Chapter 538

Corbin couldn’t believe it. “Really? Didn’t Eliana always hesitate over a little money? Since she has topay so much this time, is she gonna do nothing about it?”

“Of course, she doesn’t have to worry about money anymore,” Maurice replied with a sneer on his face.“Jonathan will back her up.”

Whenever he thought of the relationship between Jonathan and Eliana, he would feel like there was asmall, sad stone in his throat.

Corbin shook his head. He just felt that there was something wrong.

“You know what I think, Mr. Moran?” Corbin said in all honesty. “It’s actually the opposite.”

Maurice raised an eyebrow. “The opposite?” he asked in a mocking tone. “What do you mean?”

“I think Eliana didn’t run away with Jonathan. Or else, why would he let her entertain those people inthe bar?” Corbin said after figuring out what was wrong with the matter.

Maurice looked at Corbin thoughtfully and soon his anger faded away a little.

Corbin’s statement made sense.

Eliana didn’t run away because there was another man…

Maurice smiled at the thought of it. He was beginning to feel better.

And now he had found her. He could just play along with her.

Meanwhile, Eliana thought that her real identity was still safe from Maurice.

She spent her whole day running for the factory. At the Imperial Golden Club, she had to deal withMaurice and Kelvin, a challenge of wisdom and courage. And finally, she had spent a huge amount ofmoney. By the end of the day, she was physically tired and mentally exhausted.

Eliana returned home.

Nana greeted her and then covered her nose to let Eliana know that she could smell the alcohol fromher. “Where have you been? Why do I smell alcohol on you?”

“Oh, that?” Eliana smiled bitterly at Nana. “I went to the Imperial Golden Club.”

“The Imperial Golden Club?” Nana said in consternation. “Why did you go there? You could have beenseen by someone you know.”

Eliana just kept quiet. It was really unfortunate that she met not just one acquaintance.

But…

“Nana!” Eliana grabbed Nana’s hand and said urgently, “You must control Corbin. Don’t let him go tothe bar with Maurice. He will be misled sooner or later.”

“Eliana, what are you talking about?”

Upon hearing Eliana’s words, Nana’s face flushed. Her anger brewing up, she said, “Eliana, don’t youever say that asshole’s name to me. He makes my blood boil!”

She hadn’t contacted Corbin for a long time. It took her some time to muster the courage to call himusing her new phone number. She wanted to inform him of her safety.

But that guy instead lost his temper with her. He accused her of leaving with Eliana without discussingit with him. He said that it was irresponsible of her to do that.

What he said made her furious, and she wouldn’t let it pass. She answered him back rather sharply.

And so ensued a big quarrel which ended up in discord.

For the next few days, she was livid that she found it hard to sleep at night.

Seeing that Nana was seething, Eliana realized that she was in a fight with Corbin.

“Nana, I know you and understand where you’re coming from,” Eliana said thoughtfully. “And I alsoknow that Corbin is not a bad guy. He just cares about you. Don’t be too harsh on him.”

“Oh, that?” Eliana smiled bitterly at Nana. “I went to the Imperial Golden Club.”

Eliana had to remind herself that it was not her place to meddle in affairs between lovers. So she wentto wash herself up and get ready for bed.

She was fine now, but Nana was in a mess the living room… Alone.

Nana remembered the last time she had called Corbin. She was chilly, and almost acrimonious.

Should she call him again?

She thought for a while and before she knew it, she was already tapping the dial pad of her cellphoneto call Corbin.

Corbin was still at the Imperial Golden Club with Maurice when his phone rang.

He took out his phone and looked at the caller ID. His face changed seeing the name of the caller.

Darn! Why was Nana calling him now? Why didn’t she call him earlier or even later? Why now?

Even when Maurice had drunk a great deal, he could still sense that something had bothered Corbinwhen his phone rang.

“What’s the matter? Who is calling you?”

“Nothing. Just a spam call. I’ll take care of this right away.”

With Maurice watching him, Corbin felt that he should take the call.

“Hey, you! How many times do I have to tell you not to call me again?” Corbin growled on the phone.

Nana was aghast! She was at the receiving end of his torrent of abuse even before she could sayanything.

The anger she had been suppressing exploded.

“Corbin! You asshole!” Nana was holding her phone tightly, shaking with anger. “I… will… never…call… again!” she said, punctuating every word with her
