The Inescapable Celibate Heir
Chapter 43 Invitation
Ella stated at the numbers on the elevator display as it climbed higher and higher.
She lived on the
second–to–top
top floor of the Lavender Fields
elds Manor apartments. The higher the floor, the pricier the rent.
She just hoped Victoria lived on a lower floor than her, so she could still feel superior.
But the elevator didn’t stop until it hit the to
top floor, the:
1st.
Lila blurted out, “No way, that hitch Victoria lives on the top floor! heard the top floor of Lavender Fields Manor is a symbol of Sunhaven status, never rented out, and even the owner’s identity is kept secret!”
Ella’s face fell.
Noticing this, Natalia quickly tugged on Lila’s sleeve, signaling her to zip it.
The three of them waited a bit, then got into the elevator and arrived at the 20th floor, where Ella rented her apartment.
There was only one unit per floor, with two elevators. Ella had deliberately waited earlier to see which flour Victoria
lived on.
Ak soon as they walked in, Natalia and Lil
Lila gushed, “Ella, your place is so spacious and luxurious!”
After a round of compliments, Ella’s mood finally lifted.
Ella treated them to good food and drinks, even letting them try on some of her new clothes, saying they could keep whatever fit them.
the top floor is like. It would he
Lila was super happy and relaxed, and she sighed, “If the 20th floor this luxurious, I wonder what the top great if we could get invited up there.”
Ella shot her a cold look
Lila quickly hid her envy and awkwardly smiled, “Ella, do you t
think your parents feel guilty towards her and secretly bought her an apartment?”
No way, Ella shook her head. With her efforts, Brian and Joan had realized that Victoria was a cunning and malicious woman who only caused trouble. They would never support Victoria,
Besides, they didn’t even buy her the top floor, so how could they buy it for Victoria?
Natalia also started guessing. “Could it be Etian?”
It must be him. He had stood up for Victoria before! Among the people they knew, only Ethan hail such decisive actions.
What did Victoria do to attract Ethan? This didn’t h
happen in her previous life!
He should get tired of her soon. With Ei
Ethan’s family background, there was no way he could have a future with an ordinary girl.
Ella could only think this way to comfort herself.
Natalia said, “Ella, don’t be upset. We despise such shameless tactics Spending your own money
is niore teassuring.”
Ula added, “Exactly, Ethan might be with her for a few days, but one he leaves, she’ll have nothing”

Chapter 43 Invitation
When Nick learned that Victoria had moved into Lavender Fields Manor, he also wanted to join the fun.
Victoria looked at the expansive floor–to–ceiling windows with a wide view. On both sides of the balcony were gardens maintained by professionals, with a long swing hanging there, like a place where fairies lived.
She took out Flora and gently placed it on the ground. Flora ran towards the sunny windowsill, skidding to a stop but still crashing and tumbling.
Victoria laughed out loud.
After instructing Lyanna that Nick and the others would be coming ver, Victoria sat on the swing
Her personal butler soon arrived, preparing drinks and snacks for her
When Nick
k and the others arrived, they saw Victoria swinging on the balcony, holding a leopard in her arms, with light and shadow playing on her face, looking as beautiful as a painting.
Nick looked around and nodded in approval, “This place is really nice. No wonder Ethan bought a unit here.”
Eric said, “Tell your dad to buy you one too.”
Nick pouted, “My dad doesn’t spoil me like that. He’d just kick me out.”
Victoria lightly touched the ground and stopped, “Make yourselves at home. Does Ethan live here too?”
Ray, lounging on the sofa, casually painted across, “Coincidentally, he lives right across from you.”
They casually picked up drinks and snacks from the coffee table.
Victoria looked at Ethan, meeting his intense gaze. She blinked and then looked away.
Nick, sipping his cola, excitedly said, “Actually, Ethan doesn’t come here often. That place is purely for fun, to play!”
rfurt, with all kinds of games
Ethan had even installed a fully automated smart home system complete with a robot butler. At home, he simply issued commands and never had to lift a finger.
Ethan lightly tapped the coffee table, “I might come here more often
Victoria looked at him in confusion, “Then where do you usually liver
Ethan replied, “My house.”
Nick explained, “Ethan’s family lives in that famous estate, The Smith Mansion.”
The Smith family was at the center of power in Aerion, naturally living in the center of Sunhaven.
The Smith family possessed not only power and wealth but also a sterling reputation.
Ethan was truly favored by the gods; fortune always smiled upon him.
Victoria pondered. In her previous life, while filming, she had visited similar estates, probably former officials residences, grand and elegant, which she quite likes.
Noticing her interest. Ethan offered, “Would you like to visit?”

Victoria raised an eyebrow, “Tdidn’t say that.
Nick eagerly replied, “Yes, let’s go! I haven’t been there many times either. Victoria, you should agree, and lets go together.”

won’t be able to
Eric, playing with a soda can lab, tossed it into the trash and joked, Let’s go when Mr. Smith isn’t home, and have fun “
Sensing their enthusiasm, Victoria also wanted to see it, so she agred.
But it would have to wait until after she officially joined the Snooker club.
When they left, the elevator stopped on the 20th floor.
As the doors opened, Ella saw the Charming Four inside. Surprised, the was also convinced of her suspicion that Victoria had relied on Ethan to move in.
However, Ella only dared to discuss it privately now, not daring to spread it around. What if Ethan went crazy and got her expelled
too?
Ella and her friends didn’t dare enter the elevator, claiming doors quickly closed.
On the way back to school, they witnessed a minor car accident.

The man on the bicycle, seeing that the girl’s parents weren’t around, not only didn’t apologize but also cursed at her and tried to ride

Sensing something was wrong, Victoria threw her large shoulder bag at him.
The bag, containing a heavy textbook, hit the man, causing him to lose balance and fall

He turned and saw Victoria, with four tall, wealthy–looking young men behind her.
His voice weakened, “Damn it, so what if you’re rich? Fine, I’ll let it today.”
He tried to leave with his bike.
Nick stepped forward and grabbed the bike’s handlebars, “You think you can just leave after hitting someone?”
