Chapter 548

Maurice held Eliana’s waist and asked in a hoarse, magnetic voice, “Eliana, do you love me?”

Eliana was taken aback by his sudden question. Her body began to tremble and her brain went blank.She didn’t know how to answer.

With no satisfactory reply, a look of disappointment appeared in Maurice’s eyes.

The woman… Was she still unwilling to tell him the truth?

The desire that was burning in him a moment ago suddenly disappeared. As he got up to leave, Elianasuddenly held his arm.

“Maurice, what about you? Do you love me?”

Eliana had to gather all her courage to ask him that. Sweat trickled down her forehead, but her eyeswere bright.

Maurice shuddered. His heart was pounding in his chest at this moment. He knew the answer.

He loved her!

But he had such a hard time saying those three simple words.

Eliana slowly let go of Maurice’s arm, and the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.

It was Maurice’s turn to feel nervous. The desire in his heart had returned as suddenly as it haddisappeared!

At that moment, the desire he felt for Eliana was even more intense. The next moment he leaned hisbody against Eliana’s and started another round of sex.

Maurice made love to Eliana passionately. It was as if he was using his body to tell her those words hecouldn’t pronounce.

When it was finally over, Eliana was so tired that she fell asleep.

Maurice kissed her on the forehead before going to the bathroom.

When he came out of the bathroom, he found that it was already dawn. Sunbeams passed through theglass window into the room.

He carefully closed the curtain and then took his phone from the bedside table. When he turned on thephone, he found that Harriet had called him a dozen times.

He guessed it was about Kelvin.

He just ignored it.

At this moment, the alarm clock of Eliana’s cellphone rang.

The loud noise startled Eliana, who had just fallen asleep, and she sprang up from the bed.

Still sleepy, she muttered, “It’s time to send the children to school.”

She lifted the quilt over her body and was about to get off the bed to wash. However, the sharp painthroughout her body reminded her of the crazy night she had had.

At this moment, everything came back to her.

The club, Jennifer, Kelvin, Maurice, the red wine spilled all over her…

It all came flashing in her mind.

Eliana turned her head slowly and saw Maurice’s smiling face.

She was doomed…

How could she forget that she was in the hands of this devil again?

“You are awake. It’s been a long time since we last saw each other,” Maurice said playfully.

“Well… It’s not been that long,” Eliana replied awkwardly.

Maurice slowly poured himself a glass of water. He then looked at Eliana and asked calmly, “Tell me,why did you run away this time?”

Eliana didn’t reply and just subconsciously avoided his gaze.

“Are you still not going to tell the truth?”

Maurice sneered. Now that his desire had been satisfied, the anger that had been suppressed in hisheart surged again.

Eliana felt the coldness emanating from Maurice, and she couldn’t help shivering. However, she grittedher teeth and still refused to speak.

“Eliana? Are you heartless?”

Maurice clutched the cup so tightly in his hand that it nearly broke, and his gaze was intimidating. “All Iwant from you is for you to tell me the truth. I can give you anything you want. I took your children in,but why did you run away?”

His words were like a knife stabbing in Eliana’s chest.

She knew all that Maurice had done for her, but…

Earle’s warning echoed in her mind again. If she didn’t make up her mind to leave Maurice, he wouldlose everything.

She didn’t want his life to be ruined because of her!

“Maurice, there is no reason. We are just not meant to be together. Even if we insist on being togethernow, we will definitely separate in the future.” Although Eliana tried to seem calm, her hands under thequilt were clenched tightly.

Maurice stared at Eliana silently. She sounded so heartless! However, he could read the sadness in hereyes.

There was definitely something wrong.

Eliana had never said that they weren’t meant to be together in the past.

“Eliana, did my grandfather say something to you?” Maurice suddenly asked in a low voice.

Eliana’s heart began to beat faster upon hearing Maurice’s question. She immediately denied.

“No, of course not!”
