Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 106

"Mr. Bourne, please hold on," the Marcia family bodyguard stopped Elijah.

Elijah said sternly, "I have to go in! My wife is inside."

The Marcia family bodyguard said, "You mean Ms. Dennis? She went mountain climbing with Mr. Marcia."

Elijah’s lips tightened, and the coldness in his eyes grew stronger.

The Marcia family bodyguard pointed to a nearby peak, "They went up from there. But it’s already dark, and the road up the mountain is quite steep. You’re not familiar with the mountain path, so I suggest you wait in the banquet hall. They’ll be back soon."

Elijah’s fingers clenched slightly, and he strode towards the mountain path.

...

Reception room.

Violette couldn’t sit still after listening to Derek’s father talk about his entrepreneurial history and his views on the Dennis Group for two hours.

"Uncle, thank you for sharing so much with me. Happy birthday to you. As for work, I’ll discuss it privately with Derek."

If it wasn’t for the fact that it was his birthday, Violette might not have been able to sit for so long.

"Dad, take a break. I’ll take Violette to eat," Derek looked at the time and spoke to his father.

As they left the reception room, Violette looked at the darkening sky and felt a touch of sadness in her heart.

Maybe because it was her first time here, she felt unfamiliar and uneasy everywhere.

"Derek, I won’t accept your investment." Violette mustered up the courage to tell him her answer.

Derek stopped suddenly, his face losing its composure, "Why? Can you give me a clear reason?"

Violette didn’t mince words, "Because you’re Melinda’s brother. So I won’t accept your investment."

"Did Elijah say something to you? Are you planning to accept Elijah’s investment?" Derek was not surprised by her answer, but he was heartbroken.

"I won’t accept his investment," Violette said calmly and decisively, "Derek, I took a bullet train this afternoon, and now I need to catch a train back, so I won’t stay for the dinner."

She came today just to tell him her answer face to face.
