?Chapter 473:


    Francesca hurried after her. “Elena, you know Mr. Spencer? He didn’t give you a hard time, did he? Even though he’s friends with your brother, he seems way too controlling…”


    Francesca assumed Wesley had scolded Elena inside. She never considered that Wesley’s fury might stem from jealousy—and there was a reason for that.


    It made sense, though. Wesley, known for his high status and distant demeanor, was famous for being unemotional and uninterested in women. Those who tried to seduce him met miserable ends. Consequently, he was rarely linked romantically with any woman.


    Elena stopped. “No. Well, Francesca, it’ste. I’m going home.”


    As Elena turned, Francesca’s eyes suddenly widened. No way! Was she seeing things?


    Francesca shook her head. Impossible! She must have been mistaken! Why did Elena’s lips look swollen, as if kissed…


    She quickly dismissed the idea. How could Wesley possibly be interested in women?


    At that very moment, Wesley—usually calm and dignified—not only showed interest in a woman but was also left with a sense of longing.


    Felix walked in but stopped short when he noticed Wesley’s state. He lowered his gaze, deciding not to say anything. Wesley’s reaction seemed quite intense… It must be unbearable to keep it all in.


    Elena didn’t return to Hillside Manor after leaving Empire. Instead, she headed straight to her garage.


    A minuteter, she was speeding down a deserted road on her motorcycle, cutting through the night like a bolt of lightning. Moonlight washed over her detached, cold face, her brows knit tightly with anger flickering in her gaze. The wind whipped her long hair, trailing a subtle medicinal scent behind her.


    After ap, Elena stopped her motorcycle halfway up the hill. She leaned casually against the front of the bike, her posture steady, shoulders and neck held straight like a sturdy tree standing firm. Her thick hair fluttered wildly in the breeze.


    She hadposed herself once again. Rarely did she let her emotions get the better of her. Whether it was being mistreated by Benjamin and Cecily, caught in Sylvia’s schemes, or when Darren ended their engagement, she had always maintained herposure.


    Today, she realized, she should have kept that control. As an engaged man, Wesley should have maintained a respectful distance from all women, including her.
