Reborn Heiress: Taking Back What Is Rightfully Hers!
Chapter 118: Avoiding Him

Chapter 118: Avoiding Him

Because of her infatuation with Eric, Hannah’s knowledge about him came mostly from online sources.

That man was known for his ruthless and decisive tactics in the business world. Eric had used various means, even going so far as to expose his father James’ scandals, to secure the CEO position of the Nelson Group’s Elite Horizon Club!

Later, he cleverly bought out other shareholders’ stakes, truly becoming the master of the Elite Horizon Club.

Such a man was almost legendary. Although he still held fewer shares in the Nelson Group compared to James, Hannah believed it wouldn’t be long before he surpassed James!

Now, with Eric favoring Ella, offending him further could indeed lead to severe consequences.

Tonight’s incident... was indeed influenced by his manipulation, prompting her to urgently seek out Mr. Taylor!

"Have you figured it out? Good. Now, focus and don’t make any moves until you have the strength to back them up!"

Brianna sighed coldly, her eyes reddening. "Do you think I don’t want that little bitch dead? I want her to live a life worse than death! But she has Eric supporting her, and she’s overly cautious against us. So for now, we must refrain from acting."

Seeing the changing expressions on Hannah’s face, Brianna finally felt a sense of relief.

Hannah let out a defiant laugh, like a ghost wailing in the night, "Fine! Mom, I’ll listen to you. I won’t target her again. We’ll wait until the time is right!"

She didn’t believe Eric would love Ella forever. Even if he did, there would come a day when he would grow tired of her!

Once Eric and Ella broke up, it would be the end for Ella!

The next afternoon arrived.

Ella called home to let Robert know she wouldn’t be home for dinner because she was going shopping with friends. Then, she headed towards the back gate.

Chloe had left before her. Ella deliberately waited until most of her classmates had left before she slowly made her way out.

However, as soon as she stepped out of the classroom, she saw Brandon leaning against the railing.

Brandon was staring at her intently, his eyes filled with deep affection, now surging like a turbulent sea!

Ella pretended not to see him, lowering her head and quickly heading towards the stairs.

Brandon followed closely behind her, his footsteps echoing heavily in Ella’s mind.

His persistence made her want to vomit.

But at this time, there were no other students around, so Brandon boldly grabbed Ella’s hand at a secluded corner of the staircase, out of view from the opposite building.

"Ella..."

Brandon murmured, but Ella quickly shook off his hand, her eyes cold. "Don’t touch me with your filthy hands! If you keep pestering me, I’ll make sure you lose your teaching job!"

Brandon stood there, stunned, his face flushing with embarrassment. He couldn’t suppress his urge to just hold her hand.

"Ella, I mean no harm!"

"You mean no harm, but you disgust me!" Ella replied darkly, quickly running downstairs.

There were students carrying water upstairs, so Brandon didn’t dare to follow. He had no choice but to head downstairs dejectedly.

Ella was right. With her being involved with Eric, if he continued to harass her, he might indeed lose his job.

Brandon pondered for a few minutes before finally sighing and deciding not to push his luck further.

Ella arrived at the back gate, noticing the area was crowded with students.

Some were drinking bubble tea, others were eating snacks. The streets on both sides of the back gate were bustling with students.

Ella felt a bit frustrated as she immediately spotted Eric’s flashy Lamborghini parked under a tree not far away.

Many female students were staring at the luxury car, fantasizing about the driver, who they imagined to be an incredibly handsome man.

Ella lowered her head and walked briskly towards the main road, pretending not to see Eric’s car.

Eric, sitting inside the car, frowned slightly but then smiled. Ella must be avoiding his car to prevent her classmates from seeing her getting into a luxury car.

"Little troublemaker, just wait and see how I deal with you later," Eric chuckled, starting the car and following her.

Ella walked with long strides, leaving the school’s back gate and heading towards the main road in a few minutes.

There were fewer students here as most of them were gathered at the school gates.

However, she quickened her pace, sticking to the inner lane, making it hard for Eric to approach her.

Ella’s direction was opposite to the bus stop, leading to a quieter area with fewer people. Finally, she stopped, drenched in sweat under the scorching summer sun.

The flashy Lamborghini pulled up in front of her, blocking her way.

The car door opened, and Eric jumped out. "Princess, get in the car."

His tone was quite displeased, and Ella’s heart pounded. He seemed angry.

She didn’t mean to offend him; she just didn’t want too many classmates to see her getting into his car and start spreading rumors.

Ella smiled and quickly got into the car. As she bent down, Eric’s eyes caught a glimpse of her cleavage.

The sight of her heaving chest and enticing cleavage made Eric feel a sudden change in his body.

Damn it!

Just one glance and he couldn’t control himself.

If this girl grows up more and becomes even more attractive, will he need to lock her up in the villa to keep her from attracting other men?

Inside the car, Eric rolled up the windows, leaving only a small gap.

Ella pursed her lips and looked at him cautiously, her doe-like eyes showing a hint of guilt. Her moist eyes and slightly pouting lips made it hard for Eric to stay angry.

"Mr. Nelson, I’m sorry. I was embarrassed to get into your car just now... You know how people can be. If I got into your car, they’d probably start rumors about me being someone’s mistress."

Ella extended her jade-like hand, shaking his hand gently.

Eric glanced at her, pretending to be upset. He coldly pulled his hand away from hers.

"Honey, please don’t be mad, okay? How about we go for a fancy dinner tonight? Your choice, my treat," Ella said with a smile. Eric’s eyes fell on her fair collarbone, his Adam’s apple bobbing.

But he remained unmoved.

Ella felt a bit panicked. After all, when this guy got angry, he was really hard to appease. She quickly moved closer to him, wrapped her arms around his neck, and gave him a kiss.

"Alright, don’t be mad. I gave you a kiss as compensation!"

Eric’s breath quickened suddenly. He grabbed Ella’s chin and gave her a fierce kiss on the lips, then roughly squeezed a part of her body.

"Little thing, later I’m going to devour you until there’s nothing left! Let’s see if you dare to avoid me again!"
