Chapter 366

Loretta, however, could not help but say, “Are you guys overthinking it? I think that Kaden seems to really like our Elsie. I don’t have any other requests now. It’s fine as long as he can treat Elsie sincerely.”

“You’re right.”

Valeria did not say anything else. She knew she could not convince Loretta, even though Loretta was her mother.

On the other side, Clayton fell silent.

In the bedroom upstairs.

Elsie returned to the room and threw herself on the bed. She buried her face in the pillow and cried loudly.

She felt that everyone she saw now was mocking her, especially Valeria.

She and Valeria were both the daughters of the Maddox family, but Valeria had found Hackett, the son of the wealthiest family, and she had found Kaden, a pauper. Even the cost of holding her wedding had to be paid by the Maddox family.

How could it make her balanced?

Then, Kaden followed her in and closed the door.

However, Kaden did not rush forward to comfort her like before. Instead, he slowly sat by the bed and watched as Elsie’s shoulders trembled slightly.

Anyway, they had registered their marriage. There would be no accidents basically. Kaden only needed to perform normally.

It was just that Elsie’s emotional management had been too poor these past few days. He was already running out of patience.

Elsie heard Kaden sitting on the bed, but he did not coax her. Furiously, she stood up and shouted at Kaden, “Get out! Don’t bother me!”

“Elsie, don’t be sad anymore. It’s all in the past. Now that we’ve registered our marriage and are legally married. Don’t think about the past anymore,” Kaden said perfunctorily.

However, Elsie was even angrier when she heard Kaden’s words. She directly pushed Kaden and said, “What’s your attitude? We just registered our marriage, and you think you’re really our family’s live–in son–in–law? You also despise me, don’t you? You despise me because that old bastard slept with me!”

Kaden remained indifferent. “But I should be grateful to that old man. How could you be with me if it weren’t for him?” he said with a smile.

Elsie was stunned as soon as she heard what Kaden said. Then, she flew into a rage. “What do you mean? Are you mocking me? I’m only worthy of being with you now?”

Because she had slept with that old bastard, she had no choice but to choose Kaden,

Kaden smiled without saying anything. He slowly stood up and walked away to pour her a glass of water. Then he handed it to her and said, “Drink some water, and calm down.”

Elsie raised her head and glared at Kaden. “What did you mean just now?”

“I don’t mean anything. Elsie. I know you feel sick at the thought of that gardener, but it is also the price you must pay for falling in love with someone else. It’s fine as long as you get over it. It’s no big deal. I don’t mind anyway,” said Kaden. His

tone was understated as if he was talking about something unimportant.

Elsie widened her eyes in surprise. She said, “What did you say? Are you speaking in human language? What do you mean by the price of falling in love with someone else?! So that’s what you think of me!”

“Isn’t that so? Nothing would have happened if you didn’t have such feelings for Hackett.”

Kaden’s tone was tinged with resentment. Although he had planned it all, the man that night was none other than himself.

However, his heart had long turned cold when he saw Elsie coming to the hotel willingly.

Elsie, the innocent and cute girl in his heart, had actually become Hackett’s bootlicker. Therefore, he had slept with Elsie that night, but Elsie thought that she had gone to sacrifice herself to Hackett!

The more Kaden thought about it, the angrier he became!

Elsie, who claimed she only liked him, actually fell in love with someone else at ease. She even offered herself to Hackett.

Elsie’s eyes were filled with shock. She really did not expect Kaden to say such a thing. So was his previous nonchalant appearance all fake? Did he actually mind?

“Don’t marry me if you mind! Who cares! I have plenty of men who want me!” Elsie felt a blow to her self–esteem. Even Kaden, who had been his bootlicker, despised her now.

Kaden was still smiling. “I told you I don’t mind, but you must let it go. It’s going to be painful for both of us, okay?”

“No!”

Elsie felt that Kaden had changed. He was a completely different man from the gentle senior he used to be. She said, “You’ve changed. You wouldn’t have said such things in the past, let alone treated me with such an attitude.”

“Haven’t you changed, too? You’ve always only liked me, but now you like Hackett, and you like him so much that you want to give him your first time.”

Kaden had been holding the glass of water in his hand, but Elsie had no intention of taking it. Therefore, Kaden could only put the glass aside and say, “We still have to live our lives. Let’s move forward and stop holding on to those things. Anyway, they can’t be changed. You get some rest. I’m going home. I have to work with my father–in–law on our wedding at the end of the month.”

Then Kaden turned around and left the bedroom, closing the door behind him.

The moment he closed the door, Elsie’s emotions collapsed. She picked up a pillow and slammed it fiercely against the door, roaring, “Fuck off!”

Now, even the pauper dared to bully her. Why?

Valeria went to the balcony after taking a shower. The breeze blew her long hair. She planned to dry her hair with the natural wind and then go back to sleep.

She even heated up a glass of milk to drink. She had just taken a sip when her phone rang.

It was Hackett. She picked up the phone and said, “What’s the matter?”

“I’m outside the Maddox family. Is Alex asleep?” said Hackett.

“Yes, he is. What are you doing outside the Maddox family?”

Hackett’s tired and low voice came from the other end of the phone. “Can you come out and accompany me for a while? I’m a little upset.”

Valeria frowned slightly. After a few seconds of silence, she said, “Give me a moment. I’ll change my clothes.”

Then, she returned to the bedroom and changed into a random set of clothes. She arrived at the entrance of the Maddox family and saw Hackett’s luxury car.

Hackett was leaning against the car with a cigarette in his mouth. The smoke blurred his handsome face, but she could still feel his frustration.

Perhaps it was because too many things had happened recently, Valeria could not help but sigh. She walked to Hackett and said, “It’s so late. Why aren’t you going back home?”
