Chapter 125

Harold looked up and saw that Lysander had returned at some point.

Lysander's expression was cold, revealing nothing of his true emotions.

It was as if Harold were seeing Wyatt as a young man again.

Harold stood up and said to Lysander, "You two chat, and I'll go take care of some things first."

"Is this how you treat me, as an outsider? Is there something you can't say in front of me? You can only talk about it in secret with Elara?" Lysander said.

Just because Lysander was pleasant in Elara's presence didn't mean he was equally friendly to everyone else.

In the past, when he was a student at Brookfield, he didn't even interact much with others.

Even facing Harold now, it didn't seem to soften him.

He knew Harold was Elara's uncle, but it still made him uncomfortable that Harold continually tried to set Elara someone else..

That was something that made it hard for Lysander to ignore.

Lysander's words were filled with intimidation, and Harold listened, casting a sidelong glance at him. Though Lysander was young, he was still the "Mr. Blue-Blooded of the esteemed Hawthorne family. While he didn't want Elara to marry Lysander, he also didn't want to alienate the Hawthorne family. With their status in Starfield City, a rift could jeopardize his future in the manor business.

If he truly wanted to sever ties, he should have done so long ago.

Harold had some guts, but not much.
