Chapter 1783 Ellen Reiss
“Ellie should be back soon, and she’s probably on her way. She had to change her shifts to make it here today,”
Jessica Aguirre said. She was the elderly woman who had adopted Ellen Reiss.
When Ellen’s name was mentioned, Selena’s head shot up, and a flash of superiority lit up her eyes. She had
nothing better to do and was curious to see what Ellen, whom she had once despised, had become.
Selena despised Ellen because her family had fostered Ellen and her brother for a year when they were young.
Despite her young age, Selena never overcame her animosity toward Ellen, especially after she realized Ellen had a
beautiful doll that she had always wanted. However, Ellen never gave it to her, and Selena hid it, which resulted in
her father spanking her. Although her only recollection of Ellen was from their childhood, the vengeful nature of her
character meant that she would not let the memories fade. She was relieved that Ellen’s brother had died of illness
because otherwise, she would despise them even more.

Olivia turned to ask Jessica, “What has Ellie been up to recently?”
“She currently works part-time at a cafe. Moreover, she recently graduated but has yet to find a suitable job.” A
worried look crossed Jessica’s face as she answered.
Selena snickered when she heard that. So, she’s working part-time in a cafe, huh? I was hoping she’d do better
than that!
After the newlyweds made their grand entrance, the guests were treated to a few toasts before being seated for
the meal. At the same time, a young lady hopped off a bus that had pulled up to the bus station near the hotel,
checked the time, and ran to the hotel. Although she was still dressed in her waitress uniform, she managed to
exude a cool demeanor despite the sweltering heat. The breeze blew her bangs and highlighted her attractive face.
Slightly out of breath, she entered the elevator and soon arrived in the hall. She looked around for a seat, but an
elder ushered her to a seat with the directors. With a bright grin, Ellen made her way to her seat while attracting
the attention of several young men as she passed by. She radiated an air of mystic authority that drew people to
her like moths to a flame. Then, she affectionately embraced Jessica before taking a seat beside her. Afterward,
Jessica began caring for her as though she were her own child, pouring her drinks and setting out her cutlery.
However, Selena’s attention was on Ellen as soon as she walked in, but Ellen still hadn’t noticed her. Selena couldn’t
help but feel superior at seeing Ellen in her cheap uniform.
A sudden thought prompted Jessica to pat Ellen on the shoulder and exclaim, “Ellie, Aunt Olivia and Selena are here
too.”
When Ellen turned around, she spotted Olivia and Selena, so she flashed them a bright smile and greeted them as if
they were strangers.
“Aunt Olivia and Selena, it’s been a while.”
Olivia pretended to greet her amiably. “It’s been a while. Come by whenever you have time!”
She felt she had no choice but to put on an air of seniority in social situations. Moreover, she had never cared about

Olivia once broached the subject of providing Ellen’s living expenses with her husband. Still, she abandoned the plan
six months after learning that Jessica’s monthly pension of three thousand was sufficient to support Ellen.
Nevertheless, every time Jessica saw them, she never failed to thank them for offering them living expenses for six
months. Furthermore, she would bring it up to everyone she knew.
“Sure!” Ellen replied with a smile. Still, she did not dare go to her uncle’s house because it was much too lavish for
her, and she feared she would be subjected to undue pressure if she did.
“This is Selena,” Olivia proudly introduced her daughter to Ellen as a way of bragging. Ellen and her daughter were
roughly the same age, but Ellen was still struggling at the base of the pyramid, while her daughter had a bright
future ahead of her. She managed to fast-track to elite society with little effort.
Then, Selena glanced at Ellen while propping her chin in the palm of her right hand, and her eyes glowed with
surprise. She did not expect Ellen to become a beautiful young lady because of Ellen’s scrawny and malnourished
appearance as a child. However, given Ellen’s inherent beauty, minimal makeup would suffice to transform her into
a stunning woman.
