Chapter 240

The two women were both in the bathroom at the same time, with Eliana cleaning her dirty clothing andInger applying her make-up.

“I would want to speak with you, Miss Pierce. Would you be interested in a conversation?”

In the silence of the restroom, Inger said abruptly.

“Ms. Sumner, I’m all ears.” Eliana paused and used a tissue to clean her hands.

“Miss Pierce, please accept my apologies on Eli’s behalf.”

Inger’s face was filled with pity the following minute as she was lost in her recollection.

“Eli grew up in a welfare facility. He has no one to call family. He was just accompanied by a dog.Because of its age, the dog became ill. He worked several jobs to earn enough money to cover thecosts of the dog’s medical care. Consequently, a talent scout discovered him and brought him into theentertainment industry. Unfortunately, his companion dog did not survive.”

What Eli stated turned out to be true.

In the end, it was only then that Eliana realized she hadn’t been misled by Eli in the greenroom earlierthat morning.

Inger was quite chatty.

“Eli eventually came upon Lucky by chance later on. He was a lot more content and self-assured as aresult. He believed the ring was pretty worthless, so he wore it every day and said it was a lucky charm.You can’t hold it against him because he hasn’t returned you the ring. Since he doesn’t have manypossessions, he is unwilling to return it to you.”

“He’s not to blame, Inger Sumner.”

Eliana let out a sigh.

Eli resembled a person who had not fully matured. To him, having nothing in his life meant that, whensomething good came along, it couldn’t stay away from him for a second.

In the restaurant’s private room, the two guys seemed hostile toward one another. They couldn’t settledown anywhere since Maurice said it.

“You’re very kind, Mr. Moran. For the sake of making Eliana happy, you’re prepared to part with yourhard-earned cash in order to purchase an old ring. Is it worthwhile to do such a thing for her?”

When Eli assumed Maurice purchased a ring for Eliana’s sake, he was consumed with jealousy.

“That’s not important for you to know.” An arrogant Maurice sat erect in his chair.

“Huh? Mr. Moran, are you aware that Eliana shared a bed and slept with me?” Eli uttered malignantly.

Maurice’s pupils dilated and he was nearly unable to maintain his composure.

“A lady like Eliana is simple to fool. She will be friendly and sympathetic to those who seem vulnerablein her presence. She’ll be as obedient as a puppy if she’s given a few more perks.”

Because Eli hoped that Maurice would loathe Eliana, he concocted these falsehoods.

After that, he could…

Actually, Eli didn’t dare to devote much more thought to what he could achieve.

But to his amazement, Maurice had a smile on his face and he couldn’t help laughing.

“What’s funny about this?” Eli was perplexed by Maurice.

What was so funny to Maurice?

His incompetence made Maurice laugh. Just now, he was enraged to see Eli hugging Eliana, and hesnapped at her.

Up until this point, he was unaware that Eli had played a trick.

“Eli, you have no idea what Eliana is like. She will never be the person you described. If not, you willnot make every effort to keep her at your side.”

Maurice saw through Eli’s scheme and said, “You are so sad, Eli,” in a casual manner.

“Maurice!”

Eli was infuriated to the point that he couldn’t stand it any longer. He attacked Maurice like a lion in arage…

Eliana and Inger had just emerged from the restroom at that very time.

They heard a loud commotion coming from inside the private room before they even got to the door.

Hell had broken loose!

Both Eliana and Inger rushed to the door and opened it after looking at one another.

Eli fell awkwardly on the floor in the private room, sustaining facial injuries. He had a befuddledexpression on his face.

Maurice, on the other hand, stood stoically at a distance, staring down at Eli with a sneering smirk.

Everything before them was crystal-clear. They could tell that a vicious individual had just brutallyassaulted a victim.
