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 s

    Spencer glanced briefly at Paul, then followed after Ellena without hesitation.Paul's gaze remained fixed on Spencer's retreating figure. His instincts told him that allowing Ellena to be alone with Spencer was not a good idea. Ever since learning about Spencer's true nature, Paul had never lowered his guard around him.However, he also understood Ellena's personality.Once she had made a decision, no one could easily change her mind.In the end, Paul remained where he was, although his eyes never left the two figures moving farther away through the funeral hall.Ellena walked toward a quiet corner of the funeral hall where very few people passed by. The farther she walked, the quieter the surroundings became. The low voices of the guests gradually faded into the background until only the faint murmur of conversations remained.The sound of rain outside became clearer here, pattering steadily against the ground. Raindrops struck the large g

    “Ellena.”The first person to notice Ellena was Madeline.The moment Madeline saw her, she immediately walked forward to greet her, her steps quick and somewhat anxious. The sound of her heels echoed softly against the polished floor of the funeral hall, disrupting the otherwise solemn atmosphere.Her face looked a little haggard, with faint shadows beneath her eyes, as if she had not rested well for several days. Her carefully applied makeup failed to conceal the exhaustion etched into her features. Even her usually elegant posture seemed slightly bent, as though an invisible burden had been weighing on her shoulders for a long time.However, Ellena did not feel that Madeline's haggard appearance was due to Jayden's death.Instead, she could tell at a glance that Madeline's exhaustion came from worry over Naomi's health. Naomi had always been Madeline's priority. Compared to that, Jayden's life or death no longer seemed to hold the sam

    Ellena drove the car smoothly into the underground garage.The headlights cut through the dimness, sweeping across the cold concrete walls before finally settling on her designated parking space. The quiet hum of the engine echoed faintly in the empty garage as she maneuvered the car neatly into place.After turning off the engine, silence immediately enveloped the vehicle.Ellena did not move right away.She sat quietly in the driver's seat, both hands still resting lightly on the steering wheel. Through the windshield, she stared blankly at the gray wall in front of her. The underground garage was exceptionally quiet at this hour. The only sounds were the distant hum of ventilation equipment and the occasional faint noise of another vehicle somewhere far away.For a few seconds, she simply remained seated.Then, as though finally returning to reality, she unfastened her seat belt, pushed open the car door, and stepped out.The sharp click of her heels echoed softly against the concr

    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

    Ellena was too nervous. The force in her hand was especially strong.She felt the man above her stiffen for a moment and she called out in a tight voice. "Edward?""Ellena." Edward's voice became a little slow. He only called her name and his entire body drooped down heavily.Ellena hurriedly turned he

    Edward's expression froze slightly, but it didn't ease up much.He stared intently at Ellena, his gaze sharp as if he wanted to see through her. "What were you thinking when you were in the basement just now? Do you want to strangle Naomi?"Ellena suddenly raised her head and widened her eyes to look

    Ellena got out of the car and entered the villa.As she walked into the villa, she turned around and looked outside the door.When she could not see Edward's car outside the villa, she squatted on the ground and quickly walked to the small house in the basement.After she went in, she closed the door a

    "Ellena."Edward emphasized her name. It was obvious that he was not satisfied with her questioning.Ellena held his hand and did not let him move. He was too lazy to care about that hand. He lowered his head and kissed her lips. He said vaguely, "What I am doing now is also proper business."Ellena im
