CHAPTER 566 STUDYING ABROAD
However, upon pushing the door open, she was caught off guard by the scene inside. Yozan was standing amidst shattered glass, showing no intention of moving.
"Can you please stop showing up?" Cecelia's face turned pale and her emotions were unstable. "I've told you that I don't want to see you again. Don't you understand human language?"
"I..." Yozan had no intention of leaving just like that. He even wanted to step forward and grasp her restless hand.
"Don't come any closer!" Cecelia was completely annoyed. She had never encountered such an insistent man. "I've already told you that I have never loved you. We were just friends with benefits. Do you know what that means?"
"Cecelia, don't you think what you're saying is disgusting?" Yozan couldn't care less about her pregnancy and the need to care for a pregnant woman's emotions. He simply said what was on his mind.
"You mean you've never liked me?"
"Of course not. I've told you countless times. I hope you can realize the true nature of our relationship. I even went back home to avoid you. Can't you see that?" All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
"I don't believe it. Why did you have my child then?"
Speaking of the child in her belly, Cecelia couldn't help but show a contemptuous smile. "Yozan, just
because I'm pregnant with your child doesn't mean I want to be with you. Do you think I would use a child to threaten you to be with me? Don't be silly. It's just a child. The Yhorman Family can afford to raise it. Or is it that you think this child is important and must be taken back to the Harley Family?"
"You know that the one I really care about isn't the child."
Cecelia didn't seem to understand as she asked, "Mr. Harley, are you worried that you won't have an heir? Surely you won't be lacking in that aspect..."
"You!"
"What about me? Don't you understand what I'm saying?" With that, Cecelia no longer wanted to look Yozan in the eye.
Pointing at the door and lifting her chin, she said, "Mr. Harley, please leave now and don't ever show up again."
Yozan clenched his fists, making a cracking sound.
"What are you waiting for? Do I have to personally show you out?" Cecelia was very clear in her goal to drive him away. As soon as the words fell, a loud slamming sound echoed through the room, almost scaring her. Luckily, he was gone.
Cecelia calmed her racing heart and turned her head only to meet Elspeth's scrutinizing gaze.
"Why did you say something so insincere?" Cecelia's attempt to deceive was exposed, causing her to
feel a little ashamed as she touched her nose.
"What are you talking about? I just don't want him to bother me again. I don't really like him that much."
"Is that so?"
"Yes... Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Miss Lynwood, are you here to visit me today?" Cecelia and Elspeth didn't know each other, but she was grateful to Elspeth for jumping into the water to save her.
As for that guy... Let's not mention him.
"Yes, Yelena invited me to visit you. I have some free time, so I came. By the way, where's Yelena?" Elspeth looked around but didn't see Yelena anywhere.
Elspeth looked at Cecelia, who shrugged helplessly. "Don't you know that that couple is all lovey- dovey? They came empty-handed, so I sent them to buy some fruit downstairs."
Just as she finished speaking, Yelena's clear voice exploded at the door. "Cecelia, we're back!"
"Great, did you buy the mangosteens I wanted?"
Yelena presented a pile of fruits to Cecelia with a beaming smile. "Of course! Not just mangosteens, but every fruit you love to eat. You have no idea how good Hank's memory is; he remembers every fruit you like!"
Cecelia's eyes glistened briefly before she smiled. "That's good then. After all, we grew up together. If
he couldn't remember these things, I'd be mad."
Cecelia cast a glance at Hank, who looked normal, and she felt slightly relieved.
"When you're discharged tomorrow, I'll take you out for a meal to make up for it," Yelena said, holding Cecelia's hand like she had found a kindred spirit. The two women had similar personalities, and they chatted non-stop. It wasn't until Elspeth cleared her throat in the corner to announce her presence that Yelena noticed her.
"Elspeth, you're here!" Yelena's eyes lit up, and she was about to rush over and pounce on Elspeth when Elspeth put a finger to her forehead.
"Slow down. Don't fall over."
Yelena sat down next to Elspeth and picked up a peach to eat. "When did you get here?"
"I've been here for about 10 minutes," Elspeth replied.
"It's weird that Yozan didn't come today. How rare," Yelena said after taking a bite.
"Does he usually come?" Elspeth asked.
When the topic was brought up, Yelena was so eager to talk about it that she didn't even bother eating her peach. "Yozan is really persistent. He keeps coming even after being rejected every time," Yelena said with a sigh.
"He was here just now," Elspeth said.
Yelena was momentarily stunned before realization struck her. "No wonder the place is such a mess. I thought it was Cecelia who accidentally broke the glass. Looks like things got pretty heated. It's okay, I'll clean up in a bit."
Elspeth had observed everyone carefully and thought that this matter was not so simple, and even Cecelia seemed more complex than she appeared. "So, what's the deal between Cecelia and that man?"
Yelena was about to speak, but Cecelia interjected loudly, "Hey, can you two please consider the feelings of the people involved? Shouldn't I be the one to explain my own affairs?"
Yelena indeed felt like she crossed the line, so she awkwardly smiled and stuck out her tongue. "Okay, you go ahead."
Cecelia sighed deeply. "Here's the thing..."
As Elspeth listened to her account, she suddenly felt like she knew this story all too well. In fact, Elspeth could still vividly recall it herself.
Four years ago, Cecelia left Damoria to study abroad. It was her first time traveling so far from home, and she never thought she would leave her family or her neighbor Hank, but she wanted to pursue her dreams, so going abroad was the best choice. So, she said goodbye to her parents and Hank, and set out on her journey to a foreign country. The Yhorman Family was a big family involved in business, so they naturally wouldn't let her suffer out there alone. They arranged everything for her, but...
