Chapter 113
Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom
Joey: "Alright."
Soon, a cup of coffee appeared in front of Elijah.
Joey stepped out of the office, bumping into Melinda, who was without makeup, looking exceptionally pale.
Joey approached her, wanting to say something, but in the end, she said nothing.
Melinda entered the office and closed the door.
"Elijah, Iâm sorry," she said, standing in front of him, her voice low. "It was all my brotherâs doing. He knew about your leg, so he tricked you into climbing that mountain. That mountain is especially steep; we usually never go there. He wanted to hurt you."
Elijah looked at her pale face, went silent for a while, then said, "I know."
"Iâm sorry. He wonât apologize, heâs already fled the country," Melinda said, struggling to hold back her tears. "Elijah, please have mercy on my family.
My father is old, and Iâm afraid he canât handle a family crisis. If you want to punish someone, punish me. Iâll accept it."
Elijah watched her, still silent.
As if this was the first time he was seeing her true appearance.
Before, she was always made up, always presenting her best self to him.
"Melinda, I remember your years of companionship," he said calmly, devoid of any emotion. "Leave here, and never appear before me again. As long as you can do that, I wonât harm your family."
As soon as he finished speaking , Melinda broke into tears.
---It was over!
She and him, it was completely over!
She took a deep breath, trying to hold back her tears, but they flowed anyway.
She gave him one last look, then turned and ran out.
After Melinda left the Bourne Group, Brandon knocked on Elijahâs office door.
He knew Elijah didnât want to hear about Melinda, so he didnât bring it up.
"Elijah, your birthday is next week, if you donât want to throw a party at a hotel, how about a small one at home?" suggested Brandon.
Elijah took a sip of his coffee and said coolly, "No party."
He disliked fuss; he never celebrated his birthdays.
"But Violette has already prepared a birthday gift for you, if you donât celebrate, how is she going to give it to you? You know, her gift isnât something money can buy," Brandon said, deliberately playing coy.
Elijah tried to act indifferent, but his eyes gave him away.
"Sheâs knitting you a sweater! Every day, sheâs knitting, just so she can give it to you before your birthday," Brandon exaggerated. "Donât you want to see the sweater sheâs knitting for you? Iâve never had a woman knit me a sweater before!"
Elijah didnât like wearing sweaters, b ecause wearing them was a hassle.
And painstakingly knitting a sweater, was even more of a hassle!
In his view, this was a foolish act, b ut he wouldnât call her foolish.
If she gave him a sweater, he wouldnât reject it.
"Elijah, I know you dislike fuss, so itâll just be us, a few friends, having a meal together," said Brandon.
Elijah frowned.
Realizing heâd forgotten to mention the most important person, Brandon quickly added, "Oh, and Violette. Sheâs already prepared a gift for you, so sheâll definitely attend our gathering. Do you prefer it at home or at a restaurant?"
Elijah: "Restaurant."
Brandon: "Alright! Iâll book a place right away. After the booking is made, should I inform Violette, or will you?"

ï¤Chapter 2341 Elijah: "You tell her."
Brandon thought for a moment, "Have you two not been in contact all this time? Why not? I heard from Ramsey that Violette has been wanting to see you..."
"She hasnât come to see me." Elijahâs voice was a bit low, even his breath was filled with unhappiness.
Brandon didnât expect, that Elijah was waiting for Violette to reach out to him.
"Sheâs probably busy knitting the sweater! Knitting takes a lot of time, and itâs her first time trying. Wait, I remember you donât like wearing sweaters!"
Brandon suddenly remembered, then laughed, "If she finished knitting it, give it to me! Iâve never worn a handmade sweater before!"
Elijah calmly replied, each word was clear and distinct, "You remembered wrong, I like wearing sweaters."
