Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel 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.

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 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..."
