The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 355

Chapter 355 Power Games

But when Nolan opened the door, it wasn’t Eliza he saw it was Elaine.

Her eyes glinted with something almost like defiance, and she even let out a cold little laugh.

So it really was true. The moment something involved Eliza, Nolan would come running.

“You need something?” Nolan’s tone was flat and unwelcoming.

Tyson’s driver, sticking to Julio’s script, said, “Mr. Hayes, this evening Ms. Sue went to Ms. Elaine’s house and destroyed everything. Ms. Elaine now has nowhere to stay, so our sir instructed me to bring her here.”

“This is my home,” Nolan replied icily. “I never agreed to let anyone else move in.”

“But… this incident was caused by Ms. Sue. Our sir said, if Ms. Elaine isn’t properly taken care of, he’ll be forced to pay Ms. Sue a visit himself.”

The veiled threat couldn’t have been more obvious.

And Nolan wasn’t stupid–he understood it instantly.

If he didn’t let Elaine in, Tyson would stir up trouble for Eliza.

“Fine,” Nolan said coldly. “She can stay. I’ll leave.”

To him, the Hayes family estate was just a house. He didn’t care where he lived.

But Elaine immediately cut in. “Wherever you go, I’ll go. If you won’t live with me, I’ll move in with Eliza instead.”

She thought she’d found his weakness.

But Nolan didn’t even flinch. “Go ahead. I’m sure you two will get along great.”

Elaine froze.

The memory of Eliza’s icy eyes as Matteo smashed her home came rushing back. That look would haunt her forever.

There was no way she had the courage to live under the same roof as Eliza.

Nolan stepped aside and opened the door wider, letting her in.

Once she entered, he made his conditions clear. “There’s only one guest room upstairs. You stay there. Don’t touch anything else. You can stay one night. Tomorrow I’ll have someone arrange a new place for you. Understood?”

“Nolan… do you really have to be this cold to me?” Her eyes welled up with tears. “Do you have any i what Eliza did to me today? We grew up together. Don’t you feel even a little sorry for me?”

She couldn’t believe Nolan would treat her like this after everything they shared growing up.

But he simply said, “There was never anything between us to begin with. So what’s there to be sorry about?”

With that, he turned and walked out.

Elaine stood frozen in the entryway, watching him leave, stunned that he would rather stay anywhere else than be near her.

Just how disgusted with me is he? she wondered, her face contorting with frustration.

Refusing to accept defeat, she snapped a photo of the guest room and posted it on her WhatsApp status.

Back when she started university, Elaine had added every classmate’s WhatsApp, including Eliza’s–even though Eliza never really posted anything and hadn’t cared whether they were connected or not.

Now, clearly, Elaine was trying to provoke her.
