"Ellie, can I have a word with you?"
Nathan gently smiled and looked at Eleanor with a storm brewing in his eyes.
Eleanor slightly nodded, "Sure."
Seeing Sebastian's unhappy face, she said, "Mr. Moore, I'll be right back."
Sebastian said, "Three minutes."
He only gave her three minutes.
Eleanor looked at Nathan and asked, "Are three minutes enough?"
Nathan looked at Sebastian and angrily said word by word, "No. I have a lot to talk about."
Sebastian said, "Sorry, but my wife and I will socialize with my business partners later."
Nathan was speechless. He glared at Sebastian and lowered his voice when he said, "Sebastian, how could you say such words? Since you don't like her, you should not have told these people she is your wife!"
Sebastian looked askance at him and said, "Don't meddle in my family affair. It's none of your business."
Nathan snorted, looked at Eleanor, and said, "Ellie, let's go. We need to talk."
Eleanor was depressed to see them at war. They quarreled as soon as they met. So, it would be hard to make them bury the hatchet.
Seeing Eleanor follow Nathan away, Sebastian showed a sullen face. And the cold look in his eyes made people dare not get close to him.
Mr. Zachary was standing beside him, so he witnessed what happened.
Everyone familiar with these two big shots knew they were mortal enemies. So, they were surprised to see Nathan openly take Sebastian's wife away. Sebastian was always in the limelight, so many people were paying attention to him.
Mr. Zachary respectfully reminded him, saying, "Mr. Moore, this way, please. There are fewer people there."
"No. Mr. Zachary, let's talk later. I will wait for my wife here."
Sebastian's voice was husky but emotionless.
Mr. Zachary was relieved to hear this. After asking his assistant to pay attention to Sebastian, he greeted the other guests.
Seeing Eleanor walk away, Caroline secretly followed behind her.
Michael looked at Valentina and asked in a low voice. "My Uncle Sebastian is there. Do you want to say hello?"
Valentina looked pretty and elegant. She wore a light golden dress, exquisite makeup, and her long hair down. When she smiled, two dimples appeared on her cheeks.
She had long noticed Sebastian. She looked at Michael and smiled, "Sure. Let's go over to greet your uncle."
She had always wanted to know Sebastian, who was a legendary man. She had met him once at a party two years ago. But he had ignored her. Now, her identity had changed. So, she thought he would pay some attention to her.
When she walked over with Michael, they looked like a perfect match, making others envious.
Michael smiled, "Uncle Sebastian, this is Valentina."
Sebastian indifferently glanced at him without replying.
Valentina sweetly smiled and gently said, "Mr. Moore, I've long been looking forward to meeting you."
Sebastian didn't spare a look at Valentina. He lightly nodded and glanced at the time. Three minutes had passed. But Eleanor hadn't come back yet.
Valentina didn't get a response, so her smile froze. He still did not bother to spare a look at her.
Seeing Sebastian's sullen face, Michael took Valentina away without saying anything else.
Valentina was unwilling to give in. But she was smart and knew she must not mess with Sebastian now. Fortunately, she got helpful information today. Eleanor and Nathan turned out to know each other. They seemed to have a good relationship. Valentina decided to take advantage of it.
Hailey stood alone in the corner. She used to be flattered by people. But now, everyone ignored her. She had not found the person who had attacked her family. Although her father had been released, their company had become an empty shell. The founding members had secretly swallowed up the shares during his absence.
Hailey pinned her last hope on Sebastian sitting alone at the dining table. So, she fixed her clothes and slowly walked toward him.
...
The night view on the rooftop was beautiful.
Eleanor and Nathan stood side by side and looked at the night scene. When the evening breeze blew, her lengthy hair danced in the air. And the wind with fragrance was relaxed and comfortable.
Nathan looked sideways at her and angrily asked, "Ellie, why didn't you ask me to help you seek revenge?"
When Eleanor smiled, she looked stunningly beautiful under the neon lights. Hatred overflowed her eyes when she said, "Because I want to do it alone. When I first married Sebastian, I wanted to use him to seek revenge. But it's no longer necessary. I have prepared for six years, so I have enough power to make my enemies live in hell."
Nathan thought of their first meeting. When she had blocked his way with blood all over her, he had thought she was a ghost. Her face had been ruined. But she had used her last bit of strength to shout, "Please save me and my child."
He had sent her to the hospital because he did not want to feel guilty in the future.
But she had tenaciously survived and amazed him.
Nathan looked at her with a smile and said, "After Fragrant Condensed Pill is launched, you will see the results you want. Your enemies are my enemies."
He had made up his mind just now.
Seeing his sincere smile, Eleanor knew he was not joking. So, she genuinely said, "Thank you, Nathan. I would have died if I hadn't met you that night."
"Don't mention it anymore. Divorce Sebastian as soon as possible if you want to thank me. He is ruthless. You are no match for him."
Nathan had never defeated Sebastian but swore he would beat him and win Eleanor's heart this time.
"I've already made it clear to him. But things are complicated. I will handle it. Don't worry!"
Eleanor patted his shoulder and continued, "Nathan, you will do me a great favor if you successfully launch Fragrant Condensed Pill."
She didn't make a penny from the formula. He had saved her life, so she wanted to repay his kindness.
Nathan deeply stared at her and said, "You can count on me. They will get bogged down."
She was a genius in the medical field but had too much pain in her heart.
Eleanor turned around and said, "Let's go back."
Nathan slightly nodded, "Call me when you need help. Don't be afraid if Sebastian bullies you. I will protect you."
He was not kidding. With his ability, he was not afraid of Sebastian.
Eleanor gratefully smiled, " I know. Will you stay here for a long time?"
"Yes. I will stay for one year. We will often see each other in the future."
Nathan had been surprised by her medical skills and wondered how she had removed shocking wounds and restored her face to its original state.
He thought awhile and said, "Ellie, when will you tell me how you heal your face? Women all over the world will thank you."
Eleanor knew what he was referring to. She lowered her eyes and said with a faint smile on her red lips, "The cost is too high. Only rich people could afford it."
Nathan was amused by her words and said, "Isn't it easier to make money from the rich?"
"You're right. I will consider it."
Eleanor disagreed because she was unsure whether she would stay in Grona.
Nathan felt slightly disappointed and said, "I did not expect you to need to think about it." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Not far away, Caroline slowly walked out from behind a tree with a gloomy face.
