Chapter

Scott felt a bit troubledgetting into Milton School wasn’t easy. Not only was there the challenge of Elysia passing the entrance exam, but her starting over in seventh grade might be a bit embarrassing for him

However, Elysia had that beauty factor going for her, and Milton was full of elite kids. If she made the right connections there, it could definitely benefit the Rosewood family business

Finally. Scott nodded. Alright, I’ll take care of this at the school this afternoon.” 

Emma’s eyes widened in disbelief. Dad’s gonna handle Elysia’s enrollment himself? He’s never even shown up for a single parentteacher meeting for me before. When I joined the school, he wouldn’t use any connections. So why’s he willing to pull strings for Elysia?” 

Jealousy flared up in Emma. Why did Elysia have to come back and take everything from me? First my room, now Dad’s affectionwhat will I lose next?‘ 

1 say no to 

to me. After all, I’m your wife,” 

Let me handle it. You’ve got so much on your plate at the office. I’m sure they won’t say Bella said

Elysia looked up, surprised by Bella’s sudden willingness to help. Is there still a hint of motherly love left for her

Scott nodded in agreement. That settled itElysia was going to Milton School

After breakfast, Elysia changed into a white dress. As she headed downstairs, she ran into Emma

Going shopping? Want to join me? I can introduce you to some friends, Emma offered

Not going that way. Step aside. You’re blocking my path, Elysia replied, her voice icy. 

Emma insisted, Those are Dad’s business contacts, and it’s important to maintain good relationships with- 

But before Emma could finish her sentence, Elysia walked right past her towards the front door, completely ignoring her. Emma’s face turned red with anger, and the irritation she’d just managed to suppress erupted again

Elysia stepped in the Scented Carden in Sivro. A receptionist, who looked unfamiliarprobably new, asked, Miss, how can I assist you?” 

Thanks, but I’m waiting for someone,Elysia replied

As the receptionist was about to say more, another receptionist, who had just ended a phone call, quickly tagged at her art to silence her and said, Sorry, Ms. Rosewood. She’s new and don’t know better. Ms. Gordon will be here soon.” 

Elysia simply nodded and stayed quiet

On the second floor of the Scented Garden, two guys with totally different vibes were chilling together, sipping coffee. One was Zane Hartley. He was dressed to the nines in a perfectailored suit and had the aura of a super-sophisticated gent. His strong, handsome features and mysterious eyes looked like they were sculpted by an artista flawless masterpiece

The other guy was Jeremy Murphy. He was decked out in a bright red suit, lounging back with his legs crossed, scanning the floor below like a predator on the prowl. That girl’s got a nice look,he remarked

Zane followed his gaze and spotted Elysia in a white dress standing in the lobby, looking like she was waiting for someone. And he had to admit, she was defmitely attractive

Soon, he realized her outfit looked familiar. While it wasn’t from bigname brand, the cut reminded him of the famous Morgania designer Ada

But Ada hadn’t dropped any new designs in two years, and this style wasn’t from any fashion show. He couldn’t help but wonder if Elysia knew Ada personally 

Jeremy leaned in. Zane, you think she’s pretty too?” 

Zane ignored him and instead turned to his assistant. “I want the lowdown on that lady downstairs.” 

Got it, the assistant replied and took off

Jeremy exclaimed dramatically, Wow! Looks like you’re finally to romance? What’s the deal? Got a crush on her? Don’t sweat it I’m not gonna compete with you for her.” 

Just then, Nicole Gordon stepped out of the elevator. Jeremy’s expression softened, and a smile crept onto his face. That’s my type.” 

Jeremy first crossed paths with Nicole at a charity gala. He was smitten by her mix of charm and grace, with just a touch of allure that made her stick in his memory from the getgo

Later, he found out she managed Scented Garden, which only upped his admiration for her. Since then, he’d been making daily appearances there just to catch a glimpse of her

Scented Garden was known as a place of high status not just anyone with cash or a fancy title could get a seat there. Running it said a lot about Nicole. At just twentyfive, she’d achieved what most folks her age were still daydreaming about

Ever since Nicole stepped out of the elevator, Jeremy’s eyes were glued to her. Watching her chat and laugh with Elysia before stepping back into the elevator, he couldn’t help but comment, If she’s hanging with my Nicole, that girl must be something special,” 

His assistant reminded him, Mr. Murphy, just a heads upMs. Cordon hasn’t officially agreed to be your girlfriend yet

She’s not yours.” 

Jeremy shot him a warning look. Not looking to lose your bon this month, are you?” 

The assistant quickly backtracked, No, my bad! Ms. Gordon is definitely going to be part of your family sooner or later.” 

Zane frowned, his patience wearing thin. You’ve seen who you wanted to see. Let’s go. With that, he stood up and headed for the exit

Jeremy followed closely behind. Why the rush? I still want to see more

Nicole’s right here. You can just go chat her up.” 

You don’t get it. Elite hunters often pretend to be prey. Nicole t just anyone. The usual moves won’t fly with her.” 

Zane didn’t bat an eye and just kept walking

Jeremy’s excitement faded, and he couldn’t help but feel worried When is he gonna get into dating? I feel like a worried parent, anxious about the big moments in his life. What if he never gets interested? Will he be alone forever?” 

Jeremy glanced over at Zane and let out a silent sigh. He’s got such a handsome face, yet no woman’s been able to touch his heart. What a pity

In the office, Elysia leaned back in her chair, looking chill, Nicole propped herself against the desk, watching her with at 

smile

I heard you went back to the Rosewood family? Nicole asked

Yep,Elysia replied

How’s that going?” 

Not bad.” 

“I also heard they have an adopted daughter. She hasn’t been musing with you, has she?” 

Her? Please!” 

Well, it’s already good you didn’t give her a hard time

Elysia just smiled and pulled out a medicine bottle from her bag, handing it to Nicole. This is the special medicine you asked for last time. I made it for you.” 

Thanks. I’ll treat you next time.” 

Better make it somewhere good then

Choose wherever you wantit’s on me.” 

After leaving the Scented Garden, Elysia hopped into the Rosewood family’s car and headed straight to the mall. Since Scott had given her the card, she figured she might as well use it

The car pulled up in front of the busiest mall in Sivro. Elysia got out, made her way to the second floor, and walked into a women’s clothing store

Welcome!the salesperson greeted, noticing Elysia’s confident vibe. Her outfit didn’t have any visible brand tags but looked seriously highend. Pointing to a display by the window, she said Miss, these are our latest arrivals. Feel free to check em 

out

Elysia casually scanned the racks, then picked up a red dress, held it up to herself for a second, and tossed it back to the salesperson. Wrap up this whole row, including the one you’re holding.” 

All of them?the salesperson asked in surprise

Yeah, and any other new arrivals too, please

Okay!The salesperson couldn’t hide her excitement. She did expect to get so lucky and meet such a generous customer today

Meanwhile, Emma and her friends were just about to enter the store when Emma suddenly yanked them back

What’s up!Mia Smith asked, her concern growing as she noticed something was off with Emma’s expression

“It’s nothing. Let’s check out another store, Emma replied

Natalie Moore followed Emma’s gaze and spotted Elysia inside the mall. Raising her eyebrows, she asked, Do you know 

her 

No.Emma said, sounding a little flustered

Natalie and Mia had thought it was nothing, but Emma’s reaction had them wondering if something was up

Is she the country bumpkin your family just brought back?Natalie asked

Mia was taken aback. Seriously? A country girl is that beautiful
