“Yeah, Elijah said.
Nick leaned against the back of the chair and twirled the pen. He said leisurely, “Your niece
Can’t win against you, but aren’t you afraid that she’ll cause trouble?”
“It’s okay.”
Elijah was very calm. He even sounded like he wanted to support her.
Nick pursed his lips. “Alright, alright, alright. It’s one of my business, but you can’t betray me, right?”
“What?”
“Did you tell her that my name is Nickie Blake? Im so angry!”
“I didn’t say that,” Elijah replied calmly, his tone measured.
The pen in Nick’s hand suddenly fell to the ground, and he immediately felt a chill around
him.
He looked around and said, “To be honest, I plan to go to the church with my tomorrow!”
“You believe in this?”

“I didn’t believe it in the past, but I have to believe it now! Let me tell you, it’s really strange recently! Ever since Eleanor questioned me about the donation of children’s organs last time, I have had the same dream every night. “In the dream, I was lying on the operating table, and a seven–year–old girl raised a scalpel and wanted to cut out my kidney! The worst part is, her face looks exactly like Eleanor’s when she was a child!”
Every time Nick thought about it, he felt terrified.
Elijah’s voice turned cold. “Do you know what she looked like when she was a child?”
“After everything I’ve said, that’s the only part you caught?” Nick clutched his chest, nearly collapsing in exasperation.
“I’m hanging up.”
“I…” Nick grimaced at the sound of the call being hung up.

Chapter 87 Dinner
Eleanor and the other two returned from the hospital in the early morning.
She comforted Lily to sleep. Logan stood at the ide and blamed himself.
“Logan, you should sleep early too.”
“Eleanor, I have let you down.” Logan’s voice was very hoarse.

“Logan, my mother and I are really lucky to have met you. What happened today was not your fault.”
Eleanor poured him a glass of warm water.
Logan clenched his fists and sighed. “The Taylor family will come tomorrow. If you two don’t want to go, I can go alone.”
“No. Logan, we have to be there tomorrow, but no matter what I do, don’t interfere. Take good care of my mother, okay?” Eleanor stared at him and reminded him solemnly.
What are you…
“Logan, believe me,” Eleanor said.
“Alright, no matter what you do tomorrow, I’ll back you up. The Taylor family looks down on everyone because of Elijah!”
Logan’s fist smashed onto the mahogany table.
Lily whimpered and frowned. He quickly got up nervously to check.
Seeing this, Eleanor quietly left the room, giving the two space to show concern.
The next day.
Eleanor followed Lily and Logan to the restaurant.
Early in the morning, Lily pulled Eleanor aside to do her makeup, saying she didn’t want the Taylors to have any reason to laugh at her.
Hearing her hoarse voice, Eleanor couldn’t bring herself to refuse and let Lily dress her up.
Both of them were strikingly beautiful. With a little makeup, even though they had only slept for a few hours, they still attracted everyone’s attention the moment they appeared.
Zoey, who was originally chatting with the elders of the Taylor family, was instantly ignored.
She looked at Eleanor unhappily and leaned slightly toward Elijah beside her. She chuckled

and said, “Elijah, Eleanor’s makeup looks stuming today. I’m not very good at it. I just put on some sunscreen and came over. It looks like I have to learn from Eleanor.”
Elijah casually lifted his gaze, appearing indifferent, but the dominance and possessiveness in his eyes were unmistakable.
Eleanor was wearing a red dress with a brown belt. Her skin was fair and her figure was proportioned.
On her fair neck was an exquisite and slender platinum chain. Its subtle glimmer seemed to radiate from within her skin.
She had an alluring gaze.
Sensing Elijah’s gaze, Milena put her coffee cup down with a slight force and attracted everyone’s attention.
Milena adjusted the silk–striped shawl on her shoulder and turned to look at Lily with an elegant smile. However, her long and narrow eyes were filled with mockery.
She said, “Lily, you’ve really gone all out to welcome us. I hope we didn’t disturb your rest last night.”
At the mention of last night, Lily shuddered and could not hold it in anymore. Just as she was about to say something, Eleanor pulled her back.
Eleanor met Milena’s malicious gaze with a smile.
“Mrs. Taylor and Miss Taylor, since you are dressed so formally, it’s only fitting for our Davis family to do the same. After all, we take hospitality very seriously–otherwise, you might accuse us of being neglectful. Isn’t that right?”
The implication was to tell Milena who was the host and who was the guest. It was not her place to criticize the lady of the Davis family.
The elders present were all smart people. How could they not understand what Milena was implying?
No matter how much they disliked Lily, Lily was still one of the Davis family. Outsiders didn’t get to judge.
