Chapter 31: Press Conference
Ellena turned her head to the side, avoiding his gaze and said coldly, “None of your business.”
No matter how evasive she seemed, he still didn't back down–using this time to stare at the blemishes on her face. It was as if he was seeing them in a new light.
“Then whose business is that?”
Edward stared at her for a long time. His broad shoulders and tall body towered over her, not giving her any chance to escape. She was trapped here, whether she liked it or not.
Right now, she did want nothing but a hole to hide in the ground. How could she be so careless?
Even if he was a mile away from her, she could practically sense the oppressive aura seeping right out of him. What more if he was practically centimeters away from her? She suppressed her fear, trying to stare at him right in the eye. But the moment she tried, she found herself turning away almost immediately.
Her heartbeat was so fast that it felt lik

It was obvious that Ellena was mocking the reporter for her shameless act of asking people their sex life in public. The reporters who asked the question understood it too. Almost every reporter present was bribed by Ralph. They were invited to use today's press conference as a way to revive Naomi's innocence, so most of them only asked Ellena questions concerning the video. Only that reporter was the only one who had asked about Edward to gain attention. The Arnoult family had great power and influence, and ordinary people couldn't afford the offend them. However, there were a handful of people who wanted to risk everything, even their own lives to provoke them. Seeing that the others still hadn't stopped laughing, the reporter's face paled in embarrassment. So, she gave up covering her intentions and said viciously, “You are so ugly! How a woman like you could married into Edward’s family if it isn’t not the fact he is not impotent? If you could snatch awa

Out of defense, Ellena wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her head into his chest. Her mind went blank for a few seconds before she realized what was happening. "Nicklaus!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. A few pedestrians had glanced her way, but as soon as they saw the man holding her, they quickly looked away. Ellena struggled to get down from his arms, “Put me down!” Ignoring her frustration, Edward held her even tighter in his arms and put her on the passenger seat. No matter how many times she kicked her legs up in the air or pounded his chest with her fists, he still didn't back down as he closed the door beside her. "Don't move." "You wish!" As soon as she was seated, she reached out to grab the car door and want to get out of the car. With everything that had happened in the press conference and the night before, the last person she wanted to talk to was him! Edward had already expected her to try and fight back. Just as her hand

The entire car was silent all the time until they reached at a high-end club. The surrounding was filled with luxurious furniture. Although the place was a little more subdued as compared to the other clubs, she could tell that it was for the upper class given the number of sports cars parked around the area. Ellena paused, gazing at the well-dressed people going in and out of the club. This was certainly not the place she was used to. She looked at “Nicklaus” suspiciously, “Are we going to eat here?” He wouldn’t be here to play, would he? Edward didn't even bother to answer her as he got out of the car, closing the door right behind him. This time, he didn't open the passenger seat, as if he was daring her not to follow him inside. Ellena had no choice but to follow right behind him. The two of them walked straight to the entrance. When Edward stepped into the entrance, the attendant bowed respectfully. "Welcome to Sea Horizon Clubhouse.” However,

After Ellena finished her press conference, she had planned to watch it again on Weibo, wanting to see if she had gotten any comments from the netizens. However, before she could, “Nicklaus” had already pestered her to join him for lunch. Turning on the computer, she browsed the webpages. She found that the interview was covered by many media and re-posted by quite a number of Weibo influencers. The majority of the netizens were scolding her, just like she had expected. But there were a few rational people who analyzed her answers more carefully. “I knew that she was lying. The others who supported her are now hiding in embarrassment, right? What else do you have to say?" “Why was she acting like a diva? She even wore a mask when she was interviewed. Is she so afraid to show her face?" "Am I the only one who thinks that the way she answered the press was cool?” "I realized that she never really admitted to actually stealing her sister's fiancé from the start.

At the Smith Villa. Naomi leaned on the sofa and flipped through her phone, smirking as she looked at the trolling comments. She paid to get Ellena’s interview to be the top trending topic. She also paid an army of Weibo trolls to curse Ellena. Even those websites that held different opinions before began to turn hostile to Ellena. Although Ellena had claimed that she didn't have anything to do with the paparazzi, she didn't believe so. In fact, no matter how that woman had pushed her to believe, Naomi always believed that she had something to do with this. But it didn't matter. That woman didn't think of the whole picture when she had gone against her, and now she was paying the price. Seeing how ruthlessly Ellena was being sworn, Naomi couldn’t stop her smile. So what if their conversation was caught by paparazzi? That was just an empty talk. But Ellena had admitted in front of all the media outlets that she was simply hyping herself up to get a better job

The doctor immediately administered the injection to Edward. It had taken a while, but his condition finally stabilized. The doctor sighed in relief as he packed up his things, before turning to her. "Make sure you get him to drink plenty of liquids. Also, he mustn't be doing anything rigorous or exhausting that may affect his recovery, all right?” “OK.” Ellena grabbed a towel from his bedside table to wipe the sweat off his forehead. By the time she had done so, the others already made their way out of the room. She sighed in frustration and stared into his closed eyes. There was just something about this situation that she couldn't seem getting away with. Ellena felt a little strange. That night in the dining room, she had fallen into “Nicklaus's” arms, and Paul had caught them in the act. Yet, he didn't say the word. He even suggested her to take care of him while he was sick. Shouldn't he have said something to Edward? Or had he forgotten that the i
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 38: Why Doesn't She Please Me?
Ellena was unconvinced that Chloe used the adjective “handsome” to describe “Nicklaus”. She wrinkled her nose. “You can say whatever you want but it’s useless. Appearances are nothing if your personality's a size of a peanut." Chloe shook her head, as she took a sip of her juice and said, “I don’t believe that you weren’t fascinated by Nicklaus. I mean, who wouldn't? Have you ever seen anyone better than him? Even if he wear a sack, he will still look good! I don't know where your eyes have been, but you should start using them." Chloe stretched out her hand and made a gesture. She looked like a hooligan. Was she fascinated by “Nicklaus”? As soon as the thought appeared, she sneered. “Please, no matter what he's a jerk.” Women would be attracted by beautiful flowers, let alone a man like “Nicklaus.” “Nicklaus” may be the most handsome man that she'd ever met, but that still didn't make him admirable. Remembering what he had done to her in the past, she

Ellena immediately dialed Chloe’s number. "Hello?" An exhausted voice came from the other end of the line. "Is something wrong? Did something happen?" “Did you buy the trending topic on Naomi’s video?” “Didn’t you refuse? Have you changed your mind? Wait, if you want me to do it, I could contact my friends right now.” Chloe said excitedly, clapping her hands together. "No, it's not that. I just saw that her videos had gone up the trending search again. I thought you were the one who paid the site to get it up there.” Ellena explained as she scrolled down the Internet. No matter how far she had scrolled, Naomi’s videos were everywhere. “What? Really?” Chloe said and then made some noises. Ellena guessed she might browsing the Weibo. As expected, after a few seconds, Chloe burst into laughter. "Although I didn't do this, I'll send some flowers to whoever did. As I've said, karma's going to get her one day. I just didn't expect that it would be this f
