Chapter 174 No Way Back
Compared to Camille, Elena was completely different.
She genuinely treated Malcolm and Vivian as her parents, and whenever she spoke about them, there was pride in her voice.
So when Monica learned that they had left everything to Elena, she felt relieved.
They had made the right decision.
That was also why she had personally reached out to Elena and agreed to the interview.
Camille’s face turned red with embarrassment.
How had everything changed in just one day?
“Monica,” Camille said, her voice tight, “is there some misunderstanding between us? Elena, did you say something to her-”
Before she could finish, Monica raised her hand and cut her off.
“Is having parents who worked ordinary jobs something shameful?” Monica said coldly. “From what I can see, the Hart family didn’t even teach you basic respect. If you’re not feeling well, you should go back to the hospital. I don’t fall for this kind of act.”
Her words hit like a slap.
Camille’s eyes filled with tears.
The humiliation was overwhelming. Her fists clenched tightly, but she forced herself to hold it in and turned to leave the room.
Even Elena hadn’t expected Monica to stand up for her like that.
“Thank you, Aunt Monica,” Elena said.
“There’s nothing to thank me for,” Monica replied. “Your parents raised you as their own, so you’re my niece. I won’t let anyone push you around.”
Even if that person was her biological relative.
“Rachel,” Monica called out.
Rachel walked in, her head lowered, not daring to meet Monica’s eyes.

She shook Nathan’s hand off, walked Monica to her car, and watched her leave. Nathan waved close the entire time.
Once Monica’s car drove away, Elena turned to him, her expression cold.
“So what do you want to talk about?” Elena said with a mocking smile. “I just finished eating D you come here on purpose to make me sick?”
“I didn’t mean that,” Nathan said quickly.
“Then say what you have to say.”
“Let’s go inside,” Nathan said, gesturing toward the cafe nearby.
Elena frowned, about to refuse, when Nathan added, “There are too many people here. Do yo really want to make a scene?”
After a moment of hesitation, Elena reluctantly agreed and followed him into the café.
“What do you want to drink?” Nathan asked, a hint of eagerness in his voice. “Cappuccino, right?”
Elena rolled her eyes.. Tim not drinking anything. Just say what you came to say. What about Grandpa?”
“He’s fine,” Nathan said, hesitating slightly.
Of course he is. Another lie.
Elena picked up her bag and snood up to leave.
Nathan quickly stopped her
“I know I shouldn’t have lied to you” Nathan said. “Elena, I admit I made makes before. But you’re willing, everything I said smill stands. I can divorce Camille right away and we can go back to how things used to be. Okay”
His eyes were filled with sincerity and expectation.
Eleria felt a wave of disgust.
“You really think I would take back a PNA)
