Chapter 26 Hospital
“I’m afraid there’s more than kick me out” Eleanor and Lily looked at each other and knew what w
was going on
Jayden knew about the night Eleanor and Elijah spent together. He had put so much effort into Elijah. He would never let this matter become a stain in Elijah’s life. He was waiting for an opportunity to get rid of Eleanor.
Maten Zory. Eleanor felt like an ant that could be crushed at anytime.
Eleanor closed her eyes. A scorching pain spread on her wound, as if a fire was burning her flesh.
Lily held her hand tightly in fear and said in a low voice, “Eleanor, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have forced you to go on a blind date. You wouldn’t have gotten involved in these things.
Eleanor patted her hand instead. “Mom, believe me.”
Although Lily was timid, she was sincere to Eleanor.
She had forced Eleanor to go on a blind date and get married just because she was afraid that the Davis family would not let go of Eleanor after she slept with Elijah.
Lily took a deep breath and said. “Eleanor, when I came, I asked around. The man who broke into Zoey’s house insisted that you instructed him to do it. Now, Zoey wants to hold you accountable. She has Elijah behind her back. What are you going to
do?”
“Mom, bail me out first. Eleanor was very uncomfortable there.
“Okay, wait a minute.” Lily got up and walked out. But soon, she pushed the door open and entered with a strange expression.
Eleanor asked, “Mom… Before she could finish, a tall figure appeared behind Lily.
It was Elijah.
Lily didn’t dare to move. She said helplessly. “The police won’t let you out on bail,”
It wasn’t that the police station didn’t allow it, it was that Elijah didn’t allow it
Eleanor gave Lily a look and said calmly, “Mom, you can go back now.”
Lily wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she nodded and left.
Elijah walked over with his back facing the light. The halo depicted his tall and cold figure
Before he even sat down, a cold intent had already spread out from the corners of his eyes.
He scoffed. “You shouldn’t have touched her.”
These words were very familiar to Eleanor. In her previous life, he would say these words to her as long as something happened to Zory and their son.
She explained but the end was always cruel. He watched her walk towards death step by step. Therefore, she could not be bothered to explain now.
“So? Elijah, are you here to be the peacemaker and make me reconcile with Zoey as with Mateo?”
Perhaps he did not expect Eleanor to ask this, Elijah went silent.
Then, he spoke calmly, cutting through everything like a sharp blade. “Eleanor. She’s different from Mateo, so you should be punished.”
Eleanor was not surprised to hear such words from him again, but it was also very painful.
She curled her fingers, silently restraining her a
anger.
She’s not different from Mateo; she’s different from me. She’s pure and noble. She’s your woman, and I’m nothing. I shouldn’t compete with Zoey or defend myself. I should just accept my fate and admit my mistakes, right? Elijah, have you/2

thought about what would happen if I did that? Would you let me go? So what should I do? Die?” Eleanor’s words were heart- wrenching, and after finishing, she let out a laugh.

She raised her injured hand at Elijah and shook it. “It nearly cut my nerves. Are you disappointed? If my hand is crippled,
Zory will be the sole representative of the school at the competition Online, it’ll look like I’m just slandering her. Jayden will use this to get rid of me, while your Zory remains the untouchable goddess. You never cared about what I said or did. You only cared about what you wanted. Why are you being so hypocritical about punishment now?
“Mateo has harmed a lot of people in private. Shouldn’t he be punished? But you forced me to reconcile. I didn’t do anything, and you want me to be punished? Why? Tell me why! Because you feel sorry for Zoey!”
Eleanor stared at Elijah with her scarlet e
eyes.
Elijah did not move or speak as if it had nothing to do with him.
Suddenly, Eleanor felt tired. “Go away and take good care of your Zoey. We have nothing to do with each other.”
Elijah lowered his dark eyes, his expression a mix of brightness and shadow, hinting at unfathomable emotions. But that glimpse was fleeting, quickly replaced by a cold, dangerous demeanor.
“Are you done? Since you don’t feel remorse, reflect on yourself here.” With that, he straightened his suit indifferently and stood up.
