His Coy Lover

The Roscente Group.

Alan Hasis stood at the corner of the company’s entrance, watching various luxury cars coming and going. He marveled at how different it was in a big company; every visitor drove a luxury car.

He held a photo in his hand.

The person in the photo was Elle, standing next to a new car.

Through Zelda’s information, Alan knew that the car in the photo belonged to Elle.

He didn’t know his own sister’s phone number.

Elle hadn’t returned to the Hasis family; she refused to acknowledge her biological parents.

Alan had strong opinions about his younger sister.

Even if there was no nurturing bond, there was a bond of blood. The two children being switched was not their parents’ fault; they were also victims.

But Elle didn’t want any contact with the Hasis family.

Alan tightly gripped the photo, constantly scanning the surroundings, hoping to catch a glimpse of Elle’s car.

Unaware that her biological brother had come, Elle, after leaving Burton, went directly back to the company. From a distance, she saw some people standing at the company’s entrance, a sight she was accustomed to.

Although the Roscente Group was not as powerful as Winston’s empire or the Rovella family’s group, it still held a significant position in River Town. Therefore, many people came to the Roscente Group for job interviews.

Suddenly, a person rushed out and blocked Elle’s car, catching her off guard. Elle hit the brakes urgently, narrowly avoiding hitting the person.

Scared, her face turned pale, and it took her a while to regain her composure. She promptly pushed open the car door and got out.

When she saw that the person blocking her car was Alan, her expression became even more unpleasant. Coldly, she said, “If you want to die, don’t die under my car wheels.”

“Sorry, I was afraid I’d be too slow, and you would have driven in.”

Alan quickly apologized.

He also knew that what he did just now was very dangerous.

“Why are you here? Are you here for a job interview? This is the Roscente headquarters, only hiring workplace elites. There’s no suitable job for you here. You should try elsewhere.”

Elle knew that her biological parents’ house was far from comparable to the Roscente. Her biological older brother, Alan, only had a high school education, which was not advantageous in the current era flooded with college graduates. It would be challenging for him to work at the Roscente Group’s headquarters.

“Don’t think you can get a job in the company just because of our relationship. Forget about it.”

Elle had a stern expression.

Alan’s face looked a bit unsightly. If it weren’t for his mother secretly coming to see Elle and ending up in a car accident, losing money and a cellphone, and being hit by a car, staying in the hospital, he wouldn’t have wanted to come to her.

Elle despised her family for being poor compared to the wealthy Roscente. Alan was well aware of it.

Even the true heiress of the Roscente, Zelda, didn’t mind the Hasis family’s financial status. She went home a few times every month and called them every now and then.

But Elle…

“My mom wants to see you.”

Alan said lightly, “When she came to see you secretly, she had a car accident. She’s in the hospital now, still mentioning your name. Take some time to visit her at River Town Hospital.”

“I’m busy.”

Elle turned back to her car, took her designer bag from the car, and pulled out a stack of money. She handed the money to Alan, saying, “This is for her. Buy some nutritional supplements for her. Tell her I’m doing well now. My parents still treat me the same as before, and Zelda also respects me as her sister. You don’t need to worry about me.”

“If it’s for my good, just live a peaceful life in your small town. If you’re facing financial difficulties, let me know. I can help anytime. But don’t be greedy. Don’t treat me as your ATM.”

He didn’t accept the stack of money; he even used his hand to push away Elle’s hand. Angrily, he said, “Elle, I know you despise us, but she is your biological mother. She got into an accident just to see you. Now she’s lying in the hospital. You won’t even go and see her. How could you?”

Suddenly, he snatched the stack of money and then threw it back at Elle.

“Think having money makes you superior? We don’t lack money!”

When Zelda returned to her biological parents, she would always send them money and various good things. Even if they didn’t want it, Zelda would insist on giving.

Mr. and Mrs. Peck were grateful to the Hasis family for raising Zelda, and when they took Zelda back, they generously rewarded the Hasis family.

The Hasis family indeed didn’t lack money now.

After Alan threw the money back at Elle, he walked away with a dark face.

Elle looked displeased. It wasn’t because Alan threw money at her; it was because others saw it, and she felt embarrassed.

After a moment of silence, she turned back to her car, drove into the company, and instructed the security guard on her way in, “If you see that man from now, drive him away. Don’t let him near the company.”

“Yes.”This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

The security guard respectfully acknowledged.

Elle drove into the company.

Alan, who left angrily, hailed a taxi by the roadside. After getting in, his anger couldn’t dissipate.

Thinking of his mother lying in a hospital bed and not being able to see her own daughter, Alan felt heartache.

Unable to resist, he took out his phone and called Zelda.

In terms of affection, Alan preferred Zelda as his sister. For over twenty years, they had treated Zelda as their own sister. Who would have thought that the sister they had cared for for over twenty years had no blood relation to them?

The sister with blood relation looked down on them.

“Brother.”

Zelda was happy to receive her big brother’s call and greeted him with a smile over the phone.

Alan’s full-blown anger disappeared quickly when he heard his sister’s familiar voice.

“Zelda, I’m Alan.”

“Zelda, don’t speak for now. Listen to your brother. Our mom, oh no, it’s my mom; she got into a car accident and was sent to the hospital. There’s no life-threatening danger, but she’s injured and had surgery. She’s currently in the hospital in River Town.”

At these words, Zelda became nervous and anxious and asked, “Is mom seriously injured? How did the car accident happen? Was the driver caught? In River Town Hospital? I’m coming over now.”

Alan originally wanted to tell her not to come, but the words were swallowed back.

“Let’s talk when we meet.”
