Chapter 136: Chapter 136: Her Lover Appears, and the Scumbag Goes Crazy!
Sebastian Ford narrowed his eyes, a jealous rage boiling within!
His little fox sure is wild!
In the morning, she ended the engagement, and by the afternoon, she’s already surrounded by eager admirers!
"Ha, I also want to know why."
Compared to himself, lurking without recognition, how could Damian Lowell meet Eleanor Valerius openly and alone?
Sebastian Ford was dark and furious.
"Uncle?"
Julia Ford instinctively felt afraid, why did it seem like her uncle was even angrier than she was?
Whose beloved was really being snatched away here!
"Why are you coming to me about Eleanor Valerius’s matters?"
Sebastian Ford’s lowered voice held a restrained fury.
Upon hearing this, Julia Ford was also taken aback, furrowing her brows as she explained: "I don’t know... It’s just that Eleanor Valerius has always been by your side, like she belongs to you.
I don’t know what I was thinking, but I directly called you. I thought you should manage Eleanor Valerius! You’re her elder; she should, of course, obediently listen to you!"
It must be said, Sebastian Ford was very satisfied upon hearing this.
"Yes, Eleanor Valerius should listen to me."
This was only fueling his possessiveness and desire for control.
"Exactly, you need to teach her well!"
Julia Ford, with the temperament of a spoiled young lady, pouted, staring intently at Eleanor Valerius and Damian Lowell in the café.
She didn’t notice that her uncle’s eyes were practically fuming with jealousy.
...
Eleanor Valerius and Damian Lowell chose a mall for their meeting.
She was well aware that just today she ended her engagement with the Lancaster Family, and in Aethelgard, it was a hot topic.
The more she met secretly with the opposite sex, the easier she became a subject of gossip.
So, instead, she decided to openly meet Damian Lowell.
"Thank you, Lawyer Lowell, for your concern for me."
Because she had used him, Eleanor Valerius wanted to express her gratitude when they met.
"I saw today’s news, it said the Lancaster Family was sued by the Ford Family for commercial fraud. If you need legal support, I can help you."
Damian Lowell had no standing to do anything significant for her.
"The matter has been resolved, and I cannot afford Lawyer Lowell to help me with the divorce."
Eleanor Valerius’s smile had a distinct sense of detachment.
She didn’t rely on Sebastian Ford proactively, let alone ask Damian Lowell as a mere friend for help.
Growing up in the Valerius Family taught her the harshest lesson.
In the world, there’s no such thing as free, unilateral giving.
She didn’t want to beg, nor did she want to owe anyone, so she chose to make a deal with Sebastian Ford.
Damian Lowell knew this was why, as a mere friend, he could not earn Eleanor’s trust.
Unless he was her Vincent.
"Miss Valerius, after the divorce, can you freely decide on your matters?"
"I have always been free."
Eleanor Valerius didn’t want to expose her wounds in front of him.
"I also wish you can have the free life you desire."
Damian Lowell’s gentle gaze behind his silver-framed glasses seemed somewhat obscured.
Subsequently, Eleanor always found Damian Lowell’s presence to be ambiguous.
Both familiar and strange, real yet contradictory.
"Thank you."
But she didn’t delve deeply, lowering her head to drink milk tea, thinking about ending the meeting soon.
At this moment, Damian Lowell gazed at her, so close, his breath heavy and restrained.
Lately, he was responsible for the Sinclair Family’s cooperation with the Ford Family, learning about the Ford Family through Julia.
Relying on his own strength, he could never shake Sebastian Ford’s power in Aethelgard.
To seek revenge, he was prepared to sacrifice everything.
Therefore, he couldn’t give Eleanor Valerius a sense of security, nor could he ask her to trust him.
Instead, Eleanor Valerius was now under Sebastian Ford’s occupying protection.
...
CEO’s office.
Mason Monroe knew that Master Ford’s mood was extremely terrifying now.
He had been holding a document for half an hour without signing it.
Most important, Master Ford kept his eyes on his phone. Not everyone dared to disturb his private number.
On the contrary, Master Ford had been waiting all day for a disturbance that never came.
Sebastian Ford’s expression was gloomy, and his heart even gloomier.
