Awake For Love: My Coma Bridegroom Chapter 267
Chapter 267
“Nope, lan said calmly
“Really? There’s nothing?” Violette looked at her son, asking repeatedly
“Nope.” Ian’s face showed no emotion.
Violette had to give up
If the child didn’t take it and she kept asking, it would make them feel like the didn’t trust them
Jan look Rita to their room to put away their backpacks.
When they entered the room, Rita whispered. “Bro, why did you lie? We’re not supposed to lie to Mom”
She could hold back from saying anything when Violette wasn’t asking
But when Violette asked, she didn’t dare lie.
“Elijah knows the box is missing. He must be freaking out, lan said coldly. If we return it, he’ll blame us for taking his stuff. If we don’t, he’ll keep worrying”
“Oh… okay then!” Rita compromised.
Between her brother and her deadbeat dad, she would definitely side with her brother.
Originally, the box was under the bed, but two days ago, they took the box out to the yard and buried it under a tree
After learning what was on the paper, he felt that the box was extremely important and couldn’t be left under the bed.
So they moved it, otherwise it would have been discovered.
“What if he wores himself to death?” Rita suddenly became worried. “He’s still our dad!”
lan, “Don’t worry, bad guys don’t die that easily”
Rita finally relaxed.
After dinner, Violette sent Elijah a message: I asked both kids, and they said they didn’t take the box.
She thought Elijah was resting, but he replied instantly. I see.
She continued to text him: You haven’t slept yet?
He didn’t reply to this question
He didn’t know how to answer her.
He hadn’t slept for more than 36 hours.
His psychological defenses were slowly being worn down
He thought desperately about what would happen if the contents of the box were exposed.
So what?At most, he would lose money, friends, and his lover. But he had no lovers.
He had already made enough money for a lifetime, so even if he didn’t make any more money, he wouldn’t have to worry.
As for his friends, he didn’t care about losing them.
At least Makayla wouldn’t leave him.
After coming to terms with the worst–case scenario in his mind, his mood gradually relaxed, and soon, he fell into a deep sleep.
Violette waited for his reply.
But she didn’t get a reply for three days
The next time she heard from him was through a call from Odette Farrar.
“Did you know Elijah’s in the hospital? I don’t know what happened to him, but he’s been on a hunger strike! I never thought such a rational and calm person would do that” Odette sounded shocked.
Upon hearing this news, Violette immediately stood up from her chair.
No wonder her heart had been uneasy for the past three days.
She didn’t expect that the dark red box would be so important to him.
She shouldn’t have believed what he said on the phone about not finding it and that it wouldn’t matter.
If it didn’t matter, he wouldn’t be searching for it all night.
“How is he now?” Violette, feeling anxious, walked to the office door but stopped abruptly.
“He’s in the hospital getting IV fluids!” Odette said, “Ramsey just came back from the hospital. Sarah Warren has been taking care of him there. Violette, do you want to go
see him?”
She did want to go to the hospital to see him, but since Sarah Warren was already taking care of him, she wouldn’t go.
Even if she went, Sarah Warren wouldn’t let her into the room
