Alex’s luxury car slowly pulled to a stop, and the door was opened from the outside. Alex was not in a hurry to get out
Alex turned his head to look at Ellie, paused for a few seconds, and said, “Today, you must clear up this matter for Haley. Do not indulge in any sentimental responses to anyone’s questions and do not cause any trouble for me.”
Alex continued, “In short, apart from the script you just memorized, do not say a single word more than what is written.”
Ellie raised her eyes and quietly looked at Alex, who was so close. She looked at his face.
In fact, during their youth, Alex had been extremely kind to her.
He often teased her, making her cry with his mean words and actions. He always said, “Ellie, you look as ugly as a rat. You’re even uglier when you cry.”
But most of the time, she could feel his care hidden beneath his caustic remarks. She could see the worry in Alex’s eyes when he scolded her loudly.
He aggressively drove away all the male friends around her. He yelled at her, “Ellie, you are not allowed to fall in love too early, or I will beat you up.”
Every time she was wronged, he always showed up. He was always extremely arrogant to those who bullied her, saying, “I’m here to back her up, not to reason. If you dare to bully her again, I’ll destroy you all.”
He never reasoned when protecting her. He fought like a madman for her.
All the memories were like colorful bubbles in the sunlight, beautiful and illusory, not meant to last.
Pushing her thoughts away, Ellie’s tone was surprisingly calm. “The only time I indulged in wishful thinking nearly cost me my life. I dare not do it again.”
After speaking, Ellie got out of the car first.
Her youthful naivety had left her bruised and battered, with a heart full of bitterness that she never dared to express.
Only she knew that the moments when she was the most difficult and sad were also the times when she was the most lonely and silent.
Alex sat in the car, his mind replaying Ellie’s words until he was reminded by someone outside, and then he got out of the
car.
Ellie followed Alex into the hotel lobby, where a crowd of journalists swarmed around them.
“Ms. Thompson, if the content of the video is true and you are the victim, why are you clearing the perpetrator’s name? Is there any hidden story behind this?” A middle–aged male journalist rushed to Ellie.
The next moment, the camera in the man’s hand was snatched by Alex. “You blind idiot. Throw him out!”
As soon as Alex finished speaking, the middle–aged male journalist was forcibly removed from the scene by two security guards. The surrounding journalists who were eager to try their luck suddenly became well–behaved.
Ellie lowered her eyes and stood quietly beside Alex.

He went to such lengths to force her to come here and clear Haley’s name, even using means against Aaron and falling out

with his parente. Of course, he wouldn’t allow wey oexperted sinarins as happers.
“You’re finally here? Hidey unobtrusively toed between Alex and Ellie.
Snelling Haley’s perfume, Ellie dodged to the side.
Haley obviously dressed up carefully, standing beside Alex in high heels and a dress. They looked like a perfect match, as compatible as could be
Haley affectionately held Alex’s arm, not at all avoiding the many journalists present. “The journalists here have been waiting for a long time. Let’s hurry over”
Alex nodded, glanced at Ellie, saw her standing quietly in the corner with her head down, and pulled his arm free from Haley’s hold to stand in front of Ellie.
Looking down at Ellie with a commanding gaze, he warned in a low voice, “Remember what I just told you. Don’t talk out of
turn.”
Ellie nodded expressionlessly. She clenched her hands, which were resting by her sides.
Ellie could almost imagine the anger, the accusations, and even the attacks she would face once she spoke up to clear Haley’s
name.
Perhaps sensing Ellie’s emotional turmoil, Alex stopped after a few steps and said in a low voice, “It’s just a few words. There won’t be any other surprises, and I’ll take you back after the press conference ends.”
Ellie felt a wave of irony in her heart. She was not a little child. She was well aware of what this press conference meant for her. It meant she would be cyberbullied.
