Chapter 1895
Night of Destiny
Ellen was taken aback. Did Lambert give me this bracelet as a gift? âTake it quickly. If you donât want it,
you can return it to Mr. Orey personally.â Selena said âYou took it, so you should be the one to return it,â
Ellen replied, not wanting to get involved. Besides, she wasnât close to Lambert.
Suddenly, Selena put a note and the bracelet on the table, then crossed her arms. Sneering, she said,
âAnyway, Mr. Oreyâs phone number and bracelet are here. You can return them yourself! If you donât
return them, he will think you accepted it.â
With that, Selena left. Ellen looked at the phone number and bracelet on the table, feeling a little
overwhelmed. Why is Lambert giving the bracelet to me?
She bit her lip. Maybe this was Selenaâs way of playing a prank on her. She knew Selena hadnât left, so
she turned and walked toward the door. Seeing that Ellen didnât fall for it, Selena came out from around
the corner where she was hiding before grabbing the bracelet and the note. In a moment of impulsivity,
she picked up her phone and dialed Lambertâs number.
At that moment, Lambert was working out at the club when he heard his phone ring. He was surprised
to see an unfamiliar number and answered, âHello? Whoâs this?â
âHello, Mr. Orey. Iâm Selena Aguirre. My cousin, Ellen Reiss, wants to meet you.â Lambert raised an
eyebrow. âEllen wants to meet me?â
Hearing his charismatic voice, Selena wished she could say she wanted to meet him herself. She
smiled sweetly and said, âYes, today is my fatherâs birthday. My cousin and I were chatting. and she
said she wants to meet you. The other day, she couldnât talk to you much because she was with
President Presgrave.â
âReally?â âYes! She told me she had a great first impression of you. Iâll send you her number, you can
chat with her if you have time!â Lambert was pleasantly surprised. âIs this really true?
âOf course, it is! Iâll send you Ellenâs number, but donât say it was me who gave it to you!â Selena said,
nervously hanging up the phone before sending Ellenâs number to Lambert.
Lambert soon received a message with a phone number. He wasnât one to dilly-dally, so he
immediately called the number. Meanwhile, Ellen had just left the hotel and was walking along a path
beside a small park when her phone rang. She saw that it was an unfamiliar number, so she thought for
a moment, then answered, âHello? Whoâs this?â
âIâm Lambert Orey, Miss Reiss. Nice to meet you.â Ellen was stunned. âHow did you get my number?â
âYour cousin gave it to me. Didnât you know?â Lambert replied, surprised.
Ellen now knew exactly what was going on in her heart. Selena deliberately arranged for her and
Lambert to meet, but she didnât know what
Selenaâs true intentions were. âIâm sorry, Mr. Orey. It must be a misunderstanding. My cousin was just
playing a prank on me,â Ellen explained.
âA prank? Why did she do that to you?â Ellen hesitated, not sure how to answer.
âUm, there is a personal grudge between us, Mr. Orey. Anyway, I wonât bother you-â Ellen tried to end
the conversation, but someone suddenly snatched her phone away.
âHey! My phone! Stop! Donât run! Give me back my phone!â Ellen didnât expect someone to steal her
phone in broad daylight.
Jared was the one who bought her that phone, so it was particularly precious to her. How could she let
someone just take it away like that? âStop, donât run!â Ellen shouted, chasing after the thief without
hesitation.
They were in a park, and the thief ran fast along the path, but he didnât expect that the girl whose
phone he stole would actually catch up to him.
Meanwhile, Lambert had just experienced a robbery through the phone. He had heard Ellen yelling
about her phone, and since he was still connected to her through the phone call, he could hear the
thiefâs footsteps. Then, he heard the thief pant, and soon, the thief muttered angrily, âDamn it! When will
she stop chasing after me?â
