Chapter 256
Eleanor returned to her room, feeling a bit uneasy as Ethan hadn’t followed her in to stop her.
Turns out, Ethan was going back to G country all because she refused to be her sister’s replacement at breakfast.
He knew she wanted to stay, so he initiated that conversation earlier to force her to obey.
There’s no way she’d be someone’s replacement again, so she pretended not to care, trying to make Ethan give up on the idea.
But it’s clear that Ethan held all the cards and didn’t care about her bargaining.
Feeling frustrated, Eleanor sat on her bed, curling up and burying her head in her sleeves.
Ethan walked in and, seeing her like this, lifted his chin provocatively: “Weren’t you supposed to pack? Why haven’t you started?”
Upon hearing his voice, Eleanor raised her head in defiance, glaring at him: “Just give me a minute.”
Amused by her tantrum, Ethan backed off: “If you come with me to another country, you won’t have to be Emilia’s replacement.”

It’s a *to have Bernard so in love with her here. Both of them fighting for her would just be exhausting. Better to leave now.
Eleanor looked at him in surprise: “Really?”
Ethan replied nonchalantly: “When have I ever lied to you?”
Eleanor didn’t quite trust Ethan’s words, keeping her head down and silent, but internally considering if she should try to escape.
“Don’t even think about it.”
It seemed like Ethan had seen right through her thoughts, mercilessly poking at her little scheme.
“You won’t be able to.”
He looked down on her with a superior attitude: “Unless you learn from your sister…”
His eyes showed his determination not to let her go. Eleanor felt a surge of fear.
She stared at Ethan, as if only now realizing what kind of person he was: “So this is how you killed my sister.”
Ethan’s expression darkened, guilt surrounding him, but he didn’t deny it: “That’s right. So do you want to give it a try?”
Eleanor’s face turned even paler: If I die will you let me go then?”
Ethan walked up to her, bent down, stared into her dull eyes, and coldly said: “Now that you have her heart, I won’t let you die. Just be obedient.”
Eleanor’s face became bitter, suddenly not knowing the meaning of being alive.
She struggled to move her eyes and looked at Ethan: “Didn’t you love my sister very much?”
She couldn’t understand how someone could love a person so much yet find someone else to be that person’s substitution.
Ethan sneered, indifferent: “Who said I loved her?”
