Chapter 103


    "My son has never lived in such a crappy ce since he was born...never! What kind of bad luck is


    this?! It’s all my fault! Why did I choose Violette to be his wife? Out of all the women, I had to pick this


    shameless slut!"


    ...


    In the room, Elijah’s breathing gradually became steady.


    Violette reached out and touched his forehead.


    There was sweat on his forehead, but the temperature was normal.


    Afraid that he might wake up thirsty during the night, she got out of bed and poured a cup of water for


    him, cing it on the bedside table next to him.


    The next morning, when Violette woke up, Elijah was no longer by her side.


    She picked up her phone and checked the time.


    It was already past eight in the morning.


    Elijah had sent her a message at around six in the morning: "Slept wellst night, I’m leaving first."


    Her cheeks flushed. Why did she feel so hot just by reading his message?


    She found the remote and turned off the air conditioner.


    After freshening up, she came out of the room, and Albina called her for breakfast.


    "What’s going on between you two?" Albina asked as she served Violette breakfast.


    "What do you mean?" Violette pretended not to understand.


    "Don’t y dumb. Weren’t you going to divorce him? I don’t think you two can do it." Albina sat across


    from her and said, "He doesn’t want to divorce you at all. He must like you quite a bit."


    Violette sighed, "Mom, what does it matter if he likes me? My worth shouldn’t be determined by a man."


    Albina: "But if he doesn’t divorce you, what will you do?"


    "If it reallyes to that, I’ll go abroad for graduate school."


    "Sounds good!"


    "Mom, just eat your breakfast and don’t think too much about it." Violette felt like every breath she took


    was filled with his scent.


    After finishing breakfast, she had to take a shower.


    Bourne Estate.


    Elijah, wrapped in a towel, walked out of the bathroom.


    He went to the wardrobe, got dressed, and then came to the dining room for breakfast.


    Lacey, seeing him wearing very little, was puzzled: "Sir, aren’t you cold?"


    "Not cold. I feel much better today."


    "That’s good! The doctor willeter; let them check on you."


    "No need. I’m going to the officeter." Elijah’s words shocked Lacey.


    Before he went to see Violette yesterday, he looked like he was seriously ill.


    But today, he seemedpletely normal.


    So, taking all that medicine before couldn’tpare to staying with Violette for a day?


    Bourne Group.


    When Elijah appeared at thepany, several executives couldn’t help but follow him to his office.


    "Boss, are you feeling better? I heard it was pretty serious."


    "Pfft! The boss just had a cold and fever, how serious could it be? Since the boss is here at the


    "Right! Boss, if you feel unwell, feel free to go home and rest. If there’s anything urgent, we’ll email you.


    You can work from home."


    ...


    Elijah ignored their concern and turned to Joey, "Call Melinda in."


    Joey immediately called Melinda, and the others tactfully left.


    "Elijah, why did you suddenlye to work? Did the doctor agree?" Melinda saw him looking unwell


    and was worried.


    "Melinda, your dad’s birthday ising up, right?"


    A hint of surprise shed in Melinda’s eyes: "Yeah, it’s this weekend. I didn’t tell you because you were


    sick."


    Elijah: "I’ll be there."


    Melinda’s lips curved up, and she was overjoyed: "Great! I was worried you wouldn’t want to go! My

    dad will be so happy to see you."


    "Melinda, I have a wife. I’m going to your dad’s birthday party because your brother invited my wife."


    Elijah’s words shattered all of Melinda’s illusions.
