Look at me, okay?
"Look at me, who has always been standing beside you. Please have mercy on me."
...
As he spoke, Oliver's eyes turned red.
He choked with sobs. Biting his lips, he trembled.
Elaine rounded her eyes in shock.
She pursed her lips, looking up at Oliver blankly.
After a long time, beads of tears rolled out of her big eyes.
More and more tears rolled down, which frightened Oliver.
He immediately regretted ever putting it so bluntly just now.
"I'm sorry, Elaine. I was wrong. I was just bullshitting...."
Elaine shook her head and cried, her small shoulders trembling.
"I ... I don't have feelings for him ... No, I don't!"
Screaming, Elaine pushed Oliver away and ran home. As she ran, she wiped her tears with her arms.
"Elaine! Elaine! I was wrong! Don't be sad ... I was totally wrong!"
Oliver hurriedly chased after Elaine, but he was shut out.
"Elaine, I'm sorry....I shouldn't have said that. Don't take it to heart. Please don't cry, okay? I was
wrong...."
Oliver sat down slowly next to the door of the Jones' and supported his cheeks in a dispirited manner.
Leaning against the door, Elaine was shedding tears inside the room.
Oliver's remarks were still ringing in her head.
He didn't belong to you. He would never belong to you....
You and he were from completely different worlds....
His father would never allow you to be together....
He didn't like you....
'Oliver is telling the truth, isn't he?'
Everything Elaine saw confirmed Oliver's ideas!
Emmett treated Elaine as dessert or a toy. When he was hungry, he would come to her to satisfy his
greed for food.
However, Emmett had affairs with other women and kept playing around.
When did she lose heart to Emmett secretly?
Wasn't she courting death?
She should forget Emmett!
She should give up!
Elaine leaned against the door and clutched her chest tightly, crying very sadly.
...
Two hours later....
"What is this blocking my door?"
Ellie, who was drunk, burped and kicked the object curled up in front of her house.
"You're a stray dog, aren't you? Damn it. I cannot even support myself. Get lost!"
Oliver looked up with a frown.
Was she Elaine's sister? She looked like a hoodlum.
With Afro hair, she wore her hair in braids. Meanwhile, she dressed bizarrely, and had smoky eyes,
which was scary.
Ellie kicked Oliver while staggering.
Ellie drank too much, so she felt dizzy. Fortunately, she managed to make it home.
"How can a girl come back so late?"
Oliver felt that he was like Ellie's brother-in-law. Like an elder, Oliver stood up to scold Ellie with his
hands rest on his wrist.
(⊙_⊙)
"Well, you are a male animal." Ellie was shocked. With a grin, she examined Oliver while staggering.
Giving a gulp, Ellie hugged Oliver's waist. Her breath smelt of alcohol. Then she said, "You look
handsome! I will keep you!"
Oliver almost fainted from anger.
"I'm your brother-in-law!" Ellie waved her hand away.
"I don't care what your name is. I want you to be my husband...."
Elaine, who had been in a daze inside the door, could not stand it any longer. She opened the door with
a creak and glanced at Ellie with her swollen eyes with embarrassment.
Oliver raised both of his hands, as if he surrendered, and explained, "I didn't hug her. She pounced
over ... I swear. I didn't pester her. Elaine, your sister is drunk."
Elaine was angry and embarrassed. She rolled her eyes and said angrily, "Then why are you standing
still? She's drunk, but you're not! Quickly bring her in!"
"What? Alright."
Oliver hurriedly helped Ellie into the room and placed Ellie on the bed under Elaine's command.
"No, I don't care.... No one can snatch this man from me.... He's mine.... This beautiful man is mine...."
...
Lying on the bed with her eyes closed, Ellie waved her hands and kept talking nonsense drunkenly.
Elaine blushed and walked out with Oliver.
"Why haven't you left yet? Why are you staying at my door? Go."
Elaine looked at her shoes and muttered.
Oliver scratched his hair with a look of shame.
"Didn't I make you cry? I don't dare to leave. I won't leave until you forgive me."
As Oliver spoke, he gently grabbed Elaine's hand and pouted coquettishly. "I was wrong. Don't be
angry with me, okay?"
His voice was soft and pitiful, like a kitten that no one wanted.
