At the hospital.
The pain in Zoey’s face was so intense she felt like crying, but each tear that fell only. intensified her discomfort.
She asked painfully, “Elijah, is it still not my turn?”
Elijah looked down at her and said coldly, “No.”
“Can you let the doctor see me first… Zoey said,
Zoey looked up as she spoke. When she met Elijah’s dark and dense eyes, Zoey felt a surge of fear that made her swallow her words.
Elijah playfully turned his ruby thumb ring, his gaze lowered in a way that was both alluring and intimidating. His imposing height felt like a mountain bearing down on her, stealing her breath.
Zoey immediately understood that he was angry
Elijah’s eyes, as cold as the night, flickered as he spat, “Who do you
you think you
are?”
Zoey’s checks flushed even redder, her eyes brimming with tears she fought to hold back.
Instead of showing her anger, she put on an aggrieved expression and reached out to pull Elijah.
Elijah raised his hand to adjust his sleeve and casually avoided her hand.
“Elijah, I’m your fiancée, Zoey said with reddened eyes.

Elijah bowed slightly. “You’re an outsider here, but Eleanor is legally recognized as the second daughter of the Davis family. Regardless, it’s not your place to bully her. You and I both know what’s really happening between us.”
With that, Elijah stuffed the note into Zoey’s hand and turned to leave.
Zoey’s eyes were filled with disbelief. She stood up unwillingly and wanted to keep Elijah, but she was stopped by Avery,
“Miss Taylor, please take a seat,” said Avery.
“Elijah… Elijah… Zoey said.
Zoey couldn’t bring herself to push Avery
away: resigning herself to the situation, she gritted
her teeth and leaned back in her chair.
She lowered her head and realized that the note was blank.
She was just going to endure the pain here.
Zoey could no longer maintain her composure. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She could only queue up to register.
Eleanor woke up but couldn’t reach Lily.
She groped around and called, “Mom?”
A pair of slender hands held her and a gentle voice came. “Eleanor. Lily was very tired, so I let
her go
back.”
Hearing the voice, Eleanor relaxed.
“Jaxen, what brings you here?” she asked.
“You still have the cheek to ask? I told you to call me if something happened. I only found out about it online!”
Eleanor asked, slightly stunned, “Online?”
Eleanor had indeed used this method to threaten the three of them, but she did not let her roommates upload it online..

Jaxen reassured her, “There’s no need to worry. Your name wasn’t in the video. I only knew it was you after recognizing your voice.”
“Then now on the Internet…” Eleanor muttered.
“The three women’s accusations have sparked outrage online. Netizens have criticized them, and customers have returned their products. The cost of their contract breaches alone could bankrupt them. Furthermore, many women they allegedly wronged have come forward. They’re facing public humiliation and potential jail time,” Jaxen said.
Eleanor nodded.
Suddenly, she smelled a fragrance.
Jaxen, what did you bring?” asked Eleanor.
Jaxen tapped her nose playfully. “You have a good nose! We made tiramisu at home, and I know you like it, so I brought some just for you.
“Thank
you, Jaxen,” said Eleanor.
Eleanor raised her hand to take it.
However, Jaxen avoided her hand and said gently, “Let me feed you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he brought a piece of tiramisu to Eleanor’s lips.
Unable to refuse, Eleanor opened her mouth and ate it.
However, at the thought of such an intimate action, she blushed in embarrassment.
Outside the door, a black shadow flashed past and threw the thermos box in his hand into the trash can.
As he walked down the corridor, his phone rang.
Elijah, there’s a lot of tiramisu left. Do you need to send some more over?”
“No,” said Elijah.
