My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1861
Night of Destiny
Chapter 1861
âApologize, you brat! Didnât you hear what my mom said?â Selenaâs voice rang on the other end.
Obviously, they were putting the phone call on speaker.
Ellen took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Then, she said calmly to the other end of the line, âIâll
never apologize to you for this.â With that, she hung up right away. Her heart was heavy, and it pained
her a lot, but she knew that she didnât do anything wrong and thus didnât have to apologize to anyone.
Selena let out a snort in anger when the phone call ended. âMom, she hung up on us.â
Olivia was stunned, too. She had thought that once she threatened to sever all relations with Ellen, the
latter would immediately be scared into apologizing in order to maintain her relationship with the only
relatives she had left. However, little did she think Ellen would have the nerve to hang up on her
instead. âThis little brat has got some nerve, huh?â She was angry as well. âLetâs see whoâs gonna care
about her when I no longer speak for her in the family.â
Just then, Connor came back.
The instant Selena saw him, she went up to him angrily, asking, âDad, why did you get Ellen into the
Presgrave Group? Do you know how she bullied your daughter?â
âWerenât you staying at Ellenâs place? Why did you come back?â Connor asked curiously.
Olivia chimed in angrily, âHow could you still be in the mood to ask about this? Your daughter got pulled
by the hair and beaten up by Ellen today!â
âWhy would Ellen hit you?â Connor was puzzled. How could Ellen possibly hit someone with her
submissive temperament?
âIt was just because I accidentally smashed an ornament at her house. She pulled me by the hair and
hit me without hesitation! My scalp still hurts right now, you know,â Selena lied, not at all looking guilty.
Knowing what kind of a person Selena was, Connor knew Ellen mustâve hit her because she had gone
too far. âOkay, donât stay at Ellenâs place anymore. Just stay home with us.â
Seeing that he wouldnât stick up for her, Selena went upstairs angrily to sulk.
Olivia dragged Connor into the small living room on the first floor. Then, she closed the door, saying,
âConnor, we have to watch out for Ellen.â
âWhy?â Connor asked in puzzlement.
Olivia replied, âLena said Young Master Jared is in love with Ellen, so perhaps Ellen will learn about his
heart replacement one day. Wonât we be finished when she asks us about it?â
Connor was startled; little did he expect that Ellen and Jared had become so close. âWhy would Young
Master Jared fall in love with Ellen?â he asked in surprise. He couldnât understand why Jared would
love a commoner like Ellen. After all, the Presgraves were the number-one family of business tycoons
in the country.
âIn short, Lena heard from Young Master Jared himself that he loves Ellen and wants to court her. Say,
Connor, do you think there are supernatural events on earth? Young Master Jaredâs current heart
belonged to Ellenâs brother. Could the late Kevin have helped her without us knowing?â Olivia said as a
hint of unease and panic flitted across her face.
Connor didnât believe in supernatural events, though. He quickly shot a glare at his wife, saying, âWhat
nonsense are you talking about? How could such a weird thing exist in the world?â
Olivia replied, âIâm just saying! If not, why would Young Master Jared fall in love with Ellen? What is it
about Lena that makes her inferior to Ellen? Why does he love Ellen instead of Lena?â She simply
couldnât wrap her head around this My daughter wouldnât lose to Ellen in terms of looks and deportment
Could Young Master Jared be blind?
Connor was worried as well, but he thought nothing would happen between Ellen and Jared. As a man,
he understood that Jared would end up marrying a lady who matched his wealth and social status.
âDonât worry too much about it. Only we know about Kevinâs heart donation back then, so Ellen wonât
ask about it.â
âWhat if Ellen learns about this one day?â
âIf she learns about it, weâll give her 20 million as compensation. Iâll brace myself and talk to her about it
by then.â Connor had already come up with a way out of this. And besides, Ellen was his niece, which
would make these things even easier to discuss. Surely my niece wonât turn against me.
