After Death, Love Unveiled

Chapter 51

Felicity smiled when she saw Elara. "Mr. Kensington, is this your daughter? She's really beautiful."

Elara looked at her, feeling a bit puzzled. They had met before, yet Felicity acted like she didn't recognize her at all.

However, considering how many people were around that day, it wasn't surprising that Felicity hadn't paid much attention to Elara.

Elara asked, "How should I address this madam, Dad?"

Barrett replied, "You can call her Mrs. Hawthorne. She's Lysander's stepmother."

She might be Lysander's stepmother, but it was clear Lysander didn't acknowledge her as such.

Seeing her here now, Lysander asked, "What are you doing here

Felicity smiled. "Your father is coming home tonight, so I'm here to pick you up. You haven't been home in a while, and it's not good to be out all the time."

Lysander responded, Tm fine here."

"I know," Felicity said with a grin. "You and Miss Kensington get along well, but you can't be stuck together every single day. right? Once you're home, you can always come back to visit her

Lysander suddenly realized he had been staying at Elara's place for several days now. And since someone from the Hawthorne family had come to pick him up in person, he knew he had no choice but to go.

He turned to Elara and said, "I'm heading home, then."

Elara replied, "Alright."

After Felicity took Lysander away, Elara sat down on the sofa. Barrett looked at her and asked, "Where did you go? "We went skiing." Elara said. "It was really fun. I've been traveling around every day." It was as if she was on vacation. Barrett glanced at his daughter, who hadn't had a moment of rest since arriving in Starfield City. "I heard you've bought quite a few properties since you got here."

"Yes," Elara said. "I had some free time, so I wo

Barrett chuckled. "You've developed quite a love for buying houses lately, haven't you? It's either property or land. If I didn't have a solid financial foundation, you'd probably drain it dry."
