Chapter 249

Discovering that Eliana had kids left Eli flabbergasted.

Eliana, who was blissfully unaware of Eli spying on her, held her children’s hands as usual and happilywalked them home.

On the way, Aileen, who was the simplest out of the three of them, realized that they were beingfollowed.

“Mommy, I think someone is following us,” she said in a low voice, shaking Eliana’s hand to catch herattention.

‘Someone’s stalking us?’ Eliana wondered with a gulp.

Countless horror stories that appeared on social media flashed through her mind, making her break outin a cold sweat.

Meanwhile, Aileen wanted to look back to see who was following them.

“Don’t look back!” Adrian hissed seriously in a low voice, squeezing Aileen’s hand to warn her.

‘What should we do now?’

Eliana’s heart was pounding against her chest, but she forced herself to calm down and looked aroundcarefully. The three of them were walking along a deserted path with no other pedestrians in sight. Itwas useless to shout for help here, so she had to replace another way on her own.

Noticing a bend coming up on their way, she relieved as there would many pedestrians ahead. Thenshe came up with an idea.

She gently squeezed the hands of the two children and gestured to the bend of the road with her eyes.In turn, the children gave her an imperceptible nod to show that they understood.

Mother and children all quickened their pace as they walked towards the bend.

Eli, who was secretly tailing them, lost sight of them all of a sudden. He hurried towards the bend tocatch up with them, but as soon as he turned the corner, he was hit by a stick.

“Get him!” Eliana shouted with a stick in her hand.

The two children grabbed their schoolbags and joined her, and the three of them beat Eli black andblue.

Afraid that his beautiful face would be damaged, Eli hunched over and crossed his arms over his head.

“It’s me, Eli!” he howled in pain.

It was not until then that Eliana recognized him.

Resisting the urge to hit herself on the forehead with her palm, she told the children, “Stop. I know him.”

Only then did the twins stop.

“Mommy, who is this weird guy?” Adrian stared warily at Eli, who was dressed in strange clothes tothrow off the paparazzi.

Pulling a long face, Eliana replied, “He’s someone I work with.”

Standing up straight, Eli looked at the two children in disbelief. “Eliana, you have children? Why didn’tyou tell me earlier?”

“You didn’t ask,” Eliana replied awkwardly.

At this moment, there was a sudden squeal from Aileen that made all of them almost jump in surprise.“Oh my God, I know you! You are a famous star, right? I’ve seen you on TV before.”

Aileen’s loud and excited words caught the attention of the people around them. Many of them beganto point and whisper.

Eliana bit her lower lip, knowing that things would get worse if they continued to stay here.

She had only narrowly escaped a scandal earlier, and didn’t want to land herself in another one justyet. With one hand holding Eli and the other hand holding the children, she shuffled straight home.

The first thing Eliana did after entering the house was bringing the children to the bedroom and gettingthem settled down.

Then, she went back to the living room where Eli was, intending to ask him why the hell he was stalkingher like this.

Unexpectedly, the main door swung open at that time, and Nana walked in. Startled by the sight of astrange man in the house, she blurted out, “Eliana, why did you bring Preston home? Are you going totell the kids that he’s their father?”

The two people standing in the living room were instantly petrified.

“Nana, look carefully. He’s not Preston! He is Eli Goodwin,” Eliana explained, shaking her head.

With a frown on her lips, Nana took a closer look and found that the man standing there indeed wasn’tPreston.

“Sorry, I mistook you for someone else. So you’re Eli, the hottest star these days?”

Nana stepped forward and blinked curiously at Eli, as if studying a rare animal.

“Hello,” Eli greeted, scratching his head in embarrassment.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Nana Marlin. I’m Eliana’s best friend. She told me that you bullied her afew days ago. Is that true? Since you’re here today, you better tell me the truth.”

Even in such a situation, Nana didn’t forget to seek justice for her best friend.

“It’s my fault for throwing away the diamond bracelet. Tell me how I can fix it. Whatever you want me todo, I will do it,” Eli said sincerely, looking at Nana and Eliana.

Nana pursed her lips in thought for a while. When an idea occurred to her, she snapped her fingers andsmiled. “How about you—”

“Nana!”

Eliana interrupted Nana and shook her head, signaling Nana not to go too far.

Nana’s shoulders slumped in disappointment, and she let out an exaggerated sigh.

“Fine, I’ll go easy on you since Eliana told me to. How about you… give us some signed photographs?You’re quite famous, right? Your signed photographs must be worth a lot of money.”

“I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you.” Eli shrugged and laughed at himself. “Thanks to Maurice, mycareer is destroyed.”

Hearing Eli throw the blame on Maurice made Eliana furrow her eyebrows in annoyance.

“It’s all your fault. You deserve it!” she retorted.

As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang.
