CHAPTER 1038 CONRAD IS FURIOUS
Eleanor smiled indifferently. Then, she looked at Matthew for a moment before landing her gaze on Veronica. “Your husband hates me, Veronica,” she said while pointing at him.
“He just can’t stand your enthusiasm.” Veronica chuckled.
Although she knew Eleanor had feelings for Matthew, she was clear that it was in the past. Now, Eleanor didn’t like Matthew. Thus, they treated her as a friend as well as their savior.
When Thomas and Yvette saw their interactions, they were surprised. However, they dared not ask any questions. Mr. and Mrs. Kings treat Eleanor differently, they thought.
Just then, Shirley appeared in the living room. “Eleanor,” she called out. The mask she wore was big enough to cover half of her face, so the scars on her nose weren’t noticeable.
“Hey.” Skyler wrapped his arm around Shirley and waved at Eleanor.
“Hello.” Elanor waved back.
The loneliness in her heart slowly disappeared when she saw the familiar faces before her.
In the hidden clan, she was the most talented and famous person. However, now that she was in an unfamiliar place, she had to get used to the different environment, which gave her lots of pressure and challenges.
“Since you want to prepare a welcoming banquet for me, I want you to cook, Master,” said Eleanor. Then, she walked past Matthew and entered the living room. “Can I look around your house, Veronica?”
“Sure thing.” Veronica carried the baby and walked up the stairs. Then, she handed the baby to the babysitter before leading Eleanor into the house.
After the women entered the living room, Caleb crossed his arms and stood before Matthew. “I must say, Princess Eleanor is indeed beautiful. It looks like Veronica has a competitor,” he remarked playfully.
