- Chapter 481
- +5 She bought two pregnancy tests, some household essentials, and two packs of sanitary pads. She took the tests out of her bag, carefully hiding them in her pocket, and absentmindedly walked back to her car.
- Just as she took out her car keys and at the hospital.
- about to cross the street, she spotted the strange man who had been following her
- Across the road, the stranger saw her and quickly started walking towards her. Ellie felt a shiver run down her spine and turned to walk quickly in the opposite direction. Soon, she was running. In a panic, she dashed into an upscale restaurant.
- She glanced back to see if the stranger was following and accidentally bumped into someone. Feeling a hand supporting her waist, Ellie instinctively pushed the person away and stepped back.
- Her shopping bag fell to the floor, and its contents scattered everywhere.
- “I’m sorry,” Ellie apologized, only to realize she had bumped into Alex. Quickly crouching to pick up her belongings, she ignored him.
- Alex, dressed in a sleek black business suit and surrounded by a group of people, stood there with his hand, which had just supported Ellie’s waist, slowly lowering. Seeing her obvious panic, Alex calmly knelt and picked up a pack of sanitary pads that had fallen by his feet.
- Alex’s eyes locked onto the pack of sanitary pads in his hand, his gaze flickering with unease, feeling a suffocating tightness in his chest. In Yorksure, the drug he tricked Ellie into taking had completely failed.
- All his scheming was for nothing; he caused Ellie so much pain that she fainted, yet she didn’t end up pregnant. There’s nothing left tying them together now.
- Suddenly, his hand was empty as Ellie snatched the pads away. By the time Alex snapped out of it, Ellie was already gone. He stood up numbly, watching her hurried, disheveled steps as she rushed into the restaurant. Suppressing the dull ache in his chest, Alex quickly left the restaurant.
- Ellie looked genuinely terrified, as if someone was chasing her. Alex stood at the restaurant entrance, calmly scanning the surroundings.
- “Mr. Warren.” Barry noticed Alex acting out of character and hurried over.
- Alex ordered, “Spread out and check if there’s anyone suspicious around!”
- About ten minutes later, Barry reported, “Mr. Warren, no suspicious individuals, but Ms. Grant is up ahead.”
- Before Barry could finish, Alex was already on the move.
- Diana was just about to get into her car when “bang!” the door was slammed shut. “Alex, what the hell? Why’d you close my door?” Diana’s face darkened as she saw Alex.
- Alex said, “Ellie’s in the restaurant. It looks like someone’s been following her. Go check if she’s okay.”
- “In broad daylight? That creep’s got some nerve!” Diana locked her car door and was about to head to Ellie, but Alex raised a hand to stop her.
- Alex’s eyes narrowed sharply. “Say that again!”
- “Last night at the hospital, Ellie was definitely followed by some stranger, but he bolted as soon as I shouted,” Diana explained, noticing Alex’s murderous expression.
- Even though Alex was a jerk, Diana couldn’t deny that if Ellie ever got into trouble, aside from Aaron, Alex would be the first
- to throw down for Ellie.
- Chapter 481
- “Alex, you owe Ellie big time. Don’t you dare let anything happen to her,” Diana reminded him before turning to head into the restaurant to find Ellie.
- Alex stood still, staring at the restaurant entrance, and commanded Barry, “From now on, you and your team are on her
- Barry asked, “Mr. Warren, what about you?”
- Alex shot back, “I’m a grown man. What kind of psycho would dare mess with me?!”
- Barry nodded, agreeing with Alex. When it came to dealing with freaks, Alex had no equal.
- Chapter 482
- “Let’s sit in the most visible spot. If that creep dares to show up again, I’ll make sure he’ll never be a man again!” Diana pulled Ellie to a window booth on the first floor.
- “Diana, don’t you have that design industry dinner tonight? You should go so you don’t miss it. I’ve already sent Aaron my location; he’ll be here soon to pick me up.
- “This is a public place with surveillance, so it should be fine,” Ellie said, glancing nervously out the window, feeling utterly useless.
- Diana gave Ellie a supportive look. “It’s no big deal if I miss one dinner. I’ll stay here with you until Aaron comes to pick you up, then I’ll leave. Otherwise, I won’t feel at ease.”
- Ellie’s mind was a mess, so she didn’t argue. She instinctively reached into her pocket to check if the early pregnancy test was still there.
- Not far outside, Alex’s eyes were fixed on Ellie in the booth. Even through the floor–to–ceiling window, he could sense her unease. He quietly ordered her some favorite dishes and then slipped away in his car.
- A waiter said, “Ms. Grant, your friend specially ordered dinner for you and your friend.”
