Chapter 146: Chapter 144: The Park

Bennett Family Villa.

"Buddy, we’re here."

Luna had already parked for half a minute, yet Elliana showed no reaction, so Luna had to remind her.

"Oh, okay." Elliana snapped back to reality, hurriedly reaching for the car door, only to be restrained by the seat belt.

"What’s got you distracted? Your dad doesn’t seem like a nice person; what are you upset about? Just skip tomorrow’s event, out of sight, out of mind."

Elliana unbuckled her seat belt, lightly responding, "Hmm."

She thought a lot along the way; she didn’t want to go tomorrow either. She wasn’t Shawn Lyle’s only daughter.

And she didn’t want to see the man who betrayed her mother.

"It’s so late, you might as well not leave." She got out of the car and said to Luna, who was still inside.

Luna waved her hand and said, "I’m busy, no time to stay here. Go inside, I’m leaving."

As she entered the gate, Lana greeted her with a smile, but upon seeing her unwell appearance, quickly restrained her smile and asked with concern, "Young lady, what’s wrong?"

Trying not to worry Lana, she forced a smile, "It’s nothing... exam retakes are mentally draining, I’m just tired."

Lana immediately understood, saying, "Then please rest well after your bath, would you like anything to eat?"

"Luna and I ate outside, no need to worry about me, go rest early."

...

The next day.

"Girl, time to wake up."

After being called by the man for over ten minutes, Elliana gradually awoke, finding herself leaning in his arms.
