The Reborn Wife Of The Tyrant CEO -
Chapter 261 - 257
Chapter 261: Chapter 257
I started having breakfast at the dining table, as if I hadn’t heard a word the servant said.
I didn’t ask him why he gave Ariel more money in the first place. Every time I asked, the answer I got was always denial.
Now, I just treated Damon as a tool. Once the transaction was completed, there would be no debt between us.
Then Damon’s phone rang. He must have put it on silent mode last night, and it was just now responding. It must have been Ariel calling.
I guess she must have been furious when she saw Damon pick me up. So she waited outside Starlight Estates all night.
Last time at Lisa’s birthday, she saw me, but she didn’t know that I was going to stay here.
"Aren’t you going to check it out?" I asked casually while eating I was very tired because of last night, and now I was also starving
"When she’s tired of waiting, she’ll leave. Damon responded. I didn’t know if he was trying to express his attitude to me or just saying it casually, "I have nothing to say to her."
I looked down at the remaining food in my bowl, then pushed it away and started drinking a glass of milk. As for Damon’s response, I chose to ignore it.
After breakfast. Damon picked up his coat to accompany me out, but I refused, "You go to the office first, I want to rest a little longer. I’ll wait for James to take me to see my dad"
"I’ll take you." Damon was about to put down his coat again.
"No need, Damon. If we really plan to get back together, it will be very tiring to go on like this in the long term, let’s just take it easy" I said with a frown
Damon paused, and his eyes flickered slightly, as if he were thinking about what I said.
A few seconds later, he nodded. "Okay"
While watching Damon leave, my nervous heart finally relaxed. From last night until now, I have been feeling a little uneasy.
After sitting for a while, I went to find the car keys, took a car from the garage, and rushed to the prison where my father was now serving his sentence.
As soon as I got out of Starlight Estates, I was blocked by Ariel’s car. She hurriedly got out of the car, walked over, and began knocking on my window.
When I rolled down the window, I heard her yell, "Damon."
I guess she didn’t even notice that was the one driving
"Why are you here?" After seeing me, Ariel was stunned. Then a twisted jealousy appeared on her face, "Why are you here? Where is Damon?"
"He’s gone to the office". My smile was subtle, giving off a casual vibe, making Ariel even more frustrated.
Ariel’s voice was shaking a little, "That’s impossible! You’re not living here now, are you?"
I nodded, answering very casually, "Yes, Damon insists on me living here. After all, this is our matrimonial home, we’ve lived here for five years."
"That’s impossible" Ariel denied excitedly, "Eliana, you’re deliberately trying to piss me off, aren’t you?"
"What good does it do me if you’re upset? Didn’t you tell me that Damon loves you in his heart at the coffee shop last night? I really don’t understand why he brought me here to stay" I sighed lightly, "Maybe he’s just a playboy."
Ariel’s hand was tightly gripping the window sill, and her unwillingness to believe me was clear in her eyes.
"Where is Damon?" She asked again, seemingly determined to get an answer from Damon.
’"I don’t know. Maybe he knew you were waiting for him here, so he left from the other side." I closed the window after saying that, and Ariel had to withdraw her hand.
I drove off, and as to whether Ariel was still waiting at Starlight Estates, that was her choice.
With Damon arranging things, I was able to see my dad smoothly.
In just a month or two, he had aged a lot, and even his sideburns had more white hair. I couldn’t help but cry.
"Eliana, don’t cry How’s your mom? Did she wake up?" My dad smiled kindly
"Mom hasn’t woken up yet, but she is stable. Dad, don’t worry" I wiped away my tears and forced a smile.
"You haven’t suffered much since you were a kid, so you must be under a lot of pressure now, right?" My dad was worried about me from beginning to end, "If you can’t hold on, let go of the company. Your
mom and I left you some money; it’s enough for you to use. Your mom won’t blame you when she wakes up."
I couldn’t possibly do that. The company was my mom’s life’s work, and it was not the end of the road yet, I couldn’t possibly give up
Then we talked about the issue of those documents. My dad’s face was serious; he told me the ins and outs of everything he could.
Even he wasn’t sure if he had signed those documents because it all happened after drinking. The only thing he was sure of was that those people definitely got him drunk on purpose.
After I asked for the names and identities of those people, visiting time was almost over.
"Dad, take care of yourself, I will definitely get you out." Before leaving. I promised him solemnly
My dad nodded at me.
Then I went straight to the company, and as soon as I got to the office, the assistant brought me an invitation to Jones and Scarlett engagement.
I looked at the invitation, feeling mixed emotions.
It was interesting. I once received Damon and Ariel’s engagement invitation, and now I had received Jones and Scarlett’s.
Two men, who I had deep relationships with, were both moving on and getting engaged to other women.
Then I received a message on my phone; it was from Scarlett. "Ms. Brooks, if possible, please do not attend Jones’s and my engagement banquet. Thank you."
I was surprised. Was this invitation sent to me by Jones alone? He didn’t even discuss it with Scarlett?
Since the bride-to-be didn’t want me to spoil the mood, I naturally wouldn’t go
"Mr. Zack from Moonlight Enterprises is coming to the city today. Do you have any plans?" The assistant reminded me.
"See if he’s free; I’ll treat him to a meal." I put the invitation in the drawer and told the assistant.
The assistant immediately started contacting Mr. Zack’s assistant.
I had a feeling that if Mr. Zack accepted iny dinner invitation, his daughter Zoe would also show up.
Also, things would become complicated once Zoe found out that I was now living at Starlight Estates. I really didn’t know how to explain it to her.
After a while, my assistant came to tell me that Mr. Zack had agreed to have dinner together and that I got to pick when and where.
"Book a hotel for dinner; let’s have it tonight." I didn’t want to rush home, living under the same roof as Damon felt a bit off.
"Sure thing, Ms. Brooks" My assistant took the order and left.
After a day’s work, I freshened up a bit, then had James drive me to the hotel we booked.
Just as I suspected, I wasn’t only greeted by Mr. Zack of Moonlight Enterprises but also by Zoe.
