Without waiting for Elaina to reply, Alisha continued, “Jalen brought me back to have dinner. After all, we are a family in the future, so we naturally have to interact more. Ms. Gainsford, don’t you agree?”
“Ms. Lory, you are asking the wrong person. I am not interested in whether you are a family.” Elaina rolled her eyes at Alisha, then turned and walked into the living room, ignoring the two people behind her.
Elaina did not say a word to Jalen, nor did she look at him. Elaina seemed to treat Jalen as an invisible person.
“Jalen…”
“Can’t you just shut up?” Jalen turned his head to look at Alisha, and his voice was extremely cold.
He was in a terrible mood, especially when he saw Elaina’s indifferent look. He almost couldn’t help but rush up to Elaina and ask.
What exactly should he do to win her heart?
Alisha felt the coldness from Jalen, which was bone-chilling and made people tremble.
Alisha knew clearly in her heart that although others were talking about their marriage, Jalen had never said that he would marry her, even though he had never denied it…
However, Alisha just felt uneasy. She always felt that Jalen would not forgive her easily.
As soon as Elaina stepped into the living room, Nitzan smiled at her and said, “You’re here. It’s quite early today.”
“Yes, I got off work early.” Elaina walked over and sat down next to Nitzan
Nitzan was about to continue speaking when he saw Jalen and Alisha walk in from the door.
Nitzan’s face instantly turned sullen.
Nitzan snorted coldly and said to Jalen in a bad mood, “Why did you bring her here? Are you trying to annoy me?”
“She said that she wanted to visit you, so I brought her here.” Jalen deliberately told Elaina that it was not that he wanted to bring Alisha here but that Alisha wanted to come over herself.
However, Elaina did not care about it at all. She pretended not to hear it and slowly drank the coffee that Takvor had brought her.
Alisha felt the displeasure from Nitzan’s eyes and said stiffly, “Mr. Halton, you have been watching me grow up since I was a child. Jalen and I are childhood sweethearts. Are you dissatisfied with me?”
Alisha did not understand it. In the past, Nitzan had liked her quite a lot. Why was Nitzan unhappy when she was married into the Halton family?
“Hmph. I used to regard you as my granddaughter. Naturally, I treated you well. But now… How dare you plot against my grandson?”
His words were very unpleasant, and he didn’t care about Alisha’s feelings. When Alisha heard this, her face was particularly ugly.
“Do you want to marry into the Halton family with that kind of despicable means? Don’t even think about it!”
Alisha was speechless for a moment. Before she came, she did not expect that Nitzan would have such a bad attitude toward her. She originally thought that with their past relationship, she might be able to get Nitzan’s approval. However…
Before she could speak, she heard Nitzan continue, “I only acknowledge Ella as my granddaughter-in- law. I won’t accept anyone else. Don’t even think of becoming one of the Halton family.”
Nitzan did not know what Jalen was planning, but he had to make it clear. If Alisha could retreat, it would be best. If she did not know what was good for her…
Then Nitzan might teach her a lesson.
Elaina, who had been having coffee, was inexplicably involved. She immediately felt the hostility in Alisha’s eyes.
Elaina originally wanted to say a few words, but she felt that there was no need to let Alisha feel happy. She simply did not explain and looked at Alisha with a smile, successfully making Alisha person angrier.
Unfortunately, in front of Nitzan, even if Alisha was angry, she did not dare to show her anger.
Looking at Alisha like that, Elaina felt very relieved.
Jalen could not help but be attracted by Elaina. Only when Alisha pulled his sleeve and looked at him pitifully did he come back to his senses.
“Let’s eat first. We can talk after dinner,” Jalen said.
