“We’ve been wondering when we’d see you, Ellie. You’re gorgeous! Come on in!” Olivia still greeted


    Ellen with a zestful smile. “Yeah. Pleasee in,” Connor said.


    However, Ellen shook her head. “I won’t be going in. I’m just here to take a look at you. If you need


    anything, you can contact the staff members here. They’ll assist you.”


    All of a sudden, Olivia wanted to take Ellen’s hand, but the bodyguard raised his hand and stopped the


    woman from approaching. In an instant, Olivia’s face stiffened. She’s put on airs, huh?


    Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    Jared had told the bodyguards to stop the Aguirres from approaching Ellen. She was pregnant, after


    all, and he was worried that the Aguirres might identally hurt her.


    “Is this how you treat us now, Ellen? With all the bodyguards around you?” Selena snorted, feeling


    displeased over her mother’s treatment. “Don’t say that, Lena!” Connor scolded.


    Ellen didn’t tell them that she was pregnant, and it was indeed inappropriate for Olivia to try pulling her.


    “I’ll take my leave now, Uncle Connor.” With that, Ellen turned around and walked toward the car.


    After she was gone, Olivia’s face fell. “It’s just as I expected. Since she’s wealthy now, she no longer


    regards us as rtives.” On the other hand, Selena’s gaze was full of determination, Ellen’s noble


    demeanor had agitated her. At that moment, she decided to get the man she had bumped into the


    other night at all costs. A joyful Connor said, “Ellie looks so elegant and noble now.”


    “So what? She looks down on rtives like us now.” Olivia snorted. The wedding would be held the


    next day, so the entire ind was filled with a blissful atmosphere. Wedding decorations could be seen


    everywhere, and all the guests felt at home.


    Meanwhile, a frustrated Josephine was drinking coffee. Seeing that she was still vexed, Luke appeased


    her by saying, “Joey, why don’t I teach that man a lesson for bullying you? Perhaps you’ll feel better


    that way.”


    Josephine shook her head. “I offended him first.” Luke was attracted to Josephine as she spaced out.


    The woman had a conflicting temperament; she looked obedient while spacing out, but aggressive and


    full of energy when she worked.


    What was more, whenever she blew her top or argued with other people, she was mean and willful, but


    she also appeared confident at the same time.


    More often than not, Luke felt that he could never have any control over the woman, and that was what


    made her attractive. He had the urge to conquer her and make her his.


    Furthermore, even though her grandfather was retired, he was still influeritial. “I have to work now.”


    With that, Josephine rose. from the chair and left.


    Luke ran after her and said, “Do you want to go to the beach, Joey? The water is clear. Why don’t we


    take a stroll?” “There’s no need for that. I’m swamped with work.” Josephine came up with an excuse


    and headed to the pedestrian walkway.


    As soon as she rounded a corner, she saw a fancy convertible charging toward her. She was so


    shocked that she stood rooted to the spot. Her face paled in an instant, and her soul almost left her


    body. Damn it! Who would drive a car on the pedestrian walkway?!


    “Joey!” Luke rushed over and pulled her back. The man in the convertible immediately stepped on the


    brake pedal, after which their eyes met.


    “It’s you!” When Josephine came to her senses, she was infuriated. So what if he has a convertible?


    He’s not supposed to be driving on the pedestrian walkway!


    “You again!” Ethan took off his sunsses and revealed his chiseled face before looking at her


    mockingly. “Do you even have a driver’s license? If you had crashed into my girlfriend, I would’ve never


    let you off!” Luke promptly defended the woman.


    “Huh? Has she even agreed to be your girlfriend yet?” Ethan arched his brow.
