Chapter 91: Chapter 90

I gently patted Luna’s head, "Cut the crap, Luna. I’ve told you before that I’m not into your brother."

Luna rubbed her head, arguing back in a huff. "How can you be so sure you don’t like him? Trust me, my brother is a catch. If you guys get together and he dares treat you badly or looks at another girl, I swear I’ll beat him up myself!"

Nicholas was indeed a catch, be it his family background, looks, or character, he’s top–notch.

If only love could be forced, I’d give it a shot with him.

But I simply can’t, and I don’t dare to try if we were to give it a shot and then find out we’re not a match, we’d have to break up, and that could affect my relationship with Luna

After all, that was her brother. Unless I’m 100% certain, I don’t want to give it a try

"Luna, stop meddling in my affairs. I’ve been married before, but you still don’t have a boyfriend. You should focus more on your own future," I swiftly changed the subject. What type of guy do you like? How about a stable civil servant? I can ask my dad to keep an eye out for you"

As soon as we started talking about her future, Luna seemed a bit down. Her eyes started to dari around, "Forget it. I just want to live freely, Marriage would only tie me down."

Suddenly, her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID, looking a bit guilty. She scurried off to answer the call and then came back to tell me, I’ve got plans for drinks. Gotta run!"

"Don’t drink too much," I warned helplessly.

"I know!" Luna grabbed her bag and left.

After she left, I went upstairs to continue packing. Before my court appearance, I wanted to move out of Starlight Estates to show my determination.

I had so many clothes and accessories that they filled five suitcases. I also packed my cello and some sheet music.

While sorting through the sheet music, I opened an old wooden box Inside was a song I had composed myself, filled with hidden feelings for Damon. I once eagerly wanted to play it for him, but he refused.

The box also held a transparent glass bottle filled with colorful paper stars that I had stayed up late to fold for Damon. On each paper, I had written Damon’s name.

At the bottom of the box was a preserved necklace, the only thing Damon ever gave me. We weren’t married then, and my parents had invited him to my birthday party. He didn’t prepare any gifts. He just picked and gave it to me.

It was a gift without sincerity, but I had treasured it all these years.

I closed the box and put it back, then continued packing. Among the items I found were an unfinished scarf, a half–drawn necklace design, and a faded crystal earrings..

My naive crush and my deep feelings now were the same. Those innocent emotions showed that I once tried hard to pursue him.

Sighing, I put these items back where I found them, not intending to take them with me.

After slowly sorting everything out, the next morning, I had the maid help me move the suitcases to the car and drove to another property under my name. It was a single apartment that I had bought before marriage. I lived there for a while during college but hadn’t stayed there for a long time.

All the furniture and appliances in the apartment were covered with dust cloths, but the place still smelled dusty. I didn’t clean it myself. Instead, I hired a cleaning company to do it.

When the cleaning crew arrived, I asked them to clean the apartment as quickly as possible. There were six workers in total, so the work was done quickly

Three hours later, the apartment was sparkling clean, and I started to organize my clothes in the bedroom.

Just as I finished, my phone rang. It was Damon.

Did he already know that I filed for a divorce?

I answered the phone, puzzled, and heard Damon’s cold voice, "Eliana, what kind of game are you playing?"

"What are you talking about? Did you receive the notice? I was impressed with the court’s efficiency.

"Stop playing dumb " I could hear the anger in Damon’s voice, "If anything happens to Ariel, you won’t get off easy!"

What happened to Ariel? Wasn’t this supposed to be good news? | filed for divorce, so she could openly be with Damon now.

Damon had already hung up, and I was still confused. Thankfully, Luna called and excitedly explained, "Wow, big news, Eliana! Your mother–in–law found Ariel and met with her!!"

I was shocked. What was going on?

Luna told me, "Apparently, your mother–in–law found Ariel through an earring. After they met, Ariel left crying. Now Damon can’t find her and doesn’t dare to directly go to her fearing that her parents would find out and make her even more upset."

So Damon didn’t meet with Dean that day?

I remembered the bracelet my mother–in–law had found in Damon’s car on her birthday.

Just because of a bracelet, she had found Ariel

Was this the formidable style of a wealthy family? I thought it was great. Since Damon and Ariel were truly in love, why not expose the obstacles early on? In my past life, they entangled me for a year before telling me the truth. In this life, only a few months had passed, and they had openly declared their love, saving a lot of time

"I see, but Luna, how did you know all this?" i was still in the mood to ask this question.

"i heard it from someone".. Anyway, be careful. Nell is a tough one. He might take revenge on you, I suggest you seek protection from your mother–in–law soon!" Luna warned me a few times before hanging up.

I pondered for a while, didn’t immediately call my mother–in–law to ask about this, and just turned off my phone to rest.

The apartment was clean, but it lacked some necessities and food. So, I drove to the supermarket and bought a lot of essentials.

After preparing a simple meal, I ate while turning on my computer. There were several missed calls two from Damon, two from Jones, and one from my father.

I first called back my dad, who I thought was clueless about Damon and Ariel’s thing. But to my surprise, he was so furious on the other end of the line, his voice almost breaking. That scumbag Damon! I thought he had turned over a new leaf, but no, he’s gone and hooked up with some college girl, and this time he’s serious about it. Eliana, did you have absolutely no idea about this? How could you let him get away with this?!"

"Dad"I lost my appetite, and as I was feeling anxious I said, "I actually knew about it and was already preparing for a divorce with Damon, so I didn’t bother with him. You and Mom don’t need to worry."

"What the hell does he take you for? After all these years you’ve been married to him, what have you gotten out of it? Your mom and I can’t accept this. I’m going to give him a piece of my mind!" My dad was so mad he was about to blow a gasket
