Chapter 4
The doctor said, "It's hard to predict. It could just take a few months, or it could take longer." She
paused for a moment, then added, "But you're so young, you should be fine."
Time flew by, a rain splashed and A city officially stepped into the fall season.-
In the evening, Violette stepped out of the bathroom after her shower.
She went over to the bed, opened up the new moisturizer she bought today, and started to slowly rub it
onto her skin.
"Elijah, want me to put some on for you too? The weather is so darn dry lately," she said as she
approached Elijah.
She sat by the bed, dipped her fingers into the moisturizer, and gently applied it to his face.
His eyes suddenly shot open, deep and amber like gemstones.
The glint in his eyes caught her breath off guard.
Even though she saw him open his eyes every day, every time it happened, she was taken aback.
"Did I startle you? I didn't put much force though," she continued to massage his face gently.
Meanwhile, she muttered under her breath---
"Elijah, I saw on the internet that you don't have a girlfriend, is it because of your body. But your body
looks pretty good to me! Those muscular arms... those sturdy thighs..."
After she finished applying the moisturizer, she gently patted his arms and legs.
Her moves were light, not causing any discomfort.
But his reaction shocked her---
Because... she thought she heard his voice.
"Elijah, was that you? Did you just speak?" Violette jumped up from the bed. Her eyes were widely
open, staring at his face.
He was also looking at her---
Unlike before, his gaze was not vacant. Now, he was looking at her, filled with emotions!
Although those emotions were anger, hatred, and some confusion.
"Lacey!" Violette, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, rushed out of the room and sprinted
downstairs, "Lacey, Elijah woke up! He spoke, he really woke up!"
Her face turned bright red and her heart raced incessantly. Violette’s chest was heaving rapidly.
Elijah woke up.
She was certain he was awake because not only did he open his eyes, he also spoke to her.
Even though his voice was hoarse, and he spoke slowly, his words were intimidating.
He asked her 'who are you'.
In an instant, her mind went blank.
Everyone around her had told her he'd pass away soon, so she never imagined what he would be like
when he woke up.
After her outburst, Lacey, the doctor, and the bodyguards all hurried over.
Half an hour later, the villa was filled with people.
No one could believe that Elijah would wake up.
"Elijah, mom knew you would wake up!" Grace burst into tears out of the excitement.
Travis said, "Elijah, we're glad you woke up. You have no idea how worried we were, especially mom,
her hair has gone gray from the sorrow."
After a thorough examination of Elijah's condition, the doctor told Elijah's mother, "This is truly
astonishing! There were no signs of improvement in his condition during the last check-up. Now that
Mr. Bourne can speak, as long as he continues to undergo rehabilitation, his condition can return to
normal."
The good news was so sudden that Grace couldn't handle the surprise. She felt weak in her feet and
fainted.
Travis Bourne helped Grace out of the room.
In the room, there were only the doctor, Lacey, the bodyguards, and Violette standing at the door,
bewildered, afraid to come in.
Elijah's aura since waking up was chilling and frightening. He was sitting up in bed, with sharp, hawk-
like eyes. They were flashing with a cold light, and staring at her.
"Who is she?" His voice was low and strong, instilling fear.
The doctor was so scared that she didn't dare to breathe.
Lacey, with her head low, explained, "Sir, she's your wife, whom your mother married for you when you
were ill. Her name is..."
Elijah's thin lips parted, his voice cold and ruthless, "Get her out!"
