Chapter 116: Chapter 115: Light at the End of the Tunnel

"Grandma, I’ll go help out first." Elliana Lyle smiled gently. As long as she didn’t make any mistakes, presumably Grandma Lyle wouldn’t find too much to criticize.

Grandma Lyle’s face was full of wrinkles, and it seemed that the cane in her hand might fall on Elliana at any moment.

But with so many people around, Grandma Lyle just nodded slightly.

When she left the room, a little girl followed her out.

"Elliana, can I take a picture with you?"

A clear voice sounded from behind her. Elliana turned to look at the source of the voice, only to find a pleasant-looking girl, about 14 years old, who was probably still in middle school.

She was dressed simply and was someone Elliana didn’t know, likely a relative from her brother-in-law’s family.

Seeing the girl’s expectant expression, Elliana finally agreed.

As soon as Elliana left, the little girl posted on her social media with the caption: "My newfound sister, who knew she’s a star, from now on my sister’s got my back."

...

"Hey, how’s it going? Can you hurry up a little?"

Elliana was hiding in the bathroom, making a call with a backup phone for Luna.

The voice on the other end sounded a bit impatient: "Busy, busy. I’ll come get you when it’s done. Bye."

Beep beep beep...

Luna’s manner remained unchanged; she was accustomed to it.

It was already 11 o’clock. She had just seen her father in the elaborately decorated engagement banquet hall. Although not far away, she didn’t want to go over and greet him.

Some things are not so easy to let go of, nor are they easily forgiven.

But now she had to go and say hi, because the household registration book was in her parents’ room. To avoid troubles, she even thought of a specific reason.

Looking at her father chatting with a few men, she took a deep breath and then calmly walked over.

"Dad~"

Elliana smiled sweetly and obediently, giving outsiders the impression that the father and daughter had an excellent relationship.
