Chapter 562

Author: Summer Blossom
"Sharon probably acted all pitiful and delicate in front of you, didn't she? Did she tell you that I bullied and lied to her?

"But did she also tell you that she tried to kill my wife? That my wife ended up with burns and almost died from gas poisoning because of her? Did she mention any of that?" Edward shouted the words, and Elias paused for a moment.

In that brief second of distraction, a security guard snuck up behind him and struck. Elias grunted and kicked Elias across the floor.

Edward said, "Everyone, stop. No more fighting."

The guards began to fall back as Elias turned his gaze back on Edward. Edward figured that Elias might not be completely irrational, so he continued, "Do you just believe whatever Sharon tells you? Have you ever heard the saying 'a wise man listens to both sides, but a fool listens to one'? Or is that news to you?"

Elias stared at him, his fists clenched tight. He couldn't believe that Sharon nearly killed this guy's wife through gas poisoning and bu

  • Who's the One Regretting Now?   Chapter 797

    Elias stood frozen as his gaze fixed on Alice's retreating figure. His mind was still reeling with shock after learning that Sharon and Macie were from the same orphanage. That detail alone sent a jolt through him. He thought that it was too much of a coincidence. Macie and Sharon are not only the same age but also both separated from their families at a young age. And then there were Macie's facial features, which looked familiar to him.His heart pounded. Then, a bizarre and absurd thought began to form in his mind. But he pushed it down for now and forced himself to remain calm because, without evidence, it was nothing more than wild speculation. Moreover, he had overseen Sharon's DNA testing himself.Clenching his fists, Elias focused intently as he scanned the crowd. He first spotted Mira, then locked eyes with Sharon.He had always known that Sharon and Macie were friends, but he'd assumed they met in high school. It had never crossed his mind to look into it further. But

    Xavier smiled and said nothing. He turned his gaze toward the center of the dance floor, watching Alice's smiling face. He thought, "Of course. As her token big brother, it's only natural that I'd look out for Ali's happiness."At that moment, in the center of everyone's attention, the first half of the dance had already passed. With only the second half remaining, Alice had simply been following Elias' lead without either of them exchanging a single word.Just as she was working up the courage to ask why he had invited her to dance, he said, "Ms. Hart, would you have a moment to spare after this? I have a few questions I'd like to ask you."She looked up at him and asked, "What kind of questions?""It's about your friend Macie, Edward's ex-wife," he replied.Alice frowned slightly and wondered why Elias would ask her about Macie."Tell me what you want to know first, then I'll decide whether to answer," she said.He was worried that she might misunderstand him, so he quickl

    In the crowd, Sharon watched as Elias approached Alice for a dance. She was practically grinding her teeth in frustration because she had been hoping to dance with him herself.What made it worse was that Elias had once said he wasn't interested in Alice. So why was he taking the initiative to ask her to dance now?Sharon bit her lip, then turned to look at Mira. She needed to see how her mother felt about the couple."Mom, Eli took the initiative to ask Ms. Hart for the opening dance. Do you think he might have feelings for her?" she asked in a low voice.Diana was looking toward the ballroom, but her eyes seemed unfocused, as if she were lost in thought."Mom?" When Sharon didn't get a response, she called out again.Mira finally snapped back to attention. Her gaze settled on her son and Alice as she replied absentmindedly, "Yes, Alice is a lovely lady..."Hearing that, Sharon bit down harder on her lip, and her nails dug into her palms.Her mother's reaction made it clear th

    Alice immediately grabbed Diana's arm and said through gritted teeth, "Mom, don't do it. It would look like you're begging Elias. As the Hart family's daughter, do I really need to stoop to that level? I have my pride, too, you know."Alice thought that this was beyond embarrassing. The thought of her mother asking him to be her opening dance partner made her cringe at the thought of the humiliation.She grabbed Diana's arm and stopped her from leaving. As she scanned the crowd, she noticed three or four young men making their way toward her.But they were all so unattractive that she couldn't stand the sight of them. With the prelude nearly over, Alice said, "I'll just ask Sean.""What's the point of having your brother as your opening dance partner?" Diana said disapprovingly."What's wrong with him being my partner? It's not like he isn't good enough," Alice shot back. "Just don't even think about approaching Elias. I'm not going to humiliate myself." After saying that, she s

    "Mr. Hart, are you referring to the lady in the white dress with shoulder-length hair?" Elias asked again to make sure he had the right person."Yeah, that's Macie," Sean said flatly. "It's Alice's birthday today, so she came to wish her. But if it weren't for your people, do you think she would've left right after dropping off her gift?"Elias pressed his lips together at these words.Was Macie afraid of seeing them? Was she afraid that he might hurt her?"Mr. Hale, please come inside. My parents are already here," Sean added.His tone brooked no argument, making it clear that Elias was not to go chasing after Macie.Elias turned to look once more into the night, then slowly began climbing the steps.Sean thought he was still being stubborn and patiently waited alongside him the entire time, making sure to escort him into the venue.As Elias walked, his mind wandered, and Macie's face kept replaying in his mind. At the same time, distant memories of every smile and expression

    Macie instinctively glanced behind her. Seeing the bodyguard still following her helped calm her racing heart. But before she could fully turn around, her foot missed a step. With a startled cry, she stumbled forward."Watch out!" the bodyguard shouted, lunging forward to catch her.But before he could reach her, someone from below cleared three steps in a single, powerful stride. A second later, he caught her firmly in his arms.Safe in his steady grip, the panic in her chest finally began to settle.Then, a deep male voice rumbled above her head and asked, "Are you alright, miss?""I'm fine," Macie replied, looking up to meet a pair of cold, almost menacing eyes in a stern face.The man who had just arrived was none other than Elias Hale. When he saw Macie's face in his arms—especially her eyes—he froze. He wondered why she looked so familiar. There was something about her that made him think of his younger sister from years ago.Macie had regained her footing. However, Elia
