There's No Turning Back Chapter 323
Many in the business world believed Theodore wasn't the type to blindly throw money at a woman. His high-profile announcement of a relationship with Elara must have had ulterior motives.Elara met Theodore's gaze, seeing her own reflection in his eyes. She could even hear her heart pounding violently.The skin on her chest seemed to vibrate with each beat, her blood surging so intensely she feared her racing heart would give her away!She instinctively leaned back, pressing herself against the car window to create as much distance from Theodore as possible.Theodore noticed her reaction, and a fleeting sense of loss flashed in his eyes. "Sorry."He took a step back, putting a clear distance between them. Even though they both knew this intimacy was just an act for others, their body's instinctive reactions couldn't deceive each other.A fine layer of sweat formed above Elara's lips. "I'm fine…"Theodore probably thought she was uncomfortable with his sudden closeness, but in rea

Theodore smirked, and the doctor on the phone asked him, "Should we report this to the police?""Do you want the whole world to know I had urological surgery?"The doctor on the other end let out a mischievous laugh. "Your medical records were stolen by a hacker. It won't be long before the elites of the Capitol know about Mr. Theodore Snapp's… performance issues!"The man's long, clean fingers tapped lightly on the steering wheel. He glanced at the rearview mirror, where the Maybach was reflected."Proceed with today's follow-up as scheduled."The voice on the phone sounded concerned. "Aren't you worried…"Theodore stepped on the gas and turned the car around. "This is called 'luring the snake out of its hole.'"Watching Theodore drive away, Harvey got out of his car.The man was dressed in an expensive black suit. His face was cold and his deep eyes were like a dark pool on a winter night, unfathomable and mysterious.Harvey pressed the elevator button. The doors opened, and

Elara Jones was carrying her daughter as she rushed to the hotel. At this moment, her son's fifth birthday party had already begun.Meanwhile, Harvey Fisher stood beside their son as the warm glow of the candles illuminated the child's tender face.Beau Fisher clasped his hands together and made a wish. "I wish Ms. Niamh could be my new mom."Elara was shivering from the cold as it was raining heavily outside. She had gotten herself soaked trying to keep her daughter and the birthday cake dry.Her clothes clung to her body like a thin layer of ice, wrapping her in cold discomfort.Niamh Jones burst into hearty laughter. "How many times do I have to tell you? Don't call me Ms. Niamh! Call me Niamh! Your dad and I are more like brothers, so I can only be your second dad or something."Her laughter echoed through the private room. The guests, who were all Niamh's close buddies, joined in the laughter. Only Niamh would dare to tease Harvey this way in front of so many people.Beau b

Niamh turned to Harvey and made a playful face. "Elara misunderstood us again. I'll go explain everything to her.""There's nothing to explain. She's just too sensitive."Harvey's expression remained indifferent as his gaze shifted to the half-eaten birthday cake Elara had left behind. His brows were knit.With Harvey's final word on the matter, the tension in the room eased. Elara storming out wasn't a big deal anyway.The others chimed in agreement. "Elara's just upset. Harvey can calm her down when he gets home.""Exactly. There's no way she'd actually divorce Harvey. Everyone knows Elara almost gave her life to have his kids.""Who knows, she might already regret walking out the door!""Come on, let's eat the cake! By the time Harvey gets home, Elara will probably be standing at the door like a loyal wife waiting for her husband!"Harvey's brows relaxed as he imagined Elara timidly standing by the door, cautiously trying to please him.Meanwhile, Beau savored the cake Niam

Harvey's suggestion to have Scotch eggs was, in truth, a ploy to get Mary to contact Elara. He thought he was already offering her a way back into the fold."Mrs. Fisher said she isn't coming back," said Mary.Harvey choked on his coffee, unable to suppress a coughing fit.Mary sensed something was amiss. "Did you and Mrs. Fisher have an argument, Mr. Fisher?""Mind your own business!" Harvey's sharp tone chilled the air in the dining room.Mary shrank back, not daring to say another word while Harvey tightened his grip on the mug in his hand.How could Elara possibly not come back? By now, she should already be preparing the homemade lunch she always sent to his office.Whenever Elara upset him in the past, she would personally deliver lunch to the office as a reconciliation gesture.…Bambi sat at the dining table, and her eyes lit up when she saw the breakfast. "Wow! Chicken noodle soup!"Bambi loved chicken noodle soup, but Beau would gag at the sight of it. At the Fisher

