Violette said casually, "I didn't directly respond to him."
"You're such a tease. You're leading him on, aren't you? You know he likes you, but you won't be straight with him." Odette said.
Violette shook her head, "I think he's making a fuss over nothing. I don't want to deal with him."
"Ah, makes sense. You two aren't back together. Wait, do you guys have a chance of getting back?" Odette grabbed Violette's arm, staring at her wind-swept hair.
"How can we get back together?" Violette brushed the hair out of her face, "He hasn't explained the situation with Makayla. Besides, the thought of his fling with Sarah makes me sick. I'd rather be single for life than get back with him."
"That's really messed up. Even if he didn't like Sarah, he shouldn't have had a child with her!" Odette tutted, "That's why I call him a jerk. Acting all heartbroken over you, pfft!"
Violette chuckled, "I used to get so mad when I thought of him, but today, not so much. Another funny thing. He said he's going to break up my relationships so I'd never get married."
Odette was speechless for a few seconds. After she grasped what Violette was saying, she burst into laughter.
"Are you talking about the same Elijah I know?" Odette was laughing so hard, "If I tell my husband, he'd never believe it!"
"Maybe it's because he was drinking tonight." Violette thought it felt like a dream.
He was sometimes a pain and ridiculous, but not this immature.
"Just one beer. He couldn't have gotten that drunk?" Odette took a deep breath, "He's just infatuated with you, but he can't have you, so he doesn't want you to marry anyone else. You better pray you don't find your true love, otherwise, this could get messy."
