Chapter 285
She slammed the door shut and locked it.
Mike saw that the argument was over and immediately took Makayla out.
"Hey! Mr. Bourne..." Mike wanted to say something for Violette.
Elijah glared at him fiercely, "Shut up!"
Mike shut up and watched him walk over to Makayla and take her away.
Outside the villa, there was a light rain.
Elijah took off his coat and put it over Makayla's head.
Once inside the car, Makayla hugged his coat and looked out the window at the villa.
Elijah buckled her seatbelt and whispered, "Makayla, don't look anymore."
"Brother, I'm sorry." Makayla said, with tears streaming down her face.
"Makayla, you did nothing wrong, and you don't have to apologize to anyone." Elijah wiped the tears
from her eyes.
Makayla cried harder, "Brother, it's me... I was afraid of the surgery... I ran away on my own... I asked
Ian to take me." NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
She didn't dare say it earlier, but now she finally had the courage to tell the truth.
Elijah thought of Violette's cold eyes.
Why didn't she explain?
Was it fun for her to make him angry?
"Brother, don't blame Violette... She was really nice to me... When I was sick, she took care of me."
Makayla choked up, recalling the scene from that night, "She gave me an injection... Violette is
amazing."
Elijah wiped her tears with a tissue, "You asked Ian to take you to his house, then you got sick and
Violette treated you... What happened after that? Did she take you to the hospital?"
Makayla looked at him with teary eyes, "I don't remember... I just remember Violette being really nice to
me. She's not like how she was tonight... She's not a bad person."
"She called you a fool, and you're not mad?" Elijah's eyes were sore.
Even thinking about it now, his heart still hurt.
He knew Violette wasn't a bad person, but her words deeply hurt him.
Makayla hadn't been so bad at first, but her father's domestic violence made her like this.
He couldn't allow anyone to bully Makayla anymore!
Makayla's eyes were red, and she shook her head, "You asked Dr. Sarah to treat me because I'm a
fool, right?"
Elijah hugged her tightly and explained, "Makayla, that's not it! You're not a fool. I asked Dr. Sarah to
treat you so you could better experience the world."
"Because I'm a fool, I'm not smart. Brother, I am a fool, Violette wasn't wrong, and I'm not mad. You
shouldn't be mad either, okay?"
Makayla's voice was pleading.
Elijah heard his sister's kind voice, and his emotions collapsed.
He held the steering wheel with one hand, his head slightly raised, and tears silently fell.
"Being a fool isn't so bad, right?" Makayla hugged the coat tightly, took a deep breath, and murmured,
"As long as my brother is always with me, I'm willing to be a fool forever."
Elijah's lips moved, but he couldn't say anything in the end.
He must cure his sister's illness.
She won't be a fool forever!
In the villa.
Violette lay in bed in pain, feeling no different from being dead.
She could have been less emotional and explained everything properly.
But she couldn't.
Because his attitude pissed her off!
From the moment he entered, he didn't respect her, let alone listen to her explanation patiently.
He came over tonight just to pick a fight.
This was her home; why should she be wronged?
She covered her face with a pillow.
She regretted it.
She shouldn't have called Makayla a fool.
How was that different from Elijah accusing her of deliberately taking Makayla away?
How could she vent her anger at Makayla because of Elijah's harsh words?
But it was too late.
She heard the sound of a car engine starting outside the window.
