She Has Three Little Treasures: Fake Heiress, Yet Captures The Tycoon's Heart-Chapter 966: Return to Veridia

Elias Hawthorne didn’t speak, he just looked at Raina North with a smile.

Under his gaze, Raina gradually couldn’t maintain her previous fierceness, but still stubbornly said, "Did I say something wrong?"

"No." Elias initially wanted to embrace Raina, but thinking of the insect venom inside her, he stopped himself: "You said a lot."

"That’s right, I never make mistakes." Raina said with a proud tilt of her chin, then she actively leaned into Elias’s embrace, wrapping her arms around his strong waist.

Feeling the man’s body suddenly become rigid, she whispered, "It doesn’t hurt, I’m not in pain. If I can’t hold you, that’s when it really hurts."

"Don’t be willful."

Elias chided softly, yet he couldn’t help but extend his arms to embrace Raina.

However, his embrace was gentle, not touching Raina’s body, yet it was the most intimate embrace.

No matter how much he longed to enfold Raina into his body, he had to forcibly suppress his desire, fearing he might hurt her.

Raina didn’t force Elias, she knew that if she hurt herself, Elias would feel more pain than she would.

Just as Elias couldn’t bear to hurt her, she too couldn’t bear to harm Elias.

Raina rested quietly against Elias’s chest for a while, having to leave before the insect venom stirred.

Raina took a deep breath: "Elias Hawthorne, let’s return to Veridia, let’s leave tonight."

Although the Sea Calm Stage officially starts tomorrow, that’s only a general understanding, the actual calm begins at three in the morning tonight.

Normally, everyone would wait until daylight the next day to set off.

But Raina couldn’t wait any longer.

Since that old bastard claimed Elias was only after profit, she intended to show him what being self-serving truly meant, who was really self-serving.

Elias was slightly taken aback: "There’s actually no need to be in such a rush."

"No, it’s urgent." Raina looked up at Elias: "Just thinking about that old bastard stepping on your back and spouting nonsense makes me want to destroy him, I can’t stand it for a minute, not even a second."

Elias wanted to say that he really didn’t care about such slander, considering the crazy things Vincent Hawthorne did for Susan Kensington before.

He had harbored resentment towards such a father.

But it’s rare for a child not to resent such a father. Yet, seeing Raina so eager to help him avenge, Elias felt that the deepest wounds in his heart were slowly healing.

If all the past suffering was to allow him to meet Raina later on, he would willingly endure it for eternity.

After Elias agreed to return to Veridia that night, Raina hastily went to make arrangements.

Although she had already started preparing, this sudden change of plans left Raina bustling incessantly.

Especially when Pip Finch heard the news, he stopped watching cartoons and came over to demand Raina take him back to Veridia.

What could Raina do?

She could only agree.

Lune didn’t want to be outdone, he immediately handed over a pile of tasks to the Third Elder, not caring at all about the future position of the Alliance Hierarch.

Third Elder: "..."

The Third Elder expressed a desire to indulge himself too.

But looking at Lune’s intimidating appearance, he didn’t dare to say it aloud.

The three little ones, after hearing the news, cheered excitedly.

Though the Umbral Zone was nice, they still missed Veridia.

Just when everyone was bustling about to leave, a subordinate came to report that the previously captured Miss Lowell was making a fuss, demanding to see her and Elias. Otherwise, she would dash against the wall and commit suicide.
