"You're in the hotel?" Elena entered the elevator and pressed the number for her floor. Thinking of the warning from the Ten Elders, she felt a splitting headache.
But for now, Moody was still useful to her, and she couldn't give up the fish she had raised for so long.
Moody didn't know what he said.
She reported the floor and room number, and whispered to the person on the other end, "I'll be right back. We'll talk when we get to the room."
Elena hung up the phone and walked out of the elevator, walked towards her room, swiped her card to open the door, and did it all in one go.
She hadn't been in for long.
"Ding Dong~" the doorbell rang at the door.
She went back and opened the door, and saw the man she hadn't seen for a long time appear in the corridor with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"Come in first." Elena took the bouquet naturally and said to the people standing outside.
Moody walked into the entrance hall and entered the hotel room. He looked up and down the place where she lived with his sharp eyes.
He turned around and said in a deep voice: "Why don't you stay in the presidential suite?"
Elena held a bunch of sunflowers in her arms, unpacked the flowers and inserted them into the vase on the coffee table. Without turning her head, she said, "I came here with my classmates. It's not good to be too high-profile."
Her current identity is just Haitong’s good friend in school.
If she checked into the presidential suite of the Waldorf Astoria as soon as she arrived in Beijing, it would be too conspicuous and not conducive to what she was going to do next.
Moody frowned at first, then raised his eyes and looked at her deeply. He couldn't hide his heartache for her: "You...you are the future heir of the Irene family. It's okay even if you buy this hotel. Why do you have to wrong yourself for him?"
The person he was referring to was the grandson of the Ten Elders who had not yet returned to his ancestral home.
Elena took a step away and carefully admired the sunflowers she had planted. Hearing this, she turned her head to look at him.
However, she remained calm, with her hands hanging by her sides, and did not deny the fact that the Irene family was planning to marry the Theron family.
"It is precisely because I am the future heir of the Irene family that I cannot do everything according to my own temperament. They let me study abroad, not to let me learn to rebel..."
She shrugged and looked at him carelessly: "Besides, you know my situation. I'm different from you. I don't have the capital to be willful."
Moody fell silent.
He knew what Elena meant by 'not having the capital to be willful'.
He is the only son of the Mu family. The Seron family has been passed down for thousands of years and has been favored. However, in the past hundred years, it has been difficult for them to have children as if they were cursed.
As the eldest son of the family, his father only has him as his son.
The second branch was the one who inherited the name of Theron in the previous generation. The Ten Elders originally had a son, but he died early without leaving any offspring.
Then there was a daughter... This one was born, but the child did not inherit the brown eyes that the Theron family was proud of. She was treated as an alien and was never brought to the island.
It can be seen how difficult it is for the Therons to give birth...
As the only descendant of the eldest branch of the family, there is no competition for him at all. From the moment he is born, everything in the Mu family will belong to him.
But Elena is different.
The Irene family and the Theron family are two completely opposite situations.
They can't have children.
The Irene family is too fertile.
The head of the Irene family had four brothers in the previous generation, and the previous generation had many more.
So Elena has countless cousins, at least twenty brothers and sisters waiting for the opportunity to compete...if she hadn't been extremely outstanding since she was a child. (End of this chapter)
