Escape From My Step Brother's Dangerous Obsession (Skylar and Callias) novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152

Hearing this, Ella stood up abruptly from the sofa, her voice full of disbelief, "Are you saying that Elena used me to deal with Skylar? She fabricated the story that you like Skylar, but in reality, it's her who likes Lukas and sees Skylar as her imaginary enemy. Instead of acting herself, she manipulated me to confront Skylar."

Ella knew about Elena's feelings for Lukas. However, she never imagined that she could be used as a pawn by Elena.

Anthony looked at Ella, feeling a bit sympathetic, "Wel, yes. Even if I did like Skylar, it's not something to hide from you. But right now, she is just my friend, can you understand that?"

Ella's whole being seemed to have suffered a huge blow, and she muttered to herself, "I understand."

She suddenly looked up at Anthony, her voice filled with some hatred that Anthony couldn't comprehend, "It was Elena who deceived me."

If it wasn't for Elena, she wouldn't have wanted to harm Skylar, or think about tampering with the drinks at the banquet and wouldn't even have tainted herself by getting involved with Gerald, who was nothing but a scumbag.

Thinking of all this, her eyes turned red.

Anthony felt a bit helpless, "At this point, even if you know the truth, don't act recklessly. Because we have known each other since childhood, I still want to remind you. Now that you are going to marry Gerald, Elena is Gerald's cousin. You can't make a scene with her, or else you'll be ostracized in the Hughes Family."

"Moreover, behind Elena is Elias. If Elias stands up for her, offending Elena will be the same as offending Elias. These complex relationships involve many prominent families. I hope you can understand and avoid bringing trouble to your family."

Tears streamed down Ella's face. She was angry, aggrieved, and heartbroken. Yet, at this point, Anthony was still willing to consider her welfare, even if there was no love between them.

She stood up in a disheveled state, wiping her tears forcefully, "Thank you, Anthony. I won't act rashly."

Ella said, then turned around to leave.

Anthony raised his voice, "Ella."

Ella faced away from him, her voice trembling with sobs, "Do you have anything else to say?"

"When are you and Gerald going to register your marriage?" This matter concerned Skylar, so Anthony could not help but ask.

Ella clenched her teeth, suppressing her crying voice, "Tomorrow."

After saying that, she quickly turned around and left.

Anthony watched her leave, shaking his head helplessly, hoping this matter would end here.

At the same time, at Hidden Amethyst Cove Gardens.

Lukas can be seen standing in the garden, holding scissors, and casually pruning the roses in a bush. He is waiting for Martins to come and bring the person responsible for the fiasco at the Rivers birthday banquet.

Not long after, Martins came with two bodyguards.

The bodyguards are dragging a slender man toward Lukas.
