Falling For My Mysterious Wife By Cassidy Alfaro Chapter 85
Chapter 85
The bell rang loudly, pulling Jalen back from his thoughts.
Seeing that it was a call from Nitzan, he answered it without hesitation. Nitzan said on the other side of the line, “My birthday’s 3 days away. What gift are you going to give me?”
“Grandpa, how can you ask what your gift is?” Jalen was speechless.
“Why can’t I ask? What if I don’t like your gift?” Nitzan held the phone in one hand and his beard in the other, smiling.
Jalen thought of the painting that he bought earlier in an auction and said, “I guarantee that
will like it.”

“You guarantee my ass. I only want one gift for this birthday,” Nitzan said.
“What is it?” Jalen was much more patient when facing his grandfather. He thought it was better if Nitzan had a request.
“Bring Ella to my birthday party,” Nitzan said.
Jalen frowned. After a while, he said, “If you want her at the party, it would be better that you call
her personally.”
“I want you to bring her there.” Nitzan knew that Elaina would not refuse him if he called her personally, but he wanted to create an opportunity for Jalen and Elaina. Of course, he had to let
Jalen think of a way himself.
But in Jalen’s view, Elaina might go if it was Nitzan who called her, and Elaina would absolutely turn it down if Jalen invited her.
Jalen did not answer, and Nitzan was furious. “You brat, I only have one thing to ask and you can’t do this for me? Are you trying to make me die of anger?”
“Grandfather…”
“No matter how much you hate her, you must personally invite her to my birthday party,” Nitzan
interrupted Jalen. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Jalen smiled bitterly. It was not his turn to hate Elaina. It was her hating him.
However, he could not explain it clearly to his grandfather. He could only nod and agree, “I’ll try.”
“Save that crap! Don’t go to the party yourself if you can’t take her there.” After that, Nitzan hung up the phone, not giving Jalen a chance to speak again.
Jalen looked at his phone, feeling helpless. Those who did not know might think that Nitzan was Elaina’s grandfather, not Jalen’s.
In the Halton’s old house, Nitzan was still angry after he hung up the phone.
“What do you think is wrong with Jalen? Ella is such a good girl, but he actually doesn’t like her?” Nitzan complained to Takvor.
“Young people care about ‘feelings’. Maybe Mr. Jalen just doesn’t have feelings for Ms. Gainsford,”
Takvor said.
Nitzan snorted. “No feelings? He didn’t even see Ella. How could he feel it?”
Takvor did not speak. Nitzan continued, “I think they are a perfect match. As long as they get to
know each other, they will fall in love very soon.”
“Mr. Halton, actually, I can’t figure out why you want Mr. Halton and Ms. Gainsford to be together?” Takvor couldn’t help but ask.
He could understand that the marriage was arranged because of the commitments between the two
family’s elders, but Jalen and Elaina had divorced. Takvor found it strange that Nitzan kept matchmaking the two of them.
“Ella is a good girl. She can help Jalen and the entire Halton family,” Nitzan said after being silent
for a while.
“Ms. Gainsford helps Mr. Jalen?” Takvor was surprised and did not quite understand.
“I don’t want to force Jalen either, but the Halton family is not as powerful as he thinks. Maybe the
storm will come soon.
“Do you think that I insist that he and Ella be together because I’m old and stubborn?”
Nitzan sneered and continued, “That’s because Ella had a powerful family behind her. If she is with Jalen, she will definitely help Jalen in the future. Only in this way can the Halton family prosper forever in New York.”
When Nitzan said that, his mind was full of calculations. Behind him, Takvor thought that he had seen that ambitious Nitzan who was starting from scratch in New York.
