Previously, she had hidden her identity as the heiress of the Campbell family to protect herself from threats in the dark. But now the enemies had shown their faces, even sending people to hunt her down. Whether or not the Serpent Society came again, she planned to wipe them out completely.
With things falling into place, it was time to bring Cole home. She had chosen him, and she would never let him suffer in her home.
With quiet determination, she opened her phone and sent a message in the family group chat.
After their reunion yesterday, Milton had created the group chat, with only the three of them—father, son, and daughter.
Elliana typed, “Dad, Milton, I’m bringing Cole to Harmony Estate. Are you both home?”
Both Arthur and Milton had set special notifications for the family chat, fearing they might miss Elliana’s messages. At that very moment, the two were in the study, deep in discussion. When Elliana’s message arrived, their phones buzzed at the same time.
Surprised, they quickly pulled out their phones and clicked into the group chat.
When they saw that Elliana wanted to bring Cole home, their faces grew complicated.
They had promised her full freedom in choosing her partner, but acceptance was another matter. The thought of Elliana marrying into the Evans family was bitter enough. Adding Cole’s past with Wanda only made it worse. Each reason alone was enough to reject him. Yet, they couldn’t. Elliana had chosen Cole.
They had no choice but to honor her decision.
They exchanged a long glance and then composed their replies.
Arthur wrote, “Yes, sweetheart, I’m home.” Milton typed, “I’m home too.”
Seeing their instant replies, Elliana smiled and wrote, “You don’t to me dating Cole, right?”

Arthur and Milton shared another silent look before lowering their heads to type.
Arthur replied, “I respect your decision.”
Milton echoed, “As long as you’re happy.”
Elliana replied, “Thank you, Dad, Milton. I’ll bring him home soon. Please, don’t be cold to him. If you are, I’ll be so embarrassed.”
Reading that, Arthur and Milton glanced at each other once more. This time, their eyes showed the same reluctant fire. If only they could give Cole a good thrashing. Of all the women in the world, why did he have to pursue Elliana?
What a scoundrel!
But while they cursed Cole in silence, their fingers wrote the opposite.
Arthur texted, “No problem, I’ll act like a proper parent.”
Milton said, “And I’ll act like a proper brother.”
Elliana replied, “Alright. See you soon.”
Arthur responded, “We’ll be waiting at home.” Content originally comes from find·novel·net
