Chapter 434 I Could Buy You a Villa

Finished

“Mdm. Powell might have thought that, since you’re pregnant, she wanted to personally take care of you.” Ellis, considering the situation from a mother’s perspective, didn’t see anything wrong with Fiona’s actions. She only noticed that Maya seemed somewhat unhappy.

While helping Maya clean up, she asked, “What does your mom think about you marrying Cameron and having a child?”

Maya sighed deeply. I’m confused.”

“No matter how confused you are, your bump is starting to show now!” Ellis almost reached out to touch Maya’s still–flat belly but quickly restrained herself, realizing it wouldn’t be appropriate. “You need to make a decision soon.”

“I think about it later,” Maya replied, not feeling rushed.

“Alright.” Ellis said, noting that Maya wasn’t in a hurry. She decided to drop the topic.

After all, if Maya wasn’t in a hurry, there was no reason for Ellis being anxious.

Once Maya left, Ellis felt a sense of emptiness. The house seemed unusually quiet.

Soon, however, the silence was shattered by drilling noises coming from upstairs.

Is Easton on the upper or lower floor?

Frustrated, Ellis scrolled through her contacts and dialed Easton’s number.

“Hey, which floor do you live on?” she asked, her tone sharp.

It hadn’t been long since Ellis last contacted him, so Easton was a bit surprised by the call. He chuckled lightly. Tm downstairs”

It wasn’t Easton making the noise upstairs, but a neighbor she didn’t know, and they couldn’t just be dismissed.

Besides, the noise from the renovations during the day was within acceptable limits.

Before Easton could say anything more, Ellis hung up.

Listening to the beeping sound, Easton furrowed his brow in confusion. V

She just asks where I live–that’s it?

Before returning the phone to its place, Ellis briefly considered blocking Easton’s number again

But, feeling irritated, she abandoned the ide

Her life was tied to Easton inescapably, and she still occasionally needed to reach out to him.

Blocking his number seemed like too much trouble, so she decided against it.

A sense of resignation washed over her, as if she had accepted her fate, knowing she couldn’t rid herself of Easton.

Suppressing her irritation with the noise, Ellis tried to ignore it and lie down to take a nap.

However, the noise grew louder, continuing until evening.

She couldn’t stand it any longer and contacted the building management. “Could you please speak with my upstairs neighbor and ask them to keep the noise down at night? It’s too loud.”

The manager apologized. “Ms. Harper, I’m sorry for the inconvenience. Your upstairs neighbor is doing renovations. Ill make sure to pass along your message and remind them to respect quiet hours to avoid this happening again.”

Ellis was on the brink of losing her mind, but didn’t know how to vent her frustration.

Now, as she entered the elevator and encountered Easton, he took a moment to appraise her and said, “You didn’t rest well. did you? You look a bit tired.”

Ellis wasn’t sleep–deprived, but her sleep had been cut short, which left her annoyed.

Easton had hit a nerve. She turned her head away, refusing to look at him.

“You can stay silent when you see me! Is it really that difficult to act mute?”

After being woken up and then asking the management to speak with her upstairs neighbor–who was unreasonable enough. to argue that starting renovations at 7 a.m. wasn’t wrong–Ellis was already frustrated. She’d never liked Easton, and now her irritation was mounting.

“I can’t stay silent,” Easton replied, hands in his pockets, his outward indifference at odds with the concern in his voice. “It’s your neighbor upstairs making noise. Aren’t you upset?”

Living in the same building, it was impossible not to notice the renovation work going on.

“Obviously!” Ellis rubbed her eyes. “Don’t talk to me.”

“Or, I could buy you a villa?” Easton tilted his head, studying her. “No one would disturb you upstairs or downstairs.”

“Don’t take every opportunity to flaunt your wealth! Ellis shot him an angry look. “What’s so impressive about being rich: Money can’t solve all problems, so don’t think you can buy me off!”

“Why did I ever think you were just a gold–digger?” Easton’s voice softened, almost as if talking to himself, but with a trace of self–reflection and a hint of longing. “If only you loved money..

The kind of person one fell in love with was beyond one’s control, but having something that drew the other person in- something that made them look with a little more respect–must have felt pretty good.

Ellis didn’t want to indulge Easton in such a pointless conversation.

How many people in life can truly be indifferent to fame and wealth, not caring about money!
