Even though she was in the dark about her brother’s heart donation back then, if Connor hadn’t agreed to it, Jared
wouldn’t be where he was today.
Ellen took out her phone and dialed Connor’s number, which was saved on her phone. “Hello?” On the other end of
the line, Connor picked up and spoke in an exhausted tone.
“It’s me, Uncle Connor,” Ellen said. “Ellie, is it really you? Please don’t hide anymore, I want to meet you!” Connor
said in al pleading and emotional voice. “Okay, I’ll go to you. Tell me your address,” Ellen said.
“Alright. Ellie, you’re willing to come to my home, yes? Okay, I’ll send you the address right now. I’ll always be
waiting for you at home, Ellie. I’ll be waiting, so you have to come.”
“I’ll probably be there in the afternoon.” “Of course. I’ll be waiting.” Connor still didn’t want to hang up after saying
that, so Ellen ended the call instead.
Ellen had just let out a sigh when she suddenly sensed someone behind her. Startled, she turned to see the man

my uncle.”
Jared had also received a call from Stanley: when he was in the living room just now. He had also watched the video
of Connor looking for Ellen all over the internet. He had to admit that Connor’s method was extremely effective, for
it took advantage of Ellen’s kindness and sympathy.
He also predicted that Ellen would soften her heart, but he wasn’t surprised or angry about it. He knew that Ellen
and Connor’s family back then were entirely different beings; Ellen had kindness permeating from the very core of
her being.
“I’ll go with you.” If you’re busy, I can go by myself.” Ellen didn’t like the idea very much. “I have time!” Jared
insisted. How could he let her face that family alone? He wanted to be with her and serve as a shield she could rely
on.
At the Aguirre Residence, Olivia had just returned from grocery shopping when Connor told her the good news.
However, there wasn’t even a smile on Olivia’s face, for her heart was filled with pain and hatred.
Whenever she saw Connor, she felt disgusted as if she were looking at a fly. “We can definitely save Lena.” Connor
was still insistent on getting Olivia’s forgiveness, for he still wanted to spend his life with her.
Aida was treating him worse as time went by, and she even used their son to threaten him for more money, saying
that he wouldn’t get to see him if he didn’t pay up. Soon, Connor’s money had all gone into Aida’s pocket.
He was getting poorer by the day, and he was already in thousands of debt. “Hmph! I don’t believe that b*tch would
let Lena off the hook that easily.” Olivia wished she could just use her most vicious insults on Ellen.
“Oli, don’t talk about Ellie like that. She didn’t do anything wrong; Lena’s the one at fault.” Connor couldn’t help but
speak up for Ellen.
“What did Lena do wrong? Ellen ruined our family; does she feel good about that?” Recently, as if possessed, Olivia
kept dreaming. of their former days. Back then, they didn’t have to worry about their necessities and could just
enjoy their lives in material wealth.

the span of one year. All her hatred had to be channeled toward someone, and she believed Ellen was the cause of
all this.
“If we had given some money to Ellen and Aunt Jessica back then, she wouldn’t have treated us like this. Every time
I wanted to do so, you’d stop me and start arguing with me. Now, no. matter what our days are like, we were the
ones who caused them.” Connor deeply regretted not insisting on his own ways. He had lost his. compassionate self
when he became rich.
Even if Olivia regretted anything, she refused to admit it. In truth, she knew that she could’ve won Ellen’s heart in
exchange for a small amount of money, but now that Ellen had gotten independent, it was too late.
‘Connor, if you hadn’t secretly arranged for Ellen to join the Presgrave Group, she wouldn’t have had the chance to
encounter Mr. Presgrave. Then, she would never know about her brother’s heart being donated.” Olivia was
blaming it all on Connor now.
Connor closed his eyes. He felt that this was destiny, and the heavens were punishing them for being selfish and
cold-hearted.
