Elaine took her to the lounge, "What did you come to see me about."
Ariel sat down in the sofa: "I came to see if you could live well away from Darnell or not, and now it seems that
there is no problem."
Elaine understood her hostility and had little expression on her face: "If he didn't ask you to come, then it's none of
your business what happens to me."
Ariel said, "How can you be sure that he didn't ask me to come?"
At that, Elaine paused slightly.
When she left Riverside City, Darnell said he would pick her up when things were done.
Did Ariel come to pick her up?
Soon after, Elaine shook her head and rejected the idea.
Ariel didn't like herself, she could feel it, and Darnell should be more than able to, so there was absolutely no way
that he would, let Ariel come and pick her up.
Elaine said, "I don't believe you."
Ariel laughed indifferently, "Don't you want to know what's going on in Riverside City?"
Elaine's hand on her knee slowly closed and clenched.
Ariel continued, "After your dad died, you Uncle Caesar united the James family against Darnell, forcing him to step
aside, but guess what, Dolores went back, you should know who Dolores is and who she is, right?"
Elaine pursed her lips slightly and did not speak.
"Dolores is the former patriarch of James family only daughter, if not expelled from Riverside City, her status, far

"So what, since Uncle Dolores isn't the James family anymore, what exactly are you trying to say."
Ariel said again, "Do you remember, two years ago, Darnell forcefully said that it is to follow the wishes of the
departed patriarch of the James family, to take Dolores back to the James family."
Elaine said, "But they didn't agree."
"No consent?" Ariel laughs, "Have you forgotten, those who did not agree with the clan has long since died, not to
mention, Dolores is Clarence's mother, do you think the James family now remaining those who dare to disagree."
Elaine frowned slightly.
"As you think, Dolores was once expelled from Riverside City, so she should not be considered the James family. But
you don't forget that you, Uncle Caesar, were also expelled from Riverside City, and you think, these two the James
family people who were also expelled from Riverside City, which one has a more important status? If Caesar can
lead the James family to force Darnell to abdicate through your father's death, why can't Dolores show up at the
James family and support Darnell?"
Elaine gradually understood her meaning, she Uncle Caesar nor Uncle Dolores are not on the James family tree, but
since the James family can acquiesce to her Uncle Caesar's return, it can not veto Uncle Dolores.
They could only be forced to agree.
Moreover, Dolores as Grandpa Bancroft's daughter, she is on Darnell's side, the other the James family people have
been completely and utterly, no rotary power.
Ariel said: "Elaine, Darnell deal with those the James family people is actually very simple, but what he wants, is
always the name, the James family side once the poor handling, hidden problems will always exist. So he began to
layout from two years ago, picking up Dolores back to the James family."
"But what does this have to do with me, and why are you telling me this?"
"Don't you understand that your father's death was a part of his plan?"
Elaine's face changed: "No way, I won't believe you, you don't ......"
Ariel interrupted her: "If your father does not die, Caesar how can have the opportunity to take the James family all
together to force him to abdicate. Elaine, I told you once that Darnell was going to do something more than just
love, do you understand now?"
Elaine tightened her fists and pursed the corners of her lips.
Ariel smiled: "I came just to remind you not to take your feelings too seriously, the only one who will be hurt is
yourself. Maybe you think what I'm saying now is alarmist, but when you think about what's going on, you'll
understand."
......
Ariel had already left by the time Stella heard the news that a friend of Elaine's had come to see her.
Only Elaine was left alone in the sofa, her head hanging slightly, wondering what she was thinking.
Stella walked over and gently tapped her on the shoulder, "Elaine, what's wrong?"
Elaine raised her head, her eyes red: "Sister, have I always been willful and uninformed?"
Stella said, "No, you're good."
Elaine shook her head, tears falling silently, and choked up, "If it weren't for me, Sherry's baby wouldn't be ......"
Stella reached out and wiped her tears: "How long has this been going on? Didn't we say long ago that it's over?"
"But ...... but no matter what it happened, nothing can be undone ......" she said, adding, "I never listened to my
father s words, he asked me to marry Darnell, I sneaked away to City N to escape the marriage, I know it should be
hard for him and Grandpa Tai to do at that time, but I still ran away regardless ......"
"Then my dad sent me to study in Switzerland and I snuck back in, and he wouldn't let me be with Darnell anymore,
and I preferred him ...... I seem to have always been against my dad and never let him save my mind... ..."

The more Elaine talked, the sadder she became, sobbing uncontrollably.
Stella hugged her and patted her back gently, "Elaine, your father doesn't care about that, he just wants you to live
in peace."
Elaine sobbed, "But I want him to live well too, and I can't do it anymore ......"
"Elaine, as long as you don't forget your dad, he will always live in your heart."
Elaine sniffed and cried even louder.
Release all the emotions that have been suppressed for days.
Stella listened with some eyes burning, she always felt that Franklin could not just die, but tried Clarence several
times, he either avoided answering, or just diverted attention, and did not get any useful information.
Now it is true that the forces behind Caesar have not been removed.
And although Riverside City's civil unrest is over, there's still a lot of things that need to be cleaned up thoroughly.
In the evening, Elaine knocked on the door of Stella and Clarence's room with her eyes swollen with tears.
Clarence sat in the sofa and looked at the person standing in front of him like a wooden stake: "What do you have
to say in the middle of the night?"
Elaine whispered, "I'm afraid I'll wake up tomorrow morning and regret it."
Clarence: "......"
Stella, fresh out of the shower and with her hair still blow-dried, walked over and kicked Clarence, then looked at
Elaine: "Elaine, you say."
Elaine said, "I want to go to Switzerland and go back to school to continue my studies."
Stella froze, "Now?"
