Edward was obviously angered by Ellena's tone. Although the candlelight was a little dim, Ellena could still clearly see Edward's expression change when they were so close.

The two of them looked at each other for a while.

Edward took a step back and spoke first, "Because of Elaine."

Ellena was so angry that she laughed. "Elaine is still young and gullible. You can find her a gentle, kind and beautiful stepmother again. Anyway, you don't like me. Why don’t you just let me die here alone, so tha

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 835: It Could be Considered a Show of Mercy

    Nolan had asked Ellena to come and see Naomi because he wanted them to make peace.However, Ellena's attitude was very obvious. She did not want to make peace with Naomi."Ellena, I don't want to force you to make peace with Naomi. I just feel that..." Nolan tried to use a more euphemistic way of saying it but under Ellena's increasingly cold gaze, his voice gradually faded."Big Brother, if you want me to reconcile with Naomi, unless she sincerely apologizes to me, otherwise..." Ellena's lips curled into a mocking arc, "There will never be a day when we can reconcile.""Naomi has become like this not because of her repentance, but because of her own stupidity. Her current misery is not caused by me. She gets this result because she is so stupid that she wants to ask a tiger for its skin. It is the bitter fruit she brewed. I will not gloat when she is down, but I will not sympathize with her."Ellena's words could not be clearer. Nolan frowned slight

    Chloe exchanged glances with Ellena and leaned towards Ellena.Nolan walked to the side of the bed and bent over to call, "Naomi."The person on the bed did not react.Nolan turned around and said to Ellena, "She is asleep."Then, he reached out and lifted Naomi's blanket. Naomi's face was revealed.Chloe who was at the side immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. Ellena's eyes also slightly changed.That was not a normal face. Her entire face was so thin that one could see the shape of bones. Her eye sockets were also deeply sunken. There was only a layer of skin on her cheekbones.It was already impossible to see Naomi's original appearance.Ellena walked two steps closer and at this moment Naomi, who originally had her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes.Because Naomi was now too thin, her eyes appeared to be bigger and looked a little strange.Naomi seemed to have had a nightmare. Her eyes were as wide as

    "Oh." She did not seem very concerned.Nolan was silent for a moment. He asked her, "Do you want to see Naomi?"Nolan knew what Naomi had done to Ellena, so when he asked this kind of question, he was still a little embarrassed.Ellena smiled, looking like she wanted to watch the fun, and said, "Okay."Nolan was stunned for a moment and nodded with an uneasy look on his face.It was eight o'clock in the evening when Ellena finished her last meeting.She returned to her office and there was a pile of documents on her desk.Ellena flipped through the documents and turned to Paul. "When do you think I can finish reading them?"Paul lowered his eyes. "President Smith, don't be discouraged. You can deal with as many as you can.""There's still no news of Edward, is there?" Ellena sighed and leaned against the back of the chair, unconsciously turning around.Paul shook his head. "No."

    At exactly twelve noon, Ellena was still in her office, eyes slightly tired as she listened to Paul explain the documents stacked before her. He stood beside her desk, his tone calm but firm, analyzing each proposal with practiced clarity.“This one can pass directly,” Paul said, tapping a page with his pen. “It’s a renewal of a previous contract. Nothing has changed.”He flipped to the next. “This one is feasible but needs negotiation. The supplier raised their quote by eight percent. We can bring it down.”Another file. “This one, we should call back immediately. It’s reckless.”Ellena leaned her elbow on the desk, supporting her temple. She was listening, absorbing what she could, though her body ached with fatigue. She hadn’t had a proper meal all day. There was just too much to do, too much to process.After a moment of silence, she spoke up, almost absentmindedly. “Paul,

    Paul was startled by Ellena’s words.He looked at her with a complicated expression. There was a flicker of surprise, then understanding, then something else. It was filled with respect, perhaps, or regret.“When Mr. Arnoult was still around,” Paul said quietly, “I once asked him this question too, about whether you could sell the company if it ever came to you. He told me... it was up to you.”Ellena turned her face slightly, brows raised in genuine surprise. She could not see her expression, but she could feel the disbelief, the faint irony curling at the edges of her mouth.She stared down at the documents, silent for a moment. Then she sneered, not at Paul but at the strange foresight Edward had always possessed. “He really did think of everything, didn’t he?”Paul didn’t answer. Instead, he glanced at his watch and smoothly changed the subject. “The meeting is about to start.”

    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

    Ellena was puzzled for a moment before she went back to Natalie's place.Natalie had been waiting for Ellena for a long time. When she finally saw Ellena coming, she said, "I thought you were going to have dinner in the bathroom."Ellena just smiled and did not say anything in reply. It was time for d

    Frederick curled his lips and smiled mysteriously. "Edward is as skeptical as his mother. Once he found something, he must go to its roots. What happened to the old man had already raised his suspicions. He will find out what we did sooner or later. So of course, I have to be on guard and take preca

    It was really rare for Ellena to take care of him like this and Edward was enjoying her service very much. Hearing her, he asked with his eyes closed, "Did Paul tell you this?" Ellena was about to say something when she heard Edward say, "Does Paul have your phone number? Does Martin also have your

    The rain was so heavy that she couldn't even open her eyes. Ellena wiped the rain off her face and quietly knelt down in front of the grave with the flowers in her arms. She placed the flowers in front of the tombstone. She looked at the tombstone for a while and then said softly, "Mom, I am Ellena.
