Chapter 47

At that moment, someone approached. "Hi, Miss Kensington."

Elara glanced over and recognized it was Chloe Wright, her father's secretary. She felt a wave of relief wash over her. "Hi, Chloe."

Chloe replied, "Mr. Kensington asked me to come and get you."

Elara nodded and turned to Lysander. "Then I'll be on my way. See you later."

Lysander watched her figure as she followed her family to the car before getting in himself and leaving.

The Kensington family had a villa in Starfield City, but Elara hadn't been there much since she had been living in Brookfield.

Chloe sat in the passenger seat. "Mr. Kensington has been busy with meetings lately. He won't be back for a few days, so he asked me to come take care of you."

Elara replied, "Thank you for coming to pick me up."

"It's my pleasure," Chloe said. She had worked alongside Barrett for some time now.

Some time ago, because Chloe had gone back to give birth, she had asked Monica to replace her. Chloe had recently returned to work and taken on the task of looking after Elara.

Once they arrived at the villa, Elara took a shower and freshened up. The house staff had prepared dinner and brought it to

her.

While eating, she called Ursa. Ursa asked, "Mr. Blackwood hasn't had dinner. Should I prepare something for him?"

"Why bother?" Elara replied. "If he doesn't want to eat, then fine. No one's going to pamper him."

'He's the one causing trouble, and now he's blaming me?' Elara thought.

Ursa continued, "Mr. Hawthorne took quite a hit. He's injured pretty badly. But the doctor said it's nothing serious. He just needs a few days to recover."

"As long as he doesn't die, it's fine," Elara said while eating.
