him. “Be careful on your way back.”
He blinked at her as an acknowledgment. The control panel exuded faint blue light, which shrouded him in a glowing sheen with a
touch of sophisticated grace.
Only when he left the place that she finally sent her address to Selena, who would arrive soon. Ellen wandered outside the
neighborhood to buy snecessities. By the tSelena’s car halted at the entrance, Ellen happened to be there with a bag of

“Yup, for the tbeing.” Ellen reciprocated.
Selena carried her luggage into the neighborhood when Ellen beccurious about something. “Where are Uncle Connor and Aunt
Olivia going? Is it something important?”
“Dad's friend passed away, so they'll be helping with the funeral for the next few days. I'm scared” Selena made up an excuse for
herself. Since she had set her heart to approach Jared by leveraging Ellen, she put down her egoism

When they arrived at the door to Ellen’s place, Selena wondered if the rental house comprised only one bedroom. However, her
eyes widened in astonishment the second Ellen opened the door. She lives here? It's huge and luxurious! And how is this a one-

beautiful lady he knows”
“What? A beautiful lady?
“Yeah! She's really pretty and seemed to be from a rich family. They're quite close. | think they're going out.”
Selena blurted, “He's taken?”
“Who said he was single? Of course, he has one.” Ellen put on a serious face while making up a story, hoping it would stop Selena
from bothering Jared.
