The smile gradually faded from Hallie Morgan's lips as she mocked, "Elijah Moore, we've been together for two years, and you let your mom ask me for a breakup? You don't even show your face?"
Elijah Moore's face subtly changed. Looking at her, irritation was evident on his face, "So you came to find me? Huh, do you think a face-to-face breakup makes a difference? Hallie, it was my naivety that made me want to be with you. You never told me that you were the adopted daughter of the Morgan family."
Hallie stared in surprise at the man who she once knew as a boy, who now spoke in such a condescending tone, "So you're breaking up with me because of this?"
"You only wanted to be with me to climb up the Moore family tree. Why else would you hide this from me? I used to think you were naive."
Hallie's throat felt itchy, and her nose was tingling with sourness, but she forced herself not to shed tears.
