Chapter 231
"You're so mean when you talk! My mom definitely taught me to knock before entering someone's
house! But she didn't say I had to knock before entering a bad guy's house!" Rita glared with her big,
bright eyes, her voice even louder than his.
It was as if they were competing to see whose voice was louder and stronger.
Elijah Bourne gritted his teeth: A bad guy?
Who taught her that?
"I don't even want to be in your house! I'm leaving now!" Rita huffed, got off the sofa, hugged her bunny
doll and walked toward the door!
Hospital.
After a series of routine checks, Violette Dennis asked Mike for his phone to call Albina.
Her phone had run out of battery, and s
he needed to call her mom to let her know she was okay.
Mike took out his phone and handed it to her.
The call was quickly connected.
Violette smiled and said, "Mom, it's Violette. I'm fine. I was just really tired yesterday and fell asleep.
Don't worry, I'm with Mike and Ian now, and we'll be home soon."
Albina: "That's good. I'll start cooking."
Violette: "Um, Mom, where's Rita? I miss her so much, and I want to hear her voice."
Albina was shocked, "Mike took Rita to find you! Is Rita not with you guys?!"
Violette's face changed, her fingers tightened on the phone, and her emotions collapsed in an instant.
Before she could freak out, Mike suddenly slapped his forehead: "I forgot about Rita! She must still be
at Elijah's house! I'll go pick her up right now!"
Without a second thought, Violette wanted to go with him.
"Wait for the test results here!" Mike said.
"You and Ian stay here! I'll go get Rita by myself!" Violette's tone left no room for argument. "I'll take
your phone for now! I'll meet up with you guys after I pick up Rita!"
Upon leaving the hospital, Violette hailed a cab on the roadside.
Once in the car, she used Mike's phone to call Elijah.
Hopefully, Rita was at Elijah's house and not somewhere else! Otherwise, it would be too dangerous!
The Bourne family.
Elijah held onto the sulking Rita, not letting her go.
Rita got angry when he held her!
"Let go of me! You bad man! You've held other women, don't hold me!" Rita yelled with a frown, her
little fists pounding him randomly!
Makayla felt sorry for her brother but didn't dare touch Rita, so she stood by with red eyes, watching.
At this moment, Elijah's phone on the table rang.
Lacey immediately brought his phone to him.
Elijah held Rita with one hand and answered the phone with the other.
"Elijah, it's Violette, is my daughter with you?" Her voice was very anxious. "I'm sorry for causing you so
much trouble."
Rita faintly heard her mom's voice and immediately snatched Elijah's phone: "Mom! Is that you?! I'm Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Rita!"
Violette's eyes reddened when she heard Rita's voice.
"Rita! I'm so sorry! I didn't know you were here, and I forgot to take you with us. Mommy will come get
you right away, don't be afraid..."
"I'm not scared! I knew you'd come get me."
After the call, Rita gave the phone back to Elijah.
Her shining eyes stared unblinkingly at his pale, slender neck, her little mouth pouting, "Which side of
your neck did my brother bite last time?"
Elijah pointed out the location to her.
"Oh... there's still a bite mark!" Rita said, and her little mouth leaned toward the unharmed side of his
neck to bite!
Elijah was speechless.
He thought she asked this question because she wanted to apologize for her brother, b
ut it turned out like this!
Elijah couldn't take it anymore. Even if this child was Violette's biological daughter, she was too
mischievous!
He had to give her a good beating right now!
