SWNOVELS Chapter 473
Chapter 473
While Steven and Jalen were in a stalemate, Elaina came down the stairs. Jalen ignored Steven and walked over to Elaina.
He asked, "Are you done with the talk?"
Elaina nodded and looked at Jalen meaningfully, but she did not say anything.
Jalen could feel the emotions in her eyes, but since she did not say anything, he would not ask, at least not at this moment.
Not long after, Nitzan came down from upstairs. "Let's eat."
Soon, the four of them sat at the dining table. It was unknown whether it was because of Elaina, but the atmosphere became a
little awkward.
Nitzan knew that Elaina was unhappy after the talk. He did not try to comfort her. This kind of thing could only let herself think it
through. There was no point in trying to persuade her. It would only upset her more.
Nitzan looked at Jalen. Seeing that Jalen was staring at Elaina, he sighed helplessly.
Jalen was good in every aspect in Nitzan's eyes. However, once he fell in love, he lost himself. Nitzan didn't know how much
Jalen would have to suffer from being with Elaina.
Nitzan decided to forget it.
The children had their own blessings, so he didn't want to care too much.
"Ms. Gainsford, my son Triston is working in your company. Your help in his career will be highly appreciated." Steven suddenly
spoke, surprising the other three people at the dining table.
Elaina was the most surprised. She couldn't believe that Steven directly admitted that Triston was his son and didn't care what
Jalen and Nitzan thought.
She looked at Nitzan. Nitzan's expression was normal and he was still eating calmly. It seemed that he already knew that Steven
had another son.
When Elaina came back to her senses, she smiled politely and said in a distant tone, "If Triston is capable, he will naturally be
put in an important position. If not, no matter how much you pave the way for him, I'm afraid it will all be in vain in the end."
Elaina was not stupid. She knew Nitzan was aware of everything. Now that Triston suddenly came to work at her company, it
was most likely related to her identity.
These people had ulterior motives. She really disliked them.
Steven's expression changed slightly. Perhaps he did not expect Elaina to be so rude to him.
Elaina ignored him and focused on eating the food. She did not care what Steven was thinking at all.
Jalen was secretly delighted and thought that Elaina did a good job.
After dinner, Elaina said goodbye to Tyrone. Jalen walked out of the Halton's residence with her.
On the way back to the apartment, Elaina did not speak, which made Jalen feel uneasy.
"Ella, you came today to ask Grandpa about your origin, right?" Jalen took the initiative to speak. He felt that staying silent like
this was not a solution.
Elaina retracted her gaze from the window and looked at him coldly. "You know everything, right?"
"Yes." Jalen did not deny it. He understood that he could no longer deceive
Elaina. Otherwise, he would only push this woman further and further away from him.
Elaina chuckled and said with a bit of self-mockery, "Nitzan said that you actually don't know anything."
She was actually hesitating about how to ask the question just now. If she didn't ask properly, Jalen would probably think that she
was suspecting him.
But now it seemed that she was too cautious. In fact, he already knew about it.
"I only found out about it later.' At that time, he had already fallen in love with Elaina.
Elaina did not care about this. She sneered, "Jalen, I was wondering if your love for me also has something to do with my true
family background. I always thought it was strange that the dignified president of the Halton Group would suddenly fall in love
with me."
She never believed in love at first sight, nor did she feel that she was extremely charming.
From the looks of it, she suspected that Jalen probably had ulterior motives from the start.
