Chapter 138 Jefferson's Relationship With Mia
Back in the car, Asher kicked the car hard and pounded everything he saw.
He was furious and out of control.
Kenley didn't dare to comfort him and remained silent until she had driven for a while.
she still had Asher's promise in mind and said hopefully, "Asher, you mentioned earlier that you'd talk to Auntie about us..."
Asher's wrath still blazed up. All he was thinking about was how to teach Elianna a lesson. So he casually replied, "It's not the right time yet."
Kenley was indignant but had to put on a caring and understanding expression. "I see, Asher. As long as I can be with you, I don't care about anything else."
Asher was uninterested in her love confession and responded with a simple word "Hmm".
Due to his perfunctory response, Kenley's resentment towards Elianna grew stronger. If it weren't for Elianna, she might have succeeded in marrying Asher.
Fortunately, she had that painting. At Brice's birthday banquet, she'd make sure to drive Elianna out of the Larsen family!
......
Elianna was unaware of Kenley's plot. She was showing her appreciation to Nola.
"Nola, thank you for bringing the nightgown to me. I really appreciate it."
What Elianna mentioned was the nightgown she was wearing. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
To make it more believable, she contacted Nola on the way and got away with it.
Nola smiled gently and said, "You're my sister and deserve everything I do for you."
Elianna felt warmth in her heart, realizing for the first time that she was a little lucky as the daughter of the Gentry family.
Speaking of this, Nola expressed some concern. "But you didn't come home tonight. Where did you go?"
"I..."
Elianna hesitated, unsure of how to fabricate a story, but Nola interrupted with a smile, "
"Since you're embarrassed, forget it."
"But be careful, don't let our mother know."
Elianna nodded. "Thank you, Nola."
......
That night, Elianna stayed at the Gentry's mansion and slept hastily for a few hours. She was afraid that Erica would ask her about what had happened last night. Therefore, she left at dawn.
She caught up on sleep at home until noon and woke up with a stuffy nose, probably from catching a cold while waiting for the car yesterday.
Thinking of what had happened last night, Elianna hesitated and then found Jefferson's number.
Should she thank him?
But at the thought of sneaking away from him, she felt frightened.
She didn't dare to call him, so she sent a text message instead.
[Elianna: Mr. Larsen, thank you for arranging the car for me and not holding a grudge towards me.]
After an hour, she got a reply from Jefferson.
Elianna was on her way to the Gentry family because she received a notice from Erica.
[Jefferson: That's OK. But I'll settle the account with you later.]
Elianna's heart sank. As expected, there was no chance of fooling him.
When Elianna arrived, Erica was having lunch with Nola.
Seeing Elianna, Erica put down her fork and wiped her mouth with a napkin handed to her by a maid. Then she greeted indifferently, "You're here."
Elianna lowered her head and asked respectfully, "Mom, you suddenly called me over. Is there something you need?"
"Roger was critically ill and hospitalized last night. He just stabilized this morning. Do you know about this?"
Elianna's heart skipped a beat and she instinctively looked at Nola.
Nola silently shook her head, indicating that she hadn't said anything.
Feeling slightly relieved, Elianna replied respectfully, "I'm sorry, Mom. When I left, Mr. Roberts was still fine. I don't know what happened to him. Is he out of danger now?"
Erica stared at Elianna as if trying to see if she was lying.
Elianna quietly clenched her hands, allowing Erica to scrutinize her.
After a while, Erica withdrew her gaze. "Mind your own business. You can leave."
"Yes."
Just as Elianna took a few steps back, Erica stopped her.
"Go to Palatial Residence and fetch something for me."
Elianna raised her head and held back her excitement.
"Yes!"
Coming out of the Gentry's mansion, she almost ran into the car.
She was worried about her brother's health and had many questions on her mind.
Most importantly, she wanted to know if there was really something between Mia and Jefferson, or if Brett was lying.
