Chapter 164: Chapter 162: Calm on the Surface

"Auntie, you wait for me here, okay? I’m going to the restroom and will be right back! There are candies and fruits here, I’ll be back in a minute." Eliza Bennett settled her there like coaxing a child, appearing like a little adult.

She smiled and ruffled Eliza’s pigtails, replying, "Alright, I’ll wait for you here, won’t go anywhere."

After Eliza left, she stood by the balcony, staring blankly at the bright crescent moon in the sky.

"Elliana."

Hearing the voice, he looked towards the source, only to see Mia Clarke walking towards her shyly, her smile rather flirtatious.

As the woman approached closer, he didn’t quite know how to address Mia Clarke. To be honest, she didn’t want to call this woman "Auntie," so she decided to follow Norman Bennett’s lead and call her by her name.

"Mia Clarke."

This address made Mia Clarke freeze, her smile almost vanishing.

"Elliana, how did you come here? Didn’t your dad take you home?"

She dared to bring it up herself, so she replied with a sarcastic smile, "Thanks to you."

Perhaps seeing her unpleasant attitude, Mia Clarke stopped beating around the bush. She walked up beside her, leaned on the balcony railing, and said directly, "Elliana, you know, right? Norman’s father doesn’t like you, he has someone else in mind, there’s no possibility for you two."

"Oh? Is that so?" She feigned grievance, "Well, sorry to say, but Norman and I are already legally married, what now?"

Came to disgust her, did she? Well, if she didn’t fight fire with fire, then Mia Clarke’s "effort" would be wasted, wouldn’t it?

"What did you say?"

The two faced each other, she smiling leisurely while Mia Clarke’s eyes were shadowed with anger.

Just then, she was suddenly pulled, and realized that Eliza had already stood in front of her, glaring angrily at Mia Clarke.
