Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 502

At the entrance of the villa, Makayla and Rita walked out from the living room. Elijah saw the two little girls and hurried over.

"Makayla, Rita needs to go to school. I’ll take you home first," he said, walking up to Makayla.

Makayla nodded, whispering, "Ian, I've apologized to Rita. You have to apologize to her, too."

Rita looked down, but her small mouth was pouting high.

Elijah squatted down, looking at Rita's face, which was similar to Violette's. He gently said, "Rita, I'm sorry. Not only was I late yesterday, but I also made you guys upset. I want to explain to your mom."

At this point, he asked, "Do you know where your mom went?"

He had asked Violette's bodyguard earlier, but he wouldn't say anything.

Rita looked closely at Elijah's face, her nervousness gradually fading. Although he was a really bad guy, he was also really handsome.

"Of course I know where my mom went," Rita said proudly, raising her head to him, "but I have to go to kindergarten. I can't talk to you anymore. I can't be like you, always late."

Rita's words were filled with double meanings. Elijah's face showed embarrassment and helplessness.

Rita clenched her little fist, finally being able to vent her anger. She actually had no idea where her mom went. When she woke up, her mom was already gone. But she deliberately teased Elijah's curiosity as a little punishment for him.

The bodyguard came over with Rita's little backpack and picked her up in one arm.

Elijah stood up, looked at Makayla and said, "Let's go."

Makayla nodded regretfully.

As the car drove out of Silverleaf Ridge, Elijah dialed Mike's number.

She was three months pregnant and not suitable for heavy work at all. Was it because of what happened last night that she decided to leave for a business trip early this morning?

She was not a person without judgement. If she was clear-headed, she wouldn't choose to go on a trip at this time.

"Z City," Mike finally conceded. Not because he was afraid that Elijah would really send Joey to the Antarctic, but even if he told Elijah the address, Elijah would not be able to go there.

"Z City?" Elijah's heart tightened instantly, his breath hitching, "Why would she go so far? Even if there are clients there, she doesn't need to go in person. What the hell are you doing, letting her go there alone."

Mike was blamed, but he didn't get angry.

"I told her the same thing this morning. I said I would go with her so I could take care of her. But she told me to stay home and look after the kids." Mike gritted his teeth, "She always makes me stay home to take care of the kids. It makes me feel like my dignity as a man doesn't exist."

Elijah thought for a few seconds, then said, "Give me her detailed itinerary, including the hotel she's staying at. I'll have Joey go help you."
