Chapter 100

Even though I knew Elene drugged me to embarrass me in front of everyone tomorrow, I couldn't bring myself to do the same to her.

"I can help you," Ethan said calmly. "The Herington family isn't poor, Jack might think it's a good match."

I looked at Ethan, but he was staring out the window. The night felt like it would never end

When the cruise ship finally docked, jack and his group rushed in. They headed straight for Ethan's room. From down the hall, I could hear Ivy pretending to calm Jack down "Jack, don't be mad. They're adults now, we should talk this through." Soon, they burst into the room.

"Mr. Grayson, Evelyn is a decent, respectable girl. In the future.." Jack's voice suddenly stopped.

I stood behind him, pretending to be clueless. "What's wrong?

Ethan stepped out, dressed in all black.

"Mr. Wiley, what are you trying to say?" Then, he glanced around at the others in the room. "And why did you bring all these people? Are you here to confront me?"

"Are you guys here to pick up Elene?" tasked with a smile, acting much calmer than before. "I'll take you to her."

Before they could respond, I tumed and headed to Elene's room Jack and Ivy didn't have time to stop me.

I pushed open the bedroom door and saw Elene wrapped around Joseph Hemington from the Hemington family. Their clothes, underwear, and shoes were scattered everywhere. Ty's face turned pale, and she quickly shut the door. "Don't look, don't look!" she said in a panic.

I smiled briefly before it disappeared. "vy, Dad, don't be angry with Elene."

"And," I looked around at everyone, "let's not spread any rumors and ruin Elene's reputation. She's not even 18 yet."

Suddenly, Ivy slapped me hard across the left side of my face. Her eyes were filled with anger as she shouted, "Evelyn, how could you do this to Elene? I won't let you get away with

H

Ivy moved so quickly that by the time Ethan reacted, I'd already been slapped. He pushed by away and stood in front of me.

"Mrs. Willey, do you really think you can hit my woman as you like?"

Istepped out from behind Ethan and slapped Ivy back. "What's the matter? Can't handle it? only did to your daughter what you were planning to do to me."

Ivy was furious, but she stayed quiet after hearing Ethan's warming.

Jack, trying to smooth things over, caught onto the way Ethan addressed me and quickly said, "Mr. Grayson, this is all just a misunderstanding. My daughter has caused you rough trouble, so I'll take her away tight now!

Jack had hy go wake up Elene, and they quickly left after she got dressed. After they were gone, it was just E so Antoine had taken her away the night before.

Ethan and me on the cruise ship. I didn't want Lyla to see all this mess,

The wind was strong at the dock, and I felt unsteady standing on the top deck. The sky was getting darker, and I felt uneasy.

Ethan came up behind me and asked, "Are you okay?

I wasn't sure how to answer. I didn't feel happy or relieved, just felt empty.

"I've completely ended things with Jack," I said, baning to tace Ethan "He probably won't bother you anymore. Thanks for your help. If you need anything free une in the future, I'm here for you" pihan looked at me and asked, "Are you trying to distance yourself from me again?
