Most of the time, Victor felt Elinor was hypocritical though her eyes were pure.
Because she never spited out her true thoughts.
The noble person like Victor got used to expressing his attitude directly when he was unhappy, for he was not fearful and had a powerful backer. Hence, people including Victor, Samuel and even Kemp, will show their attitudes on their faces directly.
But Elinor's behavior made Victor dissatisfied.
In his view, now that Elinor feared and hated him for his actions, why did she still pretend to love him and forbear his harm?
If she did so, she would better insist for a lifetime.
But she actually showed her grievances while pretending to be innocent, which made Victor unhappy, for she acted as if he did something sorry to her— it was a moral kidnapping to him at all.
At this thought, his eyes were colder. After Elinor said, she also kept silent. Victor asked, "How long will you stay here this time?"
Why does he suddenly care about her?
Elinor was surprised, but she was still wary. "I should stay here all the time. Dad's company needs my help."
"It seems that you will take over the Sue Group?"
He sneered in his heart. In the future, they may have many chances to meet each other. And they may become rivals.
In the cruel business world, can a naive and innocent person like Elinor survive in it?
They arrived at the Borris family. When Elinor got off the car, her heart raced. Since she knew her real identity and was taken home by Quincy, she hasn't been here.
But the Borris family treated her as their daughter. She was grateful that Sonia could accept her regardless of her resentment with Maria.
She took a deep breath. Victor heard it and smiled quietly. "Nervous?"
Elinor clenched her fingers. "I haven't been here for too long."
"I thought you were afraid of our family." He deliberately said so, which hit Elinor's pain point.
Yes, she is afraid. She is very afraid!
