Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 267

"Nope," Ian 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 she didn't trust them.

Ian took 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," Ian 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 worries himself to death?" Rita suddenly became worried. "He's still our dad!"

Ian, "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.
