Chapter 453


    Violette stopped him, "Elijah, if I give you a kid back, can you promise not to bother me anymore? Like


    we agreed before."


    She didn''t want to get tangled up with him.


    He paused, his cold voice responding, "Give me the kid first, then we''ll talk."


    With that, he opened the door and walked out.


    "Elijah, are you okay?" Brandon had been waiting outside.


    Hearing themotion outside, Violette was getting antsy.


    She couldn''t suppress or shake off this feeling of irritation.


    As the footsteps outside faded away, she flopped onto the bed.


    After lying still for a few minutes, she picked up her phone and initiated a video call with Mike.


    Mike picked up immediately, "Violette, have you eaten yet?"


    Mike was ying with two kids, Violette could vaguely see someone moving in the kitchen.


    But Mike quickly adjusted the camera to focus on the kids.


    "Yeah, I did." Seeing the two kids, Violette felt a bit more rxed, "Ian, Rita, what game are you guys


    ying?"


    "We''re doing puzzles! I''m watching Ian do it. Because he won''t let me help, he says I''ll just mess it up."


    Rita pouted, "Mom, Joey made us dinner today."


    Mike was taken aback, "Rita, didn''t I tell you not to tell your mom about this? Didn''t you promise?"


    Rita looked innocent, "But I already told mom! She won''t be mad."


    Violette said, "Mike, did you forget we have surveince at home? I saw Joey''s car parked in our yard


    in the evening."


    Mike was speechless.


    Ritaughed, "Dumbass!"


    "Aren''t you on vacation? How do you have time to watch the surveince?" Mike was puzzled, "Are you


    lying in bed? What are you doing? If you''re going to sleep, why did you go so far to do it?"


    Listening to hisints, Violette said helplessly, "Someone showed up, so I hid in my room."


    "Someone?" Mike understood what she meant, "Elijah went too? God! He said he wouldn''t go!"


    Violette said, "Don''t mention him."


    Mike left the room with his phone.


    Joey, having heard their conversation, followed Mike out.


    "Violette, did he bother you again? That bastard!" Mike cursed.


    Violette said, "He won''t bother me with so many guests today."


    Mike asked, "You mean, if there weren''t so many guests, he would bother you?"

    Violette said, "Don''t worry. Nothing likest time will happen again."


    Mike said, "How can I not worry? He''s crazy."


    Joey couldn''t stand it anymore, he snatched Mike''s phone and said,


    "Violette, I''ve seen my boss''s medical report. He''s in great health, and he''s not crazy."


    Joey tried to exin, "He''s just a bit stubborn, doesn''t like people opposing him. As long as you don''t


    argue with him, he won''t hurt you."


    Actually, Joey was right, Elijah wasn''t that crazy.


    It was strange.


    She was always rational and calm in front of others.


    But in front of him, she became a different person.


    If he said something she didn''t like, she''d definitely make him feel worse.


    Joey said, "Oh, it''s nothing. Your bodyguard took a day off, so Mike asked me toe." Updated at

    Joey was speechless.


    Mike felt embarrassed. Could she not expose him like that?


    Violette hung up the video call with a smile.


    Suddenly, there was a sound of the door lock turning at the entrance.


    The next second, the door was pushed open.
