Chapter 306
Eleanor sensed he had hidden meanings, like he was trying to hint at something.
But she didn’t want to poke further, knowing Ethan wouldn’t spill the beans anyway
Ethan really didn’t plan on spilling more to her, he simply reminded her and stood up straight, walked
away
Watching the luxury car speed away. Eleanor felt a bit of relief.
Though she knew Ethan would be back, at least for now she could enjoy a breather.
However, thinking about the three billion, her just–relaxed body tensed up again.
As she sat there in a daze, Hailey rang her up, asking why she hadn’t arrived yet.
Eleanor shook off her thoughts, said “I’m on my way” and drove off to Hailey’s villa.
Worried that Eleanor hadn’t eaten lunch, Hailey prepared a feast in the garden.
Seeing Eleanor get out of the car from a distance, she quickly called her over, “Eleanor, come grab a

Seeing the cheerful Hailey, Eleanor felt a bit more relaxed. She smiled and walked towards her.
Hailey pulled out a chair for her. After she sat down, Hailey poured her a bowl of soup. “You need to eat
more, you’re too skinny”
She thought Eleanor had a great figure, but a bit on the skinny side. She used to be sick and couldn’t
eat much: Now that she had recovered, she should eat more.
Eleanor’s heart felt warm, “Alright, I’ll take your word for it.”
She said, and took a sip from the spoon. The soup slid down her throat, bringing tears to her eyes.
Her old wish was to stay with Hailey. Despite all she had been through, she never got to realize this
wish. Now she had her freedom, she could finally be with Hailey, but it might be a temporary freedom.
Seeing her welling up, Hailey thought something was wrong. Her face turned serious, “Eleanor, what’s
wrong?”
Eleanor shook her head, smiled and said, “Hailey, Ethan’s gone back to the G country.”
Hailey was first stunned, then showed a joyful smile, “He let you off the hook?”
Thinking about the agreement she signed, Eleanor’s face turned gloomy.
All of Ethan’s moves were premeditated. Even now with Ethan back in the G country and unable to
return, as long as the agreement was there, he wouldn’t let her off easily.
Being targeted by such a calculated man, she could hardly escape his grasp.
Seeing her silence, Hailey knew Ethan wouldn’t let her off just like that.
She frowned, thought for a few seconds, then suggested, “Eleanor, since he’s gone, we should take the
chance and make a run for it.”
As long as Eleanor could break free from Ethan, she would go anywhere, even if it was some remote
place.
Eleanor had considered running away, but…

She put down the spoon, said to Hailey, “There’s something I wanted to tell you yesterday, but didn’t
get the chance.”
Hailey asked curiously, “What is it?”
Eleanor looked at Hailey, said, “Hailey, Garett… he’s still alive.”
Hailey was sipping her soup, hearing this, the spoon slipped from her hand.
She looked at Eleanor in disbelief, “What, what did you just say?”
Eleanor told Hailey in detail how Garett was saved, then said to her, “I’ll take you to see him.”
Hailey was still in shock, seeing Eleanor stand up and help her up. She snapped back to reality,
followed her to the car in a flurry. Since Hailey was too frazzled to drive, Eleanor took the wheel. She
sat in the passenger seat, gripping the seatbelt tightly, completely stunned. Eleanor didn’t disturb her,
she drove quickly to the villa where Garett was. Coincidentally, Yilia was pushing Garett out for a stroll.
Hailey, who hadn’t gotten out of the car yet, saw the familiar figure in the wheelchair, and tears started
to fall.
She opened the car door, looked at the figure. Her eyes welled up, as she called out, “Garett…”
