Chapter 407
"You better rest up, and if he doesn't let you come back in a week, I'll call the cops again," Mike barked
angrily. "I've got the whole picture now."
Violette asked, "How'd you find out?"
Mike replied, "Joey Lamont spilled the beans. He couldn't believe his boss was that evil, so he did
some snooping."
Violette forced a bitter smile. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Mike continued, "So, his mom knows about the kid's true origins now, right?"
Violette responded, "Yes."
Mike said, "I figured as much. You didn't want to tell him, so now he's got a bee in his bonnet."
Violette again confirmed, "Yes."
Mike burst out, "You're such a goofball! If I were you, I wouldn't take this crap! So what if you told him?
Can he really do anything to Rita and Ian? I don't buy it! I can't believe he'd have the guts to hurt his
own flesh and blood! Those kids haven't done a thing to him!"
Violette said, "I think things are fine the way they are. I don't want to gamble."
Mike said, "Alright, but you better ring me up at least once a day or I'm calling the cops."
Violette replied, "Got it." After hanging up with Mike, she felt a wave of relief wash over her.
The past few days had been like a living nightmare.
Never-ending nightmares, one after the other.
About an hour later, the nanny came to give her a bath.
The nanny said, "Ms. Dennis, Mr. Bourne got you some new clothes." She showed Violette the new
clothes, "All designer brands! He even told me to wash them first."
Violette didn't react and tried to get up from the bed.
The nanny asked, "Ms. Dennis, do you want to take a bath? Mr. Bourne asked me to give you a
sponge bath. You can just stay in bed, and I'll..."
Violette stopped her, "No need, I can bathe myself. Can you get me a cane?"
The nanny agreed, "Sure, I'll go look for one," and quickly left the room.
When she returned, she didn't bring a cane but instead brought Elijah.
The nanny stood by his side, awkwardly explaining to Violette, "Ms. Dennis, the doctor says it's better if
you stay in bed. Walking around might strain your wound and slow down your recovery..."
The nanny probably had no idea that Violette was also a doctor.
But under Elijah's pressure, Violette reluctantly lay back down.
Immediately, the nanny fetched warm water and a towel and began to sponge bath her.
After the bath, the nanny offered, "Ms. Dennis, I made some pork rib soup. Would you like to try
some?"
Violette responded, "Bring it up quietly, don't let him see."
She didn't want Elijah feeding her again.
Not because Elijah was bad at it, but she just didn't want to see him.
The nanny agreed, "Okay, there are a lot of people in the house tonight, he probably won't notice."
Violette asked, "More guests?"
Violette didn't ask any more questions.
After finishing the soup, she fell asleep.
Each time she was woken up by the noise, she was puzzled.
Hadn't his mother just passed away? Updated at Draмаnоvеls.cоm
Was he celebrating his mother's death, or drowning his sorrows in booze and beautiful women?
After three days of bed rest, the pain in her leg was less noticeable.
That night, she was woken up once again.
She opened her eyes to a dimly lit room and heard the sound of the door being pushed open.
She immediately looked towards the door - a tall figure, familiar yet strange!
He staggered in, reeking of alcohol!