- After the waiter left, Ellie spoke up shyly. “Diana, your friend really went all out for us.”
- Diana looked at the two luxurious steak meals in front of them and sighed at the extravagance. She usually only ate her steak medium rare, and these medium–well dishes were clearly Ellie’s favorite.
- Picking up her knife and fork, Diana grumbled as she ate, “My friend’s heartless and tasteless. He’s got nothing but money, so dig in without guilt!”
- Ellie was momentarily speechless.
- Just then, Yvette walked in with a huge tote bag, accompanied by Quinlee. “Dr. Thompson, what a coincidence,” Yvette greeted Ellie warmly but ignored Diana.
- Diana, sitting in her seat, rolled her eyes at Yvette and Quinlee and kept eating her dinner.
- Ever since Diana’s fallout with Yvette, Quinlee had been fanning the flames, blaming Diana and pushing her to apologize. Diana wasn’t having it, not even if Winnie was around.
- Ellie gave Diana an awkward glance. Although she had already mentally distanced herself from them and didn’t want to be friends with people like that, she still politely replied, “What a coincidence.”
- Yvette glanced at Diana without a hint of emotion and raised her voice slightly as she spoke to Ellie. “I was wondering why Aaron told me to wait at this restaurant, and now I see you are here too.”
- Ellie couldn’t help but frown. Aaron had already made it clear with Yvette before. Even after Yvette reached out to him multiple times, crying a lot, he still didn’t change his mind. So how did they end up meeting again?
- “Yvette, since Ellie is here too, why don’t you just wait here?” Quinlee pointed to the spot next to Ellie, inviting Yvette to sit.
- Yvette awkwardly looked at Ellie and asked, “Ellie, can I sit here and wait for Aaron?”
- “No!” Diana rolled her eyes dramatically and pointed around. “There are empty seats everywhere, and you’re not sitting in them on purpose, right?!”
- Seeing Diana finally speak, Yvette carefully approached her. She met Diana’s obviously disdainful eyes and gave a slight smile, “Ms. Grant, I know there might be some misunderstandings between us. I’ll sit at another table, so please don’t get mad anymore.”
- Chapter 482
- Yvette spoke with distress, just about to leave, but Quinlee subtly stopped her. Quinlee spoke slowly, deliberately trying to annoy Diana. “Yvette, you’re really easygoing, no wonder Mr. Thompson is so fond of you.”
- Chapter 483
- Feeling embarrassed, Yvette replied, “Quinlee, don’t make things up. I’m not even close to Aaron’s type.”
- The duo’s act was irritating Diana. With a loud sound, Diana slammed her utensils down and stood up abruptly. She looked at them, pointing to the door, “You both, get out and take your drama outside!”
- Quinlee twitched her lips slightly and didn’t move.
- Ellie quickly came over and ushered Quinlee away, saying, “Ms. Griffith, maybe you two should wait for Aaron at another table.” They knew well that Diana liked Aaron, yet they were there chatting like this, clearly just trying to upset Diana.
- Yvette pretended to apologize sincerely, pushing Ellie aside once more to stand in front of Diana. While she smiled pleasantly, a brief shadow of malice crossed her eyes.
- She leaned closer to Diana, clutching an oversized handbag, and in a voice meant just for them, she said sharply, “I know you’re jealous of my dates with Aaron, but what can you do? Even if you are the most cherished daughter of the Grant family, you’re nothing in Aaron’s eyes.”
- Yvette’s voice grew softer, dripping with sarcasm. “Getting paid for sleeping with men? You didn’t just throw yourself at my boyfriend, but you were eager to offer it for free. Who would’ve thought Ms. Grant was so desperate?”
- In a fury, Diana slapped Yvette across the face.
- Yvette was knocked to the ground by Diana’s slap, leaving everyone around shocked.
- “Diana, don’t do anything reckless!” Ellie, seeing Diana stepping down from the seat, ready to approach Yvette again, hurriedly stepped in to stop Diana.
- But Diana, being proud and usually acting instead of talking when provoked, had her temper fully ignited by Yvette. Ellie couldn’t hold her back.
- “That lowlife who dared to mess with me last month is still stuck in the hospital!” Diana pushed Ellie aside and kicked away Yvette’s handbag.
- Quinlee, fearless, stepped forward to block Diana, saying, “Diana, you can’t just hit people like that. Even respecting Mr. Thompson’s presence, you mustn’t embarrass Yvette in front of everyone.”
- “Move away, or you’ll get slapped too!” Diana warned, pushing Quinlee to the side. She stepped on the large handbag with her high heels and yanked Yvette’s hair for another slap.
