Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns
Chapter 260 Chapter 260 ས 84%à¾à½º In Clusia, at the Evans residence in Jorlandia, the household buzzed with preparations for the upcoming welcome home party scheduled for the next day.
With time pressing and aspirations for grandeur, every detail needed to be meticulously arranged within a single day, immersing the Evansâ home in a whirlwind of activity.
Elysia had barely settled into her room when her phone rang, displaying Avaâs name. A joyful smile instantly lit up her face as she eagerly pressed the answer button.
On the other end of the line, Avaâs voice carried a hint of hesitation. âElysia, have you been well recently?â
Iâve been doing great, how about you?â Elysia replied warmly.
âIâve been good too... Elysia, how are things at the Evans residence?â Ava inquired.
Upon hearing the mention of the Evans residence, Elysia raised an eyebrow, sensing something was amiss. She adopted a playful tone. âPretty good, is there something specific you want to know?â
âNot really...â Ava stammered.
âAre you hiding something from me?â Elysia teased.
Gathering her courage, Ava confessed, âElysia, um... Holden, my crush, reached out to me a few days ago and asked for your address. I gave it to him.â
Her voice trailed off as she said the last sentence, too low for Elysia to respond. Thinking Elysia was upset, Ava panicked.
âElysia, Iâm so sorry. I should have asked for your permission first, but I wasnât thinking clearly. Itâs entirely my fault, please blame my scatterbrained self.
âI just thought, since you and Holden are friends now, he should know. Later, I realized I was wrong. If you didnât tell him, what right did I have to?
âItâs all my fault. I promise to keep your secrets next time and never act so foolishly again. Elysia, please donât be angry with me, okay?â As Ava continued, her voice wavered with guilt.
From the moment Ava called, Elysia had guessed the issue but remained silent to observe Avaâs reaction. Seeing Avaâs distress, Elysia knew she had to speak up before Ava broke into tears. The thought of Avaâs tearâstreaked face pained her heart. âAva, Iâm not angry with you.â
Ava paused, sounding uncertain. âElysia, are you serious?â
âYes, Iâm serious,â Elysia assured her. A spark of light appeared in her eyes as she added, âActually, I should thank you.â
âThank me?â Ava sounded puzzled, unable to comprehend Elysiaâs words.
âYes, thank you. Thank you for helping us clear up the misunderstanding and showing me another side of them. It turns out I was never forgotten.â
âElysia, what do you mean by that?â Ava asked, and then quickly realized something. âElysia, have you reconciled with the Evans family?â
âYes, we have. Iâm at the Evans residence right now,â Elysia replied.
Avaâs voice, which had been low, suddenly rose with excitement. âDoes this mean I didnât do anything wrong?â
As soon as she said it, she contradicted herself. âNo, no, I still did something wrong. I should have asked for your permission 1/3 413)
Chapter 260 first, but luckily, it turned out well, which makes me feel so much better.â
âWhy are you happier than I am?â Elysia teased.
âOf course Iâm happy. Youâve finally found your family, so no one will bully you anymore,â Ava replied.
Elysia raised an eyebrow slightly, wondering what had given Ava such a misunderstanding.
Before she could ponder further, Avaâs voice came through the phone again, now much calmer. âElysia, even though I donât know how the Evans treat you, I hope you can be happy. But if someday theyâre not nice to you, then...â
âThen what?â Elysia prompted.
âThen just move out, Iâll support you,â Ava vowed.
Elysia chuckled. âHow are you going to support me?â
Ava whispered softly, âOh, right... I do need someone to look after me as well. Well... donât worry, Elysia, I may not be able to support you financially, but my family certainly can!â
âI appreciate your kindness, but I donât think Iâll ever need your support,â Elysia replied. Even if she were to leave the Evans residence, she would be perfectly fine. In fact, she wasnât planning on leaving at all; this was her home.
Ava finally grasped the situation, nodding in understanding. Not to mention, being the head of Arcanum House meant that Elysia likely didnât have to worry about basic necessities.
âAva, why donât you come and see how the Evans family treats me yourself?â Elysia suggested.
Ava raised an eyebrow, inquisitive. âWhat do you mean?â
âTomorrow is my welcome home party. You have to come,â Elysia insisted.
-Avaâs eyes sparkled with excitement. âOf course, Iâll definitely be there!â
After hanging up, Elysia called Elena and the Jackson family. Odalyn, still unsure of the situation, remained calm initially but became increasingly unsettled as she listened.
Odalyn exclaimed in her heart, âElysia is the Evans familyâs daughter in Jorlandia? The Evans family, from Jorlandia? We have actually adopted her as granddaughter!â
Berenger and Logan were equally shocked by the news.
Having not heard from them for a while, Elysia smiled before adopting a pitiful expression, âBerenger, Odalyn, are you going to abandon me just because Iâm from the Evans family?â
Odalynâs heart ached at the sound of her voice. âWhat kind of silly talk is that? How could we ever leave you? Weâre just... a bit overwhelmed.â
âHave you come to terms with it now?â Elysia asked.
âMaybe I need a bit more time to process,â Odalyn replied. It wasnât that she was being melodramatic; anyone would need time to adjust to such news.
Odalyn couldnât calm down after ending the call. The thought of meeting the Evans family the next day left her with a feeling she couldnât quite articulate.
In the past, they hadnât had much interaction with the Evans family. Now, she had suddenly become an adoptive mother to one of their daughters. She wondered if Elysiaâs mother would be easy to get along with or if she would feel like her daughter was being taken away.

The night, while the Boons family slept peacefully after a busy day, the Jackson family was restless with worry and stayed poke the entire night.

Warly the next morning, as the sun began to rise, a military vehicle pulled into the Evans residenceâs courtyard.
Holden, who was standing by the secondâfloor window, rushed to Elysiaâs room door upon seeing the vehicle and knocked experly. âElysia, Yehoshua is back His voice was filled with excitement.
Kiya opened her room door, already dressed in a stunning gown. Her exquisite features were further enhanced by her mukong, making her even more captivating. Her long hair flowed down to her waist, and the curls framing her face added a touch of allore.
Holden was so mesmerized that he couldnât tear his gaze away, momentarily lost for words.
Holden, who did you say was back just now? Elysia inquired.
