Chapter 118
He widened his eyes and blew out the candle.
The curtains were drawn, and sunlight streamed in through the window.
"Elijah, what did you wish for?" Brandon asked with a grin.
Elijah shot back, "Do you tell everyone your wishes every time you have a birthday?"
Everyone laughed.
Elijah cut a piece of cake and placed it in front of Violette.
"The first piece is for you." Violette pushed the cake back towards him.
"I can't eat that much." He put down the knife, picked up a fork and took a small bite. He then handed
the cake back to her.
Between the two of them, it was as if a huge love bubble separated them from everyone else.
Everyone started joking around—
"Should we start calling Violette Mrs. Bourne now?"
"Why don't you give it a try? I don't think the boss would mind!"
"Hahaha! Ms. Dennis probably wouldn't mind either, right?"
...
Violette blushed and fidgeted uncomfortably, her skin turning red even down to her neck.
"Enough, you guys," Elijah said.
"Alright, alright... Let's eat cake!!" Everyone divided the remaining cake among themselves.
After finishing the cake, they officially started lunch.
"Ms. Dennis, would you like some wine?" Brandon asked Violette, holding a bottle.
Violette shook her head, "I'll just have water."
"How can you just drink water? How about some milk or juice?" Brandon asked.
Violette said, "I'll just have water."
She felt a little dizzy,
probably because of getting up too early and the smell of alcohol in the room.
Brandon poured her a glass of water and, seeing she didn't eat much, asked her,
"Are you feeling uncomfortable? Don't be nervous... We're good friends with Elijah, like brothers..."
Brandon tried hard to make her relax.
Violette’s eyelids drooped a little and said honestly, "I'm not nervous, I'm just full from the cake and a bit
sleepy."
Brandon immediately stood up and enthusiastically said, "I'll take you to the guest room to rest."
Elijah gripped Violette's hand under the table and firmly looked at Brandon, "I'll take her."
Someone pulled Brandon back to sit down.
Brandon laughed helplessly, "Don't go and not come back, I still want to have a drink with you!"
Violette pulled her hand out of his, "I'll just let the waiter take me. You stay here and eat."
Elijah said, "I'll take you."
His tone was very determined.
Violette felt that he was different after his injury.
Before, his dominance was annoying, but now, she couldn't refuse him.
She had realized that even if he didn't look nice, he wouldn't hurt her.
Violette pushed his wheelchair out, and they quickly disappeared from the private room.
"I never thought our boss would spoil a woman so much. I thought he wasn't interested in women!"
"He just hadn't met the right person before. Now Violette has him wrapped around her finger."
"Are you sure it's Violette who has control over the boss? I think Violette respects our boss too!
Otherwise, would she knit a sweater for him? Ask how many women still knit sweaters these days."
Brandon saw them starting to argue and laughed, "Stop arguing! They both have an influence on each
other. Elijah definitely has feelings for Violette, and Violette has given a lot to Elijah... If Violette only
thought about herself, the Dennis Group wouldn't go bankrupt. Elijah planned to give her 500 million,
but she refused. If it were you, could you refuse that 500 million?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"No wonder the boss likes Violette so much. It's hard to find a second woman who doesn't care about
money like her!"
"Hahaha! Let's bet on whether the boss will come back for dinner or not." Brandon spoke up, "I bet he
won't."
Everyone else chimed in, "We bet he won't come back either."
