Chapter 198: Unexpected Incident

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

Marcus Blackwood didn’t sleep well all night, and there were faint dark circles under his eyes. I bowed my head and ate breakfast, not asking anything.

The silence between us felt heavy. I could sense his restlessness from across the table.

Alexander Blackwood seemed to notice his son’s expression and asked, “Are you feeling unwell?”
