Chapter 497
Sitting on the yoga mat in the living room, Hailey wipes the sweat off her forehead with a towel and
asks Eleanor, “Who’s that guy?”
Hailey hadn’t seen Tyler before, so she had no idea who he was Eleanor explained, “He’s Liana’s
brother
She remembered Liana mentioning that although Tyler was technically her brother, they weren’t
actually related by blood, and their relationship was pretty complicated.
Hailey eyed Eleanor nervously, “Is Liana’s brother into you or something?”
Coming to find Eleanor late at night, it was obvious he was up to something. If Bernard found out, Tyler
would probably be screwed.
Eleanor laughed and took the milk from the maid, handing it to Hailey, “Tyler’s Liana’s boyfriend. Don’t
overthink it.”
Hailey, who had just taken a sip of milk, almost choked, ‘Cough, cough, cough! What’s going on?!”

After teasing Hailey, Eleanor laughed and walked out of the villa.
“Dr. Howell, what brings you here so late?”
Tyler, who was smoking, saw her coming out, broke the cigarette in his hand and threw it in the trash.
“Is Liana here?”
Liana didn’t have many friends, and the only ones she was close to were Eleanor and Hailey.
Tyler had been looking for Liana for nearly half a month, and since he couldn’t find her, he had no
choice but to swallow his pride and come to
Eleanor.
Eleanor shook her head, “She’s not here.”
A look of anxiety appeared on Tyler’s handsome face, “Do you know where she went?”
Eleanor looked puzzled at Tyler, “Liana’s at an international conference, didn’t you know?”
Tyler’s face turned pale, “The conference ended early, but she and Dr. Webb didn’t come back.”
Eleanor didn’t know how to respond to this, so she just stared blankly at Tyler.
Under the dim streetlight, Tyler stood in front of Eleanor for a long time. Finally, without saying
anything, he turned and left.
Eleanor watched his retreating figure and called out, “Dr. Howell…”
Tyler opened the car door, didn’t look back, but stopped in his tracks…
Facing the moonlight and the cool breeze in May, he said with red eyes, “You women, do you all like to
seduce men and then abandon them without hesitation?”
Eleanor wanted to explain on behalf of Liana, but Tyler had already gotten in the car, closed the door,
and quickly drove away.
The day Liana came back, Eleanor had just finished taking her medication. Liana seemed to have
timed it perfectly, showing up with the medicine at this exact moment.
Eleanor was sitting in the garden, arranging flowers in a vase while talking on the phone with Bernard,
who was in W City.
“Eleanor.”
Hearing Liana’s voice, Eleanor quickly turned around and saw the s***y and charming Liana in a red

“Liana, you’re back?”
Liana walked up to Eleanor with a smile and picked up the medicine box in her hand, shaking it, “I
brought you your medicine.”
Eleanor said “thank you” before telling her, “Liana, Tyler’s been looking for you everywhere. Have you
seen him?”
Liana’s cheerful expression disappeared when she heard Tyler’s name, “I don’t want to see him.”
Eleanor hesitated but didn’t ask Liana why. She just took the medicine box from her and placed it on
the small round table in the garden.
Liana and Tyler had always seemed close the few times in the past, but Liana apparently wasn’t happy
and seemed forced.
There must be some unspeakable history between them. Since Liana wasn’t talking, Eleanor wouldn’t
ask to avoid reopening her old wounds. Liana didn’t explain further, only changing the subject,
“Eleanor, after taking the medicine for half a month, you should be able to try with Mr. Laurence again.
Put it on the table, turn on the hands-free phone, Bernard’s voice suddenly came through the phone,
“Try what?”
