Chapter 508 If You Provoke Me
Elaina was a little surprised. Sophie was smarter than she thought. She thought that Sophie would go against her to the end. If so, Sophie would not pose any threat at all.
However, Sophie knew she should swallow her anger, which meant that she was not so easy to deal with.
Elaina thought, how annoying!
In fact, if Sophie did not take the initiative to provoke Elaina, Elaina would not pay attention to her. Maybe she would not even consider returning to the Gainsford family.
But Sophie irritated Elaina, and Denise sent some people to kill Elaina. How could Elaina let them get away with it?
Obviously, Elaina could not sulk in futile silence.
Seeing that Elaina did not speak, Peter was worried that she was unwilling to go with Sophie, so he said, “You can go there if you want to go. Ella will not go with you. I will personally bring her there.”
“Dad, aren’t you very busy? You don’t have time to take care of her during the dinner party…”
“Ella’s all that matters,” Peter interrupted Sophie. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Sophie was so jealous that she was about to go crazy. She did not understand. They were both Peter’s daughters. Why did he treat them so differently?
When Elaina heard this, she looked up at Peter and said, “No need. If you’re busy, I can go there with my sister.”
When Elaina called Sophie her sister, Sophie couldn’t help but get goosebumps all over. She felt a chill shiver ripple over her skin.
“Alright, you don’t have to be afraid of her. If she dares to bully you, just tell me,” Peter said warmly. Obviously, he suspected that Sophie was up to no good.
Sophie forced a smile and said, “Dad, I won’t bully my sister. It was just a misunderstanding.”
Peter did not say anything. He reached out to refill Elaina’s plate and ignored Sophie.
During the meal, other than Peter and Elaina, the other two were in an extremely bad mood.
After dinner, because Elaina would live in the Gainsford’s manor, Peter asked the servants to clean up her room. Moreover, he personally took Elaina to her room.
“I don’t know what style you like, so I just decorated it casually. If you don’t like it, you can ask our servants to refurbish it,” Peter said.
Elaina looked at the simple decor of the room. She was not dissatisfied.
She would not stay here for long. “It’s good. Thank you.”
“Ella, I am your father. You don’t have to be so polite to me.” Peter felt a little uncomfortable. He could tell that Elaina did not really accept him as her father.
Elaina did not deny it. Instead, she said, “I haven’t seen you for so many years. You should at least give me some time, right?”
“Okay, take your time.” As long as Elaina was not so reluctant, Peter could wait. He was afraid that Elaina would not even give him a chance.
After Elaina unpacked her belongings, she went downstairs to walk around.
The Gainsford’s manor was very large. There was a garden and a swimming pool. Elaina thought it was lovely to take a walk here after meals.
“You must be proud, right?” Sophie’s voice came from behind her. Sophie stood in the shadows, hatred growing in her heart.
Elaina turned to look at her and smiled. “It’s okay. There’s nothing to be proud of.”
Yes, in Elaina’s opinion, she just frustrated Sophie for the time being. That was nothing to be proud of.
“How could you return to the Gainsford family? Even if your mother and my father were dating, they never married. You are just an illegitimate daughter. Don’t you feel ashamed?” Sophie looked at Elaina, trying to see the slightest trace of panic or shame on her face.
However, Sophie was disappointed. Elaina was still smiling, and her smile was so annoying.
Elaina gazed at the flowers and said slowly, “I don’t know what happened between them, and I don’t care. In fact, I don’t care about returning to the Gainsford family. If Denise hadn’t sent people to kill me in New York, I wouldn’t have come here at all.
“After all, if you don’t provoke me, we’ll be at peace. If you dare to provoke me, then I…
“Naturally, I can’t let you go that easily!”