- Yvette felt dizzy from the hit, her mouth bleeding. But when she saw the person entering through the restaurant doors, a sly smile crept onto her lips.
- Ignoring her own embarrassment, Yvette rushed to protect the oversized handbag. “Ms. Grant, even if you’re this impulsive and don’t respect others, inside this bag are life–saving medicines that not even your money can buy!”
- “I don’t respect others?!” Diana bent down, snatched the handbag from Yvette’s hands, and tossed it aside.
- The packages of medicine flew out of the handbag, scattering all over the restaurant, covering Aaron from head to toe.
- “I’m sorry, Aaron, I didn’t keep the medicine safe, and Ms. Grant threw it away!” Yvette cried as she saw Aaron come in, accusing Diana.
- Then she added, “Ms. Grant, no matter how temperamental you are, you can slap me in public, but I told you, these are life- saving medicines for my friend, and you still tossed them away!”
- Diana sneered, “Birds of a feather flock together. Your friends are just as bad; they deserve what’s coming to them!”
- Chapter 483
- Yvette argued, “Do you even realize how hard I pleaded with Ryker to bring me back and forth between Jaslands and Jinerity for over two weeks just to get these medicines? They’re for Mrs. Thompson’s rheumatism treatment! How could you throw them away just to humiliate me?!”
- Quinlee exclaimed, “Diana, you’re supposed to be friends with Ellie and Mr. Thompson! How can you be so cruel and wish Mrs. Thompson dead?!”
- Chapter 484
- Before Quinlee could finish her sentence, Diana raised her hand and slapped her too.

- Quinlee held her stinging cheek in disbelief and said, “Diana, you’re way too arrogant! I’m just trying to help you. How could you lash out and hit someone?!”
- Even the onlookers couldn’t stand it, and they started criticizing Diana’s actions.
- Diana pointed arrogantly at Quinlee’s forehead and warned her, “Don’t think I’ll tolerate you just because you’re my sister- in–law’s sister. If you talk nonsense again, I’ll tear your mouth apart!”
- “Diana, I’m doing this for your own good. If you don’t appreciate it, then I won’t say anything else,” Quinlee said. Although she was wishing she could lash out at Diana, on the surface, she didn’t dare truly confront Diana and could only hold back and step away.
- Yvette blamed, “Ms. Grant, I know you’re an heiress from a wealthy family and everyone is afraid of you, but that doesn’t mean you can just hit people without a reason!”
- Yvette, with a scratched arm, stood in front of Aaron, her eyes red with frustration. “Aaron, you need to judge this. It’s bad enough she’s a prideful heiress who bullies others, but how can she have no basic sympathy?
- “I told her the medicine was for Mrs. Thompson, and she threw it away anyway!”
- “Diana!” Ellie noticed Diana angrily heading towards Yvette and quickly grabbed her arm. “Calm down and talk it out instead of acting on impulse,” she advised.
- Yvette and Quinlee were clearly trying to provoke Diana. With her strong personality, Diana always faced problems directly and never held back. Moreover, she was always proud and often didn’t care to explain herself. It was understandable that she might end up at a disadvantage because of this.
- Ellie could understand why Aaron kept reminding Diana not to be impulsive in difficult situations. But Ellie never expected that the bag Yvette always protected contained medicine for Joanna’s rheumatism treatment.
- “Move out of the way, Ellie!” Diana pushed Ellie aside as she walked towards Yvette, her high heels clicking on the ground.
- “Ms. Grant, are you really daring enough to hit me in front of Aaron?!” Yvette subtly moved closer to Aaron for safety.
- “What if I slap you right in front of him?!” Diana raised her hand, ready to hit, but Aaron caught her wrist in mid–air. Locking eyes with Aaron’s intense gaze, Diana gritted her teeth and snapped, “Aaron, let go!”
- Diana tried hard to pull her hand back, but Aaron held it even tighter. Without saying a word, and with everyone watching, he pulled Diana out of the restaurant.
- Yvette watched as Aaron pulled Diana away without a word and gave Quinlee an embarrassed glance.
- “Yvette, you should go check on them,” Quinlee cleverly suggested.
- “Ms. Griffith!” Ellie stepped in when Yvette tried to follow Aaron outside, blocking her way. “Thank you for helping with my mom’s medicine. Even though it spilled, we appreciate your thoughtfulness, Ms. Griffith.”
- “It’s fine. When Ryker isn’t busy anymore, I’ll have him take me to his friend’s place to get some more medicine for Mrs. Thompson, Yvette said, pushing past Ellie to chase after Aaron.
