Nicklaus raised his head and carefully looked at Ellena's expression.

He noticed that Ellena's expression was normal, so he continued, "Sister Jolene is a photographer. When she went to take pictures of snow, she encountered an avalanche. The rescue team never found her."

When he said the last few words, Nicklaus's voice became softer.

Ellena was stunned and did not know what to say for a moment.

"When did that happen?" Ellena looked up and asked him.

Nicklaus said, "Five years ago."

    Madeline was instantly choked by Ellena's words.Her expression became extremely awkward.For a moment, she simply sat there, unable to find an appropriate response. Ellena's question had been completely straightforward, but somehow, it made Madeline feel as though all the words she had prepared beforehand had been exposed.The last time she had met Ellena was at the coffee shop.At that time, she had intentionally asked Ellena out in order to humiliate her.Madeline still remembered that meeting clearly.Back then, she had been arrogant and proud. She had thought that she had finally grasped Ellena's weakness and could finally suppress her properly.She had believed that Ellena, who had always appeared so calm and untouchable, had finally fallen into her hands.Back then, Madeline had been so pleased with herself.She had thought that she finally had something that could make Ellena bow her head.She had even bel

    Nolan chose a high-end restaurant nearby and brought Ellena there.The restaurant was located in a relatively quiet area, away from the busiest streets. From the moment they entered, the difference between this place and the noisy outside world was obvious.The atmosphere inside the restaurant was quiet and elegant. Soft music flowed gently in the air, blending with the low murmur of conversations from the other guests. Warm lights illuminated the hall, casting a soft glow over the polished floors and beautifully arranged tables. Everything appeared carefully designed, from the delicate decorations to the refined furnishings.The entire place gave people a feeling of comfort and luxury.However, the atmosphere at their table was completely different from the peaceful surroundings.Although they were surrounded by elegance and tranquility, none of them truly felt relaxed.After entering the private room, everyone sat down one after another.

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 883. Could Not be Made Public

    After Nolan made the call, he felt slightly relieved when he saw that the call had connected successfully.At least Ellena had not directly rejected his call.That small detail was enough to give him a momentary sense of relief. He had been sitting inside the car for quite some time, repeatedly thinking about how he should approach Ellena and what he should say when they finally met. He knew very well that this matter would not be easy to resolve. Even so, as long as Ellena was willing to answer the phone, he felt that there was still a possibility of talking things through.However, the moment he heard the voice on the other end, the faint joy in his eyes instantly disappeared.Because the person who answered was not Ellena.Nolan's expression became a little unpleasant, but he still maintained politeness in his tone. He did not immediately reveal his disappointment. Instead, he took a breath and asked calmly, "Then when will Ellena's meeting end?"His voice sounded calm and patient.

    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

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 881. Apologize

    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.

    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

    As soon as Madeline heard the word “sister-in-law”, her face went dark deeply, and she gave Ellena a stern and cold look.If looks could kill, Ellena would have already been buried six feet under the ground with no way out. This time not even the richest man in the city could h

    Sunlight crept from the balcony at the other side of the room, shining over the blanket wrapped around Ellena’s thin frame.Somehow, everything happened last night felt like a dream or perhaps a nightmare, at least, until her hands slide across the silky sheets around her.It

    He deliberately accentuated the word ‘waste of a man’ deeply, with a hint of provocation. The man approached her intentionally, the piercingly cold aura of him got even thicker and stronger. Ellena moved uncomfortably, and after a moment of disbelief, she believed his words. After all, Edward’s vil
