Chapter 250 You''re Not Going Anywhere.


    Ellie''s irritation boiled over. Her family''s sudden intrusion had caught her off guard. She knew her parents well -they were vain people and only valued their


    son.


    She wanted to get her parents and her brother out of here immediately. She didn''t want them toe back


    ever again.


    But their greedy eyes, like vultures, picked apart the apartment, Hank''s especially,


    He conducted a mental inventory of every fixture, every piece of furniture, clearly wanting to im them as his


    Tori poked Ellie''s ribs, her voice dripping with venom. "Why are you staring at Hank like that? Do you think we''d stoop to taking your things?"


    Hank, havingpleted his tour of the bedrooms, eximed, "Three guest rooms, each a pcepared to our master bedroom! Ang has already agreed to live here with me after the wedding."


    He then turned to Ellie, adopting a mock-solemn tone. "You''ll give me this apartment, right? Consider it a debt repaid to Mom and Dad."


    "I''ve told you already. This ce is not mine. I can''t give it to you," Ellie retorted, her voice sharp as a shard of ss, "I''m renting this ce from a friend."


    Her family members'' faces darkened in an instant. Hank roared, "Liar! The whole vige sings your praises as a money-minting designer! And you im to still live in a rented ce? I don''t believe you!"


    Tori also eximed, "After all our sacrifices for you, you turn your back on us! We ask for a mere apartment, and you refuse us? You''ve left the family for years, and now that you are finally back, you need to repay us! Just tell me how you will repay us!"


    Leif, lowering his voice to a conspiratorial whisper, said to Tori, "Perhaps the bastard''s father owns this ce?"


    Tori''s eyes gleamed with understanding. She nodded before saying to Ellie, "Tell me who is the father of your


    child!"


    Ellie red at them. She didn''t want her family to know Jayceon''s identity.


    If they knew that Patrick''s father was Jayceon, who belonged to one of the four powerful families in Shirie, they would just push her to marry him.


    "Patrick''s father is just an ordinary person," Ellie said.


    Hank sneered, "Nonsense. An ordinary person can''t afford this ce! The rent alone must be over ten thousand


    a month."

    Patrick''s eyes, tinged with fury, zed. He raised his small fists and whispered, "Let''s forcefully throw them out! I think I am a good fighter,"


    Just then, a resonant voice sliced through the charged atmosphere.


    "Ellie, aren''t you going to invite me in?" Jayceon leaned against the doorframe, a takeout bag swinging from his fingertips.


    Ellie''s frustration grew, "Why are you here?"


    She attempted to steer him towards the elevator quickly, wanting him to leave.


    But she was toote. Her parents and brother, seeing Jayceon, rushed over. Hank seized Jayceon by the arm. "You''re not going anywhere!"


    Leif jabbed his finger at Jayceon. "You must be the father of that child! You''ve


    dared to show your face, I won''t let you leave just like this."


    Jayceon, with a calm demeanor, dislodged Hank''s grasping hand, his eyes scanning the trio in their ordinary


    attire.


    He soon realized that they were Ellie''s family.


    He smiled politely. "Nice to meet you. I''m Jayceon Russell, Patrick''s father. Let''s
