My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

Ellie hesitated, wanting to remove the earbud. "Eavesdropping on Darien's private conversation is only going to make him mad…"

But before she could pull it out, Keira pressed it firmly into her ear.

As Ellie tried to resist, she suddenly heard Darien and Mollie talking.

Mollie scoffed, "What's she doing here again? She really has no shame!"

Darien replied, "What else? She's here to see me… Ugh, once people like her start being a doormat, they just keep being one. It's like they're addicted to it."

Mollie laughed. "You've got quite the charm, Darien. But if I were you, I'd fire the maid's daughter for acting like that. Why haven't you kicked her to the curb?"

Darien responded, "Her mom's worked for my family for ages…"

Mollie pressed on, "But come on, you can't keep letting her slide! Letting her drive your car is one thing, but using your card? That's just too much."

Listening through her own earbud, Keira exchanged a glance with Ellie. Ellie held a tight expression, trying to justify, "Darien is just a little vain, but he's a good guy. He told Mollie he's made something of himself and wants to return to his roots…"

Keira rolled her eyes, urging Ellie to keep listening.

Ellie fell silent.

Then she heard Mollie ask, "Do you remember what tomorrow is?"
