Chapter 247

Lysander said, "You've been here long enough."

"Fine, fine!" Violet retorted, "You stayed at my house for ages, and I never said anything. I've only been here a few days, and you're already tired of me?"

With that, Violet stormed into the house, visibly upset.

Lysander watched her retreat, frowning.

Elara sat on the sofa. She noticed Violet come in. She greeted her, but Violet ignored it, heading straight upstairs.

Moments later, Lysander walked in.

From the scene, Elara could easily tell he had upset Violet again.

She found it amusing. Lysander rarely angered anyone, yet he and Violet seemed to clash constantly.

Sometimes, Elara even suspected Lysander did it on purpose just to tease Violet.

"What did you do to upset her this time?" Elara asked.

Lysander removed his camouflage jacket and replied, "Uncle Steven's coming tomorrow to take her back to Brookfield. She's not happy about it and said I don't want her around."

Elara commented, "She's been doing fine here. Why not let her stay a bit longer? She's not a kid anymore, so what's the rush to send her back to Brookfield?"

Lysander's gaze shifted to Elara. "She's been spending too much time with Dana. I brought it up, and she insisted Dana was a good person. I don't want her to be taken advantage of." Lysander worried that Asher might try to exploit the situation once he found out.

Elara said, "You've got a point!"

Lysander had already warned Violet about Dana the last time she came over. Yet, Violet had brought Dana back again.

Lysander remarked, "You've been spoiling her while she's been staying here. That's why she doesn't want to leave." "How am I spoiling her?" Elara asked.

Lysander pointed out. "Buying her whatever she asks for. She's still got a childlike mindset. You can't keep indulging her."

Elara smirked. "Oh, so why do you buy me whatever I want?"

Lysander froze at her question. He avoided her gaze as he sat down beside her without answering.

"I'm waiting for your answer," Elara pressed.

"You're my wife. That's different," he said. His wife deserved to be pampered.