Harvey had already hung up on the other end of the line.Elara got back into her car, pressed the accelerator, and sped out of the parking space. She didn't notice the black sports car trailing her like a shadow.…The scenery on both sides of the road blurred into streaks as the car raced past. The silver Volvo streaked across the asphalt like lightning.Elara's dark eyes fixed firmly on the road ahead. It had been a long time since she had driven this fast. The rush of adrenaline surged in sync with the speedometer needle climbing to its peak.She overtook three flashy sports cars in quick succession, leaving their drivers shouting in surprise."Whoa! Who the hell was that?"Someone in another car instructed while speaking through a Bluetooth earpiece, "Get me the details on that license plate."The modified sports cars were left far behind one at a time. Elara didn't ease off the accelerator even on the winding curves of the mountain road.The group of young thrill-seekers

Meanwhile, Niamh stepped off her modified motorcycle while carrying a paper bag. The security guard stared wide-eyed at the woman in skintight yoga pants.Niamh casually tossed her loose hair over her shoulder. She then greeted the guard with a carefree smile, and entered the kindergarten.She already knew which class Beau was in, and she walked over with a grin upon spotting Bridget."Hi there, I brought more wax bottle candies for Beau. I heard the ones he brought were a big hit with the other kids."Bridget eyed Niamh critically. "So, you're the one who allowed Beau to bring those candies to school?"Niamh's face lit up with excitement. "Yes! These wax bottle candies were made by a friend of mine using premium beeswax…""So, it was you who nearly caused my son to choke to death!"The furious shout exploded behind Niamh. A resounding slap landed squarely across her face as she turned, leaving her seeing stars."Why the hell are you hitting me?" Niamh yelled."It's because yo

Elara's mind went blank. It was as if a tidal wave had crashed over her, tearing at her body and fueling a storm of anger and humiliation.Her expression remained calm as she reached out and picked up the necklace, while Niamh's eyes lit up with a mocking gleam.Harvey leaned against the sofa, and looked away. He was convinced that Elara was like a dog—neglected one moment but wagging her tail the next the moment he beckoned her.Elara hooked a finger under the necklace around Niamh's neck, pulling it forward. She then held the two necklaces side by side."Niamh, the mother-of-pearl on your necklace is of much better quality. How about we trade?"She didn't call out the fake necklace directly as Niamh would have no shortage of excuses to dodge responsibility. Elara wanted Niamh to silently swallow the loss.The delicate chain tightened against the back of Niamh's neck, and she froze awkwardly. Her earlier anticipation of Elara foolishly wearing the fake necklace out in public and

Harvey was stunned! He stood frozen in front of the urology department for a few seconds before turning and walking away.Once he got into his car, he contacted a hacker to infiltrate the hospital's urology department's system and retrieve Theodore's medical records.Since it was a private hospital with strong confidentiality measures, the hacker could only access Theodore's records from that day.When Harvey opened the file the hacker sent him, his eyes widened in shock. A few seconds later, Harvey laughed. There was a disdainful snort escaping his throat.Theodore Snapp… was actually impotent!…A few days later, a silver supercar pulled into the underground parking lot of the commercial building where Joss Tech was located.Elara had just unbuckled her seatbelt when Theodore, who was driving, got out of the car. He walked around the front of the car and opened the passenger door.The tall, impeccably dressed man in an expensive suit stood outside the door, exuding a charm th

Harvey called Mary. "Do you know what shoe size Elara usually wears?""Huh?" Mary held her phone and looked out the window, half-expecting to see a comet crashing into Earth.This was truly unprecedented—Harvey Fisher was actually asking about Elara Jones' shoe size. But why would he want to know?Relying on a vague memory, Mary gave Harvey Elara's shoe size. Harvey then relayed the size to the sales associate.The sales associate smiled. "Are you buying these for your girlfriend?"Harvey paused. "Why would you think it's for a girlfriend?"The sales associate's cheeks flushed red under the man's gaze. "It must be a new girlfriend, right? You don't even know her shoe size."It felt like a wad of paper had been stuffed into Harvey's throat, making it hard to breathe. He had been married to Elara for seven years, yet he couldn't even remember her birthday.In truth, if he wanted to find out, he could easily access all of Elara's information. But he had never bothered.It seemed

