Chapter 425
Everyone sat at the table and had breakfast the next day.
Alexander seemed to be in a good mood. He was eating slowly, but it was obvious he looked relaxed,
and the main reason for that was Claude. Or more precisely, the condition Claude was in.
He was covered in a thick blanket, and it almost encompassed his head. The heater was right beside
him, but he was still shaking. Even when he was trying to have some soup, his hand was trembling as if
he had Parkinson’s disease.

Elise glanced at him and put her cutlery down. The moment she stood up, she saw two men and a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwoman coming in, smiling at them.
“Ah, looks like we came at the right time. Having breakfast, are we?” Russell asked, as if he was great
friends with the people there.
Trevor stood up the moment he heard that voice, and he turned around seriously. “Uncle Russell? Why
are you here?” he asked indignantly.
Before Trevor and Austin got into trouble, Russell had already set his sights on the company. Over the
last few years, he was trying to get himself crowned as president. This man is a hypocrite. Trevor thought
his unde truly had no ambition, since he was always smiling. However, he had learnt his lesson, and
since then, he never got close to Russell or his family. Even after Trevor and Austin came back to the
office, Russell chose to take Faye’s side. Why is he here today?
“Oh, that was rude, Trevor. Yoyo’s been back for a long time, but she hasn’t seen any of her elders yet.
Maybe she’s not used to us yet, so I came over. Aren’t you going to welcome me?” Russell gave Trevor
a reprimanding look, though he seemed friendly enough when he did that. Then, he turned his attention
to Elise, who was the only one standing
“You must be Yoyo.” He looked at her closely and nodded. “You’ve grown into a fine lady. I used to hug
you when you were a baby. Do you remember?”
“I don’t,” Elise answered coldly.
“Ah, it doesn’t matter. It’s all in the past now.” He waved her down and looked behind him. “Come over
and meet your cousin, kids.”
Daniel and Tania came up and greeted her politely, “Hi, Elise.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey were wearing a friendly smile, as if they were nice people, but even so, Elise saw the ambition in
their eyes. She had seen a lot of people, and she knew Russell and his family were more complex than
they let on. She didn’t answer them, though she did give them a nasty look.
“Hi, I’m Tania. I’m one year younger than you.”
Tania came over and tried to hold Elise’s arm, but Elise dodged her easily, leaving Tania’s hand hanging
in the air awkwardly. It took her a while to pull her hand back, and she faked a smile to pretend that
everything was fine. Then, she looked up and tried to say something, but she met Elise’s ferocious gaze.
It was at that moment, she realized that Elise’s gaze was sharper than anything she had seen before.
The moment their eyes met, Tania felt a damning chill running down her spine. It was as if she was
stranded in a snowy wasteland, trying to take a step ahead, but she was buffeted by a snowstorm that
forced her to close her eyes.
