Chapter 120
All of a sudden, there was a loud bang!
Followed by the screeching sound of car tires skidding on the ground!
It felt like her eardrums were about to burst!
Violette hugged Elijah tightly in his wheelchair, h
er face covered in tears.
Her body was shaking uncontrollably.
The black sedan's tires blew out, and it swerved abruptly past them, crashing into a cotton candy stand
on the opposite side!
Elijah held her tightly with both hands and glanced at the black sedan.
Someone wanted him dead, b
ut they didn't succeed.
Then, a second gunshot rang out!
This time, the bullet struck the driver's cabin of the black sedan!
People screamed in panic and scattered in all directions.
Violette's body temperature seemed to drop completely.
Elijah held her face with both hands, looking at her frightened little face, and whispered, "Don't be
afraid, it's over now."
Her chest heaved rapidly, her eyes flickering, but still fixated on him, "Elijah...Elijah..."
She wanted to say something, but all she could do was repeat his name.
"Violette, I'm fine." He held her hand and touched his own cheek, "I'm still warm, right?"
She nodded, tears silently falling, "I was so scared...so scared you would die..."
"I am strong! Nobody can take my life unless I want them to." He held her hand tightly and suggested,
"Let's go have some lamb chops."
Violette gripped the wheelchair handles and quickly pushed him away.
They found a restaurant, and not long after they sat down, Brandon and his friends arrived.
"Elijah, are you okay?" Brandon sat down next to Elijah, "When I heard the gunshot, I knew someone
was after you!"
Elijah said, "I'm fine, let's eat first."
He put some sliced lamb chops on Violette's plate.
Her emotions had stabilized quite a bit compared to before.
"Who fired the shot?" She asked Elijah.
If it weren't for someone shooting out the tires of that sedan, she and Elijah wouldn't be sitting here
eating lamb now.
"Since Elijah's last incident, we've increased security. There were guards on the rooftop of the place we
ate today." Brandon answered her question.
"Oh..." Violette said.
"Ms. Dennis, you must be terrified, right?" Brandon served her a bowl of vegetable soup, "Have some
soup to calm down."
"I'm not hungry." Violette had no appetite after the ordeal.
"Scared full?" Brandon joked, "Why don't we have a driver take you guys back?"
Elijah looked at Violette.
Violette asked, "Why are you looking at me?"
Elijah picked up his phone and started typing.
Violette thought he was acting strange, and a
few seconds later, her phone beeped.
She picked it up and saw the message he sent: [Want to know my birthday wish today?]
Violette felt like her phone was burning!
They were sitting right across from each other.
And he was texting her! NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
She wanted to look up at him, but felt shy, b
ecause everyone else was watching them.
So she had to pretend to be composed and replied, "Just say what you want to say."
He replied, "Come home with me."
She looked puzzled.
Elijah said, "My birthday wish is for you to come back home with me."
