Chapter 174

Elara nodded. "Yes."

Felicity gave her a warm smile. "Looks like it's just us girls relying on each other"

Elara laughed. "You get some rest, alright?"

Felicity said, "Zavala and the others are still around."

Elara said, "It's alright. You rest, and I'll check on them downstairs. You haven't eaten, have you? I'll arrange something for you." With that, she headed downstairs.

Adair was already gone. Only Zavala was there, sitting by herself

Elara asked, "Adair already left?"

Zavala said, "Yeah. She got a call and rushed off. No idea what for. By the way, I heard you've officially taken up the position." Elara said, "Yes!"

"That's wonderful!" Zavala laughed. "We might need your help with something someday."

Elara chuckled. "Oh, we have so many lawyers in the family. If anyone's needed, it would probably be my mentor."

Zavala said, "Your mentor? She's hard to get hold of! Even arranging a meal with her is impossible."

Elara responded, "If Adair doesn't mind, you can always come to me. I'd be more than happy to help!"

Zavala laughed.

Elara excused herself, saying, "I'll go check on the kitchen."

She arranged dinner, made sure everything was in order, and then returned.

Zavala observed Elara, noticing how different she seemed.

In the past, she'd visit briefly, almost in passing. Now, she handled everything as if it were her own home, arranging things smoothly and attentively. Zavala asked, "How's it going living here with Lysander?"

Elara replied, "It's going well! But he's always so busy with work, hardly has any time at home, so I come by to help look after things when I can." Zavala remarked, "I worried you wouldn't be comfortable here, but it looks like you're doing fine."

Elara smiled slightly. She'd spent so many years in cramped apartments that she could adapt to anything now.

Not long after, Aubrey and Lysander arrived.

"Hi, Elara," Aubrey greeted Elara.

Elara glanced between the two brothers, her gaze settling on Lysander. "What brings you here?"

Lysander replied, "I heard you were here, so I came by to see you."
