My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1795
Night of Destiny
Chapter 1795 The Funeral
Ellen certainly did not turn her nose up at the clothes. Now that she had lost her job, she would need to
live frugally and save as much money as she could.
She had used up all her money to pay for the medical expenses, and Connor was the one who paid for
the remainder. All she had on hand was her salary of 450. She had just received it.
It was nearly 1.00AM. Ellen was sleeping when she was awoken by the noises coming from outside her
room. She got off the bed and cracked open the door to peep outside.
âMom, when is she leaving? I donât even feel like coming home anymore!â Selenaâs voice came from
the living room. âBe quiet. Donât let her hear you.â âWho cares if she hears me?â
âIâll ask her to leave tomorrow. Iâve already discussed this matter with your father. Weâll never take her
in.â Ellenâs face flushed deep red with humiliation. It turns out that Iâm unwelcomed here.
Early in the morning of the third day, Connor and his family headed to the cemetery with Ellen. The
funeral was handled by Lilac and her family, so Ellen would only need to attend the funeral as part of
the family.
Looking down at the urn that was being buried in the ground, Ellen felt her tears flowing down her
cheeks. The person she loved the most had left her.
Selena had always been a cold-hearted person ever since she was a child. Despite seeing how hard
Ellen was weeping, she felt nothing. In fact, she thought that the entire funeral was a complete waste of
her time.
At this moment, Connorâs eyes were reddened. Recalling how his aunt had helped him in the past, he
couldnât help feeling sad about her death.
On the other hand, Olivia had gone out of her way to dress up for this event. Although she was dressed
in black, she was decked in jewelry. Moreover, the jewelry that adorned her was very fancy.
Finally, Jessica was buried peacefully. From now onward, Ellen was all alone with nobody to lean on in
this world.
Lilac walked over and said, âConnor, what are your plans for Ellie? You canât expect her to be on her
own. Sheâs just a child.â
âWhat child? Sheâs already 22 years old,â Olivia immediately retorted. How dare you try to put the
responsibility of taking care of Ellen on us? I wonât let you succeed!
Unable to persuade Olivia, Lilac could only sigh heavily.
Connor replied, âAunt Lilac, Iâll definitely help Ellie.â
Olivia sneered coldly at those words. I wonât allow him to do that. Not only is Selena uncomfortable with
Ellenâs presence, but it is so inconvenient to have Ellen in the house. I used to be able to do whatever I
wanted in the past, but I have to accommodate her in everything I do now.
Ellen heard the conversation from nearby and walked over. âUncle Connor, Iâll move back home tonight.
I wonât disturb you any longer.â
âEllie, why are you moving back so suddenly? We have room for you.â Connor couldnât help asking.
âI want to keep vigil for Grandma. Iâm not scared. Grandma was everything to me,â she responded
bravely. She did not want to return to her uncleâs house and continue being a burden to them.
âYouâre right, Ellie. One must always repay the kindness one has received. Letâs heed her wishes and
allow her to go home to keep vigil!â Olivia immediately agreed. She did not know why she was feeling a
sense of guilt and fear at this moment. She also couldnât help feeling as though there was a chilly
presence behind her whenever she looked at Jessicaâs grave.
Connor was forced to agree with the arrangement. After the funeral, he sent Ellen back to her home.
Looking at the dilapidated village that she was living in, he took out the card that he used last time and
said, âThere is 15,000 in this card. Take it.â
âI canât, Uncle Connor. Thatâs your money. I canât take that.â
âJust take it!â
âNo, Uncle Connor. If Aunt Olivia learns about this, sheâll be very upset.â Ellen was a sensible child.
When Connor drove away from Ellenâs house, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and
immediately stopped his car by the side of the road. Then, he solemnly answered the phone call.
âHello, President Curtis.â
âMr. Aguirre, I believe you previously mentioned that your daughter would like to work at Presgrave
Group. Iâve already made the necessary arrangements. According to her education and experience,
weâve temporarily placed her in the position of a financial analyst. Are you satisfied with that
arrangement?â
âThank you. Iâm very satisfied with the arrangement, President Curtis. However, I would like to make
another request if possible. I have a niece who is very pretty and has just graduated from university
recently. Can I trouble you to arrange a position for her as well?â He swallowed his pride and asked.
