Chapter 281


    "If you were dating Joey, would you tell him?" Violette felt a bit uneasy inside, so she asked again.


    Mike said, "Even if he were my wife, I wouldn''t say a word as long as you don''t want me to. You''re my

    savior, and you''ll always be the most important person to me!"


    Violette breathed a sigh of relief and showed him the door.


    The next day.


    Joey, with a nasty hangover, made his way to the office.


    Elijah nced at him, "How did you get so wasted?"


    "Mike got me drunk on purposest night! I didn''t have a chance to ask him anything before he


    knocked me out." Joey''s head was pounding now, "I didn''t get any info, but I did notice a scar on his


    head."


    "A noticeable scar?"


    "Yeah. He must''ve had brain surgery." Joey said confidently.


    "Brain surgery is no small deal." Elijah frowned and whispered, "Ask him about it next time. And don''t


    drink with him, just ask him straight up. Go home and rest!"


    "Alright." Joey''s head hurt like hell, but he was still clear-headed, "Boss, are you investigating Mike


    because you suspect Ms. Dennis?"


    Elijah replied, "Don''t you think she''s strange?"


    "Yeah! I think she''s weird too! She clearly loves you, so why did she divorce you?" Joey was puzzled, "I


    know she''s jealous of Maka. But can''t she be more tolerant of people with special needs? I''m kinda


    disappointed!"


    Elijah: "..."


    His words made no sense.


    "Go home and rest. Don''te to work with a hangover in the future." Elijah turned and walked away.


    Violette had no idea about Maka''s intellectual disability when they divorced.


    He never med Violette.


    If anyone was at fault, it was him.


    ...


    Five in the afternoon.


    Elijah got a call from Sarah Warren.


    "Elijah, my dad''s back. Are you busy? He wants to have dinner with you."


    Elijah checked the time and said, "Alright."


    "By the way, I told you before that my parents are divorced. My dad will bring his new girlfriend to


    dinner, you don''t mind, do you?" Sarah hesitated before telling the truth.


    "I don''t mind." Elijah replied.


    He didn''t care much about Sarah Warren, and he was even less interested in her father''s new


    girlfriend.


    An hourter.


    Elijah met Sarah Warren''s father and his new girlfriend.


    For a moment, his mind went nk, and he forgot what to say and do.


    His sharp gaze fell on the new girlfriend.


    "Mr. Bourne, do you know me?" Alexa smiled and said, "Although we had a distant family connection


    before, we''ve never met! I never thought we''d meet like this."


    Elijah''s face grew even colder.


    The atmosphere was awkward.


    At that moment, Elijah''s phone rang.


    He picked up the call and walked out of the restaurant with big strides.
