Chapter 240


    "Let''s have lunch together!" Elijah invited her.


    Violette looked up at him: "Have you been waiting outside the whole time?"


    Elijah didn''t deny it.


    He would have left long ago if he wasn''t waiting for her here.

    Violette nced at the sun.


    Although it was early autumn and the temperature wasn''t that hot, the midday sun was still quite


    scorching.


    "Where''s Maka?" she asked.


    Elijah nced towards the parking lot: "She''s in the car."


    "Oh... You guys go ahead! My mom cooked, so I''ll eat at home." Violette didn''t hesitate to reject him.


    Who knew what Elijah was thinking. He


    actually wanted her to eat with Maka?


    Didn''t he feel awkward?


    Even if he wanted to date three people at the same time, he didn''t have to be so direct about it!


    "I booked a restaurant nearby." Elijah didn''t get discouraged by her refusal, "I have to take Maka to


    schoolter, and you have to take Ian to school too, right? Let''s eat together and then take them to


    school."


    Violette pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and refused again: "We''ll eat at home. I''ll take the kid to


    school after he takes his nap."


    Elijah saw that talking nicely wouldn''t work, so he deliberately said: "It''s just a meal, what are you afraid


    of? Can''t we eat together after the divorce? Or do you still have feelings for me, so you can''t face me?"


    Violette was shocked and so pissed off by his words.


    She tried to maintain herposure, holding Ian''s hand, and walked boldly towards the nearby


    restaurant.


    Elijah went to the car to get Maka.


    After the four of them sat down in the restaurant, they started to order.


    At this moment, no one was talking at the table, and the atmosphere was a bit eerie.


    Violette ordered and handed the menu to Elijah


    , who took the menu and handed it to Maka, letting her order.


    Violette saw everything and felt her heart burning.


    She picked up the water jug, poured herself a ss of water, and then lifted the ss to drink.


    But it turned out, the water was boiling, and


    she suddenly got scalded!


    Seeing this, Elijah immediately got up from his seat, grabbed the water jug, and went to the service


    counter.


    In a moment, he brought back a jug of cold water and filled her ss.


    "Rinse your mouth with cold water." His voice was deep and powerful.


    She took a sip of the cold water and exined: "I''m fine."


    "What were you thinking? You''re so absent-minded." His eyes looked deeply at her.


    Her cheeks turned red, and she frowned: "It''s not you who got scalded, why do you care what I''m


    thinking?"


    "Did I upset you?" Elijah retracted his gaze, poured himself a ss of cold water, and took a leisurely


    sip.


    "I didn''t even want to eat with you in the first ce." Violette didn''t mince words, "If I find a man and act


    all lovey-dovey with him in front of you, let''s see if you can stomach it."


    Because the kid was there, she didn''t say these words very loudly.


    Elijah frowned: "Do you think Maka and I are acting intimate?"


    Violette lowered her head to y with her phone, not wanting to deal with him.


    If he didn''t think that was intimate, then it didn''t matter!


    What moral bottom line and principles did he have when he can date two women at the same time?


    Elijah knew what she was angry about.


    When she was scalded by the hot water, it was precisely when he handed the menu to Maka.


    He let Maka order, and she got jealous, which meant she cared about him.


    "Violette, stop ying with your phone." After saying that, he reached out and took her phone away.


    Violette was stunned.


    He wanted to put her phone down and then have a good talk with her.


    Although Maka and Ian were present, they usually didn''t talk and would never leak anything.
