Chapter 249

Elara said, "They've all gone home. Oh, except Aubrey. He's still here."

As soon as she finished speaking, Aubrey's voice rang out. "Lysander, you were absent at your big day, and yet Elara didn't leave you. You're one lucky man!"

Lysander turned to his younger brother, his sharp ears catching the sarcasm. "What? Do you hope she'll run away?"

The moment Lysander spoke, Aubrey's confidence visibly faltered. Despite his inner rebellion against his brother, he instinctively backed down under Lysander's intense gaze. Aubrey pursed his lips in silence, while Elara nudged Lysander. Come on, let's go inside."

Lysander followed her into the house, glancing at her thoughtfully.

He had anticipated a scene. Perhaps anger or frustration from Eara due to his late arrival. Instead, she appeared calm, even cheerful.

Noticing Lysander hadn't eaten yet, Elara instructed the housekeeper to prepare a meal. When it was ready, she served him a bowl of soup herself. "Eat up," she said warmly. Lysander watched her, smiling but cautious. "You didn't poison it did you?"

Elara chuckled, sitting beside him and pulling on gloves to shell a crab. "Why would I poison you?".

Lysander remarked, "I thought you'd be mad. You're way too composed."

She glanced at him, amused. "Would you have skipped coming Home without a good reason?"

Lysander replied, "Of course not."

"Then why would I be mad?" she replied matter-of-factly.

Elara sized up Lysander. "By the way, why did you change clothes? That's not what you left this morning. Were you sneaking around?"

Lysander groaned, laughing. "Sneaking around with who?"

Elara asked, "Then why did you change your clothes?"

He explained, "I helped a pregnant woman to the hospital. Got my clothes messy, so I had to change."

Aubrey, lounging on the couch, chimed in. "You're helping strangers on your big day? Come on, how do you always find yourself in these situations? It's so staged!" Elara turned her head and stared at him. "Why are you still here

Aubrey said, "I was going to leave, but I got curious about what my brother was up to."

"You can leave now," Elara replied firmly.
