girl before him silently .
Stellan didn’t press Elysia further .
After lening go , he made no additional moves and simply gazed at the girl
However , he was confused .
She’s obviously way prettier than Rowena , so why the hell is she hiding her face under all that hair ? And this hairstyle !
Ugh , it’s hideous – totally Rowena’s doing .
I bet .
At least her face isn’t covered in all that crap she usually smears on .
Small blessings , I guess !
Of course , it wasn’t just Stellan who noticed it .
Quite a few viewers in the live stream also reacted with shock when Stellan pushed Elysia’s hair back to reveal her face .
[ Wait , that’s Elysia ? She wasn’t this pretty before , was she ? Before joining the stream , I even searched for her pictures on Google to prepare myself .
I didn’t want to be traumatized again , so Lavoided looking at her face the whole time .
]
[ I’m not gonna lie .
My attention has been on the Drayton brothers or Stellan’s looks the past few days .
Now that I’ve seen Elysia’s face , suddenly these men don’t seem that appealing anymore .
Ugh , I just want to hug her ! ]
[ Bunch of amateurs ! Let me show you all what a real beauty looks like ! ( Image attached ).
]
[ Wow ! Which country is she from ? Though she’s more tanned , if you look closely , she actually resembles dear Elysia ! ]
[ Resembles my ass .
No one can compare to Elysia ! ]
[ She’s from our country ! I can’t believe it ! This girl really looks a lot like Ava .
Too bad Ava already retired ]
However , since Ava’s eye color , hair color , and skin tone were too different from that of Elysia , the discussion didn’t go on for long .
But the live stream continued .
Elysia suppressed her sadness , shrugged her shoulders , and casually asked , “ Shouldn’t you at least give me a reason ! I’ve told you I
I don’t know you .
so why are you helping me ?”
Seeing her small and fragile figure trying so hard to be tough , Stellan couldn’t quite explain what he was feeling .
He didn’t even know why himself .
He just suddenly found her interesting .
Besides , he really didn’t like Rowena .
I decided that he would take care of Elysia for now .
Even if he lost interest later , at least he would make life harder for that annoying Rowena , especially since he had not made her pay for dragging him into that human trafficker’s den three years ago .
That was w
it was on his mind , but what came out of his mouth was something different
what
“ I don’t want to marry Rowena , but … I’m still a little afraid of Rupert .
He keeps trying to make us spend time together , and it’s honestly a headache .
Of course , if you’re willing to help me drive Rowena out of your family .
I’d really appreciate it ,” said Stellan ,
“ Il do it ,” Elysia agreed without hesitation upon hearing the last part .
ver say Rowena would marry you ? You’re
At this point in the live stream , Fenwick couldn’t help but speak up , questioning Stellan , “ When did we ever the only son of the Rookwood family .
How could my dad have the power to intimidate you? ”
Rupert was instantly displeased upon hearing that , “ What do you mean I don’t have the power ! I’m his elder and his future father – in – law .
Without my approval , do you think Elysia could marry him ? ”
Stellan was tired of arguing or making up excuses , so he simply cut them off and said , “ Keep watching ”
Just then , there was a loud banging on the door behind Elysia , followed by Rowena’s shrill voice .
“ Stellant – Stellan , are you in there ? It’s our turn for the opening dance ! ”
Rowena was nearly livid .
She had searched every comer of the house except Elysia’s room .
She had always suspected Elysia was after Stellan and dreaming of becoming Stellan’s wife .
“ Elysia … Elysia , can you open the door? I know y
you’re in there ” shouted Rowena .
Elysia’s heart raced with panic as a flurry of thoughts overwhelmed her .
If Rowena called others over and found her alone with Stellan in the room .
there was no doubt Rowena would twist the sitiation to make baseless accusations against her .
Her father’s disappointment would only deepen , and any chance of leaving this place would slip further away .
The looming fear of being sent to a special school gripped her , making her situation feel even more hopeless .
“ Shh , I’ll hide u
under the bed .
Go and open the door , Stellan whispered into her ear .

The door slowly opened , and Rowena impatiently scanned the room .
But all she saw was a small and shabby room , which was a far cry from her own luxurious space .
No way anyone could be hiding there .
A smug smile immediately appeared on Rowena’s face , and the panic from before disappeared completely
“ Tsk , as if Brother Stellan would ever be interested in coming to a place like this .
But , dear sister , today’s my graduation party .
Why are you hiding here ! Come on out Dad’s even prepared a big chocolate cake for the occasion ,” said Rowena .
She had spent so much time getting dolled up and was counting on Elysia to show up so she could humiliate her in front of everyone .
Without her as a contrast , how could she shine ? Therefore , she had to drag Elysia out somehow .
Elysia responded with a smile and said , “ You once abandoned your brother in a human trafficker’s village .
Then you stole Torin’s test admission ticket .
You drugged Dad’s milk , and Fenwick nearly drank it .
“ And then you blinded your brother’s eyes and tried to scald Torin with hot soup while he had a fever .
Now , Dad’s deaf and blind because you .
poisoned him again , didn’t you ? ”
