Chapter 1811
“Ellen, if you want to continue working here, you’d better do as we say. Or else, we’ll cause a huge commotion and
make you lose your job!” Ajax Andino also took his stand.
“You can’t do that. This is a workplace. You can’t cause a scene here,” Ellen anxiously told them.
“Sir, this is not the place for that, so please leave,” the receptionist warned them sternly.
“What does this have to do with you? If you interfere with our matters again, I’ll mess with you too!” Garrett roared.
By then, Selena had arrived and was watching the scene with her arms crossed. She came forward and greeted,
“Uncle Garrett, you came.”
“Lena, come. Be the judge of this situation. Ellen agreed to share the money but then changed her mind. How could
she do that?” Nicole grabbed Selena and pulled her over to their side.
The receptionist noticed that things were worsening, so she immediately called security. “Is this security? Some are

Just as she spoke those words, Garrett dashed over and snatched the phone away from her. His actions were so
savage that they startled Ellen, and she came out from behind the reception table and pleaded, “Uncle Garrett,
please stop causing a scene here! I beg you. Please leave!”
“If you don’t give us our share of the money, you’ll never know peace here!” Garrett threatened.
Instantly, Ellen broke down as tears pooled in her eyes. She felt so weak and helpless at that moment.
Meanwhile, Selena watched happily without uttering anything, wanting to see how Ellen would end this commotion.
Suddenly, Nicole grabbed Ellen and ordered, “Ellen, come with us!”
“I’m not going anywhere.” Ellen struggled to break free. Following that, she felt a large palm delivering a slap on
her snowy-white cheeks, leaving a vivid palm print.
She went deaf for a few seconds, and everyone else on the scene was rendered shocked. Yet, the culprit remained
unfazed. “If you disobey us again, I’ll punish you!” ordered Garrett.
Just as he was about to drag her away, an angry voice suddenly hollered in the lobby. “Let her go.” That voice
sounded cold and sharp, which stunned the Andino siblings and made them turn around.
As Ellen was in front of them, she looked up and saw Jared approaching her. Instantly, she was surprised and
embarrassed-surprised because he came to her rescue and embarrassed because of her situation.
Selena was also one of the first to turn around. Her eyes instantly bulged, and her lips parted slightly as her mind
was blank yet excited at the man’s appearance. Oh my gosh! It’s him! It’s Young Master Jared!
While she was frantically tidying up her hair and clothes and revealing what she thought was a beautiful and
elegant smile, Jared arrived beside Ellen. Then, he glared at Garrett, who was gripping her wrist, and shoved his
hand away before drawing her to his side, threatening, “Who gave you permission to cause a scene here?”
Back at the reception, the receptionists were also shocked. Oh my! Who is the man that came to Ellen’s rescue?
Isn’t that the president?
At that, Selena’s emotion turned from surprise to shock. How is this possible? How did Ellen and President

Meanwhile, the Andino siblings were eyeing the young man who had suddenly appeared. Garrett snorted. “Ellen,
even if your boyfriend comes to your rescue, you’d still have to leave with us today.”
Ellen’s originally blushing face had now turned even redder. She had just muttered the word ‘he’ when she saw
Jared turning to look at her and declare, “Yes, I am her boyfriend.”
He used his eyes to hint at her not to explain their relationship because he needed an identity to interfere with this
matter anyway. Hence, acting as her boyfriend seemed like a good idea.
Ellen blinked blankly for a few seconds. Then, her heart started racing, and her cheeks became even warmer.
On the other hand, Selena felt like she was about to faint, and her nails were digging into her palms. She could not
believe that Ellen was now Jared’s girlfriend. Moreover, Ellen did not deserve nor have the right to be his girlfriend!
Yet, the man held Ellen’s cold wrist and announced, “With me here, you will never get to mistreat my girlfriend.”
Garrett was used to acting unreasonably. For the sake of money, he was not afraid of the young man before him,
even though he knew he was not a pushover at first glance
“I don’t f*cking care who you are, but Ellen has to leave with us.” He was even cursing at Jared
“Uncle Garrett “This time, it was Selena who panicked because, as their relative, she would never allow therm to be
rude to Jared.
