How dangerous it could have been if he hadn't been discovered by Odette when he passed out?
Dusk.
She pondered for a while and finally decided to pop over to Bourne Mansion.
"Violette, I can drive you there." Mike said, following her out of the house.
She shook her head, "I'm going to see Makayla. I'll be back in a jiffy."
Mike said, "Cut the act! If you're just going to see Makayla, why not give her a ring and ask her out?
She's got a cell now."
Seeing that he saw right through her, she didn't argue any further, "No need for a ride, I'll drive myself."
"You're pregnant! How can I let you drive alone at night? If anything goes wrong, Elijah would be on my
case first!" Mike held his ground, "Alright, how about this? I'll drop you off, but I won't go in with you."
She opened the car door, hopped in the driver's seat, and shut the door.
She rolled down the window and said, "It's not dark yet. Take the kids out for a bit. I'll try to be back
before nightfall."
With that, she drove off. Mike stood there, hands on hips, feeling a bit miffed.
But then he thought, even though Elijah might be a piece of work, he was still the man Violette chose.
If she really wanted to leave him, she had plenty of ways to do it! She might be all talk, but her actions
spoke volumes.
Bourne Mansion.
Elijah hadn't returned home last night. Lacey had heard about his fainting episode and hospitalization
today, so she didn’t report anything to him happened in the house.
She couldn't even if she wanted to. He was resting in the hospital. No one dared to disturb him.
Violette's arrival took Lacey by surprise.
"Violette, what brings you here? Why didn't you give me a heads-up?" Lacey gave a forced smile,
"Have you eaten yet? I can whip something up."
Violette said, "I've had. I'm here to see Makayla." Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The smile vanished from Lacey's face.
After Makayla was brought home by the bodyguard last night, she woke up in the middle of the night
from a nightmare and cried for half the night. She started running a fever this morning, so they called in
the family doctor.
Though her fever had broken, she was still delirious, babbling now and then.
Elisa and Lacey were both on pins and needles. Without Elijah's orders, they didn't dare contact Sarah.
They knew Elijah was trying to cut ties with Sarah.
Moreover, Sarah's treatments cost an arm and a leg. One operation alone was a billion dollars. Who
would dare to contact her without Elijah's orders?
"What's wrong? Makayla's not home?" Violette saw the strange expression on Lacey's face and asked.
Lacey grabbed her by the arm and led her to Makayla's room.
Violette frowned at this. She came this time to express her gratitude to Makayla. Content of