- Seeing Ellie not letting Yvette leave, Quinlee came over to help. “Ellie, Yvette is Aaron’s girlfriend after all. Why do you keep stopping her?”
- Ellie ignored her. The three women were tugging at each other, and Ellie spoke with a sarcastic tone. “Aaron is talking with Diana, and someone as polite as Ms. Griffith wouldn’t disturb them, right?”
- Chapter 484
- Ellie took Yvette by the hand and suggested, “Let me take you to the hospital to get your arm bandaged.”
- Yvette pushed Ellie away with a sour look. “It’s just a small injury, nothing to worry about. I’ll leave after I have a quick word
- with Aaron.”
- By the road outside the restaurant, Aaron let go of Diana. Under the streetlight, they looked at each other with only a step of space between them. Seeing Diana so angry, Aaron frowned, “You threw the medicine away, hit someone, and you’re still mad?”
- Diana exclaimed, “Aaron, shouldn’t you at least ask why I got mad and hit them?!”
- Chapter 485
- Aaron replied, “You haven’t explained, have you?!”
- Diana snapped, “If I explain, will you actually tell off your precious little angel?!”
- 40%
- Aaron said, “Diana, you’re an adult now. Even if she said something unpleasant and provoked you, that’s no excuse for hitting someone! There are many ways to handle these things. Why do you always choose the most extreme one? Do you ever consider the consequences before you act?!”
- “If someone ticks me off, I hit them! Why should I think about consequences?!” Diana fumed, turning her back to Aaron and taking deep breaths.
- “I didn’t provoke you, yet you still want to get back at me. You’re being so unreasonable. Have you ever thought about how others feel?!”
- Hearing Aaron’s questioning behind her, Diana turned around. Just as she was about to step forward, her heel got stuck in a manhole cover, twisting her ankle. Diana bent down and took off her shoe.
- She picked up her high heel, barefoot, and threw it at Aaron. “Oh, we all know you’re high and mighty. Stop preaching to me! I like you; that’s why I’m bothering you. Why else would I go to this trouble and not with someone else?*
- Furious, Diana threw the other high heel at Aaron. Their eyes met, and for a moment, Aaron was stunned as Diana’s shoe hit
- him.
- The first time at the mansion, Diana tested the waters by saying she wanted to pursue him, only to be turned down. This was the second time Diana admitted she liked him, after they had an irreversible relationship.
- He bent down to pick up Diana’s high heel, took a couple of steps forward, and placed it by her feet. His voice had completely changed as he said, “Put your shoes on first.”
- “I won’t!” Diana kicked it away.
- Aaron stood up helplessly, realizing that Diana was so upset that she was crying.
- He tried to keep his cool as he said, “You called me in the middle of the night, saying you were in danger at a hotel. When I got there, you drugged me.
- “You created an irreversible situation
- blackmail me!
- etween us, and instead of feeling guilty, you recorded videos and took photos to
- “Diana, you’re a girl. Even if you have no limits for yourself, can’t you think about others? Do you realize how despicable your methods are and how serious the consequences could be?!”
- Their eyes locked, and Diana wiped away her tears. She shoved Aaron in frustration. “I’m shameless and despicable, while you’re all noble and righteous. Why don’t you just report me then?!”
- Aaron frowned, “I’m not that noble, but the fact is you’re being unreasonable!”
- Diana said, “In the end, you just blame me for scheming against you and getting in the way of your romance with that bitch!*
- Aaron said, “Isn’t it true that you schemed against me?! Is it that hard for you to admit when you make a mistake?!
- “Diana, right now you’re sheltered by your parents and brothers. You can do whatever you want without worries, but someday your parents will age, and your brothers can’t always be there for you.
- “Once you’re away from the Grant family, out of your brothers‘ sight, your attitude will get you in trouble sooner or later!”
- Chapter 485
- “You’re not my dad, so don’t lecture me!” Diana shouted, tears streaming down her face. She hated it when people preached
- to her.
- She wanted a relationship like her brother Patrick and sister–in–law Winnie had. No matter what huge trouble. Winnie got into, Patrick always cared most about whether Winnie had been wronged or if her hand hurt from punching something.
- She wanted to be favored–unreasonably and absolutely. Her parents could give it to her, her seven brothers could give it to her, even her sister–in–law could give it to her, but the man she liked couldn’t.
- She couldn’t take it anymore! She looked directly into Aaron’s eyes, crying louder and messier than she ever had before. She told Aaron, word by word, “I’m leaving the country now. As long as you, Aaron, don’t get married and have kids, I, Diana, won’t come back home!”
