Chapter 1774


    Chapter 1774 Ellinor took a sip of her coffee. “Would you care to exin why you know my past,


    ma’am?” “Well, actually, I wanted to introduce someone to you.” Ellinor raised an eyebrow curiously.


    “Who?” Bertha turned her head, intending to call over Marlinie from the other side to have an open-


    hearted chat, but to her surprise, the seat was empty. Bertha fell silent. Where on earth was she? Lea


    also seemed puzzled. “Mom, where’s Ms. Marlinie?” Bertha looked around, but there was no sign of


    her friend. Ellinor felt like they were acting quite peculiar. After clearing her throat, she put down her


    coffee. “Ma’am, who exactly are you trying to introduce me to?” Regaining her senses, Bertha looked


    embarrassed. “Um…the person I wanted to introduce to you is someone from your past, but it seems


    she couldn’t make it today. Ellinor, let’s reschedule this. I’ll bring her to meet you next time.” Someone


    from her past? Ellinor’s forehead slightly creased, wondering why this mother-daughter duo would


    randomly introduce her to someone. They were indeed a bit strange. After a moment of silence, Ellinor


    asked again, “Aside from this, is there anything else you wanted to discuss with me, ma’am?” Bertha


    sighed as her eyes filled with concern. “Ellinor, what are your ns for the future?” Ellinor inquired.


    “What kind of ns are you referring to, ma’am?”“About you and Marcus. Are you nning to take


    Marcus away from Sophia?” Ellinor’s wary gaze did not falter. Upon hearing her question, her


    eyebrows furrowed even more. “Ma’am, if you’ve invited me here to fish for information for your


    husband and stepdaughter, don’t bother. I’m not naive enough to disclose my ns to the enemy.”

    Bertha looked shocked and couldn’t find the words to respond. “I didn’t…” She was truly concerned


    about Ellinor’s situation. Firstly, because Ellinor once saved her life, and secondly, because Ellinor was


    the long-lost daughter of her best friend. Knowing Thaddeus’ temper, Bertha feared that, in order to


    protect Sophia, he might harm Ellinor. Lea defended her mother. “Ellinor, you’ve misunderstood! My


    mom’s not trying to trick you. We’re not on Sophia’s side. We both think Sophia is in the wrong. Right


    now, my mom is even considering a divorce from my dad. We’re not on his side either.” Ellinor looked


    at Lea, who seemed sincere and determined. Adults may lie for their own purposes, but children were


    often not as good at hiding their lies. Ellinor focused on Bertha. “Ma’am, are you considering a divorceCopyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.


    from Thaddeus?” Bertha nodded as a dull look crossed her eyes. “Yes, we are currently separated.”


    Ellinor was genuinely curious. “Why? I heard you two were quite happy together.” Bertha stared at the


    table, looking somewhat disheartened and helpless. “We were on good terms, but I can’t stand to be


    complicit in his wrongdoings anymore. He’s been unconditionally indulging Sophia’s misbehavior. I


    can’t stop it, and I can’t stand to watch it anymore.”
