Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 35

Violette chimed in, "Yeah, he's loaded. But he's old, unattractive, and in poor health."

Everyone was stunned.

So, who could this old, ugly, and unhealthy rich man be?

"Miss Dennis, you may proceed to the second floor now," a server informed her.

Violette quickly looked up.

The house had an open courtyard design.

From the first floor living room, one could see the railing on the second floor.

Elijah's bodyguard was standing by the railing, looking down at her from above.

After Violette followed the waiter upstairs, t

he people who had been mocking Violette just a moment ago suddenly changed their expressions.

The banquet tonight was attended by all wealthy or noble individuals.

But even among the rich, there were different levels.

For instance, tonight, the average rich people were arranged on the first floor banquet hall.

While those with great social influence were arranged on the second floor.

"Violette was assigned to the second floor. Who the heck is her sponsor?"

"I have no clue! We can't get to the second floor. All I can say is, Violette sure has some tricks up her sleeve! Even if her sponsor is old and ugly, she's scored!"

"As far as I know, there are no old guests tonight!"

"Was Violette lying to us earlier?"

Everyone turned their gaze to the second floor, b

ut they couldn't see anything.

Second floor.

There weren't many people here; less than ten men sat around a round table.

Violette sat down next to Elijah.

The table was laden with delicious dishes.

"I'm not interested in your conversation, so I'll be leaving now!"

When she got up from her chair,

Elijah reached out and grabbed her arm, stopping her from leaving.

She forcefully shook off his hand, her eyes flashing with slight anger, "Elijah, you're so annoying. I need to go back and write my paper! If you won't let me leave, I'll send my paper to your email and you can finish it for me."

Seeing her angry, Elijah let go of her.

As she descended from the second floor and reached the first, she saw Kaleb flattering a group of people.

She had long lost her feelings for Kaleb, so she quickly averted her gaze and strode out of the mansion.

10 o'clock at night.

A black Rolls-Royce drove into the Bourne family estate.

When Lacey saw Elijah return, she curiously asked, "Sir, didn't the madam come back with you?"

Elijah lifted his wrist, glanced at his watch, and frowned slightly, "She left at eight, didn't she come back?"
