"Thank you." Ellena smiled at Madeline. Although Ellena was thanking her, Madeline felt that there was a deeper meaning in her smile. Her cat eyes seemed to have understood everything. Madeline could not help but shiver. The chopsticks in her hand could not be held firmly for a moment and fell to the ground. Ellena bent over to help her pick up the chopsticks and said, "Mom, you must hold the chopsticks steadily. If you drop them again, I might not be able to help you pick up the chopsticks." Her tone was slow and her tone was gentle. But when Madeline heard it, she felt that there was a deeper meaning to it. Madeline frowned and put on a smile again, "I was just careless." "Is that so?" Ellena smiled and stood up, "I am full. I will go out first." Actually, she did not eat much. Ralph frowned as he watched Ellena walk out. He felt that there was something strange about Ellena. The moment Ellena walked out of Ralph's office, the expression on her face completely disappeared,
Ellena read the comment again.Thanks to the credit of fighting with Naomi over the past few months, the more she read, the more she felt that the comment seemed to have been intentionally posted. There was even a group of hired netizens in the comments below.Ellena thought of Chloe. She sent a screenshot of this comment that had tens of thousands of comments to Chloe and asked, "Did you send this comment? You even hired netizens?"Chloe replied instantly. F * ck! How did you know? To be honest, did you install something strange on my phone?"Ellena smiled and replied concisely. "It was my intuition."Chloe said, "Your intuition is really strong! However, if you want to find someone to expose the Smith Group, why don't you bring me along? I can support you!"Chloe’s troublemaking personality had never changed."Don't get involved. I can handle it. You are a public figure. Be careful not to be discovered and will smear your reputation." Ellena was really worried about Chloe. If someo
Ellena no longer had any interest in appreciating Naomi's ugly appearance.She went to the bus stop and took a car back to the villa.Once she entered, she threw her bag and collapsed on the sofa. She was so tired that she did not want to move.She did not do anything today. Why did she feel so tired?She might be feeling uncomfortable, so she felt very tired.She opened her Weibo and saw "Blackheart Factory" "Unrefined Video Blackheart Factory." These two hot topics were pushed to the front of the trending list.The comments were full of curses.Occasionally, there were a few comments that defended the Smith Group and Naomi, but they were quickly drowned out.Very quickly, Ellena saw the video of Naomi being surrounded at the entrance of the Smith Group.In the video, Naomi looked completely like a madman.The hot comment below the video was, "Why do I feel that this woman looks more like a real lunatic the more I look at her? Otherwise, after her indecent video is released, how can
As soon as they finished their meal, "Nicklaus" chased Martin away.Martin clung to the door frame, unwilling to leave. "It's so dark and so cold. Can't you just let me stay here for a night?"Ellena found it hard to associate Martin, who was clinging to the door frame like a puppy, with Director Collins from the famous D-Fronts Media.He might have been possessed by something strange.Martin felt Ellena's gaze and coughed lightly. He immediately let go of his hand. "Actually, it's not that cold. I'll go first."After Martin left, only Ellena and “Nicklaus” were left in the hall.Ellena looked outside the door. She was a little confused. Why was Edward not back yet?Where did he go often?"I'll go up first." Ellena glanced at “Nicklaus” and turned around to go upstairs.However, "Nicklaus" suddenly stopped her. "Ellena.""What?" Ellena stopped and looked at him.She was already very white. Under the light, her face looked more like it was covered with a layer of fine powder. Her eyes
Ellena was paying attention to Ralph's expression as she spoke.When she mentioned the black card, she clearly saw a guilty look on Ralph's face.Now he knew guilt?But it was already too late.Ralph saw that Ellena did not look like she was pretending to be scared and felt a little troubled. He said, "Can't you just not tell him about the black card first?"Ellena sneered in her heart. It was already at this time and Ralph did not want to hand over the black card.Although she thought so in her heart, the fear on her face became deeper and deeper.She secretly pinched her leg. It was so painful that tears rolled in her eyes. She squeezed harder and tears fell out.Ellena brought her mouth with tears as she said, "That black card was just lent to me by Edward. I will return it to him later. Even if I don't tell him, he will find out sooner or later."As if she had thought of something terrible, Ellena cried even harder. “You don't know how scary that person is. He is simply a devil. H
Ellena's confusion deepened, "Why are you looking for me?"But she also knew this was not the place to talk. She grabbed his arm, pulled “Nicklaus” and walked out.Edward was being pulled by her. Because he was tall, she had to take two steps each time he took a step. This way, there was a sense of calmness on his body."Why are you looking for me?" After leaving the Smith Group, Ellena asked the same question again.In her opinion, “Nicklaus” would not come to her for no reason."Nicklaus" did not answer her question immediately. Instead, he looked at her without batting an eyelid.Ellena had cried before. Although there was no trace of it now, Edward still noticed that her eyes were a little swollen and there was a trace of unusual redness in them.She had cried before?But why?He narrowed his eyes slightly. He really could not associate the word "Ellena" with "crying”.Moreover, she was still in the Smith Group. She couldn't possibly have cried because Ralph, could she?After a fe
Ellena stomped her feet and waited for him to finish the call.Two minutes later, "Nicklaus" hung up the phone. With a cold face, he looked back at her expressionlessly.Ellena got goosebumps all over her body when he looked at her. She gave him the card and cash. "I promised to treat you to dinner. Of course I have to pay.""Nicklaus" took back the card and did not take the cash.Ellena still wanted to give him the money. "Hey, take the money!""Nicklaus’s" eyes fell on her slender white fingers and stretched out his hand. Ellena thought he wanted to take the money but did not expect him to directly hold her hand.Ellena's expression changed slightly. Before she could say anything, "Nicklaus" forcefully pulled her into his embrace. He lowered his eyes. His ink-like eyes were dark and churning. His deep voice was like an aged wine. It was so fragrant that it was intoxicating.But what he said was very shameless. "If you must return the money to me, then kiss me. If you kiss me, I will
When she thought of what Ellena and “Nicklaus” had just done here, a flash of jealousy appeared in Naomi’s eyes. "Why are you still entangled with Nicklaus? Don't you know that you are a married woman? Edward ignoring you is your own fault!"Naomi's words poked exactly Ellena's sore point.Ellena's expression changed slightly. But she refused to back down. "Even if Edward doesn't care about me, I’m still his wife. But what about you? If the Smith Group goes bankrupt, no one will tolerate you anymore.”Naomi's face turned pale. She pointed at her and said sharply, "Shut up!"Although Naomi was pampered by the family to the point of being lawless, she also knew that she could play without fear outside, it was only because of the Smith Group behind her.Although the Smith Group was not a big company in Herton City, it had been established for many years and had a solid foundation. It also had many established companies and had some reputation in the industry.When Old Master Smith founde
