• Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 882. I'll Pass It on to You

  Nolan was already extremely annoyed.Hearing Madeline continue shouting hysterically beside him only made the irritation in his heart grow stronger.He suddenly stepped on the brakes slightly and turned his head to look at Madeline coldly."Shut up!"His voice was low and full of warning.Madeline's entire body stiffened instantly.The anger and unwillingness on her face disappeared in an instant, replaced by obvious fear.She lowered her head subconsciously and finally did not dare to continue shouting.The car instantly became quiet.Only the faint sound of the engine could be heard inside the narrow space.Madeline sat nervously in the passenger seat, not even daring to breathe loudly anymore.Nolan glanced at her coldly before withdrawing his gaze.Madeline was clearly the one who had caused this incident, yet she still did not realize her mistake even now. She even looked as if she would never repent no matter what others said.Seeing her like this made Nolan feel even more disgu

  Madelinelooked at Nolanand said with an ugly expression, "Nolan, you..."Her lips trembled slightly from anger. She had never expected Nolanto speak to her in such a mocking and merciless tone. Although Nolanhad never been particularly respectful toward her and usually ignored her existence in the Smithfamily, she was still an elder after all. No matter what mistakes she had made, being ridiculed like this in front of everyone still made her unable to endure it.Her face alternated between red and pale. She wanted to refute him, but the words seemed to stick in her throat. Never before had Nolanhumiliated her so openly.Madeline's chest rose and fell violently. She turned her head to look at Ralphinstinctively, hoping that he would help her say a few words.For so many years, whenever disagreements arose within the family, Ralphhad usually stood on her side, especially after Jaydenand Naomi's deaths. S

  Madeline's heart skipped a beat.The moment Nolanquestioned her so directly, panic surged through her chest. It was so sudden that even her breathing became uneven for an instant.When Nolanquestioned her so directly, guilt rose in her chest at once.She had thought no one knew about her meeting with Ellena. She had never expected Nolanto ask about it the moment he returned.She instinctively reached out and tucked the hair by her ear, trying to appear calm. But the smile on her face was stiff and unnatural.The small movement, which usually looked graceful, now only made her nervousness more obvious."I didn't do anything," she said quickly. "I just went out shopping."Her reply came almost too fast, as though she had already prepared the excuse beforehand."Nolan, what's wrong with you today?" Ralphfrowned and spoke sternly. "Instead of staying at the company to deal with business, you come back only t

  Madelineheard Ralph's words and slowly nodded. Her expression was lowered, and there was something faintly frightening in the way she spoke.Her eyes remained lowered, hiding the emotions within them. Her voice was soft and gentle, yet for some reason, it carried an indescribable chill."Please take the medicine first."She picked up the medicine from the table and handed it to Ralphas though nothing unusual had happened.Ralphwas still full of anger, but he did not continue arguing. He took the medicine she handed him and sat back down. The room gradually became quiet.The only sounds left were the faint clinking of the glass and Ralphswallowing the medicine with water. The tense atmosphere settled into an uneasy silence.Not long after, Nolanreturned.The front door opened, and hurried footsteps echoed through the living room.The moment he entered the room, his eyes went directly to Madeline.

  Although Nolanfelt uncertain, he still asked softly, "Why are you so nervous?"Even though he had already sensed that something serious had happened, he forced himself to remain calm. Years of managing the company had taught him that panic never solved problems.The person on the other end of the phone sounded flustered and hurried."The contracts we signed before, they all called to terminate the cooperation. Not only that..."The employee's breathing was uneven, as though he had been answering phone calls without a break since morning.The employee continued speaking rapidly, reporting one matter after another.Every new piece of news was worse than the last. One long-term partner after another had either suspended cooperation or expressed the intention to withdraw. Several ongoing projects had also been affected, leaving the entire company in chaos.Nolan's expression gradually changed as he listened. By the time he heard the

  Everyone in the office looked at each other.No one spoke immediately. The atmosphere in the meeting room turned subtle and tense.The silence stretched for several seconds. Although no one dared to question Ellenaopenly, the surprise on everyone's faces was impossible to hide. Some quietly exchanged glances, while others lowered their eyes to the documents in front of them, trying to conceal their thoughts.Although the Smithfamily only owned a small company, they were still fairly well-known in Herton City. Much of that attention had originally come from their engagement with the Arnoultfamily. Back then, the connection alone was enough to place them in the public eye.The marriage alliance between the two families had attracted considerable attention from both the business community and the media. Even people who had never paid attention to the SmithGroup had heard of its name because of its relationship with the Arnoultfa

  The two adults looked at each other and put down their phones. Then, they ate together with Elaine. The three of them had not eaten together for a long time. At this moment, when they sat together to eat, they were no longer a family of three. Elaine looked especially happy, and even Ellena's mood a

  Ellena stopped and turned around to look at the direction of the dining table.Edward's back was facing her and he was sitting alone at the dining table eating noodles.The dining table was not big, but one could feel how lonely he must be.Ellena stopped in place for a moment, then walked towards the

  If it was during normal times, it would be fine. Ellena could think of a reason to send Edward away.But today was New Year's Eve. After careful consideration, she had no reason to chase Edward away.Elaine was their daughter. She was not the private property of any of them.The separation was the end

  If she ignored this little episode of Nolan, nothing special happened until New Year's Eve.On the morning of the New Year's Eve, Ellena brought Elaine with her for shopping.Ellena put the dishes Elaine liked into the basket and also brought a small stool for Elaine to put in front of the sink, letti
