Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 177

Elijah didn't want Sarah to make any additional demands.

So, throwing money at her seemed like the best solution.

Sarah looked shocked, "Mr. Bourne, don't. Makayla's illness... it's not something that can be fixed with just one surgery. You must have noticed, her intellect has improved, but only by a bit. Once she recovers from this surgery, if you still want to continue her treatment, there might be a second surgery, a third one..."

Sarah's words left Elijah speechless.

Sarah had come over during her vacation.

She might not have such ample time in the future.

"Dr. Sarah, what are your plans for your career?" Elijah asked.

He was certainly going to continue Makayla's treatment.

If her intelligence could reach the point of self-sufficiency, that would be ideal!

Sarah got the gist of what he was saying.

"Mr. Bourne, I'm actually in a pretty awkward and confused stage right now. I'm 34 and I've never been in a relationship, which is a constant source of worry for my family. So, my career isn't my top priority at the moment."

She was basically screaming, "Marry me if you want to repay me or if you want me to keep treating your Makayla!"

Elijah frowned slightly.

"Ms. Sarah, I could introduce you to some potential boyfriends," Elijah said after a moment of hesitation.

Sarah was somewhat disappointed, but she still smiled, "I didn't expect to hear that from you."

"Because I need you to continue treating Makayla." Elijah was blunt, "I'm not getting married again in this lifetime."

Sarah was drawn to his handsome and striking features, "Mr. Bourne, I don't necessarily have to get married. I think, after getting to know you, it would be hard for me to be interested in other men. Why don't we date? That way, my family will stop nagging me and I can focus on researching Makayla's illness."

Sarah had found Elijah's Achilles heelm which was

Makayla's illness.

He was willing to spend a fortune on Makayla, so now Sarah only wanted the title of 'girlfriend'. Wasn't that reasonable?

Was he not willing to continue Makayla's treatment?

She was pushing him.
