Awake For Love: My Coma Bridegroom ( Violette Dennis )

Chapter 78 

She was sure she didn’t buy this necklace 

But why was it here? 

She walked out of the room and bumped into Elijah coming downstairs 

Trying to stay cool, she asked him, “Elijah, what’s the deal with this necklace?” 

Although it seemed like it had nothing to do with him, her gut told her he knew something. 

Brandon must’ve told him 

Elijah looked a bit awkward “This is from Brandon “He paused, then said, “It was so cheap nobody wanted it, so I brought it back for you” 

Violette had been planning in her head how to give the necklace back to him, but after he said that, her mind went blank 

It was cheap and unwanted, so he gave it to her 

Fine shell take it then! 

Violette, dinner is ready” Elijah called her 

She wanted to refuse, but still walked towards the dining room. 

Maybe it was because she accepted the gift? 

The two sat down in the dining room. 

Lacey served their dinner, filled their plates, and then left. 

Violette held her bowl and ate slowly 

Did he invite her to dinner tonight because he had something to say? 

And after all the gifts Brandon bought her today, he must’ve agreed, right? 

She was lost in thought, so she didn’t start eating. 

Observing Violette’s absent–mindedness, Elijah inquired, “What’s on your mind? Did Derek reach out to you?” 

Viclette, while chewing a mouthful of rice, inquired, “Are you acquainted with him?” 

“We used to be classmates” Elijah’s tone was calm, but his next words surprised her, “Do you want to see his ex–girlfriends?” 

Violette suddenly started coughing 

She put down her utensils, picked up a glass of water and took a sip. 

Elijah pulled out a stack of photos from somewhere and handed them to her. 

Violette glanced at the photos he handed over, then looked at him. 

His actions made her feel really weird. 

She and Derek were just business partners. 

Why would he want her to see Derek’s ex–girlfriends, 

and even go to the trouble of printing out their photos… she just couldn’t understand. 

Elijah didn’t expect her to stare directly at him. 

“Derek wants to pursue you, don’t you know?” Elijah said bluntly. 

Violette was startled “Am I not your wife? Doesn’t he know?” 

“He knows. But marriages can end, and love can fade “Elijah looked at her surprised face, making sure she hadn’t thought about Derek in any other way before 

“Oh Violette picked up the photos and flipped through them, “All his ex–girlfriends are so sexy! Hot figures, full lips. You guys must all like this type of woman, right?” 

Elijah’s lips tightened 

He showed her these photos to make her realize she wasn’t Derek’s type, 

not to discuss his ideal type with her 

“You said Derek is interested in me, and I’m not his ideal type, so why would he be interested in me? Violette asked, then realized the answer. Is it for revenge on Melinda?” 

“As long as you’re not stupid,” he teased 

Violettes gazeturned sharp as she retorted, “But won’t your relationship with him be irreparably damaged like this? Given your personality, even if someone merely takes something from you, you hold grudges.” 

Eljah’s face darkened. “I haven’t been friends with him for a long time.” 

“Oh “She put the documents down, picked up her bowl and started eating 

“So do you know what to do next?” Elijah was expecting her answer. 

“I had a meeting at the company this afternoon, and the entire management team wants to work with SwiftStream Capital”
