Jalen felt pity for Saul. After all, their experience was very similar, but not so alike.
After all, although Jalen lost his father and mother, he still had a grandfather. Although
Nitzan was. strict, Jalen sincerely loved his grandfather. This caused his growth to be completely different from Saul’s growth.
After Elaina heard him say that, she realized that the Halton family had such a grudge against the Judson family. No wonder Saul always had a look of hatred when he mentioned the Halton family.
Yet…
Could such a thing really be blamed on the Halton family and Jalen? He was also a victim.
Elaina was silent. For a moment, she did not know who to feel sorry for.
“Alright, let’s eat,” Jalen interrupted her thoughts. There was no trace of sadness on his face about losing his parents.
Perhaps for him, those unbearable things had already passed.
Elaina nodded and followed him back to the living room. There were dishes in front of them. They ate slowly.
“If you don’t want to move, forget it.” After a while, Elaina finally spoke.
Jalen, however, was amused by her appearance. The corners of his lips curled up. He asked, “Why are you looking at me like that? Are you pitying me?”
“I am not.” Elaina immediately shook her head, but she knew in her heart that she really felt sorry for Jalen.
“You don’t have to pity me. To me, they are just strangers. I won’t feel sad because of their departure,” Jalen said.
Jalen did not care about such irresponsible parents. In the past twenty years, he only cared about Nitzan.
And now he also cared about Elaina.
Elaina saw that his expression was normal and did not seem to be sad. She argued, “I said no! Do you need sympathy?”
“No,” Jalen said.
The room fell silent. No one spoke again. Elaina quietly finished the meal. Finally, she found that Jalen’s cooking seemed good.
“It tastes very good. Thank you,” she said, a little embarrassed.
“You’re welcome,” Jalen said. “So can you forgive my impulsiveness yesterday?”
“No.” Elaina rolled her eyes at him, got up, and put the plate and fork into the kitchen.
Jalen was upset, but he did not force her.
After breakfast, he seemed to have no reason to continue staying here, so he had to leave. “Grandpa misses you very much. When you have time, can you go to the Halton’s Residence to see him?”
“Yes, I will go.” Elaina nodded.
Jalen stood at the door and wanted to continue speaking, but Elaina did not give him a chance. She mercilessly closed the door and left him outside.
The man smiled bitterly and took out his phone to call Graham. “Have someone come to the apartment to pack up.”
“Okay, Mr. Halton. Are you going to move?” Graham asked.
“Yes, I’ll move back to the Halton’s Residence.”
“Okay.” Graham did not find it strange. His boss should not have lived in that small apartment.
The party was organized by Elaina tonight, and only Theodore and Saul were invited.
“Ella, it seems that you have considered my proposal,” Saul said with a smile. He was in a good mood.
He understood Elaina. If she had not considered his proposal, she would not have brought Theodore to meet him.
Elaina nodded with a smile and looked at Theodore. Theodore said knowingly, “Mr. Judson, Ella told me about your proposal. I think it is feasible, and I believe that you can become a good partner.”
“Of course,” Saul replied.
“We’re here to discuss the distribution of the Lory family’s property today. We have to make it clear first, lest we fight over it.”
Theodore was a qualified businessman. Benefits were his eternal pursuit.
“Of course,” Saul said without getting angry.
Then, they began to discuss the business under the Lory family. Elaina didn’t understand the specific details, so she didn’t say much. Today, she just acted as a link.
