“What are you laughing at?”
Eli’s face darkened as he narrowed his eyes at Eliana.
Holding back her laughter, Eliana pushed Eli towards the mirror.
“Look at yourself,” she said, with her lips twitching uncontrollably at the corners.
When Eli first looked at himself in the mirror, his temper flared up.
After all, he looked nothing like the young and handsome idol that he was. Rather, he looked like a
comical cartoon character.
But the longer he stared at himself, the more he found humor in the situation. In the end, he burst out
laughing at his own reflection.
Now that Eliana had vented her anger by playing a prank on Eli, she smiled and stood on tiptoe to
smooth his wig down.
“What do you think? Aren’t I a good stylist?” Eliana asked, tilting her head.
Eli lowered his eyes to look at her, and his breathing subconsciously quickened.
He knew that Eliana was just fooling around in a good-natured way, so he wanted to retort in kind. But
when he thought of the design drawing of the ring, a single word bubbled out of his mouth before he
could stop it.
“Sorry.”
As soon as he finished speaking, both he and Eliana were stunned.
Whether consciously or not, it turned out that Eli knew that he was in the wrong.
“If there’s anybody you should be apologizing to, it’s Maurice. Go and talk to him. This matter has to be
solved,” Eliana said gently, trying to persuade him again.
“No way,” Eli scoffed and turned his head away arrogantly.
He looked nothing like the man who had said sorry just seconds ago. Eliana was so annoyed that she
had to take a few deep breaths to calm herself down.
“Eli, stop talking. Let’s go.”
After everything had been arranged by Inger, Eliana walked to the back door with Eli, who looked
thoroughly unrecognizable.
But by then, the door was blocked by countless reporters.
“Hurry up! Stop them!”
Eli’s staff were lined up along the way to create a barricade against the swarming reporters, leaving a
safe passage for Eli to escape.
Eliana had to stifle a groan when she looked at the crowd. She had already done what she could do for
Eli; now, she just wanted to go home and rest, but it seemed that she had to fight her way through this
crowd first.
It was a long time before she finally managed to squeeze through the crowd of reporters and rush out
of the Moran Group’s building.
A pair of footsteps that sounded closely behind hers made Eliana turn back with squinted eyes.
‘Damn it! Why is Eli here?’ she wondered, wanting to cry.
Some of the sharp-eyed reporters noticed the furtive Eli and followed him suspiciously.
“Damn it! Why did you follow me? Do you want to make trouble for me?” Eliana hissed, pulling Eli to a
corner.
“I was in a hurry. I didn’t see you.”
Of course, Eli was lying right through his teeth.
Earlier, when he was separated from Inger by the crowd, his mind went blank, and he subconsciously
followed Eliana, the next person he knew and trusted.
By this time, the interaction between the two of them had attracted the attention of the reporters, who
hastened their pace and walked towards where they were hiding.
At this critical moment, Eli suddenly stepped forward and pressed Eliana against the wall by the
roadside, leaning his whole body against hers.
“Look at me.”
Eli’s voice came out in an unfamiliar low growl, causing Eliana to look at him in curiosity.
Eli lowered his head, reaching out one hand to hold Eliana’s cheek and the other to hold her waist, as if
he was about to kiss her on the lips.
Realizing what Eli was about to do, Eliana jumped in fright and tried to turn her head away, but with Eli
holding her, she couldn’t move at all.
Just as their lips were about to touch, Eliana closed her eyes and pursed her lips tightly with a look of
utter distaste on her face.
“Do you hate the idea of kissing me that much?” Eli whispered, stopping less than an inch away from
her lips.
“Eli, are you insane—”
“Shh, don’t say anything,” Eli interrupted her and winked, indicating that there were people nearby.
Sure enough, when Eliana slid her eyes covertly to the side, she spotted several reporters standing not
far away.
All of a sudden, she felt her heart leap to her throat.
If she was caught in such an intimate position with Eli, his deranged female fans would skin her alive
for sure!
“That man looks just like Eli, doesn’t he? Is it him?” one of the reporters asked another.
“That’s impossible. How would Eli kiss a woman on the street? That’s a scandal he would never
recover from,” came the incredulous reply.
“Yeah, you’re right. Eli must have gone the other way. Come on, let’s catch him!” the first reporter said.
The group of reporters seemed to be in consensus, because they all hurried away to the other side, not
knowing that their real target was right under their noses.
“They’re gone. Let go of me!”
As soon as the reporters were out of sight, Eliana pushed Eli away with all her strength.
“I’m sorry for using you,” Eli apologized insincerely, staggering to catch his balance.
With a frown of displeasure, Eliana shook her head and looked down at her watch.
It was almost time for the kindergarten classes to be dismissed. Eliana had originally intended to go
pick up the kids after getting off work early today, but now, she was going to be late because of Eli.
“Well, now that the show’s over, you can leave. I have something important to do.”
Rolling her eyes, Eliana turned around and stormed off.
‘Something important to do? Is she going to meet Maurice?’ Eli wondered nervously. He couldn’t help
but secretly follow her to find out where she was going.
Not long after, he saw Eliana stop at the gate of a kindergarten, which seemed to have just been
dismissed. Kids were milling out of the school.
Eli, who was hanging back not far away, saw an adorable boy and girl rush into Eliana’s arms with
excited cries. “Mommy, you are here!”
As soon as Eli heard that, his jaw dropped in shock.
‘Mommy? Eliana has children?!’