Because of the video Julia Ford sent him, he couldn’t shake the image of Eleanor Valerius and Damian Lowell meeting face to face from his mind.
Was the coffee really that good?
She even had a slice of cheesecake.
Ha, how nice.
He wanted to destroy every café in Aethelgard!
Sebastian Ford chuckled darkly, his thin lips taking it out on Mason Monroe: "Mason, I don’t have the patience to wait a week, send the Lancaster Family on its way within these two days."
Retaliating against her ex-fiancé was a job for her lover to accomplish.
He wouldn’t believe Eleanor Valerius had no reaction at all!
"Yes."
Mason Monroe had no sympathy for the Lancaster Family’s plight.
Their bankruptcy could at least lead to Master Ford and Miss Valerius meeting, it was a worthy end.
However, the Lancaster Family didn’t know the real reason for their quick demise.
All the news in Aethelgard was ing that offending Master Ford made them the second Lowell Family to fall.
...
When Eleanor Valerius returned home, she saw Jenson Lancaster being driven out by Regina Jennings.
"Eleanor has nothing to do with the Lancaster Family anymore, so get lost!"
Regina Jennings, with her calculating eyes, didn’t want anything affecting Eleanor Valerius’s future prospects.
At this moment, Jenson Lancaster saw Eleanor return, weak in the knees like before, and immediately knelt down.
"Eleanor... Miss Valerius! Please help the Lancaster Family, I beg you!"
How could she let such trash who came crawling back get away!
Eleanor Valerius blinked at Regina Jennings and said, "Mom, let me say a few words to Young Master Lancaster. It’s only right to part on good terms."
Standing just outside the doorway and off camera, she spoke with a smile that cut like a knife: "Is Young Master Lancaster pleading sincerely? I remember you insulted and hit me."
"I’m sorry, everything in the past is my fault, and I’m giving it back to you now!"
Kneeling before her, Jenson Lancaster slapped himself multiple times, crying and pleading, "Master Ford wants the Lancaster Family bankrupt and my parents jailed, only you can ask Master Ford to spare us."
The Lancaster Family was already the most hated in Aethelgard.
"I save you?"
After watching Jenson Lancaster slap himself dozens of times, Eleanor Valerius finally smiled and revealed, "Do you not realize the downfall of the Lancaster Family was caused by my lover seeking revenge on you? You are already incapacitated, the status of Young Master Lancaster is gone, and I feel so relieved and satisfied!"
"It’s your lover taking revenge on the Lancaster Family?"
Jenson Lancaster froze, his face red and swollen from the slaps, completely breaking down!
"Eleanor Valerius, are you fucking blind! Choosing that old and ugly man over me, a young and handsome rich second generation!
Can an old man do it without Viagra? You haven’t experienced how great I am... I—I’m done, so you’ll never have that pleasure in your life! Haha, regret it! That’s your lifetime regret!"
Jenson Lancaster was collapsing.
He hated it!
Why hadn’t he slept with Eleanor Valerius sooner, a regret for his lifetime!
"My lover..."
Soon, Eleanor Valerius saw Sebastian Ford’s car parked at the corner.
"He’s here."
She turned with a smile and ran towards him.
At this moment, Jenson Lancaster scrambled to his feet, eager to see how inferior Eleanor’s lover was compared to him!
Sebastian Ford, sitting in the car, was surprised to see Eleanor Valerius running towards him.
He couldn’t even remember he was supposed to be angry, opening the car door, eager to step out to meet her.
"Lover, don’t move!"
Eleanor Valerius called out.
The next moment, she rushed over, blocking Sebastian Ford from getting out of the car.
She wrapped around him coyly, as if they were intimate lovers.
As a result, Jenson Lancaster, running over and seeing this scene, felt utterly ashamed and froze on the spot.
Inside the luxurious car, the man was dressed in a suit, with one long leg stepping out, appearing tall and imposing.
His right hand wrapped around Eleanor Valerius’s waist, with fingers long and a wristwatch worth a fortune.
How could Eleanor Valerius’s lover be old and ugly?!
This was clearly a major figure in the Capital Circle!
Jenson Lancaster was stunned, mouth agape.
Clearly Eleanor Valerius used to be his fiancée.
How did he miss such a thing?
At this moment, Jenson Lancaster was filled with regret, beating his chest and going mad!!