Elaine sighed. Her eyes were still red.
She choked out, "I'm not mad at you. I decide to make a fresh start and let bygones be bygones...."
Elaine intended to give up Emmett....
Elaine secretly sighed.
Oliver's eyes lit up. "Really?"
Elaine looked at Oliver and explained awkwardly.
"I still need to tell you one more thing. I don't love Emmett! Don't misunderstand me. I don't want you to
think that I have a crush on him!"
"Alright, you don't love him."
Oliver turned around and secretly smiled. 'Elaine, you are still reluctant to admit it.'
Could you really let it go, as if you were ripping off a page pf calendar?
...
Lying on the bed, Elaine rounded her eyes wide open. She was still worrying about this problem.
School was about to reopen in a few days. Elaine and Hazel were both very excited. They went
shopping during the day, especially Hazel. She bought a lot of things in the foreign trade store.
"Your boyfriend is so rich, yet you still buy these cheap clothes. What's wrong with you?"
Elaine murmured. Having a popsicle, she helped Hazel carry her belongings.
Hazel continued browsing clothes.
"My boyfriend is rich, but he won't give me all his money. Look. I'm here to pick expensive clothes.
Each will cost ten thousand! They are extravagant."
...
Elaine leaned over to take a look. Sure enough, clothes in such a big shop were surprisingly expensive.
One sleeveless jacket was worth more than 10,000 yuan.
Elaine stuck out her tongue and whispered, "Put down the clothes. It's too expensive. Let's hurry up
and leave."
Hazel wrinkled her nose. "We are just watching. It won't cost us money. What can they do to us?"
Then, Hazel picked up a skirt and loudly said, "Elaine, this dress suits you. Try it on!"
Elaine blushed.
Damn it. How naughty Hazel was! She still wanted Elaine to try on such an expensive piece of clothes.
"I ... I don't want to...."
Looking at a group of waiters, Elaine refused with her cheeks flushing red.
Hazel opened her eyes wide and said furiously, "How dare you not put it on? Why not? I ask you to try
it on. Do as I tell you!"
Elaine puffed up her pink cheeks and returned angrily, "Alright. You look so fierce! Let's see if anyone
wants to marry you or not!"
Hazel covered her mouth and secretly laughed. "Don't worry. If no one marries me, I'll scrounge free
meals off you. I may even steal your husband from you by the way."
Elaine was speechless as she walked into the fitting room with anger.
The fitting room in this big store was fancy and spacious. A sofa and exquisite shoes were offered.
Elaine studied the skirt for a while. She didn't figure out which the front side was, so she put it on
randomly.
"Hazel, I don't think this dress suits me. It's difficult to deal with."
As Elaine walked out, she kept complaining.
The door to the fitting room opened. As soon as Elaine came out, all present was shocked.
"Well...."
(⊙_⊙)
Especially Hazel, she rounded her eyes and opened her mouth wide.
"Oh, my God! Elaine, you can be a big star to walk on the red carpet! How stunning you are!"
The group of waiters came to themselves and praised Elaine who was extremely beautiful.
...
"That's right. Miss, the skirt flatters you."
"It's completely tailor-made for you!"
"You are so gorgeous!"
Elaine stood in front of the mirror in disbelief and was also astonished.
Sure enough, the effect was different.
This skirt was expensive, but it was worth every penny.
The mirror reflected an elegant and lively princess....
It was a skirt with the hemline at the knee. Elaine's legs appeared to be straight and long, looking
attractive.
With high waist, the dress flattered Elaine's slender waist and full breasts. The design of the V collar
made her neck look very long.
There were exquisite bouquets on her shoulders, which gave her a princess aura.
'Is this me?'
Elaine looked herself in the mirror and secretly asked herself.
'Can I be so beautiful?'
It was like a dream....
Emmett, who was inspecting the shopping mall, had a lot to do today.
The inspection time in the shopping mall was compressed into a total of ten minutes. In other words, he
would just walk around the various floors of the shopping mall and left.
Later, he would attend two important international conferences.
"Safe escape has always been inspected. There are people who are specially responsible for
inspecting it every day. In the past three months, the turnover of the shopping mall has increased by
three percent. Women's clothes...."
While Jasper paced fast to follow Emmett, he was reporting a financial
statement.
