Chapter 216
Elara said, “Most of the time, love comes with a filter. That’s why you think of someone who’s not such a good person as more important than yourself.”
“That’s right.” Felicity sighed. “You can think things through, unlike me… I didn’t realize it until now.”
Seeing that she was a little sad, Elara said, “Actually, Wyatt is not that bad. Although he doesn’t care enough about you, many people envy your life in the Hawthorne family. It’s better than many people who can’t get love and money.”
Speaking of this, Elara thought of herself…
She felt that, at that time, she was so blind.
When Felicity heard Elara’s words, she smiled at her. “You have a point. Did I ask for too much?”
“As long as you’re happy all these years, that’s alright,” said Elara.
Felicity said, “Elara, tell me… if I don’t divorce him, will you look down on me?”
“Why would I?” Elara said, “Whether to get a divorce is your freedom. The point is that you have to be happy and live for yourself.
“As long as you’re doing well, you’re the best version of yourself regardless of whether you’re Mrs. Hawthorne or someone else. It’s also good not to get a divorce.”
“Why?” Felicity was puzzled.
Elara said, “Think about it. If you get a divorce, people might still talk about you behind your back and think you might not have a good life in the Hawthorne family.
“But if you stay in the Hawthorne family, it will be different… Other than not getting his love spend everything he gives you and enjoy your life.
you can get anything. You
“And you don’t have to love him. It doesn’t matter if he loves you. When you go to work, you can’t possibly ask your boss if he loves you, right?”
As Elara spoke, Lysander and Wyatt came downstairs.
They were still at the door when they heard Elara talking to Felicity.
Wyatt stopped in his tracks and frowned. For some reason, these words made him feel uncomfortable.
Lysander glanced at his wife and coughed lightly.
Elara looked up and saw that Lysander and his father had already come down.
Seeing Wyatt, Elara was shocked and immediately stood up. “Watt.”
She couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Did Wyatt hear what I said just now?‘
Although Elara felt that there was nothing wrong with what she said, she knew as men, they wouldn’t think the same.
When Wyatt heard Elara’s words, he said, “Am I disturbing you two?”
“N–no.” Elara was extremely embarrassed. She looked at Lysander guiltily.
Wyatt walked over and looked at Felicity. Her mood improved a lot after chatting with Elara for a while, and she no longer

looked depressed. Seeing that, he said, “Looks like you need to talk to Elara to make you feel better.”
Felicity said, “Elara is the person who treats me the best in this family.”
“She does treat you well,” Wyatt said, “So well that you want to divorce me.”
It was not like that he liked this woman very much.
However, with his identity, it would not be good if he divorced Felicity.
Moreover, he was no longer young and did not want to find another one.
He already had a wife, and Felicity did well in all aspects.
He didn’t like trouble..
Although she said she wanted a divorce, he knew she was only saying it. Wyatt did not take these things to heart.
Felicity said, “Divorce is my own decision.”
Wyatt frowned and said, “You haven’t wanted to get a divorce for so many years…”
“That’s because I haven’t figured it out all these years.” Felicity stared at Wyatt’s cold face
like his father.
Wyatt was no longer young, but one could still see how handsome he was when he

She realized Lysander looked quite
young.
However, when Felicity saw him now and thought of his coldness, she suddenly felt he was not as handsome as before.
‘What is love? It’s just an obsession. I can’t grasp it or touch it… The only real thing is the other party is good to you,‘ Felicity thought.
And apparently, Wyatt was not good to her.
In the past, she had hoped that she would be able to obtain his love.
Now, she realized that it was too silly.
Wyatt stared at her. “So, you’ve figured it out now?”
“Yes, I’ve thought it through,” Felicity said, “I won’t be as stupid as before. I won’t think about making you like me anymore.”
“Alright,” Wyatt said, “It’s good that you can figure it out. However, I hope you can stay awake forever. Otherwise, you’ll think of all ways to trick me into coming back to see you.”
“When have I done that?” Felicity’s expression was cold as she told Wyatt, “Do you think I was hospitalized to trick you into coming to see me?”
‘I had already been discharged from the hospital, but he still has such thoughts?‘ Felicity thought in disbelief.
Instead of discussing it with her, Wyatt turned to the maid and said, “You can prepare for dinner now.”
“Okay, Mr. Hawthorne.”
“Is Aubrey home?” Wyatt asked.
“He said he’d be right back.”

Chapter 216
While they were talking, Elara followed Lysander to the room next door.
She said to Lysander, “Did your father hear what I just said?”
Lysander nodded.
Elara said, “Oh, no. He must hate me to death.”
When Lysander heard Elara’s words, he said, “Why would he hate you?”
“Because I said those words…”
“Just treat it as work. It doesn’t matter if he loves you or not.” Lysander repeated her words. “You’re quite good at talking. Do you know your mistake now?”
“I just tried to console Felicity because she looked upset. And what I said is the truth…
Seeing how assured and bold with justice she was, Lysander took a step forward to make himself closer to her. “So, is that what you think when you’re with me? You should get more when being with me than with Asher.”
Lysander thought Asher broke Elara’s heart, so she chose him.
When Elara heard his words, the corners of her mouth curled up in disagreement. “What are you thinking?”
“I’m thinking about you,” Lysander said, “I’m thinking about what’s going on in your head every day.”
“What’s on my mind is, of course, I love you very much.”
“Hypocrite.”
Elara laughed helplessly. “Why do you think that way? I didn’t say those words to target you. Don’t think that I’m talking about you.
“You’re so good to me, so of course I like you very much. You’re different from your dad. At least, when I’m sick, you’re more

Lysander did not argue with her.
Seeing that he had listened, Elara was much more relieved. She continued the topic from before. “Could it be that your dad already hates me?”
“It’s alright,” Lysander said, “You didn’t say anything wrong. He asked you to come over and help him coax her. She did feel better after talking to you, didn’t she?”
Soon, Aubrey returned.
Elara and Lysander also went to the dining room.
Elara had just sat down when Wyatt said, “Elara.”
