The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146 A Place of Her Own

Outside the door, a knock.

Eliza walked over and opened it to find a hotel staff member standing outside with a service cart.

“Miss, we’ve prepared… some warm soup for your stomach, and a few small dishes…”

As she spoke, the server tried to sneak a glance into the room.

She’d only been told to deliver the items–she wasn’t sure if this was a bad time.

Timidly, the staff member asked, “Sir, should I bring it inside?”

“Bring it in,” Nolan said from the sofa.

The server let out a small breath of relief and pushed the cart into the room.

Eliza’s stomach just so happened to be grumbling.

The staff laid out a few light side dishes and a pot of hot soup on the table.

“Nolan, eat with me.”

“Not hungry.”

Nolan stayed seated on the couch and poured himself half a glass of XO.

The server instinctively brought over an ice bucket and placed it next to him.

When Eliza turned her head, she saw Nolan lounging on the sofa, drink in hand.

And for a moment, that image of him matched the Nolan she remembered from her previous life.

Was Nolan already that kind of man back in high school?

She fell silent.

Nolan said casually, “I told them to bring you a menu. If there’s anything you want, just have the chef make it.”

“You come to this hotel often?”

“Not really.”

“Then why do you seem so familiar with everything?”

“I’m not familiar with them. They’re familiar with me.”

Nolan got up and set down his now–empty glass. “Eat, then get some rest. I’ll take you home tomorrow.”

“No need. I don’t live in the suburbs anymore.”

At that, Nolan froze. “What about the warehouse?”

“I hired staff to look after it. I can’t be watching the warehouse twenty–four seven just because I’m the boss.”

She had her own online store now. The flu hadn’t passed yet, and for at least the next six months, she had no plans of shutting it down.

After that, she’d move on to other ventures.

“Where do you live now?”

“I bought a new place. I’ll show you sometime.”

Eliza didn’t hide anything from him.

After all, if it weren’t for Nolan, she wouldn’t have had the money to start her business.

Nolan went quiet for a moment. “Have you thought about what you’ll do if you don’t get into Claire University?”

“I’ll go abroad.”

Eliza looked at him, eyes steady. “Don’t worry. I always leave myself a backup plan.”

She wasn’t the same Eliza who charged ahead without thinking. She had to be more careful now.

“You still need to go through a lot of paperwork to study overseas. You might not have time.”

“I know. The homeroom teacher told me already. But… I still want to take the gamble.”

She had to. She needed to fight for a better future for herself.

The next morning.

Nolan drove Eliza to a residential complex.

She’d bought five units in one go and picked the one with the best lighting for herself.

Nolan followed her inside.

Everything was already set up and organized.

“Well? Doesn’t it feel like a real home?” she asked.

The place was spotless, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting.

“… Yeah. It really does feel like a home.”

Hearing that, Eliza nodded in satisfaction.

Chapter 146 A Place of Her Own

If even Nolan said it felt like home, she must have done a great job decorating.

“I always dreamed of having a place of my own,” she said. “But it never happened–until now.”
