Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 121

Violette plonked her phone on the table and took a sip of the lamb soup Brandon had poured for her, feeling a little parched.

Brandon rapped on the table, saying disgruntled, "Hey, you two think we don't know you're swapping texts?"

Getting nervous about what Elijah might blurt out, Violette quickly said, "We're stuffed, so let’s head out!"

Brandon joked, "Alright then, we're full too! You two are too adorable."

The Bourne family.

The news of Elijah's murder plot reached Grace

, who rushed over in the middle of the night.

Seeing Violette there, Grace's face darkened considerably.

"Tonight, when the boss was almost hit by a car, Violette lunged and shielded him in her arms," the bodyguard, who had witnessed the whole thing, felt it necessary to tell Grace, "If I hadn't shot the car's tires, that car would have rammed straight into them. Violette would have been crushed underneath, no doubt about it. The boss might have had a fighting chance because she was protecting him."

Upon hearing the bodyguard's account, a bloody scene played out in Grace's mind.

"Mom, we haven't had dinner yet," Elijah piped up, "We’ll go get something to eat."

"Oh, go ahead! I'll be leaving soon." Grace said.

Grace's resentment towards Violette had lessened significantly in that moment.

She could only tell a person's true colors in times of crisis.

Violette had protected Elijah without hesitation in such a perilous situation. If it wasn't love that motivated her bravery, then what was it?

After dinner, Elijah and Violette exited the restaurant.

Elijah told Violette to head back to their room first.

But Grace called out her name,

"Violette, I know how to judge character. Thanks for protecting him tonight," Grace got up from the couch and walked up to Violette, "Let's forget about the past resentments. As long as you treat Elijah with sincerity, I won't ask for more. Elijah is my son, I just want him to be well."

Violette was a bit taken aback by the sudden change in her relationship with the old lady. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "It's late. You should go get some rest."

Grace nodded, "You two should also get some sleep."

After the driver escorted Grace out, t

he living room fell silent.
