Chapter 498
Peter was still stunned. For a moment, he did not know what to say.
’Okay." After a while, he nodded and agreed, but he did not dare to ask Elaina to make a request. After all, according to Elaina's
personality, if he said it, Elaina would do as he said.
It was not that Peter was reluctant to give away those small companies, but it would attract a lot of attention if he gave Elaina too
much. Elaina just returned. If he gave her too much, not to mention Denise and Sophie, even the other shareholders in his family
would object to it.
Although Peter didn't care, he didn't want to make too many enemies for Elaina, so he had to take it slow.
’I'll get my assistant to prepare the transfer contracts for the two companies. When do you plan to move back?’ Peter asked
nervously. To be honest, he didn't know what Elaina was thinking.
He always felt that although Elaina looked young, she was more sophisticated than him in doing things. She was not childish and
willful, and she knew what she wanted.
Elaina was rational. If Elaina were his partner, he would be happy. But Elaina was his daughter, so he couldn't feel delighted.
He thought that it was because he had not protected Elaina since she was young that she became so rational at a young age.
She didn't have the impulse a person of her age should have.
However, he could only think about this. He could not say it to Elaina because he was the one in the wrong.
’It's better to follow my heart. Tonight." Elaina said with a smile. She was looking forward to seeing Sophie's expression when
she saw her at the mansion. It must be amazing.
"Okay," Peter agreed.
The matter had been settled. Elaina did not intend to stay any longer. She got up and was about to leave.
Seeing that Elaina was about to leave, Peter was anxious. "You're leaving just like that? Don't you have anything to ask me?"
He was prepared. He felt that Elaina would ask a lot about the past and would question him about why he abandoned her.
However, up until now, she never asked about it.
Elaina stopped and looked at Peter.
Did she have anything to ask him?
She did. She had a lot of questions to ask.
But...
When she was in front of Peter, she did not know what to ask.
To be more precise, she felt that it was meaningless to ask anything.
"Nothing. If you want to say something, just say it." She had grown up and did not need anyone to take care of her. Peter's
appearance was meaningless to her.
Peter sighed. He did not want to see Elaina like this.
He even hoped that Elaina would scold him and question him, which was better than being calm.
Peter turned his head and looked at Ada who was still sitting there. "Go.
You won't owe Denise anything. Do not let me see you help her again."
He did not intend to teach Ada a lesson because he knew very well that since Ada appeared in front of him unharmed, it meant
that Elaina had no intention of taking her life. Otherwise, he could not see her.
Since Elaina did not want to kill Ada, Peter would not hurt her even though he wanted to do so.
Ada left the office. When she walked to the door, she turned back and said to Elaina, "Thank you."
She knew that Peter let her go because of Elaina.
Elaina shrugged with an indifferent expression and did not take it to heart.
After Ada left, Peter let Elaina sit down and get someone to take her a glass of water. After that, he let out a long sigh as if he
was lost in his memories.
