The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 442

Chapter 442 An Uninvited Guest

Led by Christian, Nolan took Eliza’s hand and followed him into the sitting room.

Inside, everyone was gathered and seated.

Tristan had already arranged lunch–all Westbrook–style dishes, just the way Eliza liked them:

After all, she’d grown up in Westbrook and had never lived overseas. Tristan was worried she wouldn’t be used to foreign food.

So, he’d specially flown in a chef from Westbrook.

Eliza’s appetite kicked in immediately. “Thanks, Tristan. You really get me.”

“Ahem!”

Christian suddenly let out a loud cough.

Eliza looked at him in confusion. “What’s with you, Christian? Why are you coughing out of nowhere?”

“Sure, it was Tristan’s idea to hire a chef, but I’m the one who actually brought him in. And my baby sister doesn’t even say thank you?”

“Thank you, Christian.”

Only when Eliza said that did Christian nod in satisfaction.

Just then, Halbert stormed through the front doors of the estate.

The first thing he saw was Eliza and Nolan already seated and chatting happily with everyone.

His face instantly turned sour.

As Halbert walked into the sitting room, Christian stepped forward, ready to pull out a chair for him – but Halbert shot him a cold look and said, “Tristan, this girl came back without even telling me. What do you think we should do about that?”

The room fell silent.

Tristan calmly set down his fork and said, “Sit down first.”

Halbert clearly didn’t want to sit. His eyes stayed locked on Nolan, filled with hostility.

“That’s Eliza’s fiancé. We just made it official.”

Tristan’s short sentence left Halbert stunned.

Fiancé? Since when?

Halbert shot to his feet. “Tristan, how could you let her marry this guy?”

“The Rivers family only wanted to marry Eliza for profit, not love. You know that better than anyone.

“But Henry really does like her-”

Ronaldo cut in coolly, “Who can say for sure if he does or not? And even if he does, what matters is who our sister likes.”

“But-”

Halbert still wanted to defend Henry, but Christian quickly stood up to smooth things over. “Tristan already made the decision. You’re still young don’t talk nonsense. Sit down before Tristan really gets mad

Not wanting to upset Tristan, Halbert clenched his teeth and sat down.

Meanwhile, Nolan quietly picked fish bones from Eliza’s food, and she smiled now and then.

Halbert watched their warm exchange and rolled his eyes.

Wasn’t this the same girl who swore she’d cut ties with Nolan after learning he had a fiancée?

Now look at her.

The moment Nolan handled the situation, Eliza ran right back to him like a puppy.

Halbert was fuming. If Tristan weren’t here, he wouldn’t even bother being polite to Eliza.

“Fish, Halbert?”

Eliza held up a piece of fish in front of him and waved it playfully.

Halbert immediately knew she was up to no good and ignored her.

Sure enough, she popped the piece of fish into her mouth the next second – it had never been for him to begin with.

Halfway through lunch, the butler came in.

“Sir, Ms. Tracy is here.”

Tracy had been off vacationing in Westbrook for several days, and Tristan hadn’t bothered keeping track of

her.

After all, Tracy wasn’t truly part of the Sue family, and she was an adult. Tristan only intervened in her life when it came to major decisions.

“Let her in.”

“Yes, sir.”
