Ellie looked at the three elders of the Warren family and said with determination, “Grandpa, I am willing”

If this could earn the protection of the three elders of the Warren family, she was willing. If this meant that her relationship with Alex would be defined from now on, she was willing.

“Ellie!” Alex forcefully grabbed Ellie’s arm and pulled her close.

The two looked at each other, Alex’s eyes were red, he wanted to speak but stopped, his chest heaving significantly,

“Brother, please take care of me in the future.” Ellie was as calm as usual, her words carrying a hint of sarcasm.

Alex was on the brink of collapse, oscillating back and forth, staring at Ellie like that. After a long silence, he gritted his teeth and said, “Ellie, you can forget about it.”

Alex turned around angrily and left.

After leaving the Warren Manor, Ellie met with Aaron.

Previously, Nancy had wanted to adopt her as a daughter many times, but her parents didn’t agree, nor did she, because they felt they owed the Warren family too much.

But now she had come to terms with it. If her new identity could protect her from being bullied and allow her to live a peaceful life, she was willing.

At the entrance of the apartment building, by the roadside, Ellie had just gotten out of a taxi when Alex pulled her onto the sidewalk.

In the evening, on the roadside sidewalk, the two looked at each other.

Alex said, “Go tell Grandpa that you refuse to be adopted.”

Ellie tugged at the corners of her lips without speaking.

Seeing Ellie’s silence, Alex reached into Ellie’s pocket to take out her phone. “Call Grandpa now and tell him you refuse.” “This is my business, it has nothing to do with you.” Ellie retreated to avoid him.

Alex, seeing Ellie avoid him, angrily grabbed her arm and pulled her closer. Ellie struggled to break free, and Alex, afraid of hurting her, responded by holding her other hand.

Alex held both of her hands. “Ellie, we can never be siblings. You can forget about it…” Alex stopped abruptly as he
