Awake For Love: My Coma Bridegroom ( Violette Dennis )
Chapter 316

Chapter 316

Elijah didn't sleep a wink last night.

Makayla had become a bit smarter now and should be able to remember his phone number, so there

was no need for her to hide out all night.

He had people stationed around Silverleaf Ridge last night.

From then till now, there had been no word. That meant they hadn't found Makayla.

It was warmer now, but sleeping on the streets would still freeze her.

Where could she be hiding? Did some kind soul take her in for the night?

He was kicking himself. She'd run away from home after her first surgery.

He thought she'd be smarter now and better able to cope. He'd explained the reasons for the surgery

over and over, thinking she'd get it at least a little bit.

Who'd have thought she'd still be so resistant?

If he'd known it'd turn out like this, maybe he wouldn't have forced her to have the surgery. But he didn't

want her to be a fool for the rest of her life!

What if he left the world before her? Who'd protect her once he was gone?

He couldn't stand her being bullied. Even just picturing it in his mind was unbearable.

In his heart, there were two kinds of people in the world. The first kind was normal people, the second

kind was him and Makayla.

He drove to Lavender Lane and searched every corner again. Then, he went to the security center to

check the records of every car entering and exiting.

At 2 in the afternoon.

He saw a familiar Range Rover driving out of the underground garage on the surveillance footage.

He paused the video with a click of the mouse.

"Isn't this Violette's car?" he muttered to himself, looking at the time on the monitor, "What was she

doing at 10:30 last night?"

The people around him didn't know what to say. Wasn't he looking for Makayla? Why brought up

Violette now?

He took out his phone, found Violette's number, and dialed.

In the villa, Violette's phone rang, and the two kids immediately gathered around. Today Violette wasn't

home, and they didn't go to school.

Ian had wanted to take Rita to school. After all, he was the big brother and had to set an example for

his sister.

But Rita kept filling his head with "you don't really want to go to kindergarten either,” which made him

change his mind. So, Ian asked the teacher for leave, saying Rita was sick and he had to take care of

her at home.

The teacher didn't suspect anything and agreed.

Now, Violette's phone rang, leaving the siblings unsure of what to do.

"Isn't that bad daddy's name?" Rita couldn't read many words, but she knew Elijah's name clear as day.

"What's he calling mommy for?" Ian grumbled, hanging up the call.

Rita spoke up, disappointed, "Don't you want to know what he wants with mommy? I really want to

know! If he calls again, let's pick up!"

Ian said, "Dummy, he won't talk if he doesn't hear mommy's voice!"

With that, Ian added Elijah's number to the blacklist, so he wouldn't call again and disturb their peace.

In the monitoring room.

Elijah looked at the hung-up call, shocked. Even if they were divorced, it shouldn't be to the point of not

answering the phone, right?

Just as Elijah was about to call her again, a call came in.

It was from Sarah.

But when he picked up, a strange female voice came through.

"Mr. Bourne, hello, Dr. Sarah asked me to call you and explain the situation." The woman said first, "Dr.

Sarah is performing surgery on Makayla right now. Don't worry. The surgery should be done in about

an hour."
