Chapter 631

“It poured cats and dogs last night. How did you leave the door open?” Mike had already guessed what had happened, but he didn’t want to make it explicit. If she still didn’t want to talk about it, he wouldn’t press her.

“Sarah claims she heard my voice when her eyes were gouged out,” Violette said. Her voice was as cold as her expression. “Such a poor lie, but some people believed it.”

Mike said, “Luckily, Adrian can vouch for you. But, what were you doing at Adrian’s place yesterday?”

“Just some work stuff,” she brushed it off. “But if I tell that to others, they probably won’t believe me.”

“Why? Do you and Adrian have some romantic thing going on? If that were the case, you would’ve been together by now,” Mike teased. “But honestly, I quite like Adrian’s type of man. It’s just that usually, they attract the bad girls.”

Violette retorted, “Adrian would never get involved with a bad girl.”

“I didn’t say Adrian would be with a bad girl. I said he attracts bad girls.”

“Don’t say that! Good girls can like Adrian too!”

“Alright, alright! My bad. Adrian will definitely find a good woman,” Mike conceded, and only then did Violette let him off the hook.

After she finished her soup, Mike took the empty bowl away. “If Elijah finds out you spent the whole day at Adrian’s, he won’t be as understanding as I am,” Mike said. “You’ve already submitted the evidence. Chances are he’ll find it out!”

“He already knows about last night.” Violette’s eyes dropped. “He not only suspects that I harmed Sarah, but he also doubts my relationship with Adrian.”

“Just explain it to him. I don’t understand why you, being as innocent as you are, have anything to argue about,” Mike sighed.

“I’ve already submitted the evidence. As for what I was doing at Adrian’s, I need to tell him the details to make him believe me, but I can’t. It involves patient confidentiality. Even if I did tell him, he’d still be angry. He warned me not to take on any more private work.”

Mike was taken aback. “Since when did you start taking on private work again?! Violette, you’re heavily pregnant. How could you?!”

“See, if you’re reacting like this, do you think what he will feel like?”

Mike said, “Well, I may overreact, but I can’t stop you.”

Chapter 2341 “He can’t stop me either, but he’ll be angry with me,” Violette said, feeling a headache coming on. “Please leave. I need to rest.”

“Alright... let me check your temperature.” Mike touched her forehead. Thankfully, her temperature was normal.

“Violette, Ian has a day off the day after tomorrow. If you’re not feeling well, just stay home. I’ll go to B Country to look after him.” Mike stood by her bed, discussing with her.

“I’ll go myself.” She hadn’t forgotten about this. “I’m fine.”

“Then I’ll accompany you.” Mike’s tone was firm. Even if she refused, he wouldn’t back down.

...

After Adrian left Silverleaf Ridge, he was so restless that he parked his car on the roadside. He unlocked his phone, found Makayla’s number, and dialed it. After a moment, the call was answered, but it wasn’t Makayla’s voice he heard.

“Makayla doesn’t need your tutoring anymore.” Elijah’s cold voice came through, “Don’t contact her again.”

“Why?” Adrian frowned. “Give the phone to Makayla. Unless she tells me this herself, I won’t accept it.”

“You won’t accept it?” Elijah’s voice was laced with derision. “I don’t accept you and Violette keeping secrets from me!”

“So that’s why.” Adrian’s voice softened. After a few seconds of consideration, he said, “Elijah, if I tell you everything, will you stop tormenting Violette? She had a fever last night and kept muttering your name...”
