After the two left, Estelle Sterling walked up to Alaric Faulkner and scoffed, "Hey, Alaric, Eleanor’s godmother seems to be with Jasper Faulkner."
Alaric Faulkner raised his eyebrows, puzzled by what she meant.
Estelle Sterling propped her chin and said, "In other words, Jasper Faulkner already has someone, so you don’t have to worry about him competing with you for Sister Eleanor. You can pursue her boldly."
Upon hearing this, Alaric Faulkner curled his lips into a faint smile. It really sounded good.
He took out his phone and said, "I’ll have Elijah Hayes send you guys back first."
Knowing that Alaric Faulkner wanted some alone time with Eleanor Sterling, the two little ones couldn’t wait to disappear quickly and immediately agreed.
At this moment, Eleanor Sterling stepped outside but still didn’t see Alaric Faulkner anywhere.
As she mumbled to herself and picked up her phone to make a call, a chilling voice came from the side.
"What is your relationship with Silas Hawthorne?"
Eleanor Sterling paused, looking up in surprise, her mouth agape the next second.
"Jordan Hawthorne, why are you here!"
So she wasn’t seeing things earlier. This man really came; did he leave K Country?
"I’m asking you, what is your relationship with Silas Hawthorne?"
Jordan Hawthorne’s eyes showed a hint of madness, his voice growing colder.
Eleanor Sterling frowned, "No relationship." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel•fire.net
"Ha! You think I’ll believe you?" Jordan Hawthorne sneered coldly.
Seeing his demeanor, Eleanor Sterling pinched her brow and spoke up, "I don’t think we have any relationship, do we? Even if I’m with Silas, it has nothing to do with you."
These words seemed to anger Jordan Hawthorne.
He stepped forward and grabbed Eleanor Sterling’s wrist, his powerful grip leaving a red mark on her skin.
Gritting his teeth, his expression fierce and sinister, he spoke word by word, "You can’t be with him; otherwise, I will destroy you!"
Eleanor Sterling watched him near madness, knowing he was having another episode.
Softly, she said, "Deep breaths, clear your mind, follow my lead, inhale... exhale..."
Her voice seemed magical, as if etched into his bones, and Jordan Hawthorne followed her instructions.
Gradually, his restless emotions calmed down, and he took deep breaths.
A voice containing thinly veiled anger resonated.
Eleanor Sterling turned to look, seeing Alaric Faulkner approaching slowly.
Alaric Faulkner’s face was as dark as could be, his inherently powerful aura now carrying intense pressure. Even Jordan Hawthorne was momentarily intimidated.
"Alaric Faulkner?" He called his name.
Though Jordan Hawthorne recognized Alaric Faulkner, Alaric Faulkner knew nothing about Jordan Hawthorne.
Alaric Faulkner’s deep eyes stared at him.
He only knew this man was acquainted with Eleanor Sterling, and now they were tugging at each other right in front of him.
As for who he was, Alaric knew not.
Jordan Hawthorne still tightly gripped Eleanor Sterling’s hand, causing Alaric Faulkner to frown, his aura growing colder.
Seeing Alaric Faulkner furious, Eleanor Sterling felt a headache coming on.
Alaric Faulkner and Jordan Hawthorne were now facing off.
Neither of them was easy to deal with.
Alaric Faulkner looked at Eleanor Sterling, his voice deep, "Eleanor, come here."
After spending three billion of his money, Eleanor Sterling felt a little guilty, especially since she indeed had no relation with Jordan Hawthorne.
If anything, she was merely Jordan Hawthorne’s doctor.
Eleanor Sterling broke free from Jordan Hawthorne and walked toward Alaric Faulkner.
Seeing her walk toward him, Alaric Faulkner’s tightly knit brows relaxed slightly.
As soon as she reached his side, he wrapped his arm around her waist, guiding her away.
Jordan Hawthorne watched their retreating figures but did not follow. His eyes flickered with an elusive glint before he too turned to leave.
