She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 273

But being stared at by Evelyn was like being watched by a venomous snake; she was too frightened to speak.

Bryant noticed Elina’s grip on his hand tightening, but he didn’t realize the cause was Evelyn.

Suddenly, Melanie’s slender, tall figure stepped in front of Elina.

Elina let out a breath. Even though she could only see Melanie’s back, that beautiful silhouette felt like an unbreakable shield, blocking all the malice directed at her.

“She’s the one!” Elina shouted from behind Melanie. “When Lila ran out of the kids’ pool, she said her mom told her the wave pool was more fun.”

Having finally told the truth, Elina felt a wave of relief.

However, Evelyn just smiled dismissively.

“Can you really trust the words of a four or five-year-old child?”

“Then you can’t trust what Lila said, either,” Melanie immediately retorted with calm composure. “Because Lila is the same age as Elina.”

Evelyn’s mouth fell open, momentarily at a loss for words.

Bryant watched Melanie, his eyes shining. He felt that not only was Melanie exceptionally professional and competent in her pharmaceutical work, but her insight was also sharp, and she was incredibly good to Elina.

Instinctively, Bryant pressed a hand over his heart.

His heart hammered against his ribs.

If…

If Melanie could be Elina’s mother…

“So, let’s all stop arguing. The important thing is that Lila is okay…”

Dominic’s voice was like a bucket of cold water poured over Bryant’s head.

Even though Dominic’s words had nothing to do with him, his voice instantly pulled Bryant from his fantasy back to reality—

Melanie was a married woman.

She was not divorced.
