Chapter 700
Chapter 700:
Without warning, Adah’s leg swept through the air like a dancer’s flourish, sending Clifton, Kieran, and Damian tumbling to the floor in a tangle of surprised limbs.
As Clifton and Kieran groaned on the floor, dramatically clutching their bruises, Heather placed a hand over her chest and silently thanked the heavens for being born a woman. Otherwise, she would probably be lying beside them—another victim flattened by Adah’s fury.
Damian slowly pushed himself up, one hand on his stomach, wincing with every movement. “Adah, seriously? It was Cole who hurt Eliana. Why are you taking it out on us p>
Kieran staggered to his feet next, rubbing his shoulder with a grimace. “Yeah! We didn’t do anything wrong. Shouldn’t you be chasing the real culprit instead of us p>
Clifton, brushing dust off his clothes and trying to keep his cool, spoke with the calm authority of the Four Guardians’ leader. “Adah, listen. Hurting us doesn’t help the situation. You’re going after the wrong target p>
But Adah crossed her arms and snorted, completely unmoved. “It’s your fault for being male, just like Cole! That alone is enough reason to hit you; I don’t need any other excuse p>
Clifton, Kieran, and Damian exchanged looks, their mouths twitching in disbelief. How was gender their fault? That was decided by fate, not them. Was Adah done with logic entirely?
Meanwhile, Heather, watching the three men squirm, pressed her lips together to hold back her laughter. Her shoulders trembled from trying not to laugh out loud.
Elliana, watching the scene unfold, couldn’t help but smile. “Adah, can’t you be serious for once p>
Adah turned toward her, eyes lighting up the moment she saw the small smile on Elliana’s face. “You smiled! Finally! That’s what I wanted p>
Upon hearing this, the others finally understood. Adah hadn’t been lashing out blindly—she’d been putting on a show, acting ridiculous on purpose to cheer Elliana up.
Clifton, Kieran, and Damian were no longer upset. The pain suddenly felt worth it. If a few bruises could bring a smile to Elliana’s face, they’d take the hit any day.
When the laughter died down, Elliana shook her head and let out a soft sigh. “You don’t need to worry about me. My heart’s a little heavy, sure, but I’m not falling apart. I’ll get through it p>

Adah’s shoulders relaxed. “I’m glad to hear that. Honestly, I was scared you’d get stuck in your heartbreak and do something reckless.” Then, her tone shifted as she leaned in slightly. “By the way, I discovered something strange recently and investigated further p>
Elliana’s gaze sharpened. “What did you find p>
Adah’s voice dropped to a quiet seriousness as she began, her gaze fixed on Elliana, “There’s suddenly no trace of you or Cole online. All the gossip accounts that used to talk about you two have been wiped clean, like they never existed p>
Elliana’s eyes narrowed as her expression turned pensive.
“For so long, the media’s been obsessed with ‘the trillionaire marrying an unattractive wife’ narrative. It was everywhere. And now? Silence. Not a single trace left. That’s not normal,” Adah continued. “I got suspicious, so I created a new account and tried posting about you two. But every post got blocked—every single one. It’s like the system refused to acknowledge you were ever connected to Cole. This isn’t a glitch. Someone’s pulling strings behind the scenes p>
