NovelEnglishChapter 215 Chapter 215 * 100% The ride-share car slowly pulled up in front of them. Ellie caught sight of Alex's frozen steps from the corner of her eye, a mocking smile forming on her lips.
Opening the car door, she got in, casually slipping off her suit jacket.
Alex clenched his phone tightly, staring intently at the jacket Ellie had thrown aside, feeling like he could barely breathe from the weight in his chest.

Late at night at the Owens residence.
Evelyn said, "We've been waiting at the hospital for so long and Alex still hasn't come. What's his deal?" Evelyn was pacing restlessly in the living room. "You're engaged to him yet he won't help us out. You're not even broken up, and he left you at the hospital and just walked away-does that make sense?" With a troubled look, Haley stood in the living room and handed the necklace to Evelyn. "Mom, just let it go. Keep this necklace safe, and don't bring it out again from now on!" Logan ended the call and cover. He said, "Who exactly is this Aaron? I've used up all my connections and spent so much money, yet I can't do anything about his job, not even transfer him.
"Haley, you've been with him for more than three years, and do you really not know his background?" Hearing her father mention Aaron's background, Haley scoffed, "Dad, his family has a father with a limp, a mother who can't read, and Ellie who's living with the Warrens. What kind of background could he possibly have?" Logan replied, "I've spent a lot of money on information that says Aaron's success today is because someone high up in the military is secretly supporting him!" "No way!" Without even thinking, Haley immediately dismissed it.
She said, "Aaron's grandfather and uncle served in the military, but they're both gone. His father retired from the army and lives in the countryside. The Thompson family lives alone in the village and couldn't possibly know anyone from the military!" If that were really the case, the siblings wouldn't need to rely on financial help from the Warren family just to afford school.
At that moment, Haley's mother suddenly said, "Haley, since Alex doesn't really like you and only got engaged because you took Ellie's necklace and he mistook you for her, why don't you just go back to Aaron? As long as Aaron can save your brother, we won't stop you from being with him anymore." Haley hesitated as she looked at her parents. "Mom, it's impossible for Aaron and me!" Logan said, "Alex is known for being wild. If he figures out that the necklace belongs to Aaron's sister, you're lucky if he doesn't make your life difficult.
"Since Aaron has connections, his path is likely to be smooth. Call Aaron and see where he stands; if he still has feelings for you, take advantage to negotiate. As long as he agrees to help Ethan, we can agree to him joining the Owens family." Haley slumped on the couch, hearing her parents' advice echo in her ears.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlex was using Ethan's case to pressure her into breaking up he couldn't wait to end things with her. If Aaron really had support in the military, he was bound to succeed.
After more than three years with Aaron, she couldn't believe he'd get over her so quickly. After a brief hesitation, Haley picked up her phone and called Aaron.
When the call connected, Haley was clearly excited. She just knew Aaron couldn't let her go. "Aaron, I need to talk to you. How about we meet up?" = 11 AD
