Although she had angered Emma enough for her to leave, Yelena’s anger still did not dissipate.

At the sight of Elspeth’s distraught state, she assumed that she had been hurt by Emma’s words and hastened to comfort her, saying, “Elspeth, don’t worry too much. Just think of what Emma said as pure bullsh*t.”

Elspeth knocked on her head and chided, “How can a young girl speak so crassly?”

“I just forgot because I was busy trying to comfort you.”

Moments later, Elspeth suddenly realized something. “Yelena, did you tell Max that you’re here?”

Recalling this matter, Yelena nibbled on her fork and replied, “I did. He said that he wanted to submit a leave of absence at school and come over with me, but I refused and came over secretly without telling him the date.”

Elspeth let out a chuckle. “What’s wrong? Don’t you want him to stay by your side all the time?”

Yelena furrowed her brow and sniffled. “That’s what I thought at first, but Max really is like my dad. Do you know that he even nags me about putting on hand cream before I go out? I can’t stand him!”

Although she said that, Elspeth knew that Yelena still liked Max. However, her feelings were no longer pathetic and were gradually being reciprocated.

“If you say that, I’m going to tell Max to start ignoring you,” Elspeth teased.

Yelena’s face fell. “Hey, don’t do that, Elspeth!”

At those words, Yelena suddenly realized that she had been teased. Her face immediately flushed red and she rushed back into her room.

Elspeth had just eaten and did not want to go back yet, so she went for a walk alone in the back garden of the hotel. While walking, she suddenly received a message from Jordan.

‘Where are you? Can we meet up now?’

Immediately, she turned her phone off, pretending to have not seen the message. However, right after that, Jordan appeared before her out of thin air.
