Chapter 612

Eliana subconsciously touched her face. She had only come to have her injured face healed.

But she was now skeptical.

“Leilani, now that my leg is okay, is it possible that my face has never injured at all?”

She felt a shiver down her spine whenever she thought about it.

Why did Jonathan insist on her having an operation if nothing had happened to her face?

And, what kind of surgery would it be?

Eliana was starting to feel uncomfortable about what was happening.

Leilani was taken aback and suddenly remembered what Maurice had told her.

“Mr. Moran has already investigated the car accident, Miss Pierce. He asked me to inform you that theaccident was not serious at all. It was only a minor one.”

“A minor car accident? So, why do I feel uncomfortable every day?”

Eliana hadn’t felt any pain in the last few days, but she was becoming increasingly weak and her spiritswere low. She believed she had not fully recovered from the car accident.

Leilani shook her head. “I sneaked into the infirmary when the doctor was making up your prescriptionand found a lot of anesthetics. Every day, he injects you with a huge dosage of anesthetics, leaving youweak and tired.”

Anesthetics! It was no surprise she usually had no strength to do anything.

Now, Eliana completely understood that it was a trap, and that the perpetrator was none other thanJonathan!

Jonathan took advantage of the car accident to deceive Eliana into believing she was disfigured and lether stay in the sanitarium.

What did he want to do?

Eliana felt like a butterfly caught in a web, unable to escape.

“Something is wrong, Leilani. We have to leave immediately!”

She stopped thinking about what Jonathan was up to and wanted to flee right away.

“Miss Pierce, Mr. Moran sent me to pick you up. Since your leg is already fine, we can go now. Mr.Moran’s car is parked nearby.”

Without further ado, Eliana and Leilani took immediate action.

Leilani had spent several days in the sanitarium. She was now familiar with the terrain as well as theemployee distribution.

The escape plan was going off without a hitch. Eliana could see the sanitarium’s gate.

Just as she thought she was about to escape successfully, a ghostly voice resounded from behind her.

“Eliana, where are you going?”

In an instant, Eliana stopped walking, terrified. She was very familiar with that voice.

She turned around mechanically and saw a gentle, smiling face.

However, Eliana thought the man’s attractive face was frightening and that he was a terrifying monsterat the time.

“Jonathan…”

“Isn’t it good to stay here, Eliana? You haven’t recovered yet. Why do you want to leave? Or do youwant to go out and breathe some fresh air? I can accompany you.”

Jonathan tried to deceive her once more with a gentle smile.

But Eliana had already seen through him. She decided to lay her cards on the table.

“Don’t act as if you care about me, Jonathan. What’s the matter with my leg?”

Eliana’s cast had been removed, which Jonathan noticed. He knew that his plan to trap Eliana hadbeen foiled, but he remained calm.

“Eliana, do you think I’m lying to you? The doctor made a wrong diagnosis.”

He sounded sincere and was not at all embarrassed.

Eliana thought it was ridiculous. Jonathan wanted to gain her trust by using such an absurd reason.

Had this man ever been honest with her?

Eliana looked at Jonathan’s smiling face, which was exactly the same as it had been five years ago.She just noticed the details that she hadn’t paid attention to.

If the car accident was a set-up, what about her falling into the sea and passing out years ago? Could itbe planned too?

Memories came flooding back. Eliana only remembered being ill and relying on Jonathan after fallinginto the sea and giving birth to the babies.

Jonathan had taken good care of her at the time. Eliana had even considered marrying him in return forhis kindness during the most difficult time of her life. In that way, the children would also have a goodfather.

She was in a cold sweat now that she remembered what she had considered at the time.
