Chapter 186 Chapter 186 Ignoring Nancy's attempts to stop him, Alex grabbed Ellie's hand and said, "Tell me, where did you hide those paintings?" Their eyes met, and Ellic, unusually quiet, replied, "I don't understand what you're talking about.

"Let her go" Aaron grasped Alex's wrist.

"Alex" Carlos sternly scolded, prompting Alex to release his grip Just you wait." Alex had no intention of letting Ellie off lightly. He left the side room and returned with a painting in his hands.

Ellie's breath nearly stopped when she saw the painting.

She wondered, I've torn it up. How could it be in his hands?" Alex said, "Ellie, don't tellthis isn't me." Alex tossed the painting onto the coffee table, meeting Ellie's eyes.

He said, "I've known about these paintings of yours for a long time. I just didn't bother calling you out." He about it.

inued, "You're dreaming about approachingby being adopted by the Warren family. I'm telling you, don't think As Aaron looked at the weed in the bottom right corner of the painting, his heart ached for Ellie, but ultimately he remained silent.

Carlos stared at the painting on the coffee table with his face serious.

Todd sat quietly on the sofa.

Nancy, with tears in her eyes, looked at Ellie, unable to say a word.

The side room fell into a long, heavy silence.

No one knew how long it had been before Ellie moved her numb body, carefully squatting by Carlos's knee. She took a pen from under the coffee table and continued the painting she hadn't finished right in front of everyone.

Tears fell onto the paper as Ellie choked up. "I admit this painting is mine.

"Ellie." Nancy felt both heartache and difficulty. "If you have this feeling, why didn't you tell us earlier?" "I didn't want to trouble you." Ellie murmured as her pen scratched across the paper. "The years living with the Warren family are wonderful, but there's no Mom, Dad, or Aaron." "When I miss them, I would draw." Ellie focused intently on the picture in her hands.

Soon, the painting was finished, and Ellie showed it in front of everyone. "I drew this when I was missing Aaron. "No way." Alex lost control and snatched the painting from Ellic 08:56 Fri, Feb 7 Chapter 186 186% Staring at Aaron's portrait on the painting, Alex suddenly shouted, "Ellie, you're lying. Would you dare swear on the health of your father's other leg?" Alex yelled. "If you're lying, your father will end up with no legs as punishment.” Just a moment before Aaron could react, Todd smacked Alex hard across the face. “You jerk!”

"Alex, enough!" Layton watched as Alex was being reckless and pulled Alex aside "If you're going to act like this, at least leave yourself an escape route.” Veins bulged on Alex's forehead as he glared at Ellie, and his eyes were red with rage.

Looking into Alex's eyes, Ellie trembled her lips and said. "My life was given toby my parents. I have no right to swear by my father's only leg for you." She continued, "But I can swear on my happiness in the future. If I'm lying, " "Enough." Alex suddenly dashed in front of Ellie, pulled down her hand raised to swear, and growled, 'Shut the hell up."

Thmore Alex told Ellie to shut up, the more she spoke. "I have to make this oath, or everyone will think I'm delusional and that I have sshady intentions with you." Ellie pointed a finger to the sky and said, "If I'm lying, I-I will be struck by the lightning." Alex, losing his cool, held Ellie's chin, not letting her finish her oath.

Layton watched Alex, who was clearly losing control, and pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration. Layton thought, "Well, he couldn't handle it at all. He chickened out at the crucial moment." 08:56 Fri, Feb 7 G
