Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 400

"Ms. Dennis, you're finally awake!"

A male voice rang out in her ears.

Violette turned towards the source of the sound.

It was Elijah's bodyguard.

"Ms. Dennis, do you remember what happened last night?" The bodyguard stood by the bed, chatting away non-stop, "Last night, when our boss carried you back from the forest, it was raining cats and dogs! He even lost his shoes and had to walk barefoot to get you back!"

Violette didn't know how to respond.

"Although your leg was badly injured, our boss also got a few deep cuts on his feet..." The bodyguard looked down at her with a smug expression, "You got soaked last night and had a high fever. Our boss also caught a fever. After bringing you back, he treated his feet, and took some fever medicine, but didn't even have time to close his eyes before he had to rush to the old lady's funeral."

Seeing no expression on her face, he figured that she must be too ill to comprehend.

"Ms. Dennis, out of all the women I know, you're the toughest," The bodyguard's face showed admiration, "Early this morning, around five, my colleagues and I found an injured wolf in the forest... perhaps it's the one that bit you last night? You're amazing! So thin and weak, yet you fought a wolf!"

"I had a dagger," Violette corrected him.

The moment she opened her mouth, a strange sensation hit her throat.

She broke into a fit of coughing!

"Ms. Dennis, don’t speak, just listen to me," The bodyguard continued, "That wolf, we ate it! Consider it as revenge for you!"

Violette: "..."

"Also, my colleagues are really sorry for offending you in the basement yesterday. That giant python doesn't eat humans, they just wanted to scare you."

"Why are you apologizing to me?" she asked in a hoarse voice.

"Because we're scared! We thought the boss hated your guts, but who would've thought he cared so much about you!" The bodyguard said helplessly, "I know you probably hate our boss now, and I'm not here to defend him. I just hope you won’t take it out on my colleagues... they're incredibly loyal to the boss..."

Violette responded weakly, "I just want to rest now."

"Oh...I'll go get the doctor to check on you," The bodyguard quickly left after saying that.

Soon, the doctor came to check her condition.

After taking her temperature and blood pressure, the doctor said:

"Ms. Dennis, you still have a slight fever! And you've lost a lot of blood, so you're quite anemic. You must stay in bed for the next few days and avoid catching a cold. You're very weak right now, and your leg is seriously wounded . The wound is quite large, and it might leave a scar."

She could clearly feel that her body was very weak.

"Boss, Ms. Dennis is awake!" The bodyguard told Elijah, "She didn’t cry or make a fuss. She seems to be in good mood."

After realizing Elijah's true feelings towards Violette, the bodyguards dared not say a word against her.

Upon hearing this, Elijah quickly entered the mansion.

The maid was about to go upstairs with a bowl of oatmeal.

Seeing Elijah, she immediately said, "The doctor told me to cook oatmeal for Ms. Dennis."

Elijah took the bowl from the maid and headed upstairs.

He appeared at her bedside with the bowl of oatmeal.

Seeing him, she didn't show any expressions, but reflexively clenched her fists, on high alert.

"Open your mouth," He scooped a spoonful of oatmeal and brought it to her lips, "Violette, if you still want to see your child, if you still want revenge on Alexa, then open your mouth!"

Violette did open her mouth, but not to swallow the oatmeal he was feeding her, instead she said —

"I can eat by myself," Her voice was hoarse from the fever, but she was still stubborn.
