

Mom?"
