Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 64

She ain't gonna hand over the stuff her dad gave her to anyone.

No one's gonna take it from her, either.

Although her words were harsh, Elijah wasn't scared at all. Instead, he found it kinda funny.

"What are you laughing at?" Violette looked at the slight smile on his lips, feeling uneasy.

"I'm laughing at you," he mocked. "You think you're all that, so clever, but you're just asking for trouble."

She could take the first two judgments, but what did "asking for trouble" mean?

"Go back to your room! Just seeing you gives me a headache," Elijah's face suddenly darkened, and his voice got serious.

"I haven't done anything. Your headache must be because you're sick," Violette retorted seriously. "Don't you have a personal doctor? Want me to call them for you?"

Elijah gritted his teeth.

Violette went back to her room, her mood totally ruined.

She closed her laptop, walked to the bedside, and lay down.

Truth is, she didn't love Kaleb anymore.

If it hadn't been for Sabrina calling tonight, neither of them would've crossed her mind or heart.

Learning that Kaleb was a gambler and in danger made her feelings very complicated.

All the memories they had shared seemed to have been an illusion.

These memories even made her feel kinda sick.

Everything seemed fake, like she was Truman in "The Truman Show".

She had never touched the real world, always living in a lie.

Lost in her thoughts, she dozed off.

At 2 a.m., a car stopped in front of the Bourne family's house.

Lacey was woken up by the night shift bodyguard.

Lacey hurried out of her room and saw Grace Bourne's angry face.
