Edward's eyes still didn't move away from her face, not allowing any subtle change of expression to go unnoticed. He stared at her like a man solving his first puzzle, determined and serious.

Ellena was also staring at him this whole time. If outsiders were to see them now, they would've felt the tension rising on the rooftops. They were like a pair of kids, just waiting for the other to budge.

In the end, she's the first one who turned away.

They were just one person?

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 869. He Would Take All the Risks Himself

    Ellena had just brought Elaine to the office when her phone rang.Seeing Martin's name on the screen, she answered immediately."Ellena, I've temporarily suppressed the news on the Internet."She froze for a brief moment. Relief flickered across her face before confusion quickly replaced it."You..."Before she could finish speaking, Martin interrupted gently."Edward contacted me. He asked me to suppress it."Ellena instinctively turned to look at Elaine, who was quietly playing with the plush toy she had brought from home. Not wanting her daughter to overhear, Ellena walked toward the window and lowered her voice."Edward contacted you?""Yes," Martin replied. "He called me last night."There was a brief pause before he added meaningfully, "He also told me to tell you not to worry."A bitter smile tugged at the corner of Ellena's lips."Yes... not worry." Her voice carried an unmistakable trace of sarcasm. "How could I possibly worry?"The words sounded calm, but the resentment she

    Ellena gently stroked Elaine's soft hair.Her movements were slow and comforting, as though she hoped the little girl would not feel too sad.She smiled softly before explaining,"Yes.""There is something very important happening in her family.""So she needs to go back."Her voice was gentle, making the situation sound as natural as possible.Elaine blinked her large eyes.Although she didn't fully understand what "important family matters" meant, she could tell that Aunt Stacy wouldn't be staying with them anymore.After thinking for a moment, she obediently nodded.She didn't ask any more questions.Seeing how sensible Elaine was, Ellena felt both relieved and a little heartbroken.Children often understood more than adults imagined.They simply didn't know how to express it.Meanwhile, although Ellena had agreed without hesitation to let Stacy leave, she knew this matter would brin

    Paul, who was on the other end of the phone, waited for a few seconds.When he didn't hear Ellena's reply, he assumed the news had caught her off guard.He called out cautiously, "President Smith?"His voice pulled Ellena back to reality.She blinked slowly, suppressing the thoughts that had begun to swirl in her mind.After a brief pause, she replied calmly,"There is no hurry."Her tone remained composed, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking."I will go online and take a look first."She preferred seeing the information herself before making any judgment.Only after understanding the entire situation would she decide what to do next."Okay."Paul did not say anything else.He knew Ellena's personality very well.Since she had decided to verify the news herself, there was no point saying anything further.After hanging up the phone, Ellena lowered it onto the coffee table for a moment.The room suddenly became unusually quiet.She sat silently for several seconds before

    Chloe was stunned when she heard Ellena's words.Her eyes widened slightly in surprise."So you already knew?"Ellena nodded calmly and then looked at her. "Is it about Naomi?""Yes." Chloe passed the phone to Ellena and signaled her to look.Ellena took the phone and lowered her gaze to the screen.She had thought it right before. Cyrus had a large number of fans and he had only passed away a few years ago.Even after his death, there were still countless people who remembered him. Every year on the anniversary of his death, many fans would post messages and photos in remembrance of him.As his girlfriend when he passed away, Naomi did indeed carry a lot of topics and labels on her.Her relationship with Cyrus had once attracted enormous attention. Back then, people had discussed them endlessly, and even after all these years, their names still carried a certain degree of popularity.There were three topics relat

  • Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart   Chapter 865. The Punishment She Deserve

    Ellena looked at Twitter but did not see any news related to Naomi's death.She scrolled through the trending topics several times, her slender fingers moving slowly across the screen. Entertainment scandals, celebrity gossip, business news, and various social discussions occupied the trending page, yet there was nothing about the Smith family.Not even a single mention.It could also be because the Smith family did not publicize Naomi's death.Ralph was a person who loved his face. To a certain extent, he was still a bit old-fashioned and conservative.He cared deeply about the Smith family's reputation and image in society. Throughout the years, he had always tried his best to maintain the dignity and prestige of the family. In his eyes, the opinions of outsiders mattered greatly.Naomi died on the day of Jayden's funeral. It would not be good if news of this got out.Just after Grandfather’s funeral, the granddaughter was dea

    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
