Meanwhile, Olivia also realized it was too late for them to realize their mistakes, but

even so, she hadn't forgotten about her priority of saving. her daughter..

Later that afternoon, several cars that cfrom the shore pulled up outside

Connor's place, drawing the attention of all passersby with their conspicuous arrival.

Soon, Ellen stepped out of the car and she was in a white fur coat due to the winter.

On top of that, her rosy cheeks seemed like a perfect match with her outfit.

At the stime, her bodyguards quickly grabbed Jared's coat and put it on him.

While the black coat billowed with the blowing wind, Jared didn’t button it. Instead, he

wrapped it around the lady to keep her warm from the chilly breeze.

Soon, Ellen phoned her uncle since she didn’t know how to find him in the building.

Not long after that, a silhouette was seen running toward them as it turned out to be

Connor.

When he saw Jared there, he quickly greeted the boy and said, “Mr. Presgrave, |

didn’t expect you to visit. Anyway, my house is this way. Please follow me.”

“Mr. Aguirre, we'll talk in the car. It's cold outside.” Jared didn’t want to head to

Connor's place with Ellen.

While Connor seemed a little reluctant and embarrassed to talk to his niece in front of

Jared, Ellen decided to visit her uncle's place after a brief hesitation. “Where is your

home, Uncle Connor?”

“It's not far up ahead.” “I'll go with him. Just wait forin the car.” Ellen turned

around and looked at Jared. When she insisted, he eventually gave in and nodded in

agreement, watching her walk with Connor into an alley.

In the meantime, Connor seemed relieved without Jared's presence as he kept

criticizing Selena for what she did. “What Selena did was completely unacceptable!

How could she do something like that to you? | bet she hasn't learned her lesson

despite having spent a year and a half in prison. Alas, when will she ever learn from

her mistake?”

While Ellen remained silent, Connor went on to praise her, saying, “I'm happy and

proud of you for winning the chess competition, Ellie. | didn’t think you had such a

remarkable talent for playing chess. Your parents would be so proud of you if they

knew about it.”

“How have you been lately, Uncle Connor?’ Ellen asked Connor caringly. “I'm fine, |

guess. Nothing much. My life has never really changed much at all, and | have

nothing to complain about. Connor tried to act tough.

However, Ellen knew that was not the case, noticing several embroidered patches on

Connor's coat. Furthermore, the fact that Connor was living in a low-end residential

area gave him away. “There is no elevator here. Just stairs. My unit is on the fifth

floor,” he said.

After Ellen followed Connor to the fifth floor, the man opened the door and invited her

in. Since Ellen grew up among the poor, she didn’t find the environment she was in

surprising. “Cand sit here, Ellie.” Connor grabbed a cleaner chair and told her to

sit on it.

At that moment, Olivia opened the door roughly and glared at Ellen hatefully. When

she saw Ellen’s decent outfit and her fair skin, she couldn't help but begrudgingly think

that Ellen seemed like a daughter from a rich family indeed. However, the thought of

that was what precisely stung her like a blade put through her heart.

How ironic! A few years ago, Ellen was a poor kid who struggled even to feed herself;

today, she presented herself just like a socialite, much to Olivia's surprise and

dismay..
