She didn’t dare to fight back
Because the more she resisted, the wilder he’d become
For the sake of the baby in her belly, all she could do was le still, let him vent his frustrations.
Why aren’t you saying anything?” His eyes bore into her small face intensely, and his big hands
gently rubbed her cheek
“What do you want me to say? Just tell me what you want to hear” she said helplessly.
His anger instantly evaporated
“Violette, did I really screw up that bad?” His voice was hoarse and gentle, his hand cradled the back of her head
His body felt hot
and so did she.
“You didn’t screw up that bad,” her eyes flickered, dropping the pretense yet remaining firm, “Elijah, you’re great, everything about you is But I want a peaceful ife Please, it
The hope in his eyes shattered, he didn’t want to hear her speak anymore.
His lips silenced her, smothering her protests.

and was taken aback by what he witnessed
Elijah was lying on the bed, eyes closed, not a stitch of clothing on him, completely motionless
Violette stood at the bedside, clutching a blanket
Caught off guard by the sudden intrusion, so the expression on her face looked surprised.
“What did you do to Mr Bourne?! He rushed to the bed, reaching to check Elijah’s breath.
Violette was impressed by his imagination, “He’s not dead Just asleep

Til leave now! Take good care of him!” With that, he made a hasty exit.
