Simon knew very well that what Elsa had donest time waspletely wrong.
But he could never forget the time they had clung to each other in the ruins. Now that everyone hated her, now that she was abandoned by all and about to die, how could he possibly turn his back on her?
“John betrayed her. I’ll take good care of her and stay with her until the end.”
“If it weren’t for Lizzy saving me, I’d already be dead. Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom–I can’t be ungrateful. And I don’t want you to keep targeting her!”
“You stupid boy! Have youpletely lost your mind?!”
Zoey was so furious she was gasping for breath, and Lily quickly helped her calm down.
Simon cared about Zoey too. Seeing her so worked up pained him, and he softened his tone. “Grandma, I really can’t just abandon/Elsa.”
“What she did to Lily before—she knows she was wrong. She’s already paid a terrible price. She’s sick… I hope you

can forgive her a little and let her spend herst days in peace…”
“Stubborn fool!”
Dennis was so angry he couldn’t even look at his foolish grandson. “You’re hopelessly stupid!”
“Simon, don’t you see how upset you’ve made your grandparents?”
Jamie’s face was dark with fury. “You’re blind, dumb, and easily deceived. I don’t even want to bother with you anymore. If you like being tricked and making a fool of yourself, then go do it somewhere else. Don’te home and make us miserable.”
“I, Jamie, have no such idiotic son! Take that slut and get out of here!”
“Dad!”
Seeing everyone turn on Elsa, Simon was about to explode with anger. He quietly pulled his hand away from Elsa’s grip and flopped onto the sofa.
“This is my house. Why should I be the one to leave?”
Lily was supposed to take responsibility for him. James

still hadn’t rified things between himself and Lily, so why should Simon be the one forced out? He didn’t want to admit how much he cared about Lily, so he couldn’t say these things aloud. He wanted James to step up and speak for himself.
“This brat is outrageous–unreasonable and impossible to deal with!”
Dennis kicked him again in rage. But after all, this was still his grandson. He couldn’t very well beat him to death, so he chose to ignore him.
Zoey realized that for now, there was no way to force the boy to leave. Knowing how much Lily hated Elsa, and not. wanting her mood spoiled, she quickly took Lily’s hand and led her toward the dining room.
“Lily, don’t let these flies and mosquitoes ruin your mood. I had them prepare all your favorite dishes. Let’s go have dinner!”
“By the way, did you ept James’s confession?”
Lily truly despised/Elsa and Simon. But this was the Bale family–she couldn’t very well throw Simon out. She didn’t look at him <i>or </i>Elsa again and obediently answered Zoey’s question. “James and I are dating now. We’ll remarry after some time.”

“Dating is good!”

At first, seeing Elsa had annoyed Zoey terribly. But once she heard Lily’s words, her face lit up with a broad smile.
“Yes, you shouldn’t remarry James right away. Date first, let him chase you properly, and once he proves himself to your satisfaction, then you can remarry!”
Mary and the others were also hoping for James and Lily to get back together. Seeing the young couple sweet and affectionate again, they felt happy as well.
Everyoneughed and chatted, treating Simon and Elsa in the living room as if they were invisible.
When no one invited her to dinner, Elsa’s eyes darkened. She noticed the two priceless bracelets on Lily’s wrist.
Before, Mary had treated her decently. She had once identally seen that red jade bracelet in Mary’s jewelry box. It was said Jamie had spent a fortune to win it at
auction.
If Mary had given Lily a bracelet, then surely Zoey must have as well. Which meant the other bracelet must havee from Zoey.
She was Simon’s savior. They should have repaid her

generously. But whenever she came to dine with the Bale family, neither Zoey nor Mary had ever gifted her such valuable jewelry.
She would be Simon’s wife in the future–the true mistress of the Bale family. Those two priceless bracelets should have been hers. Why should that cheap woman Lily be wearing them?
Yes, Zoey and Mary only treated Lily so well because of the bastard child in her belly. If that child were to disappear, if Lily were to lose her ability to have children. -just like Elsa had–the Bale family and the Luke family would never treasure her again.
Then, all the Bale family’s jewels and riches would belong to Elsa.
After dinner, Jamie, James, and Simon went to Dennis’s study.
Lily had drunk too much water that evening. After chatting for a while with Zoey and Mary, she headed toward the public restroom on the east side of the first floor.
