Chapter 548 Ethanâs chopper landed behind a mountaintop and they immediately hopped onto another one. After a few rounds of this, they finally arrived at Eldridia.
After being forcibly taken into the villa, Eleanor handed Nina over to George âLook after her for a bit, will ya? I gotta have a word with himâ
George knew Eleanor had been deceived all the way here, and now she was going to confront Ethan. He took Nina and gave them space After George left with the child, Eleanor fumbled her way onto the living room couch with the help of the servants.
Once settled, she lifted her barely seeing eyes and tried to find Ethan.
Once she found him, she asked him coldly: âWhatâs your game, Ethan? You promised me that after a month, youâd let me go home. Now youâve tricked me into coming to Eldridia, what are you really up to?â
Ethan, pulling out a cigarette from his pack, glanced at her: 1 told you from the getâgo, I donât do promises.â
He it his cigarette, took a drag, and exhaled slowly.
Eleanor spat out, Ethan, my name is Eleanor, not Emilia. I have my own life, you just want to see my sister, so you tied her sister to you. Is this your way of showing love to her, or just a way to ruin me?â
It had been a while since Ethan heard her speak so clearly and logically. Lately, sheâd been playing the part of Emilia, obediently doing his bidding, but she seemed more like a puppet, devoid of any thoughts of her own. Now, seeing a spark of the old Eleanor, he couldnât help but notice her personality.
Ethan stared at her and replied gravely. âYou can take it as me taking revenge on her.â
Eleanor laughed coldly, âYouâre not taking revenge on her, youâre taking revenge on me.â
Ethan said, âYou can think what you want. To me, youâre her.â
Eleanor touched her own face, âSometimes, I want to destroy this face, rip out this heart, but I still havenât seen him.â
Her tears began to fall, âCanât you just let me go back and see him once, Ethan? Just once.â
Seeing her cry again for Bernard, Ethan said coldly, âKeep crying, and youâll go completely blind.â
Eleanor held back her tears She got up from the couch, and once again knelt humbly before Ethan, âEthan, please, let me go.â
She was desperate. She couldnât see, she couldnât escape. She had agreed to pretend to be Emilia hoping for a glimmer of hope, but he still wouldnât let her go. All she wanted was to see him in his grave, was that too much to ask?
Ethan looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, reminding him of how Emilia had once begged him to let her go.
Was he really that terrifying? Why did everyone want to stay away from him? All he wanted was to keep her, the one with Emiliaâs heart. Was that too much?
He stared at the crying figure while holding his cigarette.
When the burning end of the cigarette touched his skin, he came back to himself. He averted his gaze and said, âI canât possibly let you go.â
He tossed the cigarette away, got up and left without a backward glance, as if he was afraid that seeing her pathetic state would make him go soft.
Hearing his footsteps fade away, Eleanor collapsed on the ground, cursing like a fishwife, Ethan, you big fat liar! You promised me, you said youâd let me go home, why donât you keep your word? Why did you deceive me?!â
Her heartâwrenching cries, although blocked by the door, still reached George and Ninaâs ears Nina, who was playing with her Lego, put down her toys and wanted to go to her aunt, but was held back by George.
George tried to comfort Nina, âNina, darling, your aunt and your uncle had a little argument. Let them sort it out, okay?â
Nina frowned, âBut my aunt is crying Canât I comfort her?â
George felt he wasnât as mature as a child and let go of Nina, âAlright, go and keep your aunt companyâ
Nina ran to the door, stood on her tiptoes and turned the doorknob. She ran to Eleanor and touched her tearâstreaked face with her soft hand.
âAuntie, donât cry, let Nina wipe your tears...â
Nina used her sleeve to wipe Eleanorâs cheeks.