Niamh pouted and reluctantly took off the high heels, tossing them onto the floor."See? I took them off!"Harvey lowered his long, thick lashes, his gaze fixed on the red-soled high heels on the ground."Throw them in the trash!"Niamh was shocked. "But I just bought these heels!"The man's dark eyes gleamed like those of a dangerous beast as he warned Niamh, "From now on, no one is allowed to wear this type of high heel in front of me!""You don't like these heels?" Niamh muttered. "Is it because Elara wore them?"In her mind, Niamh was practically screaming. How had she stepped right into Harvey's minefield?She must have been too engrossed in that video of Harvey, mistakenly thinking he enjoyed being stepped on by Elara in high heels!But on second thought, how could Harvey possibly like that plain Jane, Elara?When Elara stepped on him, he must have felt disgusted and repulsed!Niamh softened her tone. "If you make me throw these heels away, what am I supposed to wear b

"Oh my! Oh my god!" The young men in the private room erupted into exaggerated cheers and laughter."Pigs must be flying—Niamh Jones is wearing high heels! This is too funny! Hahahaha!""Niamh! Did you lose your mind? Why on earth would you strap on stilts and go out like that?"Niamh pulled down the black mask covering her face. She had applied heavy makeup, hoping her still-swollen face would look somewhat presentable under the dim lighting."You guys always say I have no femininity. Well, today I'm going to show you what real femininity looks like!""Oh my goodness!"The wealthy young heirs in the room doubled over with laughter, some even wiping tears from their eyes."Niamh! Come on, take a few steps for us!""Everyone, pay attention! Niamh's showing off her newly installed legs! Hahahaha!" These young heirs treated Niamh as nothing more than a joke.The fact that Niamh could still appear by Harvey's side after the Riverfront Avenue car accident proved that, in Harvey's e

"I saw that woman enter another building. I figured she was meeting a friend or something."Who would've thought the elevator would break down shortly after I got in? I was stuck in there with those bodyguards all night…"Ethel covered her face as she recounted her harrowing experience to her son. When the elevator doors finally opened, Ethel took a step forward and immediately wet herself. It was a scene she never wanted to relive.After returning to the Fisher family, Ethel fired all the bodyguards who had been trapped in the elevator with her. She couldn't bear to see them without being reminded of her humiliating ordeal at Spring Garden.Mary brought over the freshly made chicken noodle soup. Harvey took a bite and frowned."Did you follow Elara's recipe?" Harvey asked.Mary quickly nodded. "Yes, we followed Ms. Jones' instructions precisely—not an ounce more, not an ounce less."But even though the Fisher family's cook strictly adhered to Elara's notes, the chicken noodle s

Ethel was also a bit surprised. Normally, Harvey wouldn't even deign to say Elara's name."Harvey, have you seen Elara recently?"Harvey's expression stiffened slightly, a cold detachment settling over his handsome face. Even in front of his mother, he remained aloof."No."Ethel also thought it was impossible for her son to have any further involvement with Elara."She's actually benefited from this mess—she's now the acting CEO of Joss Tech!"Ethel's tone was dripping with sarcasm. She didn't think much of Elara becoming the acting CEO."She couldn't even manage our household properly, and now she's running a company? Ha!" Ethel couldn't help but laugh.She didn't notice Harvey's frown."Anyway, Joss Tech is going to be sold. Let her play CEO for a few days and get it out of her system."The malice Ethel directed toward Elara was palpable, making Harvey feel slightly uncomfortable."Mom, did you go to Spring Garden recently…" Harvey almost asked if she had gone to Spring G

This further proved that his disappearance and reappearance were entirely orchestrated by Leonard.Harvey walked into the dining room. As he looked at the familiar breakfast spread, he suddenly felt as if an eternity had passed."Harvey, you're back," Ethel said as she walked in, having not seen her son in a while."Mom," Harvey greeted her with a neutral tone.Ethel sat down and joined him for the meal. Harvey then picked up his fork, and in front of him was his usual Melcinian-style breakfast.However, he had no appetite. He tried taking a bite of the sandwich, but all he could think about was the bowl of soup Elara had brought him."Make me a bowl of chicken noodle soup," Harvey instructed Mary."What?" Mary hesitated. "That'll take at least half an hour…"Mary glanced at Ethel, who asked in surprise, "Why do you suddenly want to eat that? Soup isn't filling. Melcinian food is much more nutritious than Euconian food!"Harvey said to Mary, "Go make it."Mary nodded. "Alrigh
