Chapter 154

Author: Full of Luck
"Harvey, have you still not repaired your relationship with Ms. Jones?"

The shareholders of Fisher Corp had seen how Ethel had targeted Elara and how Elara had treated Harvey. Some of the shareholders had already gone to talk some sense into Ethel.

"You saw Lucas and Mr. Somner personally coming down to welcome Elara. Why did you treat her that way just now?"

The Fisher Corp shareholders were very baffled by Ethel's actions. One of them had even wished he could take Ethel's place and be Elara's mother-in-law himself.

"She was looking down on me!" Ethel thought of Elara's gaze earlier and fumed. She didn't think there was anything wrong with her attitude. On the contrary, she felt she had been the one treated unfairly.

"I'm her mother-in-law!"

"You are her former mother-in-law," a shareholder corrected her.

"Elara was my daughter-in-law for seven years. Isn't there a saying that mentees have to respect their mentors for life? I was her mother-in-law for seven years; she should st

    Niamh was completely terrified now, especially with Harvey's sudden change in attitude. His words, "I came here because I didn't want you to hurt Niamh!" nearly made her piss her pants.Did he think she was stupid?Harvey had cornered her with nowhere left to run. That's why she'd come to Elara for protection. She just wanted Elara to help keep her alive."So, Harvey, you're not going to terminate my pregnancy anymore?"Niamh was still shaken, having just escaped from the hospital.Harvey was the kind of man who could personally get rid of his own child. Despite their childhood friendship and over 20 years of history, Harvey could cut ties with her without a second thought.Niamh had nearly been wheeled into surgery an hour ago. Now, Harvey was telling Elara he cared about her baby. Those words might fool Elara, but they wouldn't fool her."Niamh, come here."Harvey's command made Niamh shiver, as if ice was running through her veins. She didn't dare move, staying hidden behind

    Harvey's hands clenched into fists, his dark eyes locked intensely on Elara's face."Is this really what you want?" Harvey asked her. "Elara, you're doing this on purpose! Using reverse psychology is pretty amateur!"Elara looked at him with a slight smile, and Harvey's gaze lingered on her face for a long moment. At some point, her features had become blurred in his memory. Despite seven years of marriage, her appearance had somehow faded from Harvey's mind.So now, as he stared at her, it was almost like seeing Elara for the first time. She wore no makeup, the lighting was dim, and yet her beauty was striking.She was like a bright moon emerging from behind dark clouds in the night sky—impossible to look away from. Had she always looked like this?When Harvey tried to search his memories, only his first impression of 18-year-old Elara remained vivid."If I had to choose between Angie and Niamh, I'd obviously pick the lesser of two evils," Elara said with a smile.Niamh's mouth

    Theodore looked somewhat innocent when Harvey questioned him. "I'm here all the time. What's weird about that? I'm even staying over tonight!"The moment Theodore finished speaking, Harvey turned on Elara. "How can you let him stay at your place? Didn't you break up with him? Even if you two are dating, you can't just let some guy move in!"Before Elara could answer, Theodore jumped in, "I'm not as dangerous as you are. You're the one who uses drones to steal underwear. God, some people are seriously creepy!""I never stole… her underwear!" Harvey's voice clearly lost some of its intensity by the end of that sentence.Elara steered the conversation back on track. "I called you here because I want you to take Niamh with you."The moment she spoke, Niamh panicked."Elara! You can't hand me over to him! If you're going to turn me over to anyone, it should be Harvey's parents."Elara looked at Niamh. "If Elizabeth and Zachary really wanted you to be the Fisher family's daughter-in-l

    Elara's gaze fell on the dirty canvas sneakers on Niamh's feet. Her hair was disheveled, and traces of sweat were visible on her face."It looks like you already went to see Harvey with your pregnant belly," Elara said. "Let me guess his reaction."Niamh stared at Elara in shock, feeling like her heart was plummeting into a bottomless pit. For the first time, she felt like she didn't recognize Elara at all. Her survival instincts kicked in, sending warning signals as goosebumps rose on her skin.A voice in her head seemed to be screaming, "Run! Get out of here!"But Niamh's legs wouldn't cooperate—she was rooted to the spot."Even after you told Harvey that you used his frozen sperm from the hospital to get pregnant, he still doesn't want this baby. He must have taken you to the hospital to get rid of it, right?"Elara moved to Niamh's side and noticed a large, angry red scrape on her elbow."You sensed something was wrong and jumped out of the car to escape. So, you ran here lo

    The moment Elara finished speaking, Finnegan snapped his fork in half. His face turned frighteningly dark, radiating menacing energy."Harvey, is such a bastard! I'm going to tear his head off!"Elara quietly reminded him, "Don't swear in front of Merida."Merida quickly finished cleaning her plate. Though she only half-understood the adults' conversation, she knew her presence was stopping them from talking freely. She hurriedly finished eating and slid down from her chair."Eat slower," Elara reminded her. Merida's cheeks were puffed out like a hamster as she chewed dramatically in front of Elara dozens of times.Elara grabbed a napkin to wipe her face. "Skip the playground downstairs tonight and watch some cartoons in your room instead."Usually after dinner, Merida would go down to the playground to hang out with other kids. Even though Niamh couldn't get into the complex and Merida wasn't afraid of her, Elara didn't want her daughter bothered by any drama."Okay, Mommy." Af

    "I did eat something—something terrible!" said Finnegan.Merida asked curiously, "What was it?"Just then, the glass kitchen door slid open, and Theodore came out carrying a steaming plate of pasta. He sat down next to Finnegan while Elara sat with Merida."Smell this pasta Elara made for me." Theodore held the bowl up to Finnegan's face.Before Finnegan could even take a breath, Theodore pulled the plate away."Finny's probably had Elara's cooking before, so you've probably gotten tired of it by now. But for me, getting to eat something Elara made with her own hands is really special."Merida caught what Theodore was saying. "Mommy's cooking never gets old!"Theodore said, "Well, your Uncle Finn has been living with your mom longer than you have."Finnegan glanced at the pasta on Theodore's plate and let out a cold laugh. "That pasta doesn't have an egg on top, which means it was made for a guest. When Elara cooks for family, it doesn't look like that."Merida recalled it too
