After Martin returned to the dining table and sat down, Spencer asked Ellena with concern, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. That Mr. Martin just now did not mean any harm." As she spoke, Ellena turned her head and looked in Martin's direction.

But who knew that Martin was also looking at her. Martin stared at Ellena with his eyes were full of doubt and confusion.

"It's good that you're fine. Let's order some dishes." Spencer did not continue the topic.

On the other side, Martin looked at Ellena as he

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 830: Sell the Arnoult Group

    The next morning, Ellena dressed in a crisp black suit and tied her hair into a low, elegant bun. Her face looked calm, composed but her heart was heavier than she let on.This was her first official visit to the Arnoult Group after the news of her takeover had gone public.Though she had been connected to the company in name through Edward for years, this was the first time she walked into its halls with true authority. With a title. With power. And with pressure.Paul arrived at her house right on time to escort her to the office.The moment the black car pulled into the underground parking lot, employees began to take notice. And when Ellena stepped out in heels, sharp lines, and an unreadable expression, their murmurs followed her like a low, curious wave.Some watched with blatant curiosity.Some with restrained skepticism.And some with open disdain.After all, in their eyes, Ellena had never truly belonged to this world of n

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 829: No Matter What

    Ellena chuckled lightly, the corners of her lips curling up with a cool grace. “Previously, Madeline had been frantically looking for Naomi. I guess they’ve finally found her.”“Sure enough, I knew you’d guess it!” Chloe’s eyes lit up as she clapped her hands in excitement. “I had the same feeling too. I mean, who else would make the Smiths go in and out of a hospital so often? It's not like they’re known for compassion.”“I know the Smith family well enough,” she continued. “They don’t care about people without a reason. The only ones they’d be so cautious about are either deeply tied to them… or Naomi herself.”Ellena’s expression darkened slightly as memories she would rather forget came rushing back. She had long seen through the veneer the Smiths used to disguise their hypocrisy. Their affection was always transactional, calculated.“The

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 828: Her Illness Is Especially Strange

    Ellena's refusal didn’t end the reporter’s line of questioning. Instead, the man pressed forward boldly, as if emboldened by the silence that followed.“I think this is still related to the Arnoult Group, Miss Smith,” he insisted, voice rising slightly. “Now that the group is under your control, we just want to understand the reasons behind the transfer. Don’t the public and shareholders deserve to know?”A few gasps and murmurs followed among the crowd of reporters.Ellena’s expression didn’t waver. Her tone remained composed, but colder this time. “That is a personal matter,” she replied crisply. “Forgive me for not answering you.”The reporter opened his mouth again, but before he could utter another word, Paul stepped forward. With a subtle nod, he signaled to the staff on standby. Within moments, two security personnel made their way over and led the persistent reporter out of the room.This wasn’t an ordinary company. It was the Arnoult Group. Even with Edward’s disappearance, t

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 827: I Don't Know the Secret

    Paul took the neatly folded newspaper from his side and handed it to Ellena with a solemn expression. The headline was bold and striking, unmistakably referring to the Arnoult Group and Edward’s disappearance.Ellena accepted it calmly, her eyes sweeping across the front page only for a brief second before she folded it again and placed it aside on the coffee table. “I’ve already read it online,” she said with detached poise.In truth, she hadn’t read every word. She didn’t need to. All the headlines said the same thing, about the accident, the disappearance, the missing CEO. She didn’t need words to feel the chaos boiling just under the surface of her carefully constructed calm. She was already living it.Paul remained quiet for a moment, perhaps surprised by her nonchalance. But Ellena had always been strong in her own way. After a moment, he said, “We might hold a press conference next.”Ellena nodd

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 826: True Owner of the Arnoult Group

    However, the problem was that they had no news of Edward yet, and there had been no trace of Sampson either.Judging from the current situation, they had no news of Edward.It was hard to say whether Edward would take the initiative to contact them.However, the most pressing issue right now was that the the Arnoult Group. If Edward disappeared for one more days, the employees of the Arnoult Group would be even more panicked.After the two of them finished speaking, they became silent.After a while, Paul said, "Miss Smith, please consider it."What he meant was to let Ellena consider taking over the Arnoult Group.Ellena's expression became more indifferent. "I don't know how to do business."A hint of joy flashed across Paul's eyes. "That's okay. I will help you."In terms of affection, Paul had been through more experience than Edward had.He and Carolina had been in love when they were in college. In the end,

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 825: It Could be Spencer

    Ellena reached out to the nanny Paul had introduced. The woman was a native of Herton City, living in the quiet outskirts.There was nothing ostentatious about her—no airs or pretense. Just a calm, homely simplicity in the way she spoke and carried herself.Despite everything she had been through lately, Ellena still trusted Paul’s judgment when it came to people. After a short conversation with the nanny over a cup of warm tea, she sensed a kind of grounded warmth in the woman. Perhaps it was the steady gaze or the gentle tone of her voice. Ellena made her decision.The housekeeper moved into Ellena’s home the very next day.Elaine, to Ellena's relief, did not reject the nanny. In fact, she seemed curious—watchful but not hostile. Ellena had braced herself for tears, tantrums, or stubborn silence from her daughter. But there were none. Elaine's quiet acceptance surprised her and, in a strange way, made her feel both hopeful and he

    During dinner time, there were a lot of people eating in the Sea Horizon Club. Ellena originally wanted to find a private room, but all the rooms were already full. She could ask Martin to help her get a room, but there was no need, and it would be too much trouble. The table by the window did not h

    Vincent opened the window to air the room. Ellena quickly ran to the window to breathe in some fresh air. The room had not been occupied for a long time. It had a very unpleasant smell. "My study is over there. You can go there and get the materials that we need later." Vincent pointed in a directio

    Vincent drank the juice and said, "You look so pretty when smiling. You should smile more often. . . Oh!!!” "What the hell is this?" Vincent had only taken a small sip of the juice when his eyes widened. "Didn’t I say I wanted juice of sweet fruit? It’s sour!” Ellena was still expressionless when sh

    Ellena felt that she could not get along with Vincent, so it was better to get rid of him as soon as possible.She no longer paid attention to Vincent and turned around to walk towards the place where she parked her car.Vincent chased after her. "Ellena! Stop right there!"Ellena pretended not to hear
