Kapitel 158: A Swift Return

When Ella received the call from the maid, she was just returning home from school, walking into the Carter Family building with Chloe by her side.

After hanging up, Ella's face was lit with a smile, clearly in a good mood. Brianna must have been suffering—what a satisfying thought!

"Why are you smiling so happily?" Chloe teased with a grin. "Did Mr. Nelson call you for a secret rendezvous?"

"Ugh, you and your nonsense! It wasn't him!" Ella laughed, explaining that Eric had been extremely busy lately, gathering "classified news" about James and the other shareholders.

Of course, if there wasn't any dirt to dig up, Eric and his team were more than capable of creating some negative press!

As a result, Eric hadn't been able to take Ella to their new house in the past few days.
