    Chapter 300 Let Go!


    Eliza turned to look <b>at </b><b>Nn </b>because of what ine had said.

    She had never once heard Nn mention that the Hayes family had any sort of responsibility toward the Lynn family.


    “That’s the Hayes family’s responsibility to you. You can marry anyone from the Hayes family you want.”


    Nn’s words instantly drained all hope from ine’s eyes. “Nn! If <b>you </b>do this to me, I’ll kill myself!”


    ine had already attempted suicide once by slitting her wrists; the doctor had warned that she couldn’t endure any intense emotional fluctuations in the short term.


    The bodyguards nearby panicked.


    The Lynn family had been destroyed by the Hayes family. Back then, Nn’s grandpa had agreed to the marriage alliance out of guilt, <b>also </b>to devour what was left of the Lynn family’s fortune.


    But if ine were to die now, not <b>a </b>single cent of the Lynn family’s wealth would fall into the hands of the Hayes family


    If the others at Hayes Corp found out, especially those who already resented Nn, their dissatisfaction would only grow.


    Tyson had always been circling like a vulture. Wouldn’t this just be handing him a weapon on a silver tter?


    One of the bodyguards wanted to say something to Nn. Even if we could just stabilize her for now?


    Nn said coldly, “Sorry, I can’t marry you. I’ve already canceled your card. From now on, there’s nothing between <b>us</b>.”


    “I don’t ept this! Nn, don’t even dream of getting rid of me for the rest of your life!”


    ine tried to lunge forward and grab him, but the bodyguard beside her had already stepped in to block


    her..


    Nn reached out to take Eliza’s hand<b>. </b>“Let’s go.”


    Eliza walked forward with Nn for just <b>a </b>couple of steps before stopping. Her voice was cold. “Let go.”


    Nn froze at her words.


    Eliza said nothing.


    Nn didn’t speak either<b>. </b>


    After a while, Eliza <b>fmally </b><b>said</b>, “You’re not in school anymore, so there’s no need to waste your time.”


    Nn opened his mouth, but in the end, said nothing.


    He simply replied, “Alright.”


    “Whatever happens between you <b>two</b>, ligure it out yourselves. I don’t <b>want </b>to be involved.”


    “Okay”

    “I’m done talking.”


    Without looking back, Eliza walked away.

    A bodyguard followed behind and asked, “Mr. Hayes… aren’t you going after her?”


    Nn didn’t answer. The bodyguard beside him had no idea what to say either.


    “Let’s go.


    Nn threw out the words simply, then turned toward the exit of the nearby <b>mall</b>.


    Eliza returned home to find Halbert had been waiting for quite some time.


    “You’ve been out the whole day. Don’t tell me you were off messing around with that Nn kid again<b>?</b><b>” </b>


    Halbert <b>hadn’t </b>sent anyone to follow her, but one <b>look </b>at Eliza’s expression and he knew–this <b>was </b>definitely about Nn.


    Eliza had always been carefree and indifferent. She never truly cared about anyone.


    Except when it came to Nn; only then did she show this kind of disappointment.


    “So what if it’s about <b>him</b>? Why do you have so many questions?


    Eliza didn’t <b>have </b>the energy to joke around with Halbert.


    Halbert could see she was in a bad mood.


    “If this is about Nn, then there’s no need. There’s never going to be anything between the two of <b>you</b>.”


    He spoke unhurriedly. “But I do have some news you might <b>find </b>more interesting.”


    “What news<b>?</b>”


    Eliza didn’t believe for a second that Halbert would bring her anything good.


    Halbert <b>said</b>, “That boss of Missy’s…”


    He paused deliberately while he spoke, clearly observing Eliza’s expression.


    Seeing her face remain unchanged, he continued, “Missy’s trending. Want to take a look?”


    “How is that supposed to be good news?”


    Eliza pulled out her phone. Halbert added, “I <b>heard </b>you used to care quite <b>a </b>bit about Missy: Normally, <b>you </b><b>don’t </b>wear makeup, but there’s a ton of Missy’s new products at home now. Plus, you were getting pretty close with Missy’s brand ambassador recently, I figured you’d be curious about what I had to say.”


    Eliza had always <b>known </b>Halbert was observant, but she hadn’t realized he was this detail–oriented.


    Though she had brought Missy’s makeup home, she’d just tossed them casually on the vanity. No one would’ve noticed it was Missy’s stuff without a <b>close </b><b>look </b>


    “Oh, I just bought them randomly for <b>fun</b><b>.</b><b>” </b>

    She changed the subject. “<b>Halbert</b>, do you know anything about what happened between the Hayes family and the <b>Lynn </b>family?”


    “What are you asking that for?”


    Halbert replied slowly, “Don’t tell me you want to get involved in Nn <b>and </b>ine’s mess?”


    “I just heard some rumors and got curious. If you don’t want to tell me, then forget it.”


    Eliza turned to head toward her room.


    But Halbert spoke up <b>from </b>behind her. “Back then, the Hayes familypletely ruined the Lynn family. But


    to protect their reputation, they adopted her. Said it was out of charity, but really, they just wanted to take the rest of the Lynn family’s assets. After all, if ine had died back then, none of that money would’ve ended up in the Hayes family’s <b>hands</b>.”
