Chapter 405: Chapter 405

The night wind gently brushed against their bodies, seemingly capable of soothing the agitation in their hearts.

Eleanor Sterling looked at her son’s small figure, her heart slightly aching, her voice tinged with reluctance.

"Estelle, from now on you must obediently listen to Mr. and Mrs. Faulkner. The Faulkner Family is different from other places, don’t be mischievous, be good, remember to eat on time..."

The more Eleanor spoke, the more reluctant she felt. She sighed and stopped, lest she lose composure and start to cry.

Her son, whom she had raised, was being given to the Faulkner Family, and she truly couldn’t bear it.

But for Estelle Sterling’s future, she had to make this sacrifice.

Estelle Sterling looked up at Eleanor Sterling.

He rarely saw Eleanor so emotional. Why did her words to him now sound so much like saying goodbyes?

"Sister Eleanor, has something happened? You’re not going to tell me you have cancer, are you?" Estelle couldn’t help but ask, his little face falling.

The emotions Eleanor had been brewing were dispelled by his words. She suppressed all the emotions in her heart and managed a light smile.

"Nothing has happened, it’s just that I’m a bit uneasy about you being at the Faulkner Family, so I’m giving you a special reminder, lest you be naughty again."

Estelle, upon hearing this, stuck out his tongue, "I’m not naughty at all, Great-grandmother likes me very much."

"Really? That’s good."

It seemed that without her presence, Estelle was much more obedient, Eleanor chuckled lightly, relieved.

This way, she could leave with peace of mind.

Inside the car, Alaric Faulkner listened to Eleanor Sterling’s words completely and thoroughly!

His expression grew darker and darker, almost capable of dripping water, as chills spread inside the car.

Eleanor was not only Silas Hawthorne’s fiancée but called him out tonight just to land a blow on him.

And now she was even planning to leave her son and run away!

Thinking of that night when Eleanor was drunk, Alaric gritted his teeth.

Damn woman, she better not think she’ll escape from him.

Caleb Faulkner sensed the coldness emanating from Alaric, and he shivered, reassuring him, "Daddy, Eleanor Mommy probably won’t marry another man, don’t worry too much."

"Hmm." Alaric responded with a grunt, "Get out of the car and go back with Estelle."

Caleb opened the car door and got out, taking Estelle along into the Faulkner Family home.

Eleanor Sterling was walking back, Alaric Faulkner had already gotten out of the car, lazily leaning against the passenger door.

Moonlight cast a soft glow on his face, making his handsome features more distinguished, yet colder.

As Eleanor approached, he opened the passenger door, obviously indicating for her to sit there.

With no choice, Eleanor had to obediently sit inside.

She felt that Alaric’s mood wasn’t great right now, so it was better not to provoke him.

Seeing Eleanor obediently sit inside, Alaric smiled faintly.

So obedient? If only she were as obedient without thinking of running away.

Alaric returned to the driver’s seat, then started the car, and after pressing the accelerator, the car sped away like a flowing shadow!

Eleanor found the quiet atmosphere a bit unbearable, she reached out to play some music. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ n0velfire.net

Alaric suddenly asked, "What did Silas say to you?"

Alaric’s restless mood tonight was overshadowed once again.

Eleanor pursed her lips, indeed there wasn’t much to say, what should she say?

Alaric let out a low laugh.

As if mocking himself.

Afterward, he stopped speaking, and Eleanor made no sound either, maintaining this oppressive and quiet atmosphere until they reached the dormitory.

"I’ll go first, thank you for tonight."

After saying that, Eleanor eagerly got out of the car, only to be seized by the hand!
