At the Aguirre Residence, the family was looking bitter. Connor had just shamelessly. contacted Benjamin, wanting to know if Jared intended to give him some money. However, Benjamin's attitude took a turn, and he asked Connor to wait for his news.
At that moment, Connor was walking around the room anxiously. When he thought about his future life, he was filled with sorrow.
Meanwhile, Selena shared the same worry as she initially thought her father could get some compensation. Now that Jared found out the truth, there was no way he would not return the saving grace to Ellen!
Nonetheless, she was good at scheming and succeeded at sowing discord between the couple. Otherwise, he would have spoiled Ellen to the extreme!
âMr. Presgrave is such an ungrateful man! Doesnât he know the person who suggested. signing the papers to save his life? It was me. | was the one who asked your dad to sign the papers. Would he have survived if it werenât for my insistence?â
âReally? Selena felt like that was the best. decision her mom had ever made. She would not have enjoyed such a good life had it not been for her mom's decision.
âOf course. Your dad was even reluctant to sign the papers, so itâs naturally because of me.â âMom, you're so kind!â
âDo you know why | agreed so quickly? Kevin was about to get unplugged anyway, and | saw those people wearing expensive clothes, so | assumed they had to be rich. Thatâs why | did that! Since theyâre rich, they would certainly pay us heftily if we donated Kevinâs heart.â Everything Olivia did was for profit.
â| told you we shouldnât have lied to him. We should've told him that Kevin is Ellenâs older brother because if we did, he wouldn't think that we lied to him. | canât even bear to go outside now.â Connor glared at her.
âNo one made you do it. | was just giving my suggestion, and you're the one who took it. seriously. She refused to admit her mistakes. âYou're... You're a doom.â
âlm a doom? Would you have decided to sign the papers without this âdoomâ right here?â
When Connor heard that, he was immediately enraged. âHad we pushed that matter back at little, perhaps we would've gotten more money. from the Presgraves!â
Stunned, Olivia realized that her husband was right. At that time, Kevinâs heart was Jaredâs only hope! Maybe we could have gotten a better deal! Gosh, was | too eager?
âH-How would | have known that they were the richest family in the city?â She pouted.
On the side-lines, Selena grew frustrated while watching her parents argue, so she brought her phone back to her room. After closing the door, she wondered about Ellen and Jaredâs current status, prompting her to call her enemy.
Ellen had just finished her shower when her phone rang. When she saw it was a call from Selena, she hesitated before answering, âHey.â
âEllie, it's me. How are you? Donât you think of doing anything reckless!â
âI'm fine.â âHowâs your relationship with Mr. Presgrave? Do you hate him?â Selena probed. The frowning Ellen remained silent.
Selena eagerly added, âEllie, weâre your only family. If youâre down, you can always come by and stay at our house. We can help you get through this.â
Faced with Selenaâs sudden enthusiasm, Ellen finally recalled what Connor and his family had been doing all these years. She had been too preoccupied with the matter of Kevin's heart, so Selenaâs fake kindness triggered her realization of how selfish and greedy their family was.
