quickly comforted me, saying, “Ari, don’t be sad. Blood ties are a strong and strange thing. All you need to do is divorce Elijah, take back your money, and apologize to your family. They’ll definitely forgive
you.”
A flicker of hope rose within me. “Is that really possible?”
“Of course! You’re still the daughter of the York family. Your parents are getting older, and your brother only has you. They were probably just disappointed before. Once you repent, they’ll definitely forgive you.”
Teresa’s words gave me some confidence.
She was right. My parents and brother had always loved and doted on me ever since I was a child. Th couldn’t really abandon me.
As long as I severed ties with Elijah, they’d definitely forgive me. And even if they wouldn’t forgive me, at least they wouldn’t cut me off completely.
Family relationships could be mended over time, but this marriage with Elijah had to end immediately.
I chatted with Teresa for a while more until the butler, Robert, approached me.
“Ms, York, the driver’s waiting at the gate,” he politely said.
“What for?” I asked.
Robert smiled and said, “Mr. Wood sent someone to take you to look at houses. There are three options today. Choose the one you like best.”
I was taken aback. “So soon?”
“Yes, Ms. York. The driver is already at the gate.”
So, I hurriedly left the garden.
Sure enough, a Maybach was parked outside.
I was still surprised when I entered the car
The driver said, “Ms. York, Mr. Wood is still at the office. He asked me to take you to the beach house first. If you don’t like it, we’ll head back to check out the one in the city center.”
“What about the third option?” I asked curiously
The driver chuckled and said, “The third one is on the top floor of Wood Group’s building. Mr. Wood thinks that it’s not clean, so it’s only for reference.”
I pondered for a moment and nodded. “Alright. Thank you for taking me around.”
He smiled, “It’s my job, Ms. York. You’re too kind.”
With that, he slowly drove out of the Wood residence.
However, what I didn’t know was that Norman saw the car leaving from the tennis court not too far away from the mountainside. He was dressed in a sports shift and sports shorts.
He whistled, smirking as he grabbed the tennis net.
Meanwhile, Ruby was talking to a few young women. They were all dressed in tennis outfits, looking fresh and youthful
Ruby walked over and followed Norman’s gaze.
She huffed. “Why is Logan only going to the office now? Is that shameless bitch holding him up?” Norman smiled half–heartedly as he watched the familiar car drive down the mountain.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
He squinted his eyes and said, “Logan left for work early this morning. That car is taking his precious partner to look at houses.”
Ruby lost her composure and yelled, “What? What do you mean?”
Norman rubbed his ears and replied, “Ruby, you’re going to make me deaf.”
Ruby quickly lowered her voice and said, “What is Logan thinking? Has he really fallen for her?”
As she spoke, her face contorted in anger. “I knew she wasn’t that simple. What a manipulative bitch!” she added.
Norman’s expression grew more intrigued. “To make someone as cold as Logan fall into a romantic trap… Well, well, Ms. York, you sure are something else.”
Ruby’s eyes flashed with jealousy. “Norman, you can’t just stand by and watch this happen. You need to get rid of this shameless bitch quickly. What if she becomes our sister–in–law?”
“Huh? Sister–in–law?”
