Chapter 500


    Living room.


    Rita burrowed into Mike''s arms, whining, "Elijah didn''t show up. We waited for him for ages... My mom


    had to call him to find out he wasn''ting... She took us to eat somewhere else."


    Mike wrapped Rita tightly in his arms, patting her back gently. "Sweetie, don''t be mad. It''s all his fault!


    From now on, we won''t dine with him anymore."


    Tears welled up in Rita''s eyes. "I''ll never eat with him again! I won''t let my mom eat with him either!"


    "Good! Sweetheart, stop crying. If your mom saw you this sad, it''d break her heart," Mike said, while in


    his mind, he was cursing Elijah up and down!


    It was Children''s Day, and other kids were having a st, but his two little angels were at home,


    heartbroken. That jerk!


    Elijah thought it was just about breaking a date, but he had no idea, he hurt two little hearts.


    Mike wanted to take them out to distract them, but they both shook their heads.


    After ying with them for a while, Mike took them to take a bath. Usually, Rita was thest one to go


    to bed, but tonight, after her bath, she climbed into bed and covered herself with her nket.


    Mike turned off the lights for them and left their room. He nced at Violette''s bedroom; she should still


    be awake.


    He wanted tofort her. After all, she was pregnant now, not like other people. What if she did


    something stupid?


    He walked to her door, knocked lightly, and pushed it open. The room was pitch ck.


    The hallway light shone in, and he could see her lying on her side of the bed, seemingly asleep. She


    usually didn''t go to bed this early, but even if she was pretending, he didn''t want to disturb her.


    He closed her door and went back to his own room. Joey had sent him several messages, asking


    about Violette''s situation. Reading these messages, Mike felt annoyed. [Is your boss asking you to do


    this? Is he even a man? Why doesn''t hee to see her himself?]


    Joey. [Can you talk on the phone now?]


    Mike. [I don''t feel like talking! I just don''t get it, what on earth has Violette done to deserve this jerk!]


    Joey called, and Mike picked up.


    "Go outside and check... I have a feeling my boss might show up," Joey said calmly. "Our driver said


    there was a car ident on the way to the city in the afternoon, which caused a dy. If it weren''t for


    the traffic jam, he wouldn''t have beente."


    "Is that the reason he waste?" Mike said sarcastically. "He already told me that it had something to


    do with Sarah."


    "But he''s already cut ties with Sarah!" Joey insisted. "He''s decided not to let Sarah treat Maka


    anymore. I didn''t tell you because I thought it was something he should do."


    Mike''s anger cooled a bit.


    Elijah was standing rigidly outside the gate, silent and motionless. His dark eyes fixed on Violette''s

    room, like a human statue.


    If what Joey just said was true, then he wasn''t entirely to me. Of course, that was just what Mike


    thought. Whether or not Violette would forgive him, Mike would not interfere. New ch?pter av?ble o?

    He opened the vi gate and walked towards the courtyard gate.


    Upon seeing Mikee out, Elijah immediately turned from a human statue into a living man.
