The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 150: Chapter 148: What a Huge Weasel

"Hey, Luna."

"How did it go today? | heard from Lana that Norman Bennett took you out. Who would've thought Norman was

quite the capable one."

Elliana Lyle covered the phone and looked up at the man. Seeing no change in his expression, she asked the

person on the other end, "Why are you calling?"

"No reason, just wanted to check if you're still alive."

Luna was joking; she didn’t intend to tell Elliana about Emily Lyle today, especially since Elliana seemed to be in

a better mood.

After hanging up, Elliana snuggled back into the man’s arms and started scrolling through her phone.

The first thing she did was check Weibo for news. There wasn’t much going on in the trending topics, but Joy Lyle

had becone of the audiences’ favorite celebrities.

Seeing this, she quickly went and cast a vote for Joy Lyle.

Compared to her tragic fate in the past life, this one’s clearly much better.

As she continued browsing Weibo, she cacross the news posted by Tommy.

[Popular Actress Surrounded by Reporters]

Intrigued by the headline, she opened the article and found out who Tommy was talking about!

This guy! He's even capitalizing on his boss for money...

But it seemed the content was beneficial for her!

Corn: "Tommy always has the inside scoop. | knew those negative news about Elliana had to cfrom

somewhere. Turns out it’s because she offended someone. Roland is a big company after all, and they're

retaliating because Elliana stopped chasing after Shane Southwell. Remarkable."

Sammy: "Elliana is still in her final year of university, and she’s about to graduate. It's normal for the company to

drop her movie. Besides, isn’t the company owned by her fiancé? Which executive would dare to sideline her?"

The next day.

[Famous streamer Lina Dunn... has recently been detained by police for illegal streaming on an unregulated

platform.]

This was a push notification early in the morning. Elliana was a bit bewildered upon seeing it.

All the female influencers listed were from Simon King’s platform; how did they all end up doing this?

Just as she thought it was a spectacle, an idea popped into her head!

If one influencer getting caught could be due to individual issues, but several influencers from the splatform

being caught for illegal streaming can’t be just their problem.

Maybe the illegal software is Simon King’s black market operation!

With this in mind, she immediately sent the news link to Luna, along with her theory.

She still hadn't settled her score with Simon King. Maybe she could use this to bring him down!

But it's just a hypothesis for now; it needs verification!

Luna(Master): "Ill look into it. By the way, | have sbad news for you."

Cat: "What bad news? Tell me."

Luna(Master): "Your dad brought Emily Lyle back home. She even showed up yesterday for his birthday. This

bitch is playing the long gwith you."

The news indeed caught her off guard. It turns out Emily Lyle was just putting on an act when she spoke to her

face-to-face.

But she didn’t care. If Shawn Lyle wants to bring a few illegitimate daughters home, let him. It doesn’t concern

her much.

She also wasn’t fazed.

——10 AM.

An "uninvited guest" arrived at the Bennett Family villa.

"Cousin, what brings you here?" In front of others, she still had to address Ada Lee as cousin.

Ada Lee was clearly dressed to impress, with a pencil skirt and a white blouse speckled with tiny starry particles,

making her exude intellectual beauty.

She knew Ada Lee's intentions weren't good, but she couldn't be bothered to waste energy.

She decided to just wait and see.

"Elliana, | didn’t see you yesterday, so | thought I'd cpersonally today. After all, it's not easy for our sisterly

gatherings." Ada Lee smiled warmly, her eyes radiating a gentle charm.

Inside, Elliana laughed coldly, secretly mocking: This fox is certainly pretending to be nice.

"Cousin, since you're here, cin and have stea." She then stepped aside, taking the hostess stance.

After all, she truly was the lady of the house here.

Even these small details didn’t escape Ada Lee's notice. Though she showed no visible signs of discomfort, she

was feeling quite uneasy inside.

"Lana, serve the tea for our guest," she said, and turned to Ada Lee with a smile, "Cousin, sit down, make

yourself at home."

This "make yourself at home" momentarily pleased Ada Lee. She sat gracefully without surveying the

surroundings.

"Elliana, the last t| visited here, | used this set of teaware. It's exquisite. | wanted to buy a set for myself but

haven't found one yet."

Ada’s words conveyed two pieces of information to her: First, Ada had been here! Second, Ada had used this set

of teaware!

She wasn’t even aware!

So she said, "Cousin, if you like it, just take it with you. Our hdoesn’t lack this set of teaware."

Ada’s face immediately showed feigned helplessness, gently reprimanding, "Elliana, you and Norman aren't

married yet, so how can you make such decisions?"

Pretending to gently reprimand, but subtly suggesting she was being inappropriate.

She then turned towards Lana with a grievance, asking, "Lana, can | make this decision? Wouldn't Norman be

upset when he returns?"

Lana, standing by, was taken aback. She truly didn’t understand what the young mistress was up to today, but

since she was asked, she had to reply. So she smiled respectfully, "Young mistress, you can handle anything in

this villa. Young master adores you; he wouldn't blyou."

Hearing Lana, Elliana raised an eyebrow and clapped her hands into the air, instructing, "Wrap this teaware up

for my cousin to take later."

Anyway, if she didn’t take it, she would have it sanitized before reselling it! All because Ada mentioned it!

Lana reacted swiftly and agreed immediately.

The smile on Ada Lee's face was fading fast. She was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say. She glanced

at the maid named Lana, making a mental note that when she becthe lady of the Bennett Family, Lana

would be the first to go!

"Cousin? What's wrong? Aren’t you happy? | thought giving you the teaware would make you happy."

Faced with Elliana’s question, Ada Lee was clearly restless, but she couldn't get stuck over teaware; her main

reason for coming today had yet to be addressed.

"Happy, I'm happy with anything Elliana gives." Ada Lee quickly changed the subject, "By the way, Elliana, why

didn’t you cback yesterday? Uncle was furious. But when Emily showed up later, he was much happier."

The Emily she referred to was Emily Lyle, who had call this way to talk about her.

But now, she was willing to play along with Ada Lee, so she asked, "Cousin, who's Emily?"

"You don’t know? Uncle kept it well hidden from us. It turns out Aunt gave birth to Emily abroad while she was

still alive. | suppose you didn’t know either."
