Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 85

Ramsey had an epiphany, "What should we do then? Should we have Elijah beg her?"

Joey: "I'll check on them after work."

Ramsey: "Maybe I can get my girlfriend to talk to Violette?"

Joey: "Who's your girlfriend?"

Ramsey cleared his throat: "A good friend of Violette... she's the one who told Violette about it. I really... I would have dumped her last night if it wasn't for my feelings for her!"

Joey sighed: "You sure know how to pick 'em!"

Ramsey: "I feel like I'm being toyed with by them. How could I know they were so crafty."

Joey: "Guess I can't share anything with you anymore. You're not one of us now."

Ramsey felt wronged: "Joey, I'll stick to my principles! Elijah is my bottom line."

By evening.

Brandon and Joey came to the Bourne family to visit Elijah.

"The boss came home at 5 am... The bodyguard said he stayed over at his mother-in-law's. He passed out around 4 am, that's when they brought him back," Lacey said. "He's in his room now, he had a fever in the afternoon, it broke, but now it's back."

Brandon and Joey were speechless.

When has Elijah ever been so pathetic? To think he stayed out all night for Violette!

"I remember it was pouring last night!" Brandon furrowed his brows.

Joey: "The rain was especially heavy after midnight. The artificial lake in my neighborhood even overflowed."

Brandon: "With such heavy rain, even the strongest body can't hold up!"

Joey looked at Lacey: "Where's Violette? She didn't come back?"

Lacey shook her head in dismay: "I called her, but she didn't answer. She usually picks up when I call. Their fight must have been really bad this time."
