Elaine's appearance caused a flicker of panic to pass through Clifford's eyes. Immediately, he cleared his throat. "It's nothing. We were just talking."

Clifford was naturally feeling guilty. He dared not let Elaine discover the matter he spoke with Zendaya.

"Zendaya. I need a clear answer from you," Clifford hinted vaguely.

After all, the people around them had no clue about what his conversation with Zendaya was about. The others were still clueless as to what Clifford meant.

Clifford naturally assumed that Zendaya would not speak of what had just happened. After all, it wasn't something worth showing off. Zendaya will keep this to herself and then leave to mull over my proposal. She might be heartbroken initially, but as long as she's smart, she'll understand I'm offering her love, a worry-free future. children, and a home. The only thing she won't have is a proper title and my open acknowledgment of our relationship. This is the best option I can think of and the best outcome for her.

Clifford was brimming with confidence, feeling as if he had solved a significant problem and that he didn't need to use Zendaya to provoke Elaine anymore.

All he needed to focus on was reconciling with Elaine.

As his train of thought ended, Clifford turned to look at Elaine, lowering his guard, ready to speak.

However, Elaine didn't even spare him a glance. Instead, she furrowed her brows and looked toward Zendaya, questioning, "What's going on? What is he talking about?"

The crowd was still wondering if Elaine suspected Zendaya of trying to snatch Clifford away.

Only Isabella and Alexander knew that Elaine had already received the DNA test results, confirming that Zendaya was her half-sister from the same mother..

Wow, such a protective stance. So, Elaine isn't actually angry at Zendaya, but rather, she's excited because she found her sister. As expected of Elaine. I'm impressed. Isabella smiled.
