“I hope you won’t be such a coward the next time we meet.”
He sneered and left.
She slumped down from the couch and collapsed onto the ground with a pale face.
Yelena ran out desperately and squatted by the roadside, crying uncontrollably.
Hank’s words had been incredibly hurtful.
After being together for so long and even getting engaged, she had never imagined that he would suddenly speak to her as if he were a completely different person.She was at a loss.
At that moment, her phone rang; there was an incoming message.
Yelena wiped away her tears and retrieved her phone, noticing a message from Elspeth.
After she read the message, her heart instantly turned cold.
The message revealed that Elspeth had investigated Hank’s background and discovered that he had a relationship with someone five years ago.
The message even included a photo of his former love.
Although Yelena had never met the girl in the photo, she noticed the striking resemblance between her appearance and the person captured in the image.
We look so incredibly alike.No wonder he had fatten in love with me so suddenly.
Everything was planned from the beginning.She had believed that he genuinely liked her, despite her doubts.
However, reality had now dealt her a harsh blow.
Not receiving a response from her, Elspeth promptly called her.
“What’s wrong? Why aren’t you replying to the message?”
Yelena had intended to hide the sound of her tears, but it was too evident that Elspeth immediately picked up on it.
Hearing her crying, Elspeth instantly guessed the reason.
“You met him again, didn’t you?”
Yelena sniffled and replied, “Yes, I returned today and went to find him.He kicked me out.”
Elspeth’s voice carried a tone of frustration.
“I already told you not to go see him.”
“I know, but I’m just worried about his safety.”
Elspeth laughed bitterly.
“And what’s the result? Does he care about your concern for him?”
“He doesn’t care.”
“Where are you now? I’ll come pick you up.”
Yelena rose from the roadside, feeling slight dizziness after being ina squatting position for a while.
“It’s okay.Where are you? I’ll take a cab to come and find you.”
Elspeth helplessly replied, “Nowhere in Damoria is safe, and cabs have been canceled.Quickly send me your location and stay put.I’ll come over right away.”
“Got it.”
Half an hour later, a Lamborghini stopped beside Yelena.
“Get in.”
Rolling down the window, Elspeth noticed her helpless appearance and handed her a tissue.
“Wipe away your tears and get in.I’ll take you somewhere.”
Confused, Yelena eventually nodded and settled into the passenger seat.
While they were on the road, she could not contain her curiosity and ultimately asked, “Where are you taking me?”
“I’m taking you to see my latest research achievement.”
Elspeth winked at her.
“We’re just one step away from conducting clinical trials and producing the drug officially for this epidemic.I believe it might pique your interest.”
Yelena’s eyes lit up.
“Does that mean we can save Hank?”
Elspeth smirked.
“Yes, we can, but your love-stricken brain is beyond saving.”
At these words, Yelena lowered her head in embarrassment and said, “Even though I was really upset and disappointed, I still hope he’s doing well.”
Elspeth knew Yelena’s kind-hearted nature, so she didn’t pay too much attention to her words and directly took her to the laboratory.
When she entered the laboratory, everything inside made her feel incredibly curious.
Yelena looked around and momentarily forgot about the unhappy incident.
Meanwhile, Sonny was observing a set of data when he saw Yelena approaching.
With a pleasantly surprised expression, he asked, “So, you brought this little girl with you today.”
“Hello, Old Mr.Schwartz!”
Yelena smiled as she playfully tugged at his beard.
Sonny pretended to be annoyed.
“This girl not only calls me old, but she also pulls my beard.”
“Hehe.What are you up to, Old Mr.Schwartz?”
He raised the notebook in his hand and replied helplessly, “You should ask your sister Elspeth about that.I’m already of old age, and yet she makes me busy with these things.It’s really exhausting.”
“It’s all for the benefit of the people.”
Elspeth blinked mischievously.
“Alright, I won’t bother you two anymore.I need to continue observing this set of data.”
When Sonny turned to leave, he suddenly remembered something and turned back to Yelena with a serious expression.
“Oh, I forgot to tell you.There are many things in this laboratory that you shouldn’t touch.Remember to be careful.”
She didn’t pay much attention, as there was no way she would recklessly handle anything here.
Besides, even if she were to touch something, she would do so gently and with care.
Yelena immediately nodded and assured him.
“Don’t worry, Old Mr.Schwartz.I will definitely be careful.”
