Chapter 40: A Banquet
Ellena stood behind Daniel and took half a step back. She wanted to stay away from this man. She put a look of confusion in her face. “I really didn’t do it.”
"Daniel, what are you trying to say? Are you trying to protect this ugly bitch?” Naomi said angrily. If looks could kill, the other two would've already been ten feet into the ground."What the hell are you talking about? She's your sister!" Now, he was starting to see her true colors, the more he looked, the more he disliked Naomi.Naomi, however, still didn't back down. She had been spoiled ever since she was young, always getting what she wanted when she asked for it. "Stop pretending to be such an angel. Wasn't it your idea to frame her? To get her to admit that she stole my fiancé? If anything, you played a part in this too!"“Even if I did, it's because I believed in all your nonsense. But now I've finally seen who the real monster is." Daniel replied."Real monster? Oh, you haven't seen nothingRelated chapters
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 41: Didn't Have Courage to Step Forward
Although her vision was a bit hazy, Ellena's consciousness was still somewhat clear. She could feel two men were supporting her on each side. The loud noises echoing from the bar had gotten softer and softer, and her surroundings became darker with each step. There were strong. No matter how hard she struggled under their grip, they still wouldn't let go. It was obvious that she couldn't break free just by doing this anymore. "Where are you taking me?" Her voice was hoarse and unsteady. She wanted to shout for help, but they were already nearing the exit. Even if she did scream, nobody would've heard her. Even if someone heard, they wouldn’t care. Ellena felt that she had been brought into a room and her entire body being thrown onto the bed. Bending her arms, she tried to support herself to sit up, but she was limp. So she fell once again. What the hell had they given her to make her so nauseous? Just then she heard their conversations. "You sent
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 42: She's Being Served by a Group of Men
Martin chased after Edward. Upon seeing Edward's frozen figure, he followed his line of sight, and looked forward. Martin was shocked. “This… Is that Ell…” Noticing that Edward was gloomy, he hurriedly changed his words. “She isn’t like Ellena. I’ll go over and take a look. That woman is definitely not your wife." Edward's face was tight, but he didn't say another word. Martin took it as a sign of agreement. Without another word, he took a step towards the couple. Martin was nervous. Even though he wasn’t familiar with Ellena, he could tell that the woman looked so much like her from behind. Yet, that couldn't be her, right? He saw the way she had gotten along with Edward the other day, so Edward naturally would've known if she was cheating on him. 'Please don't let this woman be her.' Martin pleaded at the back of his mind. He had been friends with Edward for so many years, and he could see how much the man cared for this woman. Although Ellena wasn't any b
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 43: You Took Advance of Me in My Sleep
At the sight of her obscured figure, Edward finally relaxed. He didn't even notice he had been holding his breath this entire time. Squatting down, he reached over to touch her head. Pushing a few strands of hair that were covering her face, he shook his head and sighed. His voice was hoarse, barely heard by the people at the back. “Ellena, I finally found you.” Her hair was messy, and her clothes were torn and wrinkled. There were fine beads of sweat coating her pale forehead, but fortunately, she had gotten out fine and unscathed. Edward couldn’t help but run his fingers on her cheek. “I’m here, you're safe now." Just as he was about to pick her up, she opened her eyes and moved farther away from him. “Get away… Please, don't touch me." Her gaze was misty and frightened and her eyes were full of tears, like a little kitten who wanted nothing more than to hide and retreat. Had they hurt her this much? Upon seeing her vulnerable face, Edward's star
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 44: Is He Hate Woman?
When Ellena saw that “Nicklaus” was serious and did not seem to be lying at all, she became nervous. “You're really saying that we..." She paused, desperately trying to find the words to explain what she was feeling. She really couldn't remember what had happened after she had fallen off that balcony. The drug must've already taken effect during this time, so it was possible that if they really had done something, she wouldn't be able to know. Her mind went blank for a few seconds before she finally thought of Edward. If he found out, she'd be dead! And the fact that she was in “Nicklaus's” room in nothing more than her pajamas, the thought was about to send her into a stroke. She couldn’t stay in this room anymore! With a pale face, she lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed, but Edward pushed her back down. “You look exhausted after what had happened last night. You should get some rest. I'll ask someone to cook whatever you want to e
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 45: It Was a Trap
Ellena raised her head in surprise, gazing at “Nicklaus” before glancing back at the phone in her hand. "You bought this?" “Nice try. Cousin bought it for you.” Edward rolled his eyes and began to eat. Ellena sneered at his words. "As if I'd accept it if it was from you." Ellena took the phone out of the small box. A small smile appeared on her lips as she analyzed it carefully. As Edward was the one who had bought it for her, she accepted it. After all, they were already married, so there wasn't anything wrong with giving and receiving gifts. Ellena noticed that there was a SIM card next to her phone. It was the number she had used before. Once she had everything installed, she immediately dialed Chloe's number. The phone only rang once before it was answered. “Ellena." Chloe's worried voice sounded from the other end of the line. There weren't any background noises from her end, so her words were loud and clear. "Are you okay? You weren't pi
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 46: He Is Not That Bad
There was complete silence before Madeline quickly added, "I've been too busy in the past, so I wasn't able to find time to be with you back then. How about you let me make it up to you now? What do you say? Let me apologize for all that lost time." If this had happened a couple of months back, Ellena would've been very ecstatic. In fact, whatever her mother needed, she'd readily provide, as long as it meant that they'd grow closer together. However, after everything that had happened now, she knew that her mother's intentions weren't that simple. How careless of her to use being busy as an excuse! Being busy...her mother had always used that as an excuse, but whenever Naomi was involved, she'd drop everything and run out the front door. She never took any of Ellena's concerns to heart, which resulted in their estranged relationship. Besides, Madeline was a full-time housewife. She didn't even need to manage anything inside the house given the number of maids tha
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 47: You Can Kiss Me to Compensate
Ellena raced out of the villa, lowering her flushed face to avoid being seen by the bodyguards who were passing by. As soon as she reached the front gates, she leaned against the columns and exhaled heavily. She must stay far away from “Nicklaus” if she knew what's good for her. The man just didn't know when to stop! Even as the cool breeze brushed up against her face, the warmth still hadn't faded as much as she would like it to. Just as she was about to check the time, a car stopped right beside her. She turned her head almost instinctively to see that the window had been lowered, revealing “Nicklaus’s” cold dark eyes. In an instant, she froze. The moment their gazes collided Ellena felt her entire world stopping before her. A light shiver shot down her spine, followed by the warmth of natural sunlight. Quickly moving her eyes away, she quickened her pace. Edward drove slowly and closely followed her. He kept his car alongside her and said in a low voice with a
Rich Family's Substitute Sweetheart Chapter 48: 15% of the Smith Group
Ellena sighed. Back then she hoped that Ralph would give her some. Even if it was only 1%, it would at least make her feel like she was a Smith. Now, it seemed that when she didn’t care about the shares anymore was also the time when Ralph wanted to give it to her. She suppressed a bitter laugh as she thought of all the times she had cried at their words and crumbled at their insults. How ironic! Ellena couldn’t help herself and actually laughed aloud. It was really ridiculous. Although she knew that Ralph had ulterior motives in mind, she still asked, "How many shares are you planning to give me?""As you're my daughter, you'll receive more shares than your mother." He said vaguely, patting his chest. There was silence before he continued, "Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly. After all, I'm your father." Her shares were more than Madeline's? Ellena pursed her lips. Hm... Since he had already mentioned the shares, how can she make it easy
