Chapter 592
Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom
âHah! Just as I suspected!â Odette sneered, âThat girl Melinda brought in is for Elijah.â
Violette averted her gaze.
It was absurd, but she couldnât control the actions of others.
âSuch bad luck! I was in such a good mood just now, but then they showed up.â Odette took a sip of her water, turning to Violette. âViolette, letâs go to another restaurant.â
Violette shook her head. âWe got here first.â
âI just donât want you to feel uncomfortable.â
âEven if I do, we canât leave.â Violette replied calmly. âWeâve already ordered. We canât waste food.â
âWe could take it to go?â
âOdette, since when do you back down? If that girl did indeed get plastic surgery to look like me, it should be her whoâs scared when she sees me, not the other way around.â
âOf course Iâm not scared! Even if Elijah came up to me right now, I wouldnât be afraid!â Odette bristled, but subconsciously touched her previously bruised cheek.
The waiter came over with their food and set it on the table.
Violette picked up her fork, speared a piece of steak and placed it on her plate.
âMy mom used to tell me all the time. Let the past be the past. Whether itâs people or events, once they pass, donât think about them anymore. It saves you a lot of worries.â
Odette said, âYour mom was wise. But itâs easier said than done.â
âIndeed. My mom loved my dad so much. After their divorce, she never got over it. Not until my dad passed away, and his will revealed he left his company and all his core technologies to me. My mom cried her heart out. Then she finally moved on. She felt all her grievances were worth it.â
âSometimes I just hate it. Why was your mom, such a good person, taken from us, while Alexa has yet to face retribution!â Odette gritted her teeth.
Violette lowered her gaze, murmuring, âLetâs eat.â
On the other side.
Upon seeing the girl in the white dress, surprise flickered in Elijahâs eyes.
âElijah, this is my cousin Nora,â Melinda introduced, âShe just graduated from college. Sheâs job hunting and I thought it would be nice if she could work with me.â
âElijah, nice to meet you. My name is Nora.â Nora spoke softly.
Elijah studied her face, taking in the uncanny resemblance.
Could there really be two people in this world, with no blood relation, who looked so alike?
âElijah, donât you think Nora looks a bit like Violette?â Melinda noticed his gaze lingering on Nora and quickly explained, âSheâs been studying abroad and I only met her two days ago.â
Nora blushed. âMy cousin told me I look like Violette, but I didnât believe her. When she showed me a picture, I realized we do look alike!â
Melinda laughed. âOnly a bit. Noraâs features are more defined.â
Nora turned even redder. âElijah, would you consider hiring me at your company?â
âWhatâs your major?â Elijah asked.
âBusiness Administration,â Nora replied sweetly. âElijah, if I can work for you, I will work hard and I wonât let you down.â
Elijah replied indifferently, âI donât need a secretary. But if you canât find a job, I can introduce you to a friendâs company, as a favor to Melinda.â
Melinda was taken aback.
So was Nora.
âElijah, I want her in our company. It would be easier for me to look after her.â Melinda swallowed her embarrassment and insisted.
Elijah replied, âThen arrange her in your department.â
Noraâs eyes welled up.
Under the table, Melinda squeezed her hand, telling Elijah, âThen Iâll arrange her in my department.â

ï¤Chapter 2341 Elijah said, âNo need to report things like this to me.â
His cold response to Nora was something Melinda had not expected.
Nora looked so much like Violette, but her features were more modern and exquisite. Any normal man would be attracted to her.
Instead of being attracted, he seemed repulsed.
