She Got A Better Man

Chapter 49

Elvira decided it was time to improve Cole's life significantly. She pooled together 6 million dollars from her recent company sale and a portion of the company's dividends. Her plan was to buy him a house and a car, to ensure he wouldn't have to endure hardship any

longer.

With his ID in hand, she easily acquired both the house and the car. Cole, buried in work, was surprised by a delivery box containing two keys.

Once Elvira received notification of the delivery being accepted, she messaged him, [These are the keys to your new house and car. From now on, your salary will match the market standard. No more settling for just 600 dollars.]

Cole, his lips curving into a slight smile, responded with a single word, [Okay.]

She cherished this about him-his compliance and supportiveness reminded her of a kitten, always ready to follow her lead.

After settling things down for him, Elvira headed to a mall to buy presents for Zach and Tracy.

She chose a tie and a pair of cufflinks for him, and for Tracy, she picked out a set of exquisite traditional clothes.

As she was leaving the mall, she encountered Judy, who lit up upon seeing her. Eagerly approaching, she greeted, "Elvira, what a coincidence to see you here. Oh, are these birthday gifts for grandma? You're so thoughtful! These aren't cheap, and are these for Calvin?" Judy's admiration masked her disdain. 'Despite claiming she won't return to the Willis family, now here she is, secretly pleasing Karen with birthday gifts. And the gifts for a man? Clearly an attempt to win Calvin back. She really leaves no stone unturned!' she thought. Ignoring Judy's insinuations, Elvira walked away, but Judy's companion, seeing how arrogant Elvira was, became furious and blocked her. She stared at Elvira and accused angrily, "Elvira, you're as shameless and uncultured as ever! Having you as a student was the greatest shame of my life!"

Elvira usually wouldn't bother with such nonsense, but she recognized from the woman's tone and then her appearance with a short glance that she was her senior high school counselor, Lily Watson.

sparing future students from her toxicity. Elvira didn't want to waste another minute on these two, finding no pleasure in exchanging barbs. She was ready to leave when Judy suddenly let go of Lily and grabbed her, pleading, "Don't go, Elvira. Since we're all here, let's grab a meal with Miss Watson, huh?"
