Chapter 318


    He dialed her number again, but all he got was the same robotic tone.


    He couldn''t believe it! How dare Violette hang up on him? Or maybe her phone was off?


    He scrolled through his contacts, found Mike''s number, and called him.


    The two of them lived in the same house and were business partners, practically with each other all the


    time.


    Mike looked at the iing call from Elijah, very puzzled. What was he calling for? Were they that


    close?


    He nced at Violette on the bed...and suddenly everything clicked.


    Mike picked up the call, and before he could say anything, Elijah''s voice came through, "I need to talk


    to Violette!"


    Mike was dumbfounded. Why was Elijah so aggressive?


    "Violette is sleeping! What do you want with her?" Mike looked at Violette''s sleeping face, not wanting


    to yell at Elijah.


    She had rushed over three hours ago, not saying a word, and fell asleep as soon as shey down.


    Mike originally nned to leave first, but then realized she didn''t bring anything with her, so he had to


    wait here.


    "Wake her up! I have something important to discuss with her!" Elijah''s tone was forceful and


    irrefutable.


    Last night, Maka disappeared in Lavender Lane, and Violette left the neighborhood in her car in the


    middle of the night. Then, Maka was taken to Mercy Hospital. Coincidentally, several key


    surveince cameras at Mercy Hospital were broken fromst night until now.


    He hated being deceived! This matter must have something to do with Violette!


    Mike sensed from his tone that it wasn''t a simple matter.


    He bent down and gently patted Violette''s back, "Violette! Wake up! Your ex-husband is looking for


    you!"


    Ex-husband!


    This term made Elijah frown. He really didn''t like this word. But Mike always called him that.

    Violette didn''t move, with no reaction at all. She must have been up all night to be this tired.


    "Violette! Elijah is looking for you! Elijah! If you don''t wake up, that jerk is gonnae here and catch


    you!" Mike raised his voice, threatening her by her ear.


    Violette was sessfully awakened.


    She rubbed her eyes and looked around, dazed.


    "Elijah... where is he?"


    "Here!" Mike handed her the phone, "Looks like he wants to argue with you, better be prepared."


    Violette took the phone and pointed at a bottle of water on the bedside table with her other hand, "Get


    me that water, I''m a bit thirsty."


    Elijah heard her hoarse voice and became even more certain. She must have been with Makast


    night. That was why she didn''t sleep! Otherwise, how could she still be asleep now?


    Mike unscrewed the water bottle and handed it to her.


    After taking a big gulp of water, she held the phone to her ear andzily said "Hello?"
