Rules of Engagement Chapter 164 Apologize!

Ron had a quarrel with Chloe for some unknown reason. The cleaner came to clean up the bowls and
chopsticks. When she walked up to Elsa, the maid recognized her. "Miss, how are you doing recently?"

Elsa recognized that she was the aunt who worked in the hospital. She signed Elsa's novel with her ID
card. Elsa nodded, "Hello."

The maid cleaned up the table quickly. After that, she came to clean up the living room and filled the
garbage. Ron didn't want to argue with Chloe, so he changed the topic to talk to Soren and Elsa. "It's
the first time that Mrs. Elsa has come, right? How do you know this woman?"

"The thing happened last time..." Elsa told him what had happened. "I wrote that novel for leisure. I
don't know who played such a trick. It also troubled us and this woman. Fortunately, things were clear
later."

Hearing this, Chloe felt a little uncomfortable. She threw the fruit peel on the ground and said in a low
voice, "You can leave after sweeping it. You have talked so much."

Ron suddenly thought of something and asked, "Mrs. Elsa, what's the name of your editor?"

But somehow, Chloe was annoyed. "Ron, where is the document I asked you to help me download?
Where have you downloaded it?"

"Chloe, can you respect us? We are chatting. Can you cut in other words later?" All of a sudden, Ron
also became very angry.

Soren and Elsa didn't know what was wrong with them. They stood up and wanted to leave, but Chloe
didn't keep being angry this time. She said in a gentle voice, "Let's go to downloaded it now, okay?"

Ron ignored her and asked, "Mrs. Elsa, who is your editor?"



Not knowing why the two of them quarreled again. Elsa took a look at Soren, and Soren gave her a hint
that it was okay. Then she said, "His name is Mark."

Ron's face darkened all of a sudden. "You mean that your novel was stolen after you submitted it to
Mark? The information of the person who stole the contract shows that it's this woman? And this
woman knows nothing at all?"

"Yes. But it's all in the past. There's no loss or impact. I just casually have a chat with this woman
today." Said Elsa, trying to calm down this obviously strange situation.

All of a sudden, Ron turned around. His posture was so big that he almost stumbled Chloe. Chloe's
face turned pale. Ron clenched his fists and said, "Chloe, apologize to Mrs. Elsa!"

"I didn't do anything. Why should I apologize to her?" Although Chloe was tough, she felt a little guilty in
her mind.

"How dare you say that you did nothing?" Ron was so angry that he almost lost control of his emotions.

Chloe stared at him and said, "I just did nothing! Why should I apologize to her? Who is she? No matter
what happened, the first person you suspect is me. You have never trusted me, never!"

Both Soren and Elsa had guessed what had happened, but they didn't know why Chloe knew Mark and
had the chance to get the novel draft of Elsa from him. They had to persuade him, "Forget it. Let
bygones be bygones. Besides, the matter has been solved. You two please talk nicely."

"Let's talk it over. I just let her spoil everything. I let her get more and more insatiable. She can do
whatever she wants for her own selfish desires. She never consider other people's thoughts and
feelings, and build her own happiness on other people's pain. She did the same to me and my friends."
Ron said, but he calmed down. "Maybe, it's really my fault. In this relationship, I always tolerate her,



instead of helping you grow up. I just spoiled you more and more like an ignorant child. Chloe, I think
we are really not the right person for each other. Let's forget about our relationship."

Chloe didn't expect that Ron would break up with her in front of his friends. After the shock, tears ran
down uncontrollably. "Ron, how could you break up with me just for this matter? Yes, I admit that I
copied her novel from Mark's computer and published it. I just don't want to see her good. As you have
seen, Norah was so sad for Soren. Why should I see this woman be good? You are a friend of Soren,
but I am not! You always put the interests of your friends above mine. Have you ever considered my
feelings? But I didn't expect that you would break up with me for this. I'm not convinced, and I'll tell you,
I won't agree!"

"Whatever!" After saying that, Ron opened the door and strode out.

The cleaning lady was still confused. She didn't know that she had caused a big storm and didn't
understand what they were talking about. It never occurred to Elsa that things would turn out like this
tonight. It was not a scene she had imagined or wanted to see at all, because it was too bizarre. It was
also because she had never thought that the person who had stolen her novel would be Chloe.

