?Chapter 735:


    In its delicacy, it conveyed a kind of quiet strength.


    The Rolls-Royce pulled up under the emergency department sign.


    Bruce, noticing the stillness of the two in the back, discreetly left the car.


    Ellie then turned to Kaiden and embraced him.


    “Do you think I’m concerned about Jorge?” He let out a vagueugh.


    “Not at all,” Ellie replied with a tone of understanding. “Kaiden, I get it. It’s not about being sad or worried, it’s about taking a moment to reflect.” After all, Jorge was once part of the family Kaiden had hoped for.


    Just like Cecelia was to her.


    Ellie knew the feeling all too well.


    It was like something brewing in a hidden corner, not visible every day but still sickening.


    Kaiden softly kissed Ellie’s hair, a move that was both soothing and seemed to seek sce.


    He got her reassurance and eptance, grateful for her knack in making excuses for him.


    “Kaiden, dad’s been in there for over five hours,” Talon said, worried, as he saw Kaiden and Ellie approach.


    Kaiden gave the operating room door a cool look and then sat on a bench nearby, pulling out his phone.


    Ellie watched him, curious, only to see him start answering work emails, admiring his ability to stayposed.


    Considering he had spent the day with her, he really hadn’t had a chance to work.


    Ellie, feeling neutral about Jorge and noticing Kaiden’s calm, chose to distract herself with her phone too.

    Erick, no longer able to hide his concern, balled his hands into fists, feeling defeated.


    Ellie didn’t even nce his way!


    Genesis, noticing Erick’s distress, took him aside to a fire escape.


    “Are you still hung up on Ellie? Has she cast a spell on you?” Genesis chided him softly.


    “Ellie was supposed to be with me!” Erick’s bitterness grew as he med their breakup for his string of bad luck. “Without our breakup, I wouldn’t have been cklisted by Rich Bar, made fun of because of Demi, caught up in Susanna’s mess, turned the Lambert family against me, which led Grandpa to think I’m not good enough and even consider making Kaiden the head of the family! Hmmph!”


    “You’re being too loud. Do you want Kaiden to find out that your Grandpa’s critical condition had something to do with us?” Genesis quickly covered Erick’s mouth, silently fuming at Ellie, calling her a “temptress.”


    Elsewhere, the so-called “temptress,” Ellie, was checking her social media. Ever since she returned to teaching, she had connected with many juniors on WhatsApp.


    Most of the posts she scrolled through were about the night’s top ten singerspetition, with quite a few mentioning her.
