Chapter 398
By the time they returned to the villa, they were soaking wet.
Now, it's past three in the morning.
There were still a few people drinking in the lounge.
Although it looked like they were just drinking, they were actually waiting for Elijah to come back.
When they saw Elijah carrying Violette, everyone stood up from the sofa.
Someone should have said something to break the awkward silence, but no one dared to speak.
Elijah was only wearing a thin T-shirt which was clinging to his skin because of the rain.
Water was dripping down from his hair.
His deep eyes were filled with a dark and desperate light.
The woman he was carrying was wrapped in his robe, with only her face exposed.
Her face was pale, and her eyes closed as if she would never open them again.
The scene was filled with desolation and misery!
Carrying Violette, he strode upstairs and disappeared.
......
After Grace Bourne's autopsy results came out, Travis Bourne immediately snapped a picture of the
results and sent it to Elijah.
She wasn't poisoned, and there were no other injuries to her body apart from the fall.
According to the medical examiner, Grace died from the fall.
Travis consulted a renowned astrologer, who said the best time to hold the funeral was the next day.
Upon receiving Elijah's response, Travis immediately notified friends and family about the funeral time.
Silverleaf Ridge district.
Joey came to visit Makayla.
Makayla was being well taken care of.
In fact, after her second surgery, Makayla became smarter than before.
Although she still needed care, her ability to take care of herself was much better than that of a few
years old kid.
"My boss' mom's funeral is tomorrow," Joey told Mike, "He's definitely going. Perhaps he'll bring
Violette back with him."
Mike nodded, "Can you take me to the funeral?"
Joey was shocked, "Only a few executives from our company were invited. I'm just a little assistant, I
don't have the right to bring anyone. And what are you going to do at the funeral? If you mess around,
you'll be taken down by the bodyguards on the spot, you know?"
Mike certainly didn't want to get himself killed.
But he had lost contact with Violette for two days.
Not only was he anxious, but the kids' spirits were also getting low.
If Violette didn't come back, he didn't know what to do.
Ian overheard their conversation, his mind started to race.
He needed to find a way to find his mom!
He had to bring his mom back!
The next day was Grace's funeral.
The funeral was very grand and solemn.
The security team had the place surrounded, not even a bug could get in.
He appeared before everyone.
Joey secretly messaged Mike, "My boss is alone. He didn't bring Violette."
Mike replied, "Damn it!"
Joey: "Calm down, I'll ask him after the funeral."
Mike: "I'm already outside."
Joey: "You're here?!"
Mike: "Yeah, I brought Ian and Makayla." Updated at Drаmanovels.comAll content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Mike: Touching. You actually care about me.
Joey: ......
Joey: ..........
Ian Dennis... this little punk, was he planning to make a scene at the funeral?
Joey felt a headache coming on and wanted to tell Elijah about this.
