Chapter 290:


    With no options left, Ailie was forced to face her new reality. She had been cast out from the Harper family.


    She sat dejectedly on the floor, herplexion pale, her spirit seemingly drained. The butler, with a firm tone, urged her to pack her belongings. With a heavy heart, she trudged back to her room to gather a few boxes containing the possessions of her life.


    As she made her way out, the Harper estate’s servants stood by, their eyes tracking her every move.


    Louis, worried about how this might affect Elena, nced at his sister, expecting to see some sign of emotion. To his surprise, her expression was unreadable, devoid of any discernible feeling.


    Impulsively, Louis snapped his fingers in front of Elena, breaking the silence. “Hey, what’s on your mind?” he asked, his voiceced with concern.


    Elena blinked, her eyes briefly shifting away before meeting his again. “It’s nothing important. But thank you for earlier,” she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper.


    A smile spread across Louis’s face as he yfully ruffled her hair. “What are you thanking me for? I’m your brother, after all,” he chuckled softly.


    Feeling the soft, silky strands between his fingers brought Louis a sense of fulfillment. He had always wanted to share such casual, affectionate gestures with Elena, and finally, the moment had arrived.


    Despite her typically cool and aloof demeanor—which made others hesitate to call her adorable—Louis always saw her through a lens of deep affection.


    In his eyes, Elena wasn’t just his sister; she was the epitome of beauty and sweetness, utterly adorable in every way.


    In Foiclens, Darren was contemting ending his engagement with Sylvia and seeking Elena’s forgiveness. After uncovering Elena’s origins, he had deliberately kept his distance from Sylvia. Whenever Sylvia tried to contact him, he consistently made excuses, iming he was too busy with work.


    The Reed family was now inplete disarray. Cecily had fallen ill, Benjamin had ended up in the hospital, and Sylvia had been publicly humiliated by troublemakers. Despite all these challenges, Darren never bothered to visit them.


    Previously, Darren would have rushed tofort Sylvia whenever she cried out in distress. But now, he chose to turn a blind eye to her struggles.

    At this time, Darren was entirely preupied with thoughts of Elena. He revealed to his family that Elena was the daughter of the respected Harper family from the.


    This revtion cast a somber mood over Aldin. They had previously distanced themselves from Elena by voluntarily cutting ties with her.
