Semua Bab I Fell in Love with my Ex: Bab 301 - Bab 310

The next morning, Elena and Asher got into the car and headed toward Rosemere Village. Elena glanced at the trunk, which was packed with all kinds of gift boxes, and couldn’t help feeling stunned.“We’re going to Rosemere Village to bring back two children, not to visit relatives.”Asher smiled.“Bringing the children back and visiting your relatives aren’t mutually exclusive. These are all elders whowatched you grow up from the time you were little. They’re your relatives and friends. I can’t show upempty-handed, can I?” Elena replied, “What relationship do you even have with me? Why can’t you go empty-handed?”She was thinking that anyone who didn’t know the truth might assume Asher was her boyfriend.Asher said, “We may not have a relationship right now, but we will in the future. I should make a goodimpression in advance, don’t you think?”Asher was thinking far ahead.He didn’t want Elena to face any difficulties, so he had to do his best.Seeing how serious Asher was, Elena

Leonard rubbed his temples in frustration.“Elena is already divorced. How do you expect her to find a partner for Evelyn?”The news of Elena ’s divorce had already spread throughout Rosemere Village, and almost everyone knew about it.Except for a few people like Clara, most of the villagers felt sorry for her.Clara replied, “And why can’t she find someone for her? Just look at the man who came with her. He’s obviously wealthy.”She had a sharp eye for these things.Before Leonard could say anything, she continued, “You should ask her to play matchmaker between that man and Evelyn. It looks like Evelyn is interested in him too.”Leonard said nothing, clearly unwilling to discuss the matter.That angered Clara.She glared at Leonard and said irritably, “Let me tell you something. I know all your secrets and your father’s secrets, so don’t think I wouldn’t dare expose them.”The moment she said that, Leonard Marlowe’s expression changed.“What do you know?”“What do I know?”Clara sne

Elena was speechless.After a moment of hesitation, she finally said, “All right, you’re right.”She deliberately glanced at Asher as she continued, “Look at me. I’m learning sewing and cooking from my mother at home. Who wouldn’t consider me a virtuous wife when I get married?” Elena smiled and said nothing.Everyone returned home, and Leonard had already begun preparing dinner. Elena quickly went to help him, and naturally, Asher didn’t hesitate to join them.As for Evelyn, she remained standing where she was, unsure what to do.She watched how attentive Asher was toward Elena and couldn’t understand what this man’s behavior meant.But she couldn’t accept it.A man this outstanding and wealthy was someone she had to have.With that thought in mind, she turned around and left.She needed to get her mother to come up with a plan for her.While Elena and the others were cooking in the kitchen, Evelyn went to her mother in the bedroom and told her Asher’s identity.Shock appeared on C

Elena was stunned for a moment and instinctively asked, “What is it?”Asher said, “I was thinking about your past life.”He looked away from her and gazed into the distance.Hearing his words, Elena said, “You must think I had a difficult life in the village after seeing what happened today, don’t you?”Asher didn’t answer, which clearly meant that he did think so.Especially when he saw Elena refusing to argue with Clara and her daughter, he felt angry, but he also felt sorry for her.He couldn’t imagine how difficult Elena ’s childhood must have been under such circumstances. Elena raised the corner of her lips in a smile.“It wasn’t like that. When my grandfather was alive, I lived a good life. My aunt, Evelyn, and the others never dared to bully me. They would avoid me whenever they saw me.”She continued with a smile, “Jonathan and Elliot were there too, and they protected me. Even the village dogs didn’t dare mess with me.”Now that she remembered those days, she felt that the

Asher continued driving and ignored her, which left Evelyn feeling somewhat frustrated.But she didn’t give up and continued speaking.“Asher, from now on, let’s just be friends and look out for each other.”Asher remained silent.He merely glanced at Elena.The moment their eyes met, Elena cleared her throat.Then her expression suddenly turned cold as she looked toward Evelyn.She said bluntly, without any courtesy, “Your father wants me to bring you here so you canwork hard, not so you can get distracted by unnecessary things. Out of respect for myuncle, I’ll arrange a job for you, but that doesn’t mean you can slack off. If you don’t do yourjob well and end up getting fired, I’ll have no choice but to send you back to the village.”She paused for a moment and glanced at Asher before continuing.“As for your silly ideas... I can choose to ignore them. But if you provoke someone you shouldn’t, you’ll have to think about the consequences. When that happens, I won’t beg for you.”E
