Only you in my love novel Chapter 815

Elaine's hands, which were holding a plate of fruits, started to tremble. At a loss, she took a hesitant step forward, then a resolute step backward.

She was not equipped to deal with this situation.

If she knocked on the door and walked in, everyone would be embarrassed. She tried to think of what to say if she did walk in, but then she found that she was too shocked and her mind drew a total blank.

She didn't want to break up a couple, especially if it meant interfering with her daughter's happiness.

But never in her wildest dreams would she have expected that her daughter had fallen in love with Leon.

How noble Leon was! He was the prince of C Island and was on the cusp of inheriting the throne.

His noble status was something that their family couldn't ever hope to match.

Leon had always said he viewed them as family, but that was just because he was polite and modest. Even so, they had never forgotten his status in society.

Elaine had an inkling that her daughter had fallen in love with someone, but she initially thought it was Tim who moved in next door. Evidently, she had misunderstood their relationship.

But now that she was thinking about it, she realized how Leon had always sent them strawberries and gifts during festivals over the past three years, although he himself never showed up personally.

He only ever frequented them when Michelle was home.

Also, her daughter often talked about Leon. Every time she looked at him, her eyes lit up. Apparently, there had been clues everywhere.

They just never dared to entertain the idea.

No one would have thought that the prince of C Island would fall in love with an ordinary girl.

It only took one girl, Nina, to connect the two people.

But now, look how far they'd come!

Too flustered to function, Elaine quietly retreated downstairs.

Hearing her approaching footsteps, Adams looked up and found the plate of fruits in her hands untouched. "Didn't they eat any?"

Elaine shook her head absentmindedly.

"Just forget it!" Only then did Adams notice that she was as pale as a ghost. He quickly got up and walked up to her, his face creased with worry. He took the plate of fruits from her and asked, "What happened? Did you catch a cold?"

Elaine shook her head slowly and sank into her seat dejectedly. She sighed softly, as though she was exhausted.

'How could this be?

How did Michelle fall in love with Leon?'

The two of them weren't kids anymore. This wasn't just some puppy love.

As her mind raced, Elaine's frown deepened.

"What happened? Does it have anything to do with our daughter?" Adams sat down next to her, accidentally squashing his phone in his back pocket. He shifted his weight, pulling his phone out from under him.

Only then did he find out that he had over a dozen new messages.

Elaine, noticing her husband's flashing phone, raised her head and asked, "Who is texting you? Did something happen at the research institute? Take care of it first."

"It's Baylor." Adams frowned.

Something was wrong.

"What happened?" Elaine asked. "Baylor and his wife live in their daughter and son-in-law's house, don't they? They have rented the house to Tim. I think they will be celebrating the New Year with them this year."

Adams sighed. "His daughter Crystal hasn't been doing well recently. Baylor told me she's been under a lot of pressure, tending to a lot of social activities daily. Two days ago, Baylor heard his daughter and son-in-law quarreling in secret. When they confronted them about it, Crystal just smiled and said they were fine. But Baylor could see that Crystal's eyes were red and swollen from crying. It broke his heart.

Baylor said that there are many rules his son-in-law's family. He hasn't seen Crystal smile in a very long time. He felt sorry for her, but he didn't know how to help her. His son-in-law is even busier with his social engagements." Adams let out another heavy sigh.

He didn't need to explain what happened next; Elaine understood immediately.

"It is hard when two people from different classes fall in love. Each class has its own way of life." His last words made Elaine's body go stiff. She quickly picked up the plate of fruits and started bounding for the stairs.

From behind her, Adams said loudly, "It doesn't matter if they don't want to eat."

But Elaine just ignored him

She dashed up the stairs, making sure her slippers slapped against the floor noisily to announce her approach.

When she reached Michelle's door, she knocked loudly.

"Mom?" Michelle, clutching three thick notebooks, turned towards the door.

Leon, who was standing next to Michelle, turned around and greeted her.

"Well..." Elaine plastered a smile on her face.
