Ex-husband wants me back novel

Chapter 594 +25 Bonus Chapter 594 Eli quickly wiped her face before answering. "Come in." Gia entered, carrying a thermos of warm water. The moment she saw Eli's face, she knew the girl had been crying again. Still, Gia didn't look surprised. "How are you feeling?" she asked gently. Setting the thermos down on the table, she added in a soft voice, "It's alright to cry, Miss." Eli lowered her head quickly. "I wasn't-" Gia smiled faintly. "You don't have to feel embarrassed. I cry too when I'm sad." Eli didn't respond. She simply stared down at the bowl of soup in front of her.

"I brought you some warm tea," Gia said after a moment. "Would you like to try it?" Eli hesitated for a while before finally nodding.. Gia immediately poured the lemon tea from the thermos into a porcelain cup, serving it slowly so Elí could enjoy it comfortably. "Here you go," Gia said. "Thank you, Gia." Eli looked down at the cup of lemon tea. Its gentle aroma was inviting, and thin wisps of steam rose from the surface-Gia had clearly just made it. Gia remained standing beside the table for a moment before speaking again.

"I don't know what kind of problem you're going through, Miss," she said carefully. "But it seems... very heavy." Eli slowly turned the teacup in her hands, her thoughts still tangled. Gia continued calmly. "The people in this house are very kind. I've worked here for almost four years, and during all that time, they've always treated me well. As far as I know, they've never treated anyone badly." Eli stayed silent. "That's why," Gia went on, "I've never had the slightest intention of doing anything wrong in this house.

I wouldn't dare." The words were simple, but their meaning was unmistakably clear to Eli. Gia smiled gently. "Mrs. Althea is very worried about you, Miss. She asked us to keep an eye on you. If you develop a fever or wake up in a panic, we're supposed to tell her immediately." Eli lowered her head again. Her chest filled with an unfamiliar warmth. She looked down at the cup in her hands and took a slow sip. 1/3 The sweetness blended with the light tang of lemon, soothing her in a way she hadn't expected. Perhaps it was the soup Althea had prepared.

Or the note whose every word she had memorized. Or Gia's quiet reassurance. But something inside her began to shift. Slowly, a decision started to take shape in her mind. She had nowhere else to go. The one person she had trusted had lied to her for years. And for the first time since morning, Eli realized something with absolute clarity. She wanted to stay here. Not because she was forced to. But because she liked the people in this house. Eli drew a deep breath. "Gia," she said softly. "Yes, Miss?" "I... want to stay here." Gia smiled faintly, as if the answer didn't surprise her at all.

"I'm sure Mrs. Althea and the Miller family won't have any problem with that," she said gently. Eli looked at the teacup and the nearly empty bowl of soup in front of her before speaking again, this time more firmly. "If I have to work to repay their kindness, I don't mind." She lifted her head. "I'll say it tonight during dinner." "Work?" Gia looked confused. "You're still in school, Miss." Eli suddenly realized something and blinked. "Ah-no. That's fine." She quickly finished the rest of her tea in a few gulps. "I want to take a shower. Has the head maid prepared dinner yet?" "I believe so.

It should be ready in about thirty minutes," Gia replied, still looking a little puzzled. "I'll help you get ready for dinner." "That won't be necessary," Eli said politely. "I can manage on my own." "Are you sure?" Eli nodded with quiet confidence. "You can leave me alone, Gia." Gia gave a respectful nod. "Alright then." "Oh, but..." Eli hesitated. "Will Mrs. Althea and Mr. Daven be there for dinner tonight?" "I don't think so. They'll be returning late. There are some urgent matters they need to take care of." Eli's shoulders sank slightly.

But since her decision was already made, she would tell Althea about it 2/3 Chapter 594 +25 Bonus tomorrow morning instead. Tonight, she would speak with Riana and Nathan first. "In that case, I'll inform them that you'll be joining dinner," Gia said before finally leaving the room. "God... I hope I'm not making the wrong decision," Eli murmured after the door closed, leaving her alone once more. She quickly stood and headed to freshen up before going to the dining room. Drawing in a long breath, she slowly let it out.

"I should consider myself lucky they didn't send me away," she whispered to herself. "Gia's right... they've treated me incredibly well." 日 Comments Support Share 3/3 admin
