Annelise raised her hands, trying to shield her head from the rain.
But she was instantly drenched, becoming soaked like a drowned rat.
Just as she was about to take out a tissue to wipe the rain off her face, she realized her bag was left in Elias Warner’s car.
My bag?
Annelise frowned.
There are so important things in the bag, including Luna’s dical record from Breslin.
If Elias Warner finds out, what should I do?
She anxiously chased after Elias Warner’s vehicle.
But the car had already gone far.
She picked up her phone, intending to call for a ride, but realized her phone was waterlogged.
She was instantly in a state of panic.
A sharp screech of brakes sounded and a car stopped in front of Annelise.
Annelise raised her eyes; it was Elias Warner’s car.
She was about to step forward to ask for her bag, but saw Uncle Ford open the car door and hand the bag over.
Annelise hurriedly took the bag and examined it carefully.
Seeing there were no signs of it being opened, she let out a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness.
Elias Warner watched Annelise’s every move from inside the car.
This woman, only worried about a broken bag?
She didn’t even glance at him in the car.
Uncle Ford was getting anxious.
It’s about to rain, if they don’t let Annelise in the car, she’ll get soaked.
Young Master clearly wants Miss Winter to get in the car, why isn’t he saying anything?
A sharp screech.
A red Maserati raced like lightning in the autumn rain, speeding to Annelise’s front.
"Annelise, why are you here alone in the pouring rain?"
Lucas Lowell opened the car door, holding an umbrella to shield Annelise from the rain.
Annelise glanced at Elias Warner, then at Lucas Lowell.
In such a heavy rain, he could just watch her stand in the downpour, apparently he really hates her.
Besides, she was having her period today.
"Annelise, what are you thinking? Hurry and get in the car, I’ll take you ho!"
Lucas Lowell saw Annelise standing dazed, frowned and urged her.
Annelise ca back to her senses and followed Lucas Lowell into the car.
Lucas Lowell stepped on the gas and sped off.
Leaving Elias Warner’s car stalled in the pouring rain.
"Young Master, why... why didn’t you call Miss Winter to get in the car? You obviously..."
"She’s not worthy!" Elias Warner interrupted Uncle Ford.
"But Young Master..."
Young Master said he ca to deliver Miss Winter’s bag, but in truth, he was worried about her getting drenched in the rain.
But even when the car reached her, he just watched as soone else took Miss Winter away.
"I said drive!" Elias Warner, gripping his fist in anger.
Lucas Lowell had already taken Annelise to her previous apartnt.
Though it was only a few square ters, it was the place that helped her through tough tis.
"Annelise, you should co ho with . This place isn’t fit for anyone to live!"
Lucas Lowell was shocked looking at where Annelise lived.
As a descendant of a wealthy family, he had never been to such a shabby place.
Annelise smiled slightly, "Young Master Lowell, you’ve probably never been to a place like this. Sorry for tainting your eyes."
"No...no, I didn’t an that, I..." Lucas Lowell realized he misspoke.
Annelise smiled gently, "No worries, I understand, Young Master Lowell, thank you for bringing ho!"
Annelise turned and left.
Lucas Lowell stood there regretfully.
Clearly caring for her, how did his words end up hurting her?
Lucas Lowell sighed at the rundown apartnt.
Annelise stumbled back to the villa.
Soaked by the rain, her period pains were even worse.
She entered the bathroom, turned on the faucet, letting warm water flow down her body.
Looking at the marks left by Elias Warner on her body.
All his kiss marks, impossible to wipe away.
Annelise’s mind was filled with scenes of Elias Warner in the car, showing no regard for her.
Her eyes welled up with tears, but luckily, it was over between her and Elias Warner.
Now she wouldn’t have to owe him anymore.
Lowell Family
Sylvia Lowell was still agitated over the airport incident.
She paid a high price to invite those reporters, causing Elias Warner to get emotional, almost lose control because of Annelise.
Buzzz... buzzz...
"Sylvia, I’ve investigated what you asked, today, Annelise and Elias Warner both went to Lethe Bar, and..."
"And what?"
"And Annelise took Elias Warner ho, on the way, she bought stomach dicine and condoms!"
Condoms?
Sylvia Lowell clenched her phone tightly.
Her teeth itching with anger.
Why!
Why was it that even though she drugged Elias Warner, he wouldn’t touch her?
Although Elias Warner was drinking heavily and had stomach bleeding, he was still entangled with Annelise?
"Sylvia, are you listening?"
"Sylvia... hello..."
"What else did they do!" Sylvia Lowell’s voice rose.
"They, they seed to be in the car..."
"It seems like they did sothing here!" Although Sylvia had already guessed internally, she still wanted to know the details.
"Sylvia, it’s that kind of thing. I was too far away to see clearly!"
