Eloise's POV:
I looked at Atticus calmly and completely ignored his emotions. After all, this was our family's ward. I believed he wouldn't dare to do anything.
Jude, behind him, would not allow him to do so.
"What makes you think I'll do what you think I would do?" He finally laughed out loud.
"I have my judgment on this. If you want to stand on equal footing with me and discuss it, I don't mind."
When he said that, Chloe's expression became even gloomier.
"That's good." I held onto his hand and tried my best to smile at him.
But in fact, my hands were shaking. I couldn't help but be afraid of him.
It was all because I said those hurtful words to him. It was hard for me to talk to him like this under the influence of the mate connection. But I still put in so much effort.
I was surprised by this.
