Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom

Chapter 548

Time was ticking away, and the sky was growing darker. The rain was starting to fall. Although it wasn't

heavy, it was enough to make you uneasy.

"Ms. Dennis, the potion's cooled down," came a voice.

Violette snapped back to reality, walked over to the wooden barrel, and checked the temperature of the

potion with her hand.

"Put the body in," she ordered.

"Oh... just drop the corpse in like that, won't it rot?" asked Silver King's assistant. "Ms. Dennis, can you

really bring the dead back to life?"

Violette shot him a cold look. "You are doubting me?"

"I'm just curious."

Violette said solemnly, "This is a secret potion. The body won't rot."

Seeing her serious demeanor, the assistant didn't question any further. A few bodyguards lifted the

corpse and placed it in the barrel.

Violette noticed the varying degrees of panic on their faces. No matter how beautiful this woman had

been in life, her corpse from over a decade ago wouldn't be appreciated by anyone. It was not the dead

that were scary; it was the fear of the unknown that was terrifying.

"Ms. Dennis, what do we do now?" the assistant asked.

"Wait," Violette replied calmly, standing by the barrel.

The assistant seemed puzzled. "Wait for what?"

"Wait for her to come back to life," Violette added. She felt somewhat fearful and glanced out the

window, whispering, "Doesn't the room seem a bit dark? Turn on the lights."

The assistant found her a bit eccentric but signaled to the bodyguards, nonetheless.

A bodyguard went to turn on the light, but the chandelier hanging from the ceiling didn't light up when

the switch was flipped. Violette watched this scene, a glimmer of hope igniting within her. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"What's going on?" The assistant went over to the switch and tried again, but the chandelier still didn't

respond.

"Stay here. I'll check the circuit breaker." The assistant said seriously, then left in a hurry.

At this time, the light above Silver King's head also went out. He was entertaining guests in the VIP

room, where the lights had been on until they suddenly went out.

Because night had fallen, the room became even darker when the light went out. He thought the light

had burnt out, but then his assistant rushed in, telling him that the power was out throughout the entire

mansion.

He thought he must have misheard. He had never experienced a power outage in his life. There were

plenty of backup power supplies in the mansion.

"Boss, the technician is working on it. The power should be restored soon," the assistant told Silver

King.

Seeing that the power was out, the guests hurriedly left. The sky darkened in an instant. With no

electricity, the mansion was enveloped in an eerie atmosphere.

"Where's Violette?." A sense of foreboding rose in Silver King's heart.

"What a bunch of incompetent idiots. Were all the backup power supplies sabotaged?." Silver King was

furious.

"Yes, they were. Even if they sabotaged our power supply, we have Violette. There's no need to be

afraid," the assistant said nervously.

Soon, they reached the second floor.

"Violette. Is your man coming to rescue you tonight?" Silver King taunted, pulling out a handgun, "Think

you can get out of here alive?"

His only response was silence.
