Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 425

When he was not seeing her or thinking about her, he can eat, drink, and sleep just fine.

But the moment she came to mind, his body had a strange reaction.

Soon, there was a knock on his door and Elijah walked in from the balcony.

He opened the door to find Lacey standing outside.

"Sir, Violette was here. She said she needed to see you but didn't tell me why," Lacey said, "She's gone now."

"I know," he replied coldly.

"So, should I let her in next time?" Lacey asked.

"No need," he said after a moment of silence.

......

When Violette got home, she was soaked to the bone.

"Mom, why are you all wet? Didn't you take an umbrella?" Rita asked with a concerned expression.

Mike pushed her towards the staircase, "Go take a hot shower, you don't want to catch a cold."

Violette headed upstairs.

"Mike, why did you let my mom come back on her own?" Rita blamed Mike.

Ian also gave Mike a reproachful look.

Surrendering to the two little ones, Mike said, "Your mom said she had something to do this afternoon and didn't want me to tag along. I'll make her some soup so she doesn't get sick." He headed towards the kitchen while saying this.

Violette took a shower, dried her hair and went downstairs.

Mike handed her the soup he had prepared, and she thanked him after finishing it.

"Violette, where did you go this afternoon? Didn't you know it was raining? Can't you use an umbrella or take shelter?" Mike scolded.

Rita pouted, defending her mom: "My mom is soaked and you still have the nerve to scold her!"

"Alright, let's go eat," Mike led the children to the dining table, "Violette, our bodyguard is a great cook. We should give him a raise."

"Oh, I thought you didn't like marketing?"

"Nothing is absolute," she lost her appetite and put down her fork, "I've been following Alexa's company. They're using all possible means to promote their products. So far, it's working great. Kylee's trying to help me, I have no reason to refuse."

"You're not being stubborn anymore!"

"I can't lose to Alexa," she stood up from the chair, "I need to prepare a plan and communicate with Kylee."

"Hey, eat something first!" Mike saw that she left half of her food untouched and immediately stopped her.

"I'm not hungry. I'll make some noodles when I'm hungry," she said and headed upstairs quickly.

Once upstairs, she opened her laptop and started working.

The rain was pouring harder outside, its sound like a drum on the window.

She finished her work distractedly and stood up from the chair.

Looking at the time, it was already eleven at night. She needed to go out now.
