Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 508

He gazed unwaveringly at her pained expression, tightly holding her hand and placing it over his heart.

"Violette, things aren't as you think," he explained softly and sincerely, "I'm only helping her because she once helped Makayla."

Sarah helped Makayla?

It was as if she could hear a mocking laughter in her heart. In his eyes, Sarah was Makayla's savior. Otherwise, he wouldn't have casually tossed Sarah two hundred million dollars.

She wrenched her hand from his grip. "If Sarah could help Makayla, then why did you break up with her?" she asked coldly.

"Because of you," he said without hesitation.

Violette's heart leapt to her throat in surprise. He broke up with Sarah because of her?

"Even though Makayla hasn't completely recovered yet, I'm satisfied with her current state," he continued, "I can't force myself to be with Sarah, nor can I force myself not to care about you."

Hearing his explanation didn't make her feel any better. Instead, she felt exhausted.

"Where are you staying tonight?" she asked, glancing at her own place.

"I don't know," he said, looking around, "Where do you live?"

"You're not thinking of staying at my place, are you? Don't get your hopes up." Violette observed that he hadn't brought anything with him, suspecting that he had rushed over in haste.

"I'll come to your place to rest for a bit. I'm pretty beat," he said, his face showing his fatigue. He hadn't rested all day and only had breakfast. Now he was not only tired, but also hungry.

Elijah noticed that her tone was noticeably lighter, but he didn't argue. If it made her happy, he was happy to be the butt of her jokes.

"I'm not leaving," he said, looking at her, "Experiencing a different kind of life here is not too bad."

"Alright then, I'll call Mr. Rocks and have him arrange a room for you," Violette said, pulling out her phone to call Mr. Rocks.

Just as she turned on her phone, a video call from Mike came in. She wasn't sure why she answered it.

"Hey Violette, how's it going over there? Have you seen Elijah yet?" Mike asked.

Violette held up her phone, giving Elijah a look to signal him to hide in the bathroom. He seemed a bit unhappy, but still obediently went into the bathroom.
