Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 368 Might Be a Mute...
Speaking, she looked at Ellie and praised, "My son’s taste is quite good, Young Master Davies is the man worthy of my son."
Ellie looked smug, "Of course."
Lisa looked at Ellie, suddenly asking, "Ellie, have you noticed how much Young Master Davies loves his wife?"
Ellie immediately looked displeased, "So what, all I have to do is kill that bitch!"
Lisa immediately stopped her, "Absolutely not."
"Why not?" Ellie was puzzled.
Lisa smiled, "It’s not that I won’t let you kill her, but you can’t kill her now."
After saying that, Lisa asked, "If you kill that woman now and let Young Master Davies know, do you think he would still fall in love with a woman who killed his wife and marry you?"
Ellie didn’t mind, calmly speaking, "Mother, with my status as the future Queen of Whitehill, he will fall in love with me!"
Lisa smiled, "Child, you are still too young. Do you think, with Young Master Davies’ status, he would fall in love with you just for the title of a future Queen Consort of Whitehill?"
...
That afternoon, Lisa spoke many truths to Ellie, and taught her many strategies.
She told Ellie that to win over such a man, she must proceed slowly, not too quickly, and must not anger the man.
Ellie seemed to understand vaguely.
But how much she truly understood and whether she would follow Lisa’s teachings was for Ellie to know herself...
That night, under Queen Lisa’s invitation, Adrian Davies attended the palace banquet along with Melody Parker.
At the banquet, Ellie indeed tried to win Melody over as Lisa had instructed, wanting to become best friends with her.
But she had only just approached, without doing anything yet, when Adrian coldly blocked her...
As Adrian entered with Melody, hand in hand, Ellie greeted them with a smile, "Young Master Davies, you’re here?"
Adrian coldly replied with a nod, and said nothing more.
Seeing this, Ellie’s smile didn’t falter.
She looked at Melody, "Lady Davies, I still don’t know how to address you."
Adrian coldly spoke up, "Miss Parker."
Ellie laughed and continued trying to get closer, "Hello Miss Parker, I’m Ellie. Why don’t I accompany you to your seat?"
As she spoke, she reached out to grab Melody’s hand.
But before she could reach Melody, Adrian coldly interrupted her, "No need, my wife is shy. I can take care of her myself."
After saying that, Adrian no longer looked at Ellie and led Melody past her, directly to the table to sit down. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Left behind, Ellie gritted her teeth angrily. Shy? Not only is she ugly, but she might even be mute!
However, she quickly turned around with a smile, wanting to approach Adrian again.
But before she could take a step, Locke and Ned Faris stood firmly in front of her, "Sorry, Princess Ellie, our boss cannot have contact with women. Please take a seat over there."
They looked towards a spot far from Adrian and Melody.
Seeing mere underlings stopping her, Ellie suddenly felt very angry.
Seeing the situation, Lisa timely spoke up, "Ellie, come over here and sit with Mother."
Due to Lisa’s interruption, Ellie managed to control her anger.
"Yes, Mother," she smiled slightly and walked towards Lisa.
...
During the banquet, Adrian didn’t speak much, and the few words he did say were directed at his wife.
Throughout the entire banquet, his warm gaze was fixed solely on his wife.
As if in his eyes, besides his wife, he couldn’t see anyone else.
He attentively and tenderly cared for his wife, as if the woman beside him were a child unable to take care of herself.
Watching Adrian like this, Ellie became even more obsessed.
She wanted every moment to take her place, to become the woman sitting next to Adrian, wanting him to treat her gently and protectively too.
...
That night, after everyone had gone to bed, Adrian quietly left the palace where he was staying.
Like a ghost, he roamed the palace, quickly finding Muir’s bedchamber.
Looking at the row of guards outside Muir’s palace, Adrian couldn’t help but sneer.
Ha, unwell?
For the queen to imprison the king like this, using such a ridiculous excuse.
But thinking these guards could stop him?
Adrian swiftly dodged and bypassed all the guards, effortlessly entering Muir’s palace.
However, inside Muir’s palace, he didn’t find Tannis.
Time was pressing, he didn’t linger for any moment, exited Muir’s palace and continued searching throughout the palace.
But having searched through the entire palace, he still couldn’t find Tannis...
Adrian had no choice but to temporarily return to his palace and plan anew.
But when he returned, he noticed a suspicious figure lingering outside his residence.
Adrian sneered, walked straight up, "Princess Ellie, what are you doing wandering outside my palace in the dead of night instead of sleeping?"
Upon hearing the man’s voice, Ellie was startled, turning around abruptly.
Heavens! When did this man appear?
She hadn’t heard his footsteps at all, when did he come?
But seeing him, none of that seemed to matter.
She had come here precisely to find this man, though hadn’t found a suitable excuse yet, was unsure how to enter, thus lingering.
Now the man had come out, wasn’t this better.
He was dressed all in black, exuding a compelling presence.
His deep black eyes seemed like whirlpools, gazing straight at her.
Seeing Adrian like this, Ellie’s heart couldn’t help but race, as if it were about to leap from her chest.
She stared at the man in fascination, stammering, "Young Master Davies, I, I came here to see if you were sleeping well."
Finally stammering out a complete sentence, Ellie seemed to find a suitable excuse, her words flowing more smoothly, "Young Master Davies, consider this place your home, there’s no need to feel like an outsider. If you lack anything, or need help with anything, just tell me."
"I’m fine, not lacking anything," Adrian coldly said, directly gazing at Ellie, then asked, "But is what Princess Ellie said just now true?"
Ellie nodded vigorously, her eyes sincerely fixed on Adrian, "Of course it’s true! Whatever Young Master Davies needs, I will spare no effort to fulfill."
