Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 319

"Woke up?" Elijah mocked.

Violette lay flat on the bed, rubbing her aching temples with her fingers: "Wasn't it your call that woke me up? What do you want from me?"

"Violette, I saw you driving out of the neighborhood at 10:30 last night. What were you up to so late?" he asked directly.

At this, she raised her leg and kicked Mike at the end of the bed, giving him a meaningful look. Then she answered Elijah's question.

"Last night Mike got drunk outside, and the bar owner called me to go pay the bill, so I drove to find him... Who knew he'd be wasted and going crazy? I was afraid he'd wake the kids if I brought him home, so I found a nearby hotel and got a room... What's the matter? Want to join him next time?"

Elijah frowned. How was her answer different from what he had imagined?

"Got any more questions?" she yawned, "I didn't sleep at all last night because of this jerk Mike... I'm so tired. If you don't have anything else, hang up!"

As she was about to hang up, she remembered something and asked, "By the way, did you find your Makayla?"

This last sentence made Elijah give up. He never thought that Makayla wasn't sent to the hospital by her.

She had left the neighborhood in her car last night to go to the bar. And she had gotten a room with Mike in a hotel, sleeping until now!

"Yeah," Elijah said and hung up.

Violette saw the call disconnected and dropped her pretense. She handed the phone back to Mike.

Mike looked shocked: "Why did you lie?! And Makayla... She's lost again?!"

Violette closed her eyes, her tone calm: "Yeah! How come she's so good at hiding? Why did she have to hide in my closet? If she hid in your closet or my mom's, she would be dead by now."

When Violette found her last night, her face was pale, and her breathing was weak. If she had found her a little later, she would have died.

Although she was mentally challenged, she was at least lucky. Twice she got lost, both times ending up at Violette's house.