Chloe lost her temper in the living room and threw things everywhere. She was not familiar with Elsa,
and was still very hostile to her. Elsa couldn't calm her down in this situation. Soren was used to
Chloe's reaction, so he had to say, "Elsa, let's go out first and leave her alone."

They walked out together. Ron sat in his car and kept smoking, looking very annoyed. Elsa felt guilty.
"I'm sorry, Ren. I didn't know that things would turn out like this because of me."

"It's okay. It's not your fault." Soren said softly, "I'll sit with Ron for a while. Wait for me in the car."

When Elsa got back to the car, she was a little upset because of this matter. It took her a long time to
calm down. She just sat there waiting for Soren.



Soren stayed with Ron for a long time before he came back. "Are you tired, Elsa?"

"No, I just sat there with my eyes closed for a while." Elsa smiled at him and asked, "Is Ron okay?"

"It's okay. They have to have a fight anyway. Ron hit your editor's car with Chloe last time. Because
Ron's car is very expensive, Chloe has been struggling for a long time and has met your editor several
times. When they met once, your editor left for a while because of something. Maybe it was at that time
when Chloe browsed his computer and copied the information inside." Soren explained briefly to Elsa.

Hearing that, Elsa also remembered that she had indeed seen Ron communicate with Mark before. But
what a coincidence.

The two looked at each other and saw a little helplessness in each other's eyes. Then, in a relaxed
tone, Elsa said, "Let's go back."

"Go home." Soren smiled and started the car.

Soren drove slowly. Coincidentally, Fred's car was driving back. The road was a little narrow, so Soren
backed off. Instead of going over, Fred got out of the car. His serious face showed no emotion, but the
affection in his eyes was obvious.

After thinking for a while, Soren also got out of the car and greeted, "Father."

"Dad." Elsa also followed him to get out of the car.

"I heard that the youngest daughter of the Xu family went to the United States for further study. Are you
coming to see her off tonight?" Fred asked directly. He rarely had intimate interaction with his son, and
sometimes even a few words with him were extravagant hopes.

Soren nodded, "Yes."



Fred also nodded and said, "Why don't you go upstairs and have a seat?"

Seeing that Soren and Fred nodded in the same way, Elsa felt sorry for them. It seemed that Soren
also sensed the change of atmosphere. He raised his wrist and looked at the time. "I'll go upstairs and
sit for a few minutes."

Fred said calmly with a father's majesty, "Go ahead. I'll pull over the car."

When Soren and Elsa arrived home, everyone was waiting for them. Afra and Winona were cooking
lemon teapot in the kitchen, and the faint fragrance spread throughout the room. When Elsa came to
serve tea, Winona said with a smile, "Ren's father called downstairs and said that you would come
back. We really didn't prepare anything for you. Elsa, go and have a seat."

"Let me help you, Grandma." With a cup of tea in her hand, Elsa walked out.

The whole family sat on the sofa and talked about the weather and work today. Elsa put the tea in front
of the elder, got another cup for Soren and herself, and then sat down.

Sitting next to her intimately, Ada peeled an apple and handed it to Elsa. Elsa quickly said, "Thank you,
auntie."

"Here is your home. Why did you say that?" Ada pretended to blame her.

Elsa nodded. Soren sat there for a while, watching TV news attentively without saying anything. It was
said that the flight from S Country to another was delayed by a sudden and heavy fog, so it could only
circle in the air and could not land. Soren frowned slightly and said to Elsa in a low voice, "It seems to
be the flight that my mother takes."

Elsa also got worried. "Let me have a look. When I had dinner with Mom, her phone ran out of power.
She used my phone to receive the flight number from her secretary."



She took out her cell phone and checked the message. Compared with the news that was being
broadcast, among the flights that could not land, there was the one that Susie took. Hearing this, Soren
couldn't sit still any longer. Fred's face also darkened.

Everyone was a little nervous and flustered. Winona was old and said in a panic, "Then what should we
do? What should we do?"

Fred said seriously, "What can we do now? We can only wait. It's useless to be anxious."
