“That’s right, she caused this whole scene, and in the end, she couldn’t even pay. Did she just escape from a psychiatric hospital or something?”
Eliza remained polite as she stood in front of Elaine and said. “Miss, if you’re unable to pay. I’ll have no choice but to call the police.
“It was you, wasn’t it? You did something to my card!”
Elaine lunged and grabbed Eliza’s collar.
This time, the manager immediately stepped in and stopped her. “Madam, you’ve been making a scene here for over an hour. You’ve seriously impacted our store, and you even assaulted our employee. We’ve already decided to call the police, don’t push it any further.”
“Go ahead! What are they going to do? The police wouldn’t dare arrest me!”
Elaine’s eyes locked fiercely onto Eliza’s, as if she were trying to read some hidden truth in them.
But then, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted Nolan standing just outside the Missy storefront, phone in hand.
He wasn’t speaking, just standing there–but his presence alone was intimidating.
In the crowd, Nolan blended in easily with his black tactical jacket, not drawing too much attention.
Still, his eyes carried a cold, piercing intensity.
The moment she saw those eyes, Elaine realized–it was Nolan who had frozen her bank account.
Her fists clenched tightly; her eyes were filled with frustration and rage.
“Let go! Let go of me!”
Elaine suddenly thrashed wildly, shaking off the manager.
Brandon hadn’t expected her to have that much strength.
A second later, Elaine broke through the crowd and bolted.
Brandon shouted, “Hurry! Go catch her!”
He was panicking, she had damaged so much in the store–there was no way they could just let her go.
Eliza turned to watch Elaine flee in disgrace but said nothing.
The crowd, realizing the spectacle was over, began to disperse.
Eliza spoke calmly. “Let her go.”
“But Ms. Rivers, that crazy woman wrecked so many of our things! Letting her walk away like this is too casy!”

Anyone else would’ve snapped by now. There’s no way she’d let someone push her around on her own turf.
Eliza responded evenly, Someone will settle the score with her.”
At that moment, Elaine had already been dragged to a quiet corner outside the mall by two bodyguards dressed in black.
There was no one else around, and Elaine didn’t resist.
When she saw Nolan, her face crumpled with a look of hurt. “I’m sorry. Nolan. I didn’t mean to, I just couldn’t control myself.”
Elaine sobbed uncontrollably, trying to throw herself into Nolan’s arms, but he raised a hand to stop her.
Seeing that, Elaine’s body froze for a moment.
Nolan’s voice was cold. “I already gave you a chance.
“I just can’t accept it! I’m your fiancee, why are you sneaking around with another woman?!”
“I never once acknowledged our engagement.
Those words drained the color from Elaine’s face. “But your grandpa arranged it before he passed away! Nolan, we grew up together, how can you abandon me like this?”
Just then, Eliza walked out from the mall. Calmly, she watched the scene before her–it was like seeing a version of her past life play out
She had grown up with Zayden. They had an engagement. But Zayden had never liked her.
At that time, her mindset had been exactly like Elaine’s.
Eliza walked up to Nolan, looked him in the eye, and said evenly, “Didn’t you say you already handled it?”
Nolan looked at her but said nothing.
One of the bodyguards quickly spoke up. “Ms. Rivers, this has nothing to do with Mr. Hayes! Ms. Elaine, she’s the one who.”
“Shut up.
Nolan’s voice cut through sharply, silencing the guard.
He didn’t intend to defend himself.
If he hadn’t handled it, then he hadn’t.
Nolan had promised Eliza he would take care of this. But clearly, he hadn’t
That was on him.
Elaine saw Eliza and instantly reached out to grab her hand, desperate. “Eliza. I’ll give you everything I have, just give Nolan back to me, please? Name your price, and I’ll pay it! I’ll repay the damage to your store tenfold!”

Before Elaine could finish, Nolan had already yanked Eliza behind him.
“Don’t touch her.”

Hearing Nolan’s words, Elaine’s expression twisted further. “Nolan! I’m only marrying you–and you can only marry me! You can’t leave me like this! The Hayes family owes me! If you owe me, then you have to take responsibility for my life!”
Every word Elaine spoke was drenched in blame, blame directed at Nolan.
