Chapter 409: Chapter 409

Elijah Hayes pleaded with a tearful face, "Master Estelle, please give it back to me."

Estelle Sterling gritted her teeth, looking at Elijah, and asked, "Did Hades Faulkner really ask you to give this ring to Faye Sterling?"

Elijah nodded. He had double-checked; it was indeed meant for Faye Sterling.

When he heard it, he was also quite shocked. After all, Alaric Faulkner had been distancing himself from Faye Sterling and getting closer to Eleanor Sterling, even being with her.

Who would have thought that overnight, everything would change?

Upon hearing Elijah’s confirmed answer, Estelle Sterling was so angry her teeth were grinding. But as her eyes shifted, she suddenly thought of something and calmed down entirely.

Estelle Sterling shoved the ring back into Elijah’s hand, saying, "Go and deliver it."

Caleb Faulkner looked at Estelle Sterling in disbelief, exclaiming in a low voice, "Estelle, are you crazy? Why are you letting Elijah deliver the ring?"

Originally, he intercepted Elijah to get hold of the item, but now Estelle Sterling was actively letting him deliver it out.

"You’re not allowed to leave! You can’t give that bad woman something!" Caleb Faulkner blocked Elijah’s path.

Estelle Sterling grabbed Caleb Faulkner, whispering in his ear, "Caleb, don’t worry, this is actually a great opportunity."

Caleb Faulkner was puzzled, "Huh? What great opportunity?"

"Think about it, Sister Eleanor hasn’t fully accepted Hades Faulkner. Now, if he’s giving gifts to another woman, it might provoke her to respond."

Caleb Faulkner’s eyes lit up. That’s right, Eleanor’s mom was still considering marrying someone else last night; his dad had no standing anymore.

She should really be provoked a bit, so she understands her own feelings.

Elijah was watching these two kids whispering and had no idea what they were plotting, with a face full of puzzlement. Follow current novels on NovєlFіre.net

Could they give him back the ring first, so he could complete his task?

After the two kids finished their discussion, they weren’t upset anymore, wearing cheerful smiles.

Caleb Faulkner turned around and said to Elijah, "Go deliver it."

Elijah was stunned, agreeing just like that?

But he breathed a sigh of relief; luckily, the two kids didn’t start a commotion, otherwise it would have been troublesome for him.

Caleb Faulkner said, "While you’re at it, order nine hundred and ninety-nine roses to send along."

"Wha...what?" Elijah’s expression froze.

Why did Alaric Faulkner have a change of heart overnight, and now even Caleb Faulkner had betrayed him?

"What are you waiting for, go! And remember to say it’s from my dad."

Estelle Sterling clipped something onto his clothes and handed back the velvet box, "Alright, off you go."

Elijah was even more at a loss for words. It was bad enough Caleb Faulkner betrayed, but why did Estelle Sterling too...

Could it be that living with the Faulkner Family for so long, he too wanted a different mom?

Finally, Elijah came to his senses and left, holding the box with an incredulous look.

After Elijah left, Estelle Sterling immediately connected to the surveillance video, and the footage instantly appeared on the computer.

It showed him driving, with the view moving forward from the driver’s seat.

Caleb Faulkner stroked his chin and asked, "Estelle, will this trick really work? Will Eleanor’s mom really be provoked?"

Estelle Sterling shook her head, "I don’t know. We’ll see, maybe it will. If not, we’ll think of another way."

Elijah drove the car into the medical academy, carrying a huge bouquet of roses.

Immediately, he attracted the attention of many people.

"Wow, that’s a lot of roses!"

"Which rich guy is courting a girl? It’s too extravagant!"

"I wonder who it’s for. Could it be for the new campus queen, Eleanor Sterling?"

"I think it might be! Ever since she showed up, everyone has gone crazy."

"Let’s follow and see if these roses are really for her."
