Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 586

She watched the hurt and anger etched onto his face, suddenly at a loss for words. He was convinced, she and Kylee were more than just friends.

She would also misunderstand if she thought in his shoes. Under what circumstances would a woman accept a man’s credit card? Certainly, it would be when they were in a very intimate relationship, to the point of being inseparable. Even during the sweetest phase of her relationship with Elijah, she had never accepted his credit cards.

Her train of thoughts halted abruptly as she noticed the brimming tears in his eyes. She felt as if someone was strangling her, and she was struggling for breath, desperately trying to defend herself. “Elijah... he only left his card with me for safekeeping... I never spent his money...”

“Is that so?” He clenched the card tightly in his hand. “In that case, I’ll return it to him for you.”

After saying that, he stood up, propping the fallen clothes rack back up.

He opened the door and was greeted by the faces of Mike and the two kids. His expression was icy as he passed them without a word. Then he strode downstairs.

“Mom! Did he bully you?” Rita rushed into the room, looking up at her mother’s face.

Violette forced a smile, hanging her bag on the clothes rack. “No, he wouldn’t dare to bully me when you’re around.”

“Violette, I heard everything.” Mike walked in. His expression was somber. “Is there something wrong with the baby?” No wonder she had been crying all morning.

Violette feigned calmness. “Not necessarily! There is a risk, but we’ll have to wait for the results.”

“Oh, well, don’t be too stressed.” Mike comforted. “I talked to a doctor, and they said babies aren’t as fragile as we think. Especially after the first trimester, problems are generally unlikely.”

“Violette, I argued with him today. I told him everything.” Mike stood in front of Violette, awkwardly scratching his head.

Violette frowned. “What did you say?”

“Uhm... I accused him of pretending to care for Makayla when he actually looked down on her.” Mike paused. “I also said that you still love him. I asked him to break up with Melinda... at least, wait until after the baby is born.”
