Awake For Love: My Coma Bridegroom Chapter 223
Chapter 223
Seeing a fight not far away, he quickly ran over.
Turned out, things weren’t that simple
Mike had been beaten up by two guys
One of them was Violette’s ex–husband, Elijah.
Adrian immediately pulled Mike to his side and confronted Elijah, “Why’d you hit Mike?”
Elijah had come over just three minutes earlier. He saw Mike on top of Joey, beating him, and immediately kicked Mike to the ground.
“Adrian, he hit my assistant” Elijah dusted himself off and explained, “My assistant’s pretty weak; he can’t take a beating.”
Adrian saw Joey’s broken glasses and shot Mike a dirty look.
“Violette’s phone is off, not sure if something’s wrong.” Adrian said to Mike, “I’m going to look for her now. You either go to the banquet hall and take care of the guests or
come with me”
Mike swallowed his anger, “Tll go with you!”
Elijah strode over and blocked their way, “What’s wrong with Violette?!”
Adrian “Mr. Bourne, we’re not sure what’s going on either. I called her this morning, and she said she’d be here by six. But it’s almost seven now, and she’s not here.”
“Is she not at home on weekends? Elijah worried
Adrian: “She’s not at home. Mr. Bourne, we’ll go find her first. If you want to know more, let’s talk after we find her.”
With that, they hurried away
Elijah watched them leave and headed for another elevator.
Joey followed him, explaining. “This birthday party for Ms. Dennis was organized by Mike. The guests were also invited by him. It wasn’t Ms. Dennis’s idea.”
Elijah frowned, “Didn’t she check the guest list?”
Joey: “I heard she’s been busy lately. They don’t even know what she’s been up to.”
Elijah glanced at him, “You don’t have to follow me. Go get a new pair of glasses.”
Joey: “Alright”
“When you’re clearly outmatched, you should use your brain. You’re usually rational, what happened tonight?” Elijah asked, puzzled by his disheveled appearance.
Joey lowered his head. “He probably didn’t invite you because of our past issues.”
“You’re overthinking it. Even if you hadn’t had issues with him, he still wouldn’t have invited me,” Elijah said calmly, “Don’t be so impulsive next time”
“I understand.”
After leaving the hotel, Elijah got in the car.
The bodyguard asked, “Boss, where to?”
“I make a call first.”
Elijah called the phone company to inquire about the last known location of Violette’s phone before it was turned off.
Soon, Elijah got a general area
“Head to Silverleaf Bay”
Her phone was last located near Silverleaf Bay
As they approached Silverleaf Bay, Elijah told the bodyguard to slow down. On the bustling street, he spotted a white Range Rover parked by the roadside.
That seemed to be Violette’s carl
“Pull over!” Elijah commanded sharply, and the bodyguard immediately pulled over
Elijah got out and strode toward the white Range Rover.
The early autumn wind carried a hint of chill.
He walked up to her car and saw her slumped over the steering wheel, seemingly passed out!
“Violette!” His eyes filled with rage, he roared her name and yanked the car door open!
