Chapter 193
She thought for a moment about why Ian was angry.
Could it be because she asked him to take her away from school and got blamed for it?
Other than that, she couldn't think of any other reason.
Ian got even angrier when he heard her apology!
Was she admitting to the improper relationship between her and Elijah, which led to his mom and dad's
divorce?!
"Don't follow me!" Ian yelled at her without mercy, "I hate you!"
Makayla's footsteps stopped, and tears fell.
Lacey saw this scene and immediately took Makayla to sit on the sofa: "Makayla, don't cry. If he doesn't
want to be friends with you, then don't follow him."
Ian was an irritable person, and Makayla would only hurt herself by acting like this.
But Makayla didn't want to lose Ian as a good friend, s
o she kept shaking her head.
Lacey immediately held her head, telling her not to shake it anymore: "Don't shake your head; you'll get
a headache. You sit here, and I'll go ask Ian what it'll take for him to be friends with you, okay?"
Makayla finally nodded obediently.
Lacey picked up two pieces of chocolate from the coffee table and walked up to Ian.
"Ian, I used to have a good relationship with your mom," Lacey said with a kind smile, placing the
chocolate in Ian's hand.
Ian thought of the affectionate look his mom gave her earlier, so he didn't throw the chocolate away.
"Makayla is only as smart as a child; she shouldn't have done anything to hurt you, right? Why do you
hate her so much?" Lacey asked him.
"I hate her! I don't need a reason!" Ian said before walking towards the door.
Lacey didn't follow him.
She probably knew that Ian must be disgusted by Makayla's low intelligence.
Lacey felt a bit sorry for Makayla, but she couldn't bring herself to hate Ian.
Ian was very similar to Elijah, but he wasn't Elijah's child.
Could this be just a coincidence?
Lacey returned to Makayla's side, handing her a tissue to wipe her tears: "Makayla, I know a way to
make everyone like you."
Makayla looked at Lacey with curiosity.
"That is to study hard, get proper treatment, and recover as soon as possible," Lacey said with a look
of pity, "then everyone will like you."
Makayla believed Lacey's words.
In the study, the topic of Violette and the blond man finally ended.
That was because Violette told him: the more he disliked Mike, the more she would like Mike.
Violette knew how to win arguments too well, s This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
o Elijah didn't mention Mike anymore.
She thought she could finally leave, but he had more to say.
Violette watched as he pulled out a photo
, which showed a surveillance video from Mercy Hospital.
It was the day Violette had finished surgery on Makayla, and the two children came to the hospital to
find her. She left with the two children in the picture.
"The little girl in your arms, is she also adopted by you?" Elijah's eyes fell on her face.
Violette threw the photo into the trash and casually said, "Yes! Both of these kids are adopted by me.
Are you asking this because you want to adopt a child? Oh, I almost forgot, you don't like kids."
Elijah: "You don't even have time to take care of children. Why adopt two of them?"
Violette: "Whether I have time or not, what's it to you?"
Violette checked the time, and it was almost six o'clock.
She had to take Ian home.
She strode out of the study.
Entering the living room, she saw a woman with long hair and a light purple dress.
Was this woman Elijah's new girlfriend, Sarah?
