After the whole day, Ellena did not see Ralph in the company.

Ellena asked a colleague who had a good relationship with her, “Didn’t the chairman come to the company today?”

Her colleague looked around and mysteriously said, “I heard that the chairman has gone abroad.”

Hearing this, Ellena’s expression darkened slightly. At this critical moment, why did Ralph suddenly go abroad?

Suddenly, she recalled what she had said to Ralph earlier.

Could it be that Ralph went abroad to invite Old Mast

    Ellena looked at Madeline quietly for a moment before speaking.Her gaze was calm, but her tone was cold."I want to go home."The simple sentence carried an unmistakable sense of rejection.Madeline's face turned even paler."Ellena…" Madeline stood outside the car window, tears filling her eyes. She reached out and tightly gripped the edge of the window, her fingers trembling. "Ellena, do not be so cruel."The sight of Madeline crying like this would have shaken Ellena deeply in the past.There had once been a time when all she wanted was her mother's affection.A single kind word from Madeline had been enough to make her happy for days.Back then, if Madeline had cried in front of her, Ellena would have panicked immediately. She would have tried every possible way to comfort her, regardless of who was right or wrong.But that was the past.Now, when she looked at the woman before her, Ellena no lo

    Naomi's ending today could be summed up in a single sentence.She had done too many wrong things, so she ended up with a tragic ending.However, even so, Ellena could not agree with Spencer's methods.No matter how Naomi had treated her in the past, Ellena's education and worldview made it impossible for her to accept what Spencer had done. She could not accept the idea of trading one life for another, nor could she accept the notion that someone had the right to decide who deserved to live or die.Life was not something that could be measured, compared, or exchanged.No one had the authority to stand above others and determine their fate.Even if that person was Spencer.Even if the person who had suffered was herself.She looked at Spencer steadily and sneered lightly."Do you want me to say thank you," Ellena asked coldly, "so that you can feel more at ease?"Her eyes were sharp and clear.There was not

    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

    Ellena buttoned her clothes slowly, her fingers moving with care as she stole a glance at the woman packing her medical kit."Ms. Martha, are you usually busy?" she asked, her voice calm but laced with curiosity.Martha didn’t look up. Her slender fingers moved deftly, placing each item into the ba

    Ellena stared blankly at Edward with a complicated expression on her face.She seemed to be a little surprised. In the end, she calmed down.After a while, Ellena said, "Alright, I understand."Then, she got up and went to the bathroom.At the same time, Edward acted as if nothing had happened. He

    Ellena had just stood up when she heard Edward's voice."You don't need to prepare food."Ellena turned back to look at him.Edward said indifferently, "I have asked someone to bring food from Sea Horizon Club."Ellena's eyes flashed, but she did not say anything. She only gave him a faint nod.Som

    Although Nicholas didn't know who the caller was, there weren't many people who could trigger Ellena’s wild mood swing.He quietly looked at Ellena's phone and appeared to be calm, "I will go back first."Ellena smiled and nodded at him.After Nicholas left, Ellena pick