"Alright, I’ll transfer the money to your card. Keep an eye on them for !"
"Yes!"
Sylvia took a deep breath.
"Annelise, you promised that you wouldn’t involve yourself with Elias anymore. Since you can’t keep your word, don’t bla for being ruthless!"
Sylvia’s eyes were filled with cold light.
Chase had already said face to face at The Airline, Luna isn’t his and Annelise’s child. Sylvia had already sent soone to investigate Annelise’s whereabouts abroad over the past few years.
She imdiately called her contact in Breslin.
"How’s the investigation I asked you to do going?"
"I’ve found out. The Annelise you asked to investigate does have records of childbirth from five years ago. However, it was at a small clinic in Breslin."
"Are there records?"
"Yes, the birth conditions of the child at the ti, height, weight, all clearly recorded!"
"Great, then send all of these to !"
"Yes, Sylvie!"
Very quickly, Sylvia’s phone displayed all the records of Annelise giving birth at the clinic in Breslin years ago, from entering the delivery room to the baby’s birth weight, everything was clear.
Sylvia was so angry she felt like vomiting.
She slamd her phone on the ground fiercely.
"Annelise, you actually had Elias’ child!"
She had to take action.
She imdiately called Renee.
It’s already ten o’clock at night.
At the old house
Renee was having her face cared for by a beautician she paid a high price for.
Then heard the phone ringing.
The beautician handed the phone to Renee.
"Hello, Sylvie, why are you calling so late?"
Renee had a very favorable attitude towards Sylvia, she internally considered her as a daughter-in-law, far superior to Annelise.
"Ms. Perry, there’s sothing I’ve been contemplating for a long ti and feel I must tell you!"
"What is it? You don’t have to be so reserved with , just say whatever it is!"
"I’ve thought about this for a long ti, but I feel I must say it for the sake of the Warner family’s reputation!"
"What is it? Is it sothing that rascal Elias did that’s damaging the family’s reputation again?"
"No, it’s Annelise. Five years ago, in Breslin, she gave birth to a baby girl. This child seems to be Elias’!"
"What? What did you say?" Renee sat up from the massage bed, surprised.
The mood for the massage vanished instantly.
"What I said is true, Ms. Perry. If you don’t believe , you can go to Elias’ villa to have a look. The child looks remarkably like Elias. I saw it at Elias’ villa!"
Sylvia curved her lips into a smile.
Renee would certainly not allow Annelise to have Elias’ child.
She eagerly anticipated what the notoriously ruthless Mrs. Warner would do this ti.
"Everything you said is true? Fine, I will send soone to investigate right now. If it’s true, I won’t let Annelise off!"
Renee hung up the phone, got dressed, and walked out the door.
Arthur saw Renee leaving the house in a rush and quickly asked, "Where are you going? It’s late, shouldn’t you let people sleep?"
"You go to sleep first, I have sothing I need to handle, don’t stop !"
Renee replied angrily, turning to leave.
"What’s so urgent? It’s already ten o’clock, what needs to be handled right now?"
"It’s your goddaughter and your son’s issue!"
Renee didn’t elaborate, just instructed Uncle Zeller to drive her away.
Arthur sighed.
Uncle Zeller quickly drove to Elias’ villa.
Knocking on the door, Uncle Ford opened it.
"Madam, why are you at the villa so late? Looking for the young master?"
"Where is Elias? I have sothing to ask him. Also, is there a little girl in the house?"
Renee’s words shocked Uncle Ford.
He had always kept the matter of housing Luna in the house confidential from outsiders.
After all, surrounded by rumors about the young master’s identity wasn’t a good thing.
"Yes... there was a little girl the young master saved on a flight to Breslin! Madam, why are you suddenly asking this?"
Uncle Ford didn’t hide anything.
"Really? Are you sure what you are telling is the truth? If I find out you’re lying, prepare for retirent!"
Renee hung up the phone.
Though Uncle Ford was part of the Warner Group, he followed Elias from childhood, obeying only Elias’ orders.
Uncle Ford did not respond.
Renee stord into the villa, searched thoroughly.
After a long search, she didn’t find the little girl Sylvia ntioned.
"Uncle Ford, where is that little girl you ntioned?"
"Madam, the child has been taken back by her family!"
Uncle Ford frowned, wondering who told Renee about the child.
He had instructed the staff not to gossip, and not to ntion it when returning to the old house.
"Family?"
Renee was stunned.
Wasn’t the child supposed to be Elias’? How could there be a family?
"Yes, it was the girl’s grandmother!"
Uncle Ford ntioned Mrs. Lockwood.
Renee felt more at ease upon hearing this.
Thus, her internal anger slightly subsided.
"Uncle Zeller, send soone to investigate this little girl’s background!"
"Yes, Madam!"
