Chapter 239 

Alex got up and walked over to the floortoceiling window, sinking into a long silence. Finally, he muttered under his breath, suppressing his emotions, I need to know the truth 

Layton wasn’t the least bit surprised by Alex’s determination. With a sarcastic snort, he grumbled, You’re so eager to believe Ellie saved you. Aren’t you afraid that one day, that scalpel in her hand might accidentally cut open your artery?” 

Alex braced one hand against the windowpane, closing his eyes. If that day ever came, he thought, no matter the punishment she dealt him, he would accept it

Meanwhile, at the Owens residence, Haley clutched a hospitalissued medical report her mother had handed her. Her voice trembled with excitement as she asked, Mom, there’s no way this can be traced back to me, right?” 

Evelyn gave her a reassuring look. Relax. You scheduled those tests yourself, one by one, at a legitimate hospital. That one specific result was handled by your aunt’s colleague, who did it personally

It was her last day before moving abroad. As long as you keep quiet, no one will ever find out.” 

Haley’s grip on the stack of reports tightened, her expression turning smug

In her hands were a diagnosis of severe depression and a medical report stating she had significant reproductive damage, rendering her infertile. Armed with these, she had no fear of Alex doubting her

Evelyn gave her a firm reminder. Mr. Warren already knows the girl who saved him was injected with drugs that left her unable to have children

If he insists on you both getting a premarital health check, show him this report. Use it as an opportunity to persuade him to get the marriage license first

And if he pressures you further, use your depression as an excuse to buy time. Under no circumstances are you to agree to another health check” 

Pausing for effect, she added, Ethan’s finished. From now on, the entire Owens family depends on you. Haley, you must succeed,” 

I understand, Mom. I’ll find a way to marry Alex and become his wife,said Haley

A sudden thought struck Haley, and she grabbed her mother’s hand. By the way, where’s that necklace I told you to put away? Give it to me now.” 

Evelyn hesitated for a moment before retrieving the necklace from her bedroom. Haley snatched it and promptly tossed it 

into the trash

This necklace can’t get back to Alex, and no one else should ever see it either, Haley wondered

Evelyn, clearly uneasy, bent down and retrieved the necklace from the trash. Tugging Haley along, she headed to the kitchen on the first floor

She rummaged through the fridge and pulled out a halfused bag of frozen seafood

Stuffing the necklace into it, she tossed the bag into the kitchen trash can and carefully covered it with some leftover

vegetables. By tomorrow, when the maids take out the garbage, this necklace will be gone for good. Don’t worry

Unbeknownst to the mother and daughter, their latenight scheming had been observed by the livein maid

The middleaged woman, Amelia, in her fifties, watched as they climbed the stairs. Once the coast was clear, she slipped into 

the kitchen

Spotting the fresh vegetables poking out of the trash, she cast a cautious glance toward the kitchen door before crouching down and carefully rummaging through the garbage

The following morning, Ellie descended the stairs just in time to see Alex walk in

Standing at the bottom of the staircase, Ellie locked eyes with him as he changed shoes by the entryway. Without a word, she turned and headed toward the dining room

Alex hadn’t seen Ellie in days. Watching her avoid him like the plague, his 

eyes 

darkened

In the dining room, Ellie sat with Todd and Nancy, sharing breakfast

The maids had just finished setting the table when Alex entered in his pajamas, his hair still damp. The familiar scent of his body wash wafted through the air. Ellie focused on her meal, ignoring Alex as he sat beside her

Alex glanced sideways at Ellie, waiting for her to acknowledge him. When she didn’t, his face fell, and he looked away with a sullen expression

As his parents chatted warmly with Ellie over breakfast, Alex, feeling left out, scowled and finally broke the silence. Dad, when are we officially breaking off the engagement with the Grant family?”
