The boy used brute force and Ellena was unable to break free.

She looked up at him and coldly said, "Let go of me!"

Ellena had a pair of beautiful cat eyes. When she smiled, she looked exceptionally fascinating. But when she was angry and looked at people, people would feel the coldness penetrating into their bones.

The boy who pulled her was still young after all. When he was being looked at coldly by Ellena, the strength in his hands involuntarily relaxed.

    Vincent looked straight at Edward, a trace of shock clearly flashing through his eyes.For a brief moment, he seemed uncertain, as if he was not fully convinced that the person standing in front of him was really Edward. His gaze lingered, sharp and probing, as though he was trying to confirm whether this was reality or simply an illusion caused by the dim lighting in the underground parking lot.The surprise in his eyes disappeared quickly, but not before Ellena noticed it.The underground parking lot was quiet and nearly empty. The pale overhead lights cast long shadows across the concrete floor, making the atmosphere feel strangely cold. In the silence, even the smallest movements seemed amplified.At that moment, Edward leaned slightly toward Ellena and whispered softly in her ear, “He is looking at you. Go and ask him what he wants.”His voice was calm and low, carrying a hint of amusement that instantly irritated her.Ellena’s brows knitted together at once. She turned her head

    Vincent leaned against a tree at the entrance of the residential area, a lighter held loosely between his fingers. His posture looked casual, but his eyes were fixed in one direction, as if he was waiting for someone.The evening breeze stirred the leaves above him. The warm glow of the streetlights stretched across the pavement, casting long shadows around his feet.From a distance, he appeared relaxed.However, anyone paying close attention would quickly notice that he was not as calm as he looked.He pressed the lighter unconsciously. A small flame appeared.Then he flicked it off.A second later, he pressed it again.The action repeated, absent minded and mechanical, revealing the impatience hidden beneath his calm exterior. It was obvious that his thoughts were elsewhere.Every few moments, his gaze would drift toward the road leading into the residential area.As if he was expecting someone to appear at any moment.

    Ellena did not say anything else.The exhaustion she had felt moments earlier still lingered in her chest, making her unwilling to continue the conversation. No matter what she said, Edward would simply stand there quietly and listen. No matter how much sarcasm she threw at him, he would not argue back.That kind of reaction made her feel strangely powerless.She walked forward and opened the car door, her movements calm but slightly stiff. Edward followed closely behind her, his steps unhurried, as if he had already grown accustomed to silently staying beside her.The underground parking lot was brightly lit.The sound of their footsteps echoed faintly against the concrete floor.Neither of them spoke.The atmosphere between them remained complicated and restrained.When Ellena got into the car and had not yet fully settled into her seat, her phone suddenly rang. The ringtone broke the silence inside the vehicle.She lo

    Martin no longer carried out any public relations actions after Edward personally told him about the situation. Even the public relations department of the Arnoult Group completely stopped interfering in the matter, because the order had been issued directly under Ellena’s name.As a result, the storm that had been brewing online quickly grew out of control.For a period of time, Edward was pushed straight to the center of public opinion.The Internet was filled with voices discussing him.Every social media platform seemed flooded with comments related to him. New posts appeared every minute. Countless discussions emerged one after another. Some people analyzed his past actions. Others speculated about his current situation. Many had no understanding of the truth at all, yet they still participated enthusiastically, treating the matter as a source of entertainment.Many people joined in simply to watch the excitement. Those who had once not even dared to stand in front of Edward were

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 855. Don't Worry

    Edward looked at Ellena with an expressionless face. His gaze was calm and cold, without the slightest ripple of emotion. There was no anger, no joy, and no impatience in his eyes. It was as if her sharp words had never reached him at all.Ellena raised her head as well and met his gaze directly.She did not retreat.Her eyes were equally steady, equally stubborn. She refused to show weakness, refused to look away first. The air between them grew heavy, as if an invisible force was pressing down on the room.“Ellena,” Martin suddenly spoke, his voice tense.A thin layer of cold sweat had already formed on his back.Among everyone Martin knew, Ellena was the only person who dared to scold Edward like this. No one else would ever dare to speak to Edward in such a tone.No.It was not that others did not want to. It was that no one dared.The two of them continued to look at each other in silence. Seconds passed slowly, stretching endlessly. Finally, it was Edward who looked away first.H

    Ellena heard Chloe’s words and could not help but smile faintly. The tension in her shoulders eased slightly, though the heaviness in her heart did not completely fade.After she sat down, Martin handed the menu over to her with one hand. “Please order,” he said, his tone polite but his eyes still carrying traces of lingering irritation from earlier.Ellena took the menu, but she did not open it immediately. Her fingers paused against the smooth cover, and her expression slowly became complicated. After a brief silence, she said quietly, “I saw Edward.”The moment those words left her mouth, Martin’s posture changed.He immediately sat up straight, his eyes widening as he leaned forward. “Where is he?” he asked, his voice rising uncontrollably.Because he was too agitated, the movement was abrupt. The chair beneath him scraped harshly against the floor, producing an ear piercing sound that echoed briefly in the private room.Ellena glanced at him and continued calmly, “He came to see

    The blond man was so angry that he laughed. He pointed at Ellena and could not say anything. The bystanders around were basically criticizing the blond man.

Not to mention how far it was to get to the airport from her, it would take more than 10 hours just to fly.Even if she left for the airport now, she might not be able to buy a plane ticket to
