Chapter 183 Ellimane Invited You to Join

As they talked, Elise helped Laura into her room. Robin, on the other hand, said that he wanted to get some tea, so he went downstairs. The door had just closed when Laura said to Elise in a serious tone, “Ellie, we already know about you and Alex.”

For a moment, Elise was stunned, but soon she curved her lips into a smile. “Then are you here to attend our engagement party?”

Laura took Elise’s hand. “Ellie, be honest with me. Do you really want this? Your grandpa and I do think that Alex is a fine guy, but your thoughts are also important to me. If you don’t like him that much, you don’t have to force yourself.”

Elise knew that her grandparents were the nicest people in the world to her. “Don’t worry, Grandma. I agreed to the engagement exactly because I like him. As for the wedding, I’m still too young to be legally married, so we’ll wait another 2 years to make a decision.”

Hearing Elise’s words, Laura could finally let go of the burdens in her heart. “As long as you’re happy with it, I’ll give you all my support. Still, time goes by too fast, doesn’t it? Just in the blink of an eye, my dear Ellie is already getting married…” Laura caressed Elise’s hair, her voice taking on a melancholic tone. Elise leaned against her. “Grandma, I’ll be fine…”

“Yes, I believe you will.”

The two chatted for a bit, then Elise got Laura to her own room. Then, as soon as Elise turned around, she realized that Alexander was standing just behind her.

“You… You’re back?”

Alexander looked at her, then asked, “Have they settled down?”

Elise nodded. “It’s been a tiring journey for them. They’re already asleep.”

“Good. Just tell Stella if they have any needs. The new year is coming soon, so it’s nice to have more people around. The more, the merrier, yes?”

Elise looked up into his eyes. “Are you the one who took them here?” Elise had already guessed it somehow, but she still asked for confirmation.

As expected, Alexander nodded. “You seem lonely here, so they’re glad to come and accompany you.”
