?Chapter 883:
He returned to the majestic vi where he typically resided. Standing in front of the French window, he looked out toward the neighboring apartmentplex.
A rattan chair upied the balcony of a particr suite.
Flossie was seated on the rattan chair, engrossed in her work, appearingpletely detached from the world as she focused intently on the keyboard.
Levy had known that Flossie lived in the neighboring apartmentplex after catching a glimpse of her on the balcony by chance. He was surprised by her peculiar habits. She surprisingly enjoyed spending time and working on the balcony.
Levy remembered Thomasina’s words. “Is this about Flossie?” He doubted it. However, Flossie had yed a role. Thomasina mentioned that Flossie had insulted her. How could such a gentle young girl ever insult others?
Word of Ellie’s return spread quickly through the elite circles. Many youngdies sent her invitations for afternoon tea.
“If you don’t feel like going, just decline,” Kaiden advised when he returned from work and found Ellie sorting through the invitations for an hour.
“Come on, things have changed,” Ellie remarked seriously.
In the past, she would have definitely refused these invitations outright. But now she wasn’t just herself; she was also Kaiden’s wife and the daughter of the Lambert family, who had been a topic of gossip for many years.
Beyond the social expectations, Ellie represented Kaiden and the Lambert family.
Kaiden gently tapped her forehead and chuckled. “Ellie, you’re only twenty-one. You don’t have to follow all these rules. I’m not bothered by that.”
Kaiden stuck to his own ways and rarely got involved in social events. Only after marrying Ellie had he started joining some activities.
“You might not mind, but I do,” Ellie insisted, not wanting Kaiden to face criticism because of her.

In the end, Ellie agreed to one of the invitations that included not only her but also Baylee, so they could keep each otherpany.
“Behave yourself when you’re out,” Kaiden reminded Ellie before she left.
“You sound like I enjoy causing trouble,” Ellie countered. “Just ask around. Whichdy doesn’t say ‘I’m well-behaved, gentle, and dignified’?”
Kaiden couldn’t help butugh at her response.
The party took ce at a newly opened vacation resort in Critport. The resort had been doing well in business recently, attracting many young men and women from various families to enjoy the new venue.
True to expectations, Ellie was questioned about her rtionship with the Lambert family and whether she was expecting. Ellie answered these inquiries superficially, avoiding the deeper issues. Suddenly, she tugged on the hem of Baylee’s clothes, signaling her to look in a certain direction.
Not far away, a group of people approached, and among them was Aphrodite.
“Aphrodite, I think that’s Ellie and Baylee,” one of Aphrodite’s friends pointed out.
