Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 449

Elijah looked at the woman beside him in surprise.

When he had first walked into the villa, he had caught a glimpse of her from afar.

She had been all smiles then, but the moment she saw him, the smile vanished into thin air.

By the time he made it to the couch, she had silently retreated into a corner out of his sight.

Now she was sitting next to him, he could clearly see her thin face, and the panic in her eyes.

She had lost so much weight! Even her sharpness seemed to have faded.

Her presence had softened, as if he could shatter her with the slightest touch.

After a rushed glance at him, she was about to get up and leave.

He grabbed her wrist tightly, stopping her from leaving.

Everyone in the room watched the drama unfold.

In fact, their past relationship had been the topic of gossip among Ramsey's friends and Odette's friends.

Now watching their tussle, their curiosity was like a fire burning brightly!

Perhaps their anticipation was so strong that the situation, as they had hoped, started to spiral out of control!

"Beep!"

Elijah's heart rate monitor started to blare!

His heart rate had shot up from eighty to one hundred and twenty!

Watching pretty girls, handsome guys, cute babies, kissing scenes, sex scenes, nothing had caused this reaction. But here he was, with Violette sitting beside him for less than two minutes, and his heart was going haywire.

This was just nuts! Everyone was taken aback by this turn of events.

The alarm sounded like a sledgehammer landing on Elijah and Violette.

Violette's face turned a bright shade of red from embarrassment. She covered her face with her hand, too shy to meet everyone’s eyes.

Elijah quickly took off his heart rate monitor and, with a "slap", flung it away!

Of course, Violette wasn't going to let it slide. She would rather not speculate about his feelings.

Her life had finally returned to normal after much effort, but now everything had been thrown into chaos because of this little incident.

She didn't know how to face him, unless they never saw each other again.

"Violette, I'm truly sorry! I acted impulsively. Stay in the room for the night!" Odette suggested, "After they leave, we can talk."

Although Violette was upset, she didn't want to ruin Odette's mood with the wedding tomorrow.

"Alright. I'm not mad anymore. Go ahead and entertain them. I'm going to take a bath." Violette opened the door, letting Odette out.

Back in the living room.

Elijah had lost the challenge, so he and Brandon had to finish a bottle of alcohol each.

Brandon held his glass, drinking one glass at a time.

Elijah, on the other hand, picked up the bottle and guzzled down the whole thing in one go!
