Chapter 399


    But looking at the text message from Mike, Joey decided to hold it in.


    Forget it, who cared!


    Just pretended not to know anything.


    The boss had really crossed the line this time.


    How could he take Violette away and not even let her contact her family?


    If he were Mike, he would be livid too.


    In a blink, it was already 11 am.


    Ian didn''t cause any trouble at the funeral. In fact, Joey hadn''t seen him at all.


    He wondered what Ian''s n was.


    Whatever his n was, he probably chickened out.


    After the funeral, the guests went to a hotel for lunch.


    Joey headed straight for Elijah.


    "Boss."


    Elijah stopped, giving him a cold look.


    Joey awkwardly said, "My condolences."


    Upon hearing this, Elijah headed towards the parking lot.


    Joey quickly caught up with him and bravely asked, "Boss, is Ms. Dennis with you? Her kids are really


    worried about her safety..."


    Elijah swallowed hard and croaked, "She''s not dead."


    Joey: "???"


    What kind of answer was that?


    She''s not dead, does that mean she''s alive? But not in a good state?


    She could be dying and still technically not be dead.


    So, what was her actual condition?


    Before Joey could process it, Elijah was already near his ck Rolls-Royce.


    His bodyguard opened the door and helplessly reported, "Miss Maka insists on waiting in the car for


    you."


    Maka looked up at Elijah, her eyes clear. "Brother, I want to be with you. Wherever you go, I go."

    Elijah stood at the car door, looking at his stubborn sister, lost for words.


    He got into the car and closed the door.


    "Maka, I''ll take you home."


    Maka, her eyes slightly red, shook her head.


    "I have some things to finish. I''ll be home as soon as I''m done," He held her hand, trying to reason with


    her.


    "Brother, you''re a good person, so why are you so mean to Violette?" Maka was very upset talking


    about it, "I heard you say you''re going to kill Violette. I''m scared..."


    Elijah squeezed her hand, patiently exining, "I was just trying to scare the kids. Maka, you''re not


    a kid, so you won''t be fooled, right?"


    Maka: "Can you stop being mean to Violette? If you''re mean to Violette, Rita and Ian won''t y with


    me."


    Elijah''s eyes darkened: "Maka, stop overthinking. Stay at home and wait for me."


    Even though Maka didn''t get the answer she wanted, she obediently nodded her head.


    After dropping Maka off at home, Elijah quickly got back in the car.


    The ck Rolls-Royce, like a shadow, sped northward.


    Mansion.


    Violette was lying on arge white bed, slowly opening her eyes.


    When she escapedst night, she encountered a wolf in the forest.


    She was very lucky, the wolf bit her only once, and she also stabbed the wolf once. New chаpter

    It was a draw.


    After being stabbed, the wolf ran away in panic.


    And she passed out due to excessive blood loss.


    Before she passed out, she was sure she was going to die.


    But she was still alive...


    Was it Elijah who brought her backst night?
