The probing gaze fell on Annelise Winter’s face, and Renee Perry’s eyes were filled with prejudice and mockery towards Annelise.
With this attitude and Renee’s expression, it’s easy to guess what she’s implying.
Annelise was already used to it.
"No!"
Annelise denied directly, not a blush on her face or a flutter in her heart.
"Madam, when I went to Breslin, I indeed had this whimsical idea of causing a stir like I did five years ago, but I didn’t expect him to hate so much! I couldn’t even get to see him!"
"After this, I truly ca to terms with reality, so don’t worry, I won’t have any inappropriate thoughts towards him in the future."
Annelise rarely spoke to others in such sharp words and loud volu.
But facing Renee’s malicious speculation, she simply couldn’t control herself.
Renee said she didn’t care, but Annelise didn’t want Elias Warner to be defad because of her.
Hearing Annelise’s attitude towards her, Renee got really angry, unable to maintain her usual elegant image.
"Do you think I’ll believe what you said? Elias was willing to use a private jet to fly you over, do you think I’ll believe he didn’t see you? How could he not see you?!"
"No, madam, even if you ask a hundred tis, my answer is the sa, no! Didn’t you also tell he already has a fiancée he wants to marry? If you don’t even trust him, why not let him co over and we can confront each other together!"
Annelise responded firmly.
Already fuming, Renee was rendered speechless by Annelise’s retort, unable to swallow her anger.
Renee coldly snorted, "Fine! I’m really surprised, even you dare to threaten ? Then I’ll give you a chance to completely lose hope and see reality clearly!"
But just as she was about to speak, the next second, the car door opened.
A tall and upright figure got into the car.
Even in an extended Rolls-Royce, the appearance of Elias Warner instantly filled the space with a strong sense of oppression.
There was no ti to take off his captain’s uniform.
An overcoat was draped over his arm, revealing his strong and muscular forearms.
His long legs in uniform pants stepped into the car, the well-defined side of his face glinting in the dim light.
It was at a level that would make anyone’s heart race, no matter how many tis they looked.
Annelise’s palm tightened suddenly.
Through the rearview mirror, she suddenly t the man’s deep, obscure eyes.
The sweat in her palm seed to seep into her heart.
Annelise turned her face away.
"Oh, look who’s here? Isn’t this my handso son Elias? Let mom have a good look at you!"
Renee opened her arms towards Elias Warner, and Elias politely returned the brief hug.
Releasing Elias, Renee looked at her son’s face with concern, "Not seen you for a few days, my son looks thinner, is the captain’s job too tiring?"
"No, it’s nothing."
Elias distanced himself imperceptibly from Renee, speaking lightly.
"That’s good!" Renee snuck a glance at the front, "Elias, you know Annelise also went to Breslin, right? I just found out, she was actually on the flight you piloted! The two of you siblings must have t, right? Annelise said she was grateful for your care during the journey, and wanted to invite us for a al to show her thanks."
Annelise didn’t know what Renee was planning, and she frowned uncomfortably.
Elias lounged lazily against the backrest, eyes closed for rest; upon hearing, he lazily opened his eyes.
"Is that so? She’s inviting for a al?"
In a tone of disbelief, Elias’s gaze subtly glanced at the front seat, "Mom, if she invites you for a al, I have no reason to stop it, but inviting isn’t necessary!"
Elias’s refusal was particularly decisive.
But hearing this attitude, Renee knew he was deliberately avoiding suspicion.
However, she still maintained her image as a kind and generous mother.
Renee said, "Elias, don’t be like this, it’s Annelise’s heartfelt intention."
"Besides, one can’t always live in the past. Whatever misunderstandings or relationships you and Annelise had before, it was all because you were young and ignorant. Now that Annelise is mom’s goddaughter, you two are nominally siblings, shouldn’t you get along well?"
In front of her own son, Renee demonstrated exceptional generosity.
"How about this, let host! After the al, you two forget the past, and when eting in the future, you’ll be siblings, how about that?" Renee was forcing them to reunite.
The Warner Family values reputation highly.
Especially since Elias Warner’s father is an important figure.
No scandal can be allowed to co out about the Warner Family.
Therefore, a brother and a sister being together is absolutely impossible.
Even without a blood relation.
So she didn’t care about a single al, what she wanted was for Annelise and Elias Warner to have no chance of reconciling!
However, unexpectedly.
Elias Warner directly refused, "Not interested, I have sothing to do, I’m leaving first."
Renee’s heart rang alarm bells, grabbing her about-to-leave son’s hand, she leaned in, lowering her voice with deep aning, asking, "What? Do you still like Annelise now?"
Renee firmly gripped her son’s wrist, refusing to let go, "Tell mom, are you refusing to go for a al, refusing to acknowledge her as mom’s goddaughter, because you still have inappropriate thoughts about Annelise?"
She spoke these words with a smile, but her gaze was as cold as a knife.
Sitting in the front seat, how could Annelise not hear Renee’s words at this mont!
Her entire heart was in her throat.
She wanted to hear Elias Warner’s answer too.
Elias Warner’s actions paused, his dark gaze fell on Renee’s face.
His noble and cold deanor made the surrounding air chill a few degrees,
Seeing his face suddenly sinking, Renee knew she had touched her son’s bottom line, her heart thumped and quickly she said, "Mom is just afraid you haven’t let go of the past, otherwise why wouldn’t you go to the al?"
Elias Warner shook off Renee’s hand, his voice cold as ice.
"Do you think I have free ti?"
As he spoke, Elias Warner casually draped his removed coat over his arm, his eyes covertly glanced at the passenger seat, then opened the car door.
"Alright, I’m very tired, going ho to sleep."
As Elias Warner spoke and was about to leave, Renee got anxious.
"Wait, you can’t leave!"
