The public, always quick to judge and quicker to envy, turned against us, claiming Sandra’s success came only because of your influence.

This touches a nerve with Sandra; she works tirelessly to prove her capabilities.” She studied Elijah’s reaction closely, hinting subtly, “Ruby, however, wasn’t this bold before.

I wonder who’s emboldening her now.” As she spoke, Elijah’s expression turned noticeably darker.

With Ruby staunchly supporting Elizabeth, it was evident Elizabeth herself orchestrated the chaos.

Previously, Elijah had thought Elizabeth was merely a victim caught in the swirl of rumors, prompting him to intervene and shift public sentiment in her favor.

Never did he anticipate that Elizabeth would leverage the situation to enhance her reputation while tarnishing Sandra’s image.

Elizabeth’s audacity had erased every trace of her once-apparent grace! In that instant, any lingering sympathy Elijah had for Elizabeth evaporated completely.

He could overlook momentary indiscretions, but not the calculated malice brewing within Elizabeth.

Soon after, Elijah arranged for a consultation with a renowned cardiologist from Isonridge to devise an effective treatment plan for Sandra.

He stayed by Sandra’s side until she had eaten and then left the hospital.

Outside, Oliver was anxiously pacing near the vehicle.

Seeing Elijah approach, he promptly opened the rear door and inquired, “Mr.

James, are we still going to meet Mrs.

James?”

Elijah bent to enter the car, the heady scent of roses filling the cabin.

He glanced briefly at the vibrant bouquet and replied coldly, “Yes.” Oliver, sensing the chill in Elijah’s tone, felt an involuntary tremor.

There was no doubt—Elijah wasn’t seeking peace.

He was ready for confrontation.

These were just baseless rumors on some scandal sites—they’ll fade soon enough.

But…” She hesitated, unwilling to mention Elizabeth directly, so she referred to Elizabeth’s agent instead.
