Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 92

In that afternoon.

Violette got herself two pots of daffodils from the flower market, which

she carried back to the place her mom rented.

It wasn't even five yet, so you'd think Albina would still be at work.

But there she was, busy in the kitchen.

"Mom, did you leave work early today?" Violette asked, changing her slippers and placing the flowers on the living room table.

Albina came out of the kitchen, looking a bit awkward.

"Violette, I didn't keep that job," she explained. "My friend's daughter-in-law found a more professional nanny."

Violette simply replied and then gave her mom a hug.

"Don't worry, Mom."

Albina smiled and said, "I'm fine... What's with the flowers?"

Violette glanced at the humble house and said, "I passed by the flower market and got these."

"Ah, Violette, don't worry about my job. I'll find another one."

"Mom, you don't have to. Just stay at home and rest!" Violette took out her bank card and handed it to her mom. "There's money in there. Use it."

Albina pushed the card away and said seriously, "Violette, I've lived long enough to learn one thing. It's better to rely on yourself than others. Even if I have to sweep the streets tomorrow, it's better than asking for your money."

Violette couldn't help but laugh at her mom's righteous look. "Come on, Mom, sweeping streets? I heard they have to wake up at like 4 or 5 in the morning. It's freezing now! Just find an easy job."

Albina laughed too. "If the pay is good, waking up early isn't a problem. I'll go cook. You sit down and rest."

Violette was sitting on the sofa and checking her phone, when she saw messages from Odette.

Odette: Violette, I really don't get it... What's the deal with Elijah? He's still sick, so why did he come looking for you? What's he playing at? If he really loved you, he'd just give you money! What's his game?

Violette didn't know how to respond to Odette's complaints.

After a while, Odette sent another message: Ramsey just went to see Elijah. The doctor said Elijah's immune system is messed up and he should be hospitalized. Is that serious?
