The Reborn Wife Of The Tyrant CEO
Chapter 240 - 236

Chapter 240: Chapter 236

After sending the message a half-peeled egg was placed in front of me. Damon retracted his hand, saying. "Eat up"

"I can peel it myself "I realized I was quite stubborn. No matter what Damon did, I felt like giving him a piece of my mind

Damon raised an eyebrow, "Then peel it yourself and walk out when you’re done"

He was just taking advantage of my temporary immobility, threatening me every now and then

I couldn’t walk out myself, and James couldn’t come in to fetch me. In the end, I still had to rely on Damon

Suppressing my growing anger, I grabbed the egg and finished it in one bite. The next second, Damon pushed a sandwich towards me, "Keep eating"

"Cough, cough..."I choked on the egg and started coughing, trying to feel better.

Under Damon’s urging, I ate quite a bit, even finishing with a cup of hot milk. I was starting to feel stuffed

The servant who had spoken highly of Damon last night was looking at me with a smile, her eyes filled with teasing.

"Alright, hurry and take me out "I intentionally ignored the servant’s gaze, urging Damon.

Damon stood up, seemingly unfazed by the games of others. He picked me up and started heading outside.

It had rained all night, and the ground was wet.

Cold air crept into my collar, making me shiver.

Damon navigated through the puddles, carrying me to his car.

As the car arrived outside Starlight Estates, I caught sight of my own car James was standing outside, waiting for me

Damon’s car slowed down, and James immediately came over to open the door for me. "Ms Brooks, what happened? Why did you suddenly want a wheelchair?"

"I twisted my ankle, having some trouble moving" I reached out my hand. "Can you help me out of the car?"

James nodded and wanted to help me, but Damon pulled him back, "I can help her"

Before James could react, Damon had already lifted me out and transferred me to my own car

James followed us silently. Once I was settled, he didn’t say anything to Damon. He just got in the car and drove off.

"James, you’ve had a hard time recently "I sighed with my eyes closed.

It indeed had been busy recently, with James chauffeuring me around frequently, but he never complained

"Ms. Brooks, its what I should do." James replied, "But why were you with him?"

I opened my eyes, remembering what Damon had said about seeing my father I sighed, "It’s a long story"

James didn’t probe further. I knew no matter what I did, he would always stand by me

The night at Starlight Estates felt like a dream. I cleared my thoughts and plunged back into work. Amid the busyness, my sprained ankle gradually healed.

When Luna chatted with me, she gossiped a lot about Zoe, all related to her and Damon.

"Eliana, she’s no ordinary person. I looked up her identity and was shocked" Luna exclaimed on the phone.

"What happened?" asked while eating

"Didn’t your company work with an enterprise in the District? She’s the daughter of the president of that company. Her name is Marie Wilson" Luna revealed

I was truly stunned. I remembered running into Zoe at the District and how the Enterprises decided to sign a contract with me at a critical moment. Were they all not coincidences?

Or did Zoe help me?

"However, her mother died giving birth to her. The current wife of the president of the company is her stepmother." Luna spilled everything she knew.

I felt a wave of confusion upon hearing this.

After hanging up, I lost my appetite. I opened WhatsApp and messaged Zoe: Can we meet?

Zoe replied quickly, "Sure, come over here!"

She sent me an address, and I rushed over.

Zoe was a food enthusiast, and she was trying out a new Western restaurant. On seeing me, she waved excitedly. "Eliana, over here!"

Her hair was dyed purple again, looking wild and free. Her round face was adorned with noticeable piercings on her nose and lips

I sat down, and Zoe enthusiastically recommended the restaurant’s signature dishes. After listening for a while, I interrupted her, "Are you the youngest daughter of the president of the company that gave me the contact?"

"Huh?" Zoe froze, then quickly burst into a radiant smile, "How did you know?"

I smiled, "A friend recognized you and told me."

Zoe readily admitted her identity and chatted with me. She was a girl who didn’t lack money but lacked love. She hated her stepmother, so she started roaming around after graduation. Her dad didn’t know what to do with her.

As for the contract with the company , Zoe admitted that she had asked her dad for help.

"I don’t like Ariel; she’s a vixen!" Zoe didn’t mince her words, "Eliana, even though you’re Damon’s ex- wife and Ariel is his ex-girlfriend, I hate her, not you. If I were Damon, I would never forget you either."

Zoe’s words shocked me. She didn’t get angry or jealous when Damon left with me on her birthday?

Her candid expressions of feelings made me envious

I had prepared a bunch of rebuttals in case Zoe wanted to pick a fight, but her words made me feel petty.

Just when I didn’t know how to respond, a voice sounded next to us, "Eliana, having a meal with a friend?"

Just our luck, we were talking about Ariel, and there she was, with Karen and Nicole in tow.

"Isn’t she one of Damon’s admirers?" Nicole suddenly pointed at Zoe, "I saw her when Damon was in the hospital. Do you remember, Ariel?"

Ariel looked at Zoe, her brow furrowed.

Zoe cast a dismissive glance at the group and continued to eat, treating Nicole’s words as hot air.

Whether out of jealousy or dissatisfaction, Ariel’s personality was becoming more and more volatile. She was unable to hide her emotions.

She gave a contemptuous smile, "Damon has plenty of admirers. What’s she to him? He wouldn’t like a woman who reeks of cheapness"

"As far as I know, before you deliberately sucked up to Damon to get rich, you were also just an ordinary cheap woman, weren’t you?" Zoe wasn’t about to let Ariel off the hook. She forked a piece of steak, took a slow bite, and asked, "What’s the matter? Forgotten where you came from so quickly?"

I laughed out loud. She hit the nail on the head, and I love her spirit.

Ariel’s face was cold and sharp. "What are you laughing at? She’s your rival too."

"Sorry, she and I are not rivals. I was the one who gave her Damon’s contact" I replied with a grin.
