Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 68

Just a single sentence easily shattered her defenses.

She left at six in the morning and turned off her phone, so he couldn't reach her and ended up here.

Does this mean he was worried about her?

"You must be Elijah, right?" Albina quickly broke the awkward silence. "Violette was feeling a bit off today, so I took her out for a breather. She's okay now. I'll go fetch you a glass of water!"

Violette: "Mom!"

Elijah: "No need."

They both spoke at the same time.

The atmosphere got even more awkward.

"Mom, he's leaving soon. You don't have to fuss over him. Just sit down and rest." Violette guided her mother to the couch.

She was subtly trying to kick him out.

Taking the hint, he stood up, saying to Albina, "I'll be leaving now, I'll visit you another day."

As Albina tried to see him off, Violette stopped her.

"Mom, I'll be off too. You rest well at home today."

With that said, Violette followed Elijah out.

Once they left, Violette told him, "Don't come here again."

His face turned colder as if he was at his limit.

"Kaleb! Don't be scared! You're in the hospital! You're safe! Nobody can hurt you anymore!" His mother, Melina, consoled him in tears. "Your dad has already paid your debt."

Travis's face wasn't looking too good, having coughed up a lot for his son's debt.

He had always known that his son was a screw-up,

but last night, Kaleb lost way too much!

Losing a few hundred thousand in the past was something that Travis could tolerate, but last night, Kaleb had lost over fifty million, which was far beyond his threshold.

Of course, Travis didn't pay the full amount.

They chopped off Kaleb's finger, so he only had to pay half.
