Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 300

Silverleaf Ridge.

After breakfast, Mike broke the news of Albina's passing to the two kids.

"I know this is a huge blow for you guys, and I'm pretty bummed too. But your grandma has left us forever, and I hope you can be strong. Your mom is really, really upset right now. If you guys are sad too, it'll make her even more miserable." Mike said.

Mike hugged each child and gave them a kiss on the head after he finished talking.

Rita couldn't take the news. She cried her eyes out, her little mouth kept sobbing, making a weak sound, "I miss grandma. I want to find grandma.”

Ian's eyes were wet too, but he was stronger. He didn't cry out loud and even hugged his sister, "Rita, don't cry. Brother is here."

"I don't want to be apart from grandma. What will we do without her?" Rita felt like the world was falling apart.

Grandma used to pick her up from school, make them delicious food, and take them out to play every day.

"Rita, don't be scared. We can still live well without grandma. When mom comes back later, let's not cry in front of her, okay?" Mike comforted, "From now on, I'll take you guys out to play and eat yummy food."

"I want my grandma. Where do people go when they die? I want to bring my grandma back." Rita rubbed her eyes, her tears soaking her hands.

Seeing her sad face, Mike decided to tell her the truth. After all, better a short sharp shock than a long-drawn-out pain.

"When people die, they're gone. Your grandma will never come back. She's completely disappeared from the world we live on." Mike said.

After hearing this, Rita hugged her brother and cried even harder. Mike covered his face with his hands, and after a moment, he called Adrian.

"Mike, how are the kids?" Adrian asked, then heard Rita's crying.

Mike said, "Not so good. You know they had a great relationship with their grandma. How's Violette?"

Adrian glanced at Violette and answered, "We're at the cemetery now. Her mom has been buried. But Violette hasn't slept all night, I'm worried it'll take a toll on her body."

As soon as Adrian finished speaking, he saw Violette faint.

Compensation? Violette didn't care about money at all.

"Did you overlook the fact that the driver at fault is a gambler?" Elijah said coldly, "He owes over a million in gambling debts, his wife left with their child long ago, and his parents were taken by the debt collectors, only to be suddenly sent back home a while ago."

The chief was stunned and sighed, "Elijah, it's only been one night since the incident, and you've already found out so much."

Elijah said, "The deceased was my mother-in-law. I can't let her die in vain."

The chief nodded, "So you think this is a murder?"

"It's obvious," Elijah said confidently, "Someone hired a hitman to kill."

The chief frowned, "Fortunately, the driver at fault didn't die. We'll interrogate him thoroughly once he's recovered."

"I'm afraid someone might try to harm the driver at fault." Elijah said.
