Chapter 483
The moment he saw him, Ian felt like his blood had frozen over. His mom had always warned him to
steer clear. Ian turned on his heel and bolted instantly.
"Ian!" Elijah shouted as he noticed Ian avoiding him like the plague.
Ian's steps slowed, but he didn't stop. Elijah had to pick up his pace to catch up.
"Ian, why are you here alone? Where's Makayla?" He blocked Ian's way.
"Stay away from me!" Ian didn't want to speak or even look at him, "Remember you owe me a wish? I
want it granted now - stay away from me forever!"
Elijah, seeing his resistance, felt a surge of frustration. He didn't want their relationship to sour like this!
Their feud was taking a toll on his relationship with Violette. If he hadn't almost harmed Ian back then,
Violette wouldn't have banned him from her house.
"I apologize." Elijah said, "I'm sorry."
Ian, hearing his apology, was flabbergasted. How could this arrogant guy admit his mistake?
"I don't accept it!" Ian retorted coldly.
After their conversation, Ian grabbed his backpack and headed for the park exit. Elijah, worried about
his safety, followed him, "I'll walk you home."
"No!" Ian rejected him sternly.
But Elijah scooped him up anyway, "I'm taking you home! I'll leave after dropping you off, even if you're
mad!"
The Dennis Group.
The door to Violette's office was pushed open. Mike walked in and pulled her from behind her desk.
"What's going on?" She was a bit taken aback.
"Shit hit the fan!" Mike declared seriously, "I wouldn't have known that Ian secretly participated in the
National Children's Programming Contest if I hadn't seen the news! He won, but there was a ruckus!" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Violette furrowed her brows, "What ruckus? Is Ian okay? Where is he?"
"Elijah took him home!" Mike said.
"What does this have to do with Elijah?!" Violette asked.
"Makayla took Ian to the competition." Mike explained, "She got Ian past the preliminaries straight to
the finals! Other contestants questioned him after the competition, so things got messy."
Violette was shocked, "Makayla's that capable now?"
Violette felt relieved but worried simultaneously, "Is Ian okay?"
"He should be, but he really despises Elijah. I can't imagine what it's like with them together now." Mike
said.
Cold sweat broke out on Violette's back.
Silverleaf Ridge.
After being taken home, Ian locked himself in his room.
He struggled not to think too much. Was this quirky little guy really Violette's adopted child? Was Ian
really not his son?
