Chapter 94
Inside the room, the doc and Grace were present too,
discussing Elijah's physical condition by the window.
Violette felt like she had lead in her boots, unable to step into the room.
Melinda, holding a basin of water, spun around from the bedside and spotted Violette lingering in the
doorway.
"Violette! What are you doing here?" Melinda hushed, fearing to rouse Elijah.
She put down the basin on the nightstand and strode towards Violette.
Hearing Melinda's voice, Grace also headed for the door.
......
Violette, not wanting to wake up Elijah, took a few steps towards the staircase.
Melinda, thinking she was making a run for it, blocked her path.
"Violette! You think you can play Elijah like a fool? If you don't fancy him, then let him be! If you hurt him
again, I won't let it slide!" Melinda's eyes were ablaze with hatred.
Grace sternly added, "Violette, Elijah must've been hoodwinked by you to refuse the divorce. Can't
believe you're biting the hand that feeds you! I must've been blind to choose you over Melinda! Only
Melinda truly loves Elijah!"
Against their tag team, Violette didn't feel like fighting back.
She just wanted to check on Elijah, and one glance
was enough.
"You guys take care of him! I'm outta here!" Violette shoved Melinda aside and descended the stairs.
In the living room, everyone was all ears, listening to the commotion upstairs.
The crowd had mixed feelings when Violette came down.
Some were enjoying the drama, while others were shaking their heads in disbelief.
But what really mattered was Elijah's view on this.
Unfortunately, he did not have much consciousness due to his fever, completely clueless about what
was going on.
"Ms. Dennis, did you take the cab here? I can drive you back," Joey offered warmly.
Violette shook her head, "I'll manage."
With that, she headed for the door.
Lacey, seeing her dazed departure, immediately followed, "Mrs. Bourne, you forgot your laptop."
Violette snapped back to reality.
She quickly turned around, crossed the living room, and went into her room.
"Wish I could wake Elijah up," Brandon pondered, "Once Violette leaves tonight, she might never come All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
back."
Joey egged him on, "Go wake him up then! You have my moral support."
Brandon glared at her, "I wouldn't dare with Grace around."
Soon after, Violette emerged, lugging her suitcase.
She claimed to retrieve her laptop, but it was just an excuse.
If Elijah were awake, they could have a good talk, and maybe she wouldn't leave after that.
Lacey felt guilt-ridden.
She had good intentions when she urged Violette to go upstairs.
What if Elijah woke up after she went up?
That's gotta be better than her not seeing Elijah at all after making the trip, right?
"Wwhy not wait till your husband wakes up, say goodbye, and then leave?" Lacey suggested.
Violette responded, "No need."
With that, she dragged her suitcase and walked resolutely into the chilly winter night.
Just then, Grace followed her downstairs.
"Violette! If you leave, don't you ever come back!"
Brandon sighed inwardly.
This was just adding fuel to the fire!
Violette had always been hot-headed, not yet over Mr. E's affair. Now Grace pissed her off again. How
could she possibly hold it in?
Violette couldn't care less about Grace's threat.
Soon, she vanished from their sight.
"You saw it, I didn't bully her! She left on her own!" Grace angrily said .
