Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Lost! Master Ford Is Sour and Bitter Again
Eleanor Valerius felt like she had won.
But her erratic heartbeat was somewhat uncontrollable.
Why didn’t Sebastian Ford want to see her marry Jenson Lancaster?
Is possessiveness such a large side effect?
Could it be that... he had developed feelings for her over time?
Because she had once been foolishly moved, she didn’t want to be the only one to have feelings in this entangled bliss.
If Sebastian Ford liked her... even just a little, it would be her advantage.
However, was her anxiety just about not wanting to lose?
It seemed she was still hoping for Sebastian Ford’s affection?
Suddenly, Eleanor realized that her emotions were getting out of control, and she immediately stopped herself.
Feelings and men would only delay her steps towards freedom.
Eleanor’s mental state was really good.
Clear-headed, rational, never self-destructive.
She didn’t have a romantic mindset.
"Eleanor, the Lancaster Family’s ability to secure cooperation with the Ford Family was thanks to you, from now on, we’re like family."
At this moment, Regina Jennings received a generous gift from the Lancaster Family, her joy and greed unmasked.
Thinking of Eleanor’s value, even Jenson Lancaster had to endure her disloyalty.
...
At the Ford Group, in the CEO’s office.
Eleanor Valerius and Jenson Lancaster were here on behalf of the Lancaster Family to sign the contract.
Across the desk, Sebastian Ford, in a suit and tie, his handsome face devoid of any smile, exuded elegance and aloof arrogance with every move.
At this time, Jenson Lancaster was still flattering, completely unaware of the subtle atmosphere between Eleanor and Master Ford.
Sebastian Ford’s attitude was cold, flipping through the cooperation account documents sent by the Lancaster Family with a businesslike manner.
Eleanor also knew that the Lancaster Family’s accounts were falsified.
Falsifying company accounts is business fraud, and the Lancaster Family naively thought they could deceive Sebastian Ford.
On the surface, the Lancaster Family used fake documents to secure cooperation with the Ford Family, thinking they could prosper.
Unbeknownst to them, from the moment Sebastian Ford signed the contract, the Lancaster Family had already stepped into the Ford Family’s trap.
"Jenson, congratulations on the Lancaster Family reaching a project cooperation with the Ford Family."
Eleanor smiled brightly and genuinely felt good.
She had used the Ford Family to deal with the Lancaster Family and had the support and cooperation of Sebastian Ford.
The next moment, she smiled charmingly at Sebastian Ford, deliberately teasing him with her enchanting eyes.
Unexpectedly, Sebastian Ford rejected her gaze.
Although he appeared angry, in reality, he was hiding his panic.
Eleanor could easily influence him; he couldn’t control his own instability.
Since she said she wanted to break up last night, he had tossed and turned all night, already on the brink of defeat to her today.
Subsequently, Eleanor left the office with Jenson Lancaster.
The gaze behind her was both sour and begrudging, impossible to hide.
While waiting for the documents, Jenson Lancaster couldn’t resist wanting to find Eleanor’s paramour!
Among the secretaries, the most suspicious man was Mason Monroe.
He remembered that Sharon Sinclair had previously sent pictures suspecting Mason Monroe.
In Jenson Lancaster’s angry, jealous gaze, Mason Monroe came over with documents, dramatically dropping them on the floor.
Eleanor bent down to pick them up, her hand almost touching Mason Monroe’s.
As a result, Mason Monroe jumped away electrically, his expression terrified.
What a close call!
He almost got silenced by Master Ford!
"?"
Eleanor was stunned.
But she keenly sensed the dangerous gaze from Sebastian Ford, guessing what Mason Monroe was afraid of.
And she deliberately handed the document to Jenson Lancaster to make him suffer more.
"Jenson, see you tomorrow."
With a fake smile, Eleanor concealed her disgust for Jenson Lancaster.
Although she had proactively suggested advancing the wedding date, she wouldn’t let Jenson Lancaster near her for half a step.
She didn’t even bother pretending.
Now, Jenson Lancaster was patiently waiting to discipline Eleanor after their marriage.
Eleanor stayed behind to continue working.
Before getting off work, she took an unimportant document as an excuse and knocked on the office door.
Mason Monroe was originally ing work, but retreated quietly, knowing it was time to leave.
