Chapter 600
Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom
Inside the black Rolls-Royce, Joey hung up a call and turned to Elijah.
âBoss, Mike just called to invite me to join them for dinner at the hotel,â Joey said hesitantly, âWould you like to come?â
Elijahâs expression darkened. âThey didnât invite me. Why should I go?â
Feeling embarrassed, Joey added, âI heard Violette tried to call you this morning, but couldnât reach you. Maybe you should meet and talk things over? Despite her dazzling smile on her live stream tonight, Mike said sheâs actually quite upset. I suspect she dressed up like this just to get under your skin.â
Elijahâs dark eyes brimmed with icy menace. âHow do you know she didnât dress like this for Kyleeâs benefit?â
Sensing his simmering rage, Joey fell silent.
At the hotel.
Kylee was demonstrating how to operate the latest drone model from the Dennis Group. Upon popular demand, he then started singing.
The live stream instantly turned into an online concert.
Violette descended from the stage. Mike offered her a light jacket, but she declined.
âItâs summer. Iâm not cold.â
Mike replied, âThe air conditioning is a bit chilly though.â
âIâm not cold.â Violette placed her palm on his hand, letting him feel her temperature. âPregnant women tend to feel warm.â
âAlright! A few journalists asked me earlier. Theyâre quite interested in the father of your child.â Mike massaged his temples. âThe number of viewers tonight exceeded my expectations... By tomorrow, practically everyone online will know about your pregnancy.â
Violette had considered this outcome, but she wasnât afraid.
âBeing pregnant is nothing to be ashamed of. It wonât matter if people know it.â
âBut youâre not married!â Mike pointed out the crux. âPeople are particularly curious about the father of your child.â
Violette shrugged. âThatâs their concern, not mine. I wonât let others influence my life.â
âOh... so youâre not afraid that people will find out that Elijah is the father?â Mike uncapped a bottle of mineral water, handing it to her.
âI canât just hide away because Iâm afraid people will find out, can I?â Violette took the water and took a sip. âBesides, I wouldnât be doing this tonight if he didnât provoke me.â
Mikeâs gaze dropped a bit, glancing at her chest. âThis is the first time Iâve seen you in such a sexy dress. I never realized you have such a great figure... but I suspect someone will go crazy tonight. Hahaha!â
Violette knew who he was referring to, but she didnât care about that personâs feelings.
âAre you tired? If you are, I can take you home.â Mike suggested. âI called Joey earlier. He said he and his boss are back, so I invited him to join us for dinner. Who knows? He might bring his boss along.â
Violette raised an eyebrow. âWho told you to invite Joey to dinner?â
Mike scratched his head. âYou and Elijah had a fight, but it doesnât mean I canât date!â
âFine! Iâm not tired. Gonna leave with Kylee later.â Violette handed the water bottle back to him. âIâm going to listen to Kylee sing.â
A moment later, as Kylee finished his song, he invited Violette on stage to sing a duet.
All eyes instantly focused on Violette.
Blushing slightly, she picked up her skirt, preparing to ascend the stage.
Just then, a tall, dark figure appeared at the entrance of the venue.
Mike spotted Elijah next to Joey, surprised but not shocked.
He had informed Joey about the live stream earlier.
So, Elijah would have definitely tuned in.
The sight of Violetteâs stunning beauty alone, as well as her intimate interactions with Kylee, was bound to get under his skin.
Inwardly, Mike was impressed by Violetteâs strategic move.
She knew exactly how to make this proud man bend.

Violette looked towards the entrance. Elijah had already made his way in.
His intense and aloof gaze was fixed on her. The haughty aura emanating from him made him stand out from the crowd.
