Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 16

"Violette, who told you he's into another woman? Where did you get that from? Do you know what's the woman's name?" Melinda started to feel uneasy inside.

She still believed that there would be no other woman beside Elijah, but her.

Violette shook her head: "Melinda, it was just my two cents... You know Elijah better than I do."

After calming down a bit, she changed her tune.

She noticed that Elijah's situation was far from simple, and she didn't want to get involved.

She just wanted to live a chill life, had her kid, and that was it.

"I thought you saw Elijah with another woman with your own eyes! You scared the hell out of me." Melinda accepted Violette's explanation, and her mood relaxed, "Elijah is not the guy you think he is. He doesn't like women, or kids."

Violette casually asked: "Do you know why he doesn't like kids?"

"To be honest, I don't know. I'm not interested in knowing why, if he doesn't like it, I won't do it, it's that simple." Melinda's eyebrows furrowed slightly as if talking to herself, "He's not that bad to me, actually."

"As long as you're happy." Violette had given up on changing her mind.

Everyone had their own choices, as long as they can bear the consequences of that choice.

Violette thought Melinda was a bit silly, but she decided to have a child with Elijah, which might also seem silly to others.

Then, their food came.

Violette was really hungry, so she picked up her utensils and started eating.

Melinda was in a funk, with no appetite: "Violette, are you sure you're not in love with Elijah?"

Violette nodded, "Sure."

Melinda was confused: "Why? He's so great, so attractive."

Violette looked at her: "If I had to choose between you and him, I'd rather choose you." At least this way, she won't get hurt.

Melinda was shocked by her words, "Violette, you..."

Violette waved her hand: "I'm just giving an example. As long as you get what I mean."

Melinda relaxed completely, and found Violette much more agreeable.

Thinking about Violette's father's death, the bankruptcy of her family's company, and now she was all alone in the Dennis family, Melinda couldn't help feeling sorry for her.

"Violette, you haven't graduated from college yet, right?"

"Graduating next year." Violette took a sip of water.

"Ah, I heard about your dad's company. Your dad is dead, his debts have nothing to do with you. You just need to take care of your studies and life." Melinda gave her a piece of advice, "Your dad owed so much debt, where are you going to get that much money? Don't kill yourself over it."

Violette lowered her head, without saying a word.

Almost everyone advised her to give up the Dennis Group.

Close to a billion in debt, it was no small sum.

Including her mom, who also advised her to give up.

But, the deputy always whispered in her ear about how great the company's new products were, that as long as they could get through this hard time, things would only get better.

She was torn every day.

At the end of lunch, Melinda picked up the tab early.

Because they ordered all vegetables, it didn't cost much, and Violette didn't fight for the bill.

"Violette, can I have your contact?" After paying, Melinda walked up to Violette and made the proposal.

Violette refused: "I don't think it's necessary. I will be divorcing Elijah soon, and we won't have anything to do with each other in the future."

Melinda was disappointed to be rejected.

But thinking that she won't have anything to do with her in the future, it gave her a sense of relief.

"Yes, the person who will be with Elijah in the future will be me, only me." Melinda's eyes briefly swept over her face, and after saying this, she left in her high heels.

......

Two thirty in the afternoon.

Violette got all her test results and found the doctor.

The doctor looked at her results and adjusted his glasses.

"Good, all the results are normal. But... it seems like you're having twins!"

Violette was stunned.

"Do you still want to terminate the pregnancy now?" The doctor asked with a smile, "The chances of having twins are as low as winning the lottery. You've hit the jackpot!"

Violette's emotions were in a whirl, she felt extremely excited yet overwhelmed at the same time.

Twins!