"Mr. Ford, is there anything else you want me... to do?"
Eleanor teased earnestly.
In fact, she just wanted to test Sebastian Ford’s attitude.
Sebastian Ford raised his eyes, his calm gaze reflecting her innocent, pure smile.
"No, Assistant Valerius, you can get off work."
He had no intention of keeping her or clinging to her.
"Oh."
Eleanor’s reaction was also calm.
She turned and left, without approaching or entangling with him.
Sebastian Ford’s eyes brimmed with anger, nearly losing control, a scene only Mason Monroe witnessed.
"Mr. Ford, actually my work can also be handed over to Assistant Valerius."
Mason Monroe really didn’t want to be the third wheel.
He also wanted to get off work!
However, Sebastian Ford squinted his eyes dangerously, arrogantly rejecting, "Eleanor Valerius is not that important! She should see my cold attitude towards her and reflect on her wrong choices from last night!"
"... Really?"
Mason Monroe didn’t dare to question further.
Master Ford, are you sure it’s Miss Valerius who’s being snubbed?
Isn’t it actually you being neglected?
Sebastian Ford couldn’t completely deceive himself; he was intentionally keeping distance from Eleanor Valerius, wanting to calm down!
...
Two days after the cooperation project between the Ford Family and the Sinclair Family was on hold.
Jasper Sinclair and Damian Lowell personally came to the Ford Family, restarting the cooperation planning between the two families.
"Mr. Ford, I have other business to attend to in Emberfall, and the Sinclair Family’s project will be handed over to Damian."
Damian Lowell sat on the sofa, blatantly watching Eleanor Valerius as she made coffee.
"I believe my cooperation with Miss Valerius will go very smoothly."
Suddenly, Sebastian Ford’s expression soured, suddenly responding, "Julia is responsible for the progress of the planning case, and there aren’t important matters requiring my assistant. She still needs to handle the cooperation between the Ford Family and the Lancaster Family, Lawyer Lowell, please talk to Julia if you have any matters."
Clearly, he was intentionally splitting up Damian Lowell and Eleanor Valerius’s opportunities for interaction.
As a love rival, he was more concerned about Damian Lowell.
Jenson Lancaster was like a fly circling around her, soon to be swatted away.
Eleanor Valerius was also present, but she never spoke.
She handed a cup of coffee to Sebastian Ford.
Sebastian Ford took a sip and frowned.
It was both sour and bitter, much like his current mood.
But he didn’t know that Eleanor Valerius had deliberately used the most sour coffee beans.
...
In the following week.
Eleanor Valerius was also busy.
Sebastian Ford had just driven Damian Lowell away, and Jenson Lancaster came around immediately afterward.
Due to the cooperation project, Eleanor Valerius’s interactions with Jenson Lancaster were within his sight.
Like a grain of sand, it left his eyes red with irritation!
Sebastian Ford was very, very bothered, not wanting to deal with her, yet waiting for her to coax him.
While he should be handling business matters, he was monitoring Eleanor Valerius’s phone, watching her interactions with Jenson Lancaster.
Witnessing everything, Mason Monroe thought it was terrifying.
He worried that Master Ford might go insane?
...
Regina Jennings was very satisfied with Eleanor Valerius’s value.
That day, she wanted to arrange for Ivy Valerius to attend a dinner party to entertain clients.
Ivy Valerius directly injured herself to enter the hospital, using this method to resist becoming a bargaining chip.
As a result, the Donovan Family’s bodyguards lying in wait at the dinner party didn’t catch Ivy Valerius.
"Young Master said to change the target and capture Eleanor Valerius tonight."
Today, Eleanor Valerius was at the Lancaster Family following up on the project.
When she confirmed that the Lancaster Family had already stepped into the trap waiting to be closed.
What she needed was Sebastian Ford’s action.
After 8 p.m., she was still at the Lancaster Family.
After days of their breakup, she called Sebastian Ford for the first time.
However, Sebastian Ford’s phone went to voicemail.
"Can you come pick me up? I’m waiting for your answer."
Eleanor Valerius walked to the parking lot, intending to sit in the car and wait.
However, before she could close the car door, it was rudely pushed open.
"Eleanor Valerius, long time no see."
Hearing this sinister voice.
Eleanor Valerius slowly turned her head, her eyes widening in terror as she saw who it was!
