Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 78

She was sure she didn't buy this necklace.

But why was it here?

She walked out of the room and bumped into Elijah coming downstairs.

Trying to stay cool, she asked him, "Elijah, what's the deal with this necklace?"

Although it seemed like it had nothing to do with him, her gut told her he knew something.

Brandon must've told him.

Elijah looked a bit awkward: "This is from Brandon." He paused, then said, "It was so cheap nobody wanted it, so I brought it back for you."

Violette had been planning in her head how to give the necklace back to him, but after he said that, her mind went blank.

It was cheap and unwanted, so he gave it to her.

Fine, she'll take it then!

"Violette, dinner is ready," Elijah called her.

She wanted to refuse, but still walked towards the dining room.

Maybe it was because she accepted the gift?

The two sat down in the dining room.

Lacey served their dinner, filled their plates, and then left.

Violette held her bowl and ate slowly.

Did he invite her to dinner tonight because he had something to say?

And after all the gifts Brandon bought her today, he must've agreed, right?

She was lost in thought, so she didn't start eating.

Observing Violette's absent-mindedness, Elijah inquired, "What's on your mind? Did Derek reach out to you?"

Violette, while chewing a mouthful of rice, inquired, "Are you acquainted with him?"

"We used to be classmates." Elijah's tone was calm, but his next words surprised her, "Do you want to see his ex-girlfriends?"
