Chapter 247
“She’s feeling under the weather today, so she’s just resting at home.”
While they chatted, Rita saw the autographed item in Aunt Mary’s hand.
“Is… Is that Elia’s autograph?!” she exclaimed.
She had been asking her father to get Elia’s autograph for her. However, he never helped
her with it. He did not even allow her to approach Elia, which angered her immensely.
Unexpectedly, Mary managed to obtain Elia’s autograph!
Mary handed it to Rita with a smile. “I actually got this for you. Since you happen to be
here, don’t have to go looking for you anymore.”
Rita took it with a look of surprise. “Thank you, Aunt Mary! But how did you get her
autograph?”
I
Mary smiled and said, “It wasn’t me! Miss Pond got it. If there’s anyone to thank, it should
be her.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Rita heard this, she looked at Ada and spoke with a grateful expression, “Thank you,
Miss Pond. Also, congratulations on winning the design competition!”
Ada responded with a reserved smile and said, “You were really outstanding too. I saw that
you won third place.”
Rita nodded. “Yes. Either way, you’re still excellent, Miss Pond. My father is asking me to
learn more from you!”
Before she came, she had been neutral toward Ada. After she discovered that Ada knew
Elia and even obtained the autograph, Rita immediately changed her attitude.
“You don’t have to learn from me. I’ve seen your designs, and they’re amazing as well.”
Rita looked at Ada curiously and changed the subject. “How did you get to know Elia?
She’s my idol!”
Ada’s smile became a little unnatural. “We met at an event overseas. I never thought that
she would become a judge in the design competition.”
“Did you invite her to your banquet?”
Ever since she coincidentally crossed paths with Elia at home, she had wanted to see what
Elia looked like. It would be great if she could get to know her.
“I invited her, but she doesn’t have time to come over. She’s incredibly busy with her
work,” Ada slowly said.
“Okay.”
Rita was disappointed, but she knew that it would not be easy to meet Elia.
“Oh yeah, since you know her, do you have any photos of her? She’s my idol, so I’ve
always been curious about what she looks like.”
Ada shook her head. “No. After all, people her age aren’t very fond of taking photos.”

Rita’s eyes glinted with surprise! Something seemed off.
“Her age?”
Wasn’t Elia around the same age as them?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore Ada could reply, Mary said, “Yes. Elia’s about our age, so it’s not surprising that she
doesn’t like to be in photos.”
Rita frowned as she looked at Ada and asked, “Are you sure that you really know Elia?”
The girl who previously walked past her was clearly in her twenties. How could she
possibly be the same age as her mother?
Ada’s heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad feeling.
However, she immediately assumed that it would be impossible for Rita to have met Elia.
With that, she calmed down and nodded. “Yes. We even met after the competition ended
today.”
Right after Ada answered, Rita’s expression turned cold.
“You’re lying!”
Her voice was loud, and it instantly drew a lot of attention.
When Mary realized that others had started to look at them, she quickly held Rita’s hand.
“Why are you yelling all of a sudden?”
Rita sneered. “I’ve walked past Elia before. At that time, I didn’t realize it was her, but I’m
pretty sure that she’s about my age. She couldn’t possibly be in her forties!”
