Chapter 1460: 1460. There's not enough food, tell them not to eat.
Sophia Taylor followed beside Elly Campbell, her gaze falling on Ethan White's stunningly handsface. Almost
instinctively, she raised her hand to tuck a stray lock of hair behind her ear, revealing her exquisite features.
Neither Elly Campbell nor Ethan White noticed Sophia’s unusual behavior.
Elly was preoccupied with thinking about how she would explain to her overly jealous boyfriend why Ethan had
cover to cadge a meal. As for Ethan...
From start to finish, his eyes never focused on anyone else—his heart and mind were completely absorbed by
Elly Campbell's face.
Whether she was happy, upset, or displaying any other emotion, in Ethan's eyes, it all seemed to have been
filtered through the lens of perfection, making her look unbelievably beautiful.
"Sis-in-law! Sis-in-law!"
While Elly was lost in her worries, another unwelcvoice suddenly sounded to her left.
She turned to see Leo Hall walking briskly toward her, one arm in a sling.
"Sis-in-law, | heard you cooked. How about sharing sof it with me?"
Elly’s expression was complicated and indecipherable.
Why were all these people so shamelessly entitled? And how was it that she owed both of them her life? She
couldn't even muster a refusal.
But if she were to deny Leo Hall and only let Ethan White join her for the meal, her boyfriend—the clingy little
ball of jealousy—would surely go wild imagining things.
Might as well bring Leo Hall along too. "Fine, let's go," she said.

Leo’s face lit up with joy. "Thanks, Sis-in-law."
The four of them headed together toward the Jones and Campbell settlement point, with Ethan White and Leo
Hall walking on either side of Elly. This, unfortunately, pushed Sophia Taylor—who had originally been at Elly’s
side—to the margins.
Sophia's expression turned a little odd as she watched the trio.
Meanwhile, Elly was feeling uneasy herself, flanked on either side by these two troublemakers with ulterior
motives.
Thinking of Sophia, Elly worried she might feel out of place, so she deliberately stepped away from Ethan and
Leo to walk beside Sophia. She was about to guide Sophia ahead when Sophia remarked:
"Ms. Campbell, | noticed there seem to be a lot of people over at your place. | think maybe | shouldn't go with
you after all?"
Sophia seemed a bit flustered, pursing her lips in hesitation. Her gaze flitted nervously between Ethan White and
Leo Hall.
But the two didn’t bother to look at her in response to her words—instead, their eyes remained fixed on Elly
Campbell.
"Why care about them? You're my invited guest; they're just shameless freeloaders. If the food's not enough,
then let them go hungry," Elly said.
Ethan White and Leo Hall: "..."
Sophia was amused by Elly’s statement and couldn't help but smile, sneaking a shy glance at the two men in
front of her before cautiously saying:
"S-sorry."
Of course, the food was definitely sufficient—Elly’s earlier comment was just a throwaway remark.

Ethan White and Leo Hall didn’t respond much to Sophia’s apology, nor did they show any signs of taking
offense.
The walk to the settlement point was still long, so Elly began initiating small talk with Sophia now and then to
ease her discomfort.
This behavior was rather unlike the typically cold-spirited Elly Campbell.
Nearby, Ethan White glanced meaningfully at Elly several times.

Leo Hall's attention remained fixed on Elly as well.
Unlike Ethan, Leo wasn't

thought that big sisiow-wose

Squinting, he imagined what Elly would look like as a delicate exhibit, and his eyes gleamed with excitement.
