There's No Turning Back의 모든 챕터: 챕터 491 - 챕터 500

Suddenly, someone hugged Xavier from behind. Elara pulled him into her embrace.She let Xavier lean against her chest, her warm palm covering the back of his head."You don't need to apologize to anyone. This isn't your fault. Being able to eat at Ember House with you makes Merida, Mr. Theodore, and me very happy. This is a special experience for all of us."Xavier's body trembled violently, but his breathing gradually calmed down after being enveloped in Elara's presence. His small hands clutched the fabric at Elara's waist as he buried his face in her embrace, whimpering while desperately trying to suppress any sound.He just felt so pathetic!Elara held Xavier without speaking further, just keeping her palm on the back of his head while trying to give him as much security as possible.Soon, the police arrived. Elara told them, "This woman tried to take this kid, and she also attempted to slap my daughter, but was stopped by her."Harold couldn't help saying, "Elara, aren't yo

Leonard lowered his eyes, his voice gentle as he said, "Very well, I'll defer to your judgment."Elara asked him, "Have you had dinner yet, Mr. Fisher?""Not yet.""Then join us for fondue?"As Elara extended this invitation, Leonard glanced at Theodore before slightly turning up the corners of his lips. "I'd be delighted."Theodore's eyebrow quirked up like a cat that had spotted something intriguing, his dark eyes widening as he watched Leonard's every move.When Leonard's entourage heard he planned to dine at the restaurant, one of the plainclothes security officers approached and said, "One moment, please."The guard took a bowl and ladled out samples from both sides of the fondue pot.After personally testing the food and using chemical reagents for a quick analysis, the guard stepped back and respectfully told Leonard, "Thank you for your patience, sir. Please enjoy your meal."Leonard, in his wheelchair, moved to the side of the table on Elara's right.Elara and Theodo

"Not at all," Theodore's smile deepened in his eyes."If Prof. Fisher brings Xavier to join us rather than trying to separate Elara and me, I'll certainly be magnanimous enough to welcome them. That would showcase my exceptional character."Leonard cast a cold glance at the fox-like man, his voice frigid. "You're not husband material, yet you keep acting like you are."Theodore's voice was eerily calm. "Better hurry up, Leo. If you don't make your move soon, you won't even have a chance to be the other man."With his back to Theodore, Leonard's eyes widened momentarily. He gripped the armrests of his wheelchair tightly but ultimately didn't turn back to engage with Theodore.After Leonard and Xavier left, Elara and Theodore continued dining with Merida at Ember House. When they departed from the restaurant, Elara and Merida sat in the back seat while Theodore drove.Elara was reviewing documents on her iPad. The car interior was quiet, with Merida sitting beside her, looking at a

Angie took a breath and said, "Elara and I are technically at the same level within Quantum Tech."At first, I was quite curious about how your ex-wife, who is clearly out of her depth, managed to get Ms. Price to appoint her as CEO. Later, though, I heard rumors that Ms. Price and your former father-in-law had some romantic history."Angie asked the server for a black iced coffee. Looking out the window, she smiled and continued, "I've heard that your former father-in-law and Ms. Price are quite close. Perhaps he asked her to find a position for his daughter."When I was in Melcina, I'd heard that business in Eucon operates on relationships and connections, but I never imagined that connections could outweigh everything else."Harvey offered no comment on Angie's remarks, though he somewhat agreed with her. Elara securing the top position at Quantum Tech did seem unusual.But from what Angie was saying, it was clear she didn't respect Elara. Realizing this, Harvey couldn't help b

"Want to see more?" Theodore asked him. "I don't mind showing you, but I'm worried you can't handle it."Harvey's eyes radiated coldness, though his lips curled into a cold smile. "I heard you and my ex-wife broke up. Ha! To think you got dumped by my ex-wife. Seems you're not exactly prime material after all!"Harvey leaned back in his chair with casual confidence. He regarded everyone with an air of superiority, fully displaying his arrogance and dignity.Theodore's voice deepened. "Previously, my relationship with Elara was contractual—something you should understand well, Mr. Fisher."Harvey let out a derisive laugh, cold and dismissive in equal measure."But when you play a role long enough, feelings inevitably develop. So now, I'm pursuing her."Theodore's gaze swept across Harvey's face, his eyes dancing with amusement. "Unlike someone here who's not even qualified to pursue her.""Pursue who?" Harvey asked with feigned seriousness. "My ex-wife? Why would that matter to m
