Chapter 602


    If she didn’t seek him out tonight, she knew she’d definitely suffer from insomnia. Her hope was to


    see Kylee’s career back on track as soon as possible. Otherwise, the unsettling feeling within her


    would be relentless.


    After a moment''s hesitation, she emerged from her room. Her kids were sound asleep, and the


    house was as quiet as a church mouse. She could even hear her heart beating like a drum.


    What was she afraid of? She was carrying his baby. He would never dare harm her.


    The nanny and the bodyguard had gone off duty, so she drove alone to Elijah''s mansion.


    Forty minutester, the car halted at his front gate. As she got out of the car, the security guard,


    under the glow of the streetlight, recognized her and immediately opened the gate. Who would dare


    stop her now that she was carrying Elijah''s child?


    As she reached the mansion''s front door, Lacey hurried over, knelt down, and started to remove her


    shoes.


    “I can do it myself,” she quickly intervened.


    Lacey replied, “Violette, you’re carrying a child now, so you shouldn’t be bending over if you can


    help it. Mr. Elijah said you wereing over, so I made you some soup.”


    She hadn’t eaten much since the evening and was feeling a bit peckish.


    “He told you I wasing over?” Her heart skipped a beat.


    “Yes! He asked me to prepare some food.” Lacey finished helping Violette with her shoes and


    guided her towards the dining room. “I made some of your favorite dishes, but I’m not sure if they’ll


    suit your current appetite. It’s quitemon for the appetite to change drastically during


    pregnancy!”


    Violette was a little dazed. She came here to see Elijah, not to have a midnight snack, but Lacey


    was so hospitable that it was hard for her to refuse.


    Once she was seated in the dining room, Lacey brought out two dishes, a bowl of soup, and a te


    of sd.


    After taking a sip of the soup, she asked, “Elijah hasn’t gone to bed, has he? I need to talk to him.”


    It was almost 11 o’clock now, and she was regretting her impulsive decision. Lacey assured her, “No


    way. He knew you wereing, why would he go to bed? Once you’ve finished eating, I can go get


    him.”


    Violette sighed with relief. “The soup is delicious.”


    “Don’t drink too much, or else you’ll be running to the bathroom all night. That can affect your sleep


    quality.” Lacey was smiling, but her eyes betrayed a hint of worry. “Violette, you’re heavily pregnant


    now. It’s not good for you to get worked up. If you have any issues with Mr. Elijah, you should


    communicate properly…”


    Violette replied, “I will, I’llmunicate with him properly.”


    After finishing her meal, Violette left the dining room.


    Elijah, dressed in casual attire, was sitting in the living room. She didn’t know when he hade


    downstairs.


    As she approached him, ready to speak, his voice preempted her, “Didn’t feel like wearing that


    sultry dress of yours? Am I not worth it?”


    His icy tone sent ripples through her calm heart. She wanted to have a proper conversation with


    him, but clearly, he didn’t.


    “Elijah, stop being unreasonable! What I wear is my business.” Her cheeks med, and she sat


    down on the sofa across from him. “It’ste, let’s keep this short. You need to lift the ban on Kylee


    immediately. I don’t want innocent people to be caught up in our issues.”


    “Innocent? He wants to y stepdad to my child. You think he’s innocent?” Elijah''s lips curled up in


    a cold smirk. “If I don’t teach him a lesson, that boy toy will think he can walk all over me!”


    “Can you not be so rude? He left his credit card with me for safekeeping until he gets married, that''s


    all!” Violette’s voice rose in frustration.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
