Chapter 297 There Can Only Be One of Us
The next day, Elise was shaken awake by a person while she was still dreaming, and that person was none other than Addison. “Wake up, Elise. Someone came to deliver you a parcel and breakfast.” Since Elise was not a person who liked to stay in bed, plus she wanted to know as well who had sent her a parcel and breakfast, she got up.

The sharp voice carrying mean comments echoed into Alexander’s ears, wiping the smile off his face and turning his expression stiff. “Mom, I’m already engaged to her, and she’ll be your daughter-in-law in the future.
