?Chapter 339:


    Opening the door, Elena found Lydia hidden beneath the covers, seemingly unaware of the risk of suffocation.


    Elena thought Lydia might still be sleeping, but as she pulled back the covers, Lydia’s flushed face met her gaze.


    Frowning, Elena asked, “Is your wound infected?” An infection could cause a high fever, which might exin the flush on Lydia’s cheeks. She reached out to touch Lydia’s forehead, but Lydia quickly stopped her.


    Clearing her throat, Lydiaposed herself. “I’m fine. What brings you here?”


    Noticing Lydia’s lively demeanor, Elena took a seat. “I need to ask you something.”


    Lydia’s expression turned serious. “I know what you’re going to ask. As soon as I entered Avaloria’s airspace, Earle’s men were on me. It was no coincidence. Earle—”


    “Earle must have been monitoring my movements, and I’m not sure if the signal from your master was actually tampered with by him.”


    At that moment, Lydia had barely managed to turn around. Had she not quickly sent a distress signal to Elena, she might have fallen into Earle’s hands.


    Elena lowered her eyes, a coldness overtaking her elegant features. After so long, she had thought she was close to finding her master, only to be faced with the unsettling possibility that it was all a trap.


    Elena nodded, her tone icy. “Exactly. It’s no coincidence. You barely detected the signal before Earle showed up.”


    Lydia’s brow furrowed. “You’re saying Earle fabricated the signal?”


    “It seems so.”


    Lydiaughed with anger, her eyes burning with determination. “That scoundrel! I swear, I’ll catch him someday!”


    Though furious inside, Elena kept herposure. “Focus on getting better first. Jeffry’s ce is very secure. You’re safe here.”


    Lydia nodded in agreement, a blush spreading across her cheeks again at the mention of Jeffry. A thought brightened her expression, and with curiosity, she asked, “Speaking of which, what’s the story with you and Mr. Spencer? You can’t tell me nothing is going on. He even went with you into the jungle, and I know he’s not one to do things without reason.”


    Elena’s eyshes flickered, her lips pressing tightly together.

    Seeing that Elena did not outright deny it, Lydia knew there was something there. “He has good taste, unlike that arrogant fool Darren who thinks you’re into him. If it’s Mr. Spencer, you should really consider it. He’s quite a catch, you know. You’d be lucky.”


    Lydia’s eyes sparkled, clearly showing her support for Wesley. Together, Wesley and Elena would make an impressive couple, both strikingly good-looking—a match made in heaven.


    Elena furrowed her brows. Her and Wesley?


    Without dy, Elena made her way to Edgewing the next day.


    At the reception desk, a young woman perked up at the mention of Elena’s name and promptly dialed the CEO’s office.


    Momentster, a woman of poised elegance stepped off the elevator.


    Charlette’s eyes swept over Elena, taking in her impable appearance with a knowing look, clearly piecing together the reasons behind Wesley’s fondness.
