Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 467

"Have you had dinner?"

"Yeah! I ate with Ian at the hotel."

"You seem to really like Ian." Elijah remembered how she swapped seats with Mike at noon. In the past, she would have stuck with him no matter what. But today, she seemed to prefer sitting next to Ian.

"I like both Ian and Rita." Makayla had a strong hunch that she was not only Ian's aunt but possibly Rita's as well. Their relationship mirrored the one she had with her brother.

Elijah couldn't help reminiscing about the time he nearly choked Ian Dennis to death at the forest villa. During their meeting at noon, Ian wouldn't look at him, as if intentionally avoiding him.

He was sure the kid was traumatized by him. Thinking back, he felt guilty. He never used to feel guilty about his actions, as he was not one to pick fights. If Ian hadn't provoked him, he wouldn't have lost control. But now, he was reflecting. Ian was wrong, but so was he.

At dinner, Makayla came over with her ID. "Bro, why is our last name different? Didn't you say we were siblings?" Makayla had just sent Ian a picture of her ID, who pointed out this discrepancy.

Elijah asked, "You don't like 'Makayla Linley'?"

Makayla responded, "I do! But I want the same last name as you."

Elijah said, "Makayla, this last name isn't worthy of you. Just be Makayla Linley, it sounds lovely."

Makayla paused for a few seconds, then nodded, "I'll take your word for it."

She went back to her room and explained to Ian. Ian checked her identity and found no relation to Elijah.

"There's another way to prove it." Ian told Makayla another method.
