The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 440

Chapter 440 Trial by Family

Just thinking about it filled Tracy with rage.

“I’ll come back later?

“To see your precious Eliza?” Tracy snapped. “Zayden, you’re so full of crap. You keep saying you don’t like her, but from where I’m standing, you’re completely obsessed.”

With that, she hung up the phone..

Zayden’s reaction just now made her hesitate about taking him back overseas.

But she didn’t feel safe leaving him at Capital University alone, either. What if some other wornan snatched him away?

Meanwhile.

Eliza had already brought Nolan to the Sue family estate.

This was Nolan’s first time at the Sue family’s main residence.-

The Sue family was the richest family overseas, owning sprawling estates. Even Eliza had felt out of place the first time she came though now, she’d gotten used to it.

“Tristan will be down soon. I’ll introduce you then.”

Nolan opened his mouth like he wanted to say something, but when he looked at Eliza, the words got stuck.

A moment later, Christian was the first to come downstairs.

He was wearing a flashy, colorful outfit – typical of the playboy that he was. Even dressed like that, he still carried himself with a roguish charm.

He could even be called a trendsetter.

“My baby sister, I missed you so much!”

He swept Eliza up in a big hug.

But the moment he spotted Nolan, Christian’s expression cooled. “Oh, so this is the Mr. Hayes our fourth brother keeps mentioning on the phone? What’s he doing back here with Eliza?”

His tone was distant, with more than a little edge.

Eliza gave him a warning elbow. “Watch your mouth.”

Christian rubbed his arm dramatically. “Halbert was right – you’re totally blinded by love. Got a man now, and suddenly your big brother doesn’t matter?”

Eliza stepped next to Nolan and slipped her hand through his arm.

“He’s my fiancé now. We’re together. From now on, you should be calling him your brother–in–law.”

Nolan’s heart lifted when he heard her say that, but the tips of his ears turned red.

Eliza already knew Nolan was easily flustered. She’d said it on purpose just to tease him

“Oh? Fiancé? Funny I don’t remember hearing about this.”

From upstairs, Ronaldo came down neatly dressed, his secretary following behind.

Eliza looked at him and said, “I just decided. It’s not too late to tell you now.”

“You saying he’s your fiancé doesn’t make it true,” Ronaldo said. “Not unless he gets our approval.”

“Exactly,” Christian added, stepping to Ronaldo’s side. “He needs both of us to sign off.”

They looked like they were forming a united front.

Eliza frowned. “You two are just making things difficult on purpose.”

“It’s fine. I’m up for it.”

Nolan answered without hesitation.

Eliza looked at him, concerned. “Are you sure? Maybe just forget it. Who knows what kind of nonsense they’re planning.”

These two had never been known for playing fair.

Last time Christian was in Westbrook, he even mistook her for someone else.

“If I want your family’s approval, I’ve got to put in the effort. Otherwise, how can I claim to love you?”

Christian made a face. Even he had never said anything that corny when flirting with women.

“Are you fighting or not? If not, we’ll just kick you out.”

Christian had been hoping Nolan would give up. But instead, Nolan stepped forward.

“What are we doing?”

“Fight me,” Ronaldo said. “If you can’t even protect my sister, how can I hand her over to you?”

Before the words were even out, Ronaldo launched the first strike,
