Chapter 616

Upon hearing this, Maurice’s line of defense had completely collapsed.

He could only stare at Eliana quietly.

Even though her face was tightly wrapped, he could still see her tearful bright eyes. Her gaze seemedto penetrate his heart.

“You little woman. I’ve finally found you…”

“Preston, I’ve been missing you,” Eliana said between sobs.

Maurice shuddered. He was at a loss for words for a while.

They hadn’t seen each other for a long time, and they obviously missed each other so much. Theybegan to kiss passionately, regardless of the presence of another person and the danger that theywould be discovered by Jonathan at any time.

It seemed that through this kiss, they could vent all the fear, longing, and worries that they had feltthese days.

Eliana had been waiting for this day for so long. So now that Preston was holding and kissing her, shecouldn’t extricate herself.

Leilani had already entered the room. But when she saw the scene, she immediately turned around soas not to disturb them.

The intense kiss finally ended. But Eliana was still caught up in the moment and couldn’t come back toher senses.

She wrapped her arms around Maurice’s neck, gasping for breath. Obviously, she was a littleunfulfilled.

Looking at her greedy appearance, Maurice couldn’t help teasing her, “You have no conscience. Youreally like Preston more. Or maybe…”

He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, “This is just what you like. Thrilling?”

“You jerk!”

Eliana suddenly came back to her senses. She pushed him away, her face flushed.

However, she couldn’t help smiling when she looked at the face that belonged to Preston.

She had thought of thousands of ways Maurice might take to save her. But it never occurred to her thathe would disguise himself as Preston and sneak in with Rosamond.

Eliana knew very well that Maurice used to get really jealous of Preston.

When Maurice saw that her mood had become better, he touched her face pitifully and wiped the tearsfrom the corners of her eyes.

He then asked, “Does it still hurt?”

Eliana felt like she was suddenly struck by lightning.

How could she forget?

Perhaps she got so excited when she saw Maurice just now that she forgot her face was still coveredwith gauze.

She hadn’t dared to look in the mirror these days. She must be very ugly now.

Eliana was so embarrassed that she wanted to escape. However, Maurice pulled her back quickly.

At this moment, Maurice turned to the door, looked at Leilani, and asked, “Leilani, how did her face getinjured? Have you found out?”

When she heard Maurice talking to her, Leilani turned around in a hurry. “Mr. Moran, according toJonathan, Miss Pierce’s face was scratched by the broken glass during the car accident. Every time thedoctor changes the gauze, he asks everyone else to leave the room. So, no one has actually seenMiss Pierce’s wounds.”

Leilani glanced at Eliana and continued, “Besides, we never dare to remove the gauze by ourselvesbecause we’re afraid it might hurt Miss Pierce.”

After listening to Leilani’s explanation, Maurice pondered for a moment. Then he turned to Eliana andfixed his eyes on her face. “Let’s remove the gauze now.”

“No, I don’t want to!” Eliana reflexively covered her face with her hands. “If Jonathan is telling the truth,my face must be ugly.”

Maurice looked at Eliana helplessly and dotingly. He gently took her hand and said, “Don’t be afraid. Idon’t care what you look like.”

“How can you not care?” Eliana pouted and muttered in dissatisfaction, “If I become ugly, you will bescared and run away.”

“No, I won’t. I swear.”

Under Maurice’s firm gaze, Eliana finally gave in.

He then helped her slowly remove the white gauze wrapped around her face.

During the entire process, Eliana was so nervous that her hands shook uncontrollably.

There was no woman who didn’t care about her appearance. What she was doing now was no differentfrom gambling.

Maurice noticed her nervousness, so he stopped and comforted her, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here now.You’ll be fine. Just trust me, okay?”

His comforting words made Eliana slowly calm down.

Finally, the gauze was removed, revealing her delicate and beautiful face.

Her face was still flawless without a sin
