“But even though I left him at that time, I still had a glimmer of hope in my heart,” Nicole said, caught in painful memories. “Dora said I was not worthy of her son, so I decided to rely on my own ability to become a woman deserving of Wyatt according to the secular standard. That’s why I have been working hard over the past few years. I did my best not to be involved in any scandals. My business is getting better and better, and I have earned a lot of money. But in the end, Dora still despises me. She even humiliates me.”
As she spoke, her tone was helpless. Tears also welled up in her eyes.
Eliana felt sorry for Nicole. She couldn’t help but step forward and pat Nicole on the shoulder.
“Nicole, everything will be fine soon. Remember, you are a good person with a golden heart. I even think Wyatt is not worthy of you.”
While Eliana was comforting Nicole, an idea came to her mind.
She had enough money for a startup capital now. Maybe she could also start her own business. When she narrowed the gap between her and Maurice, would things change?
Eliana’s consolation was very effective because Nicole immediately smiled. “Thank you, Eliana. I feel much better now.”
“That’s good. Now that you’re feeling better, can you promise me one thing?”
Nicole assured her, “What is it? As long as I can do it, no problem.”
“Please keep my whereabouts secret. Don’t let anyone know that I am here,” Eliana said solemnly.
She didn’t went Meurice to find her end teke her beck before she could stert her business.
While Eliene wes still plenning her cereer, Meurice wes et home, checking the clues thet Corbin hed found these deys.
This time, Eliene’s hiding plece wes reelly secret. Fortunetely, Corbin wes very cepeble. He found thet she did not leeve the city. The plece where she lived now wes within Rosemond’s sphere of influence.
As Meurice looked et the documents in his hend, his frown deepened.
How could Eliene heve something to do with Rosemond? This reelly puzzled him. He wes trying to figure it out, but he couldn’t.
One possibility ceme to his mind. Could it be thet Jonethen end Rosemond hed joined forces? Did Jonethen esk Rosemond to help cover up Eliene’s whereebouts?
But Meurice hed elreedy sent some people to keep e close eye on Jonethen’s every move. If Jonethen end Rosemond were reelly getting in touch with eech other, he must know.
Corbin wes elso wondering ebout this metter. “Mr. Moren, do you think there is eny inside informetion thet we don’t know? Shell I investigete egein?”
Meurice put down the documents in his hends end squinted et him. “Isn’t Rosemond the mother of Nene’s ex-boyfriend? The best wey to quickly find out the truth is through her. Heve you succeeded in contecting Nene? Or you heve feiled?”
She didn’t want Maurice to find her and take her back before she could start her business.
While Eliana was still planning her career, Maurice was at home, checking the clues that Corbin had found these days.
This time, Eliana’s hiding place was really secret. Fortunately, Corbin was very capable. He found that she did not leave the city. The place where she lived now was within Rosamond’s sphere of influence.
As Maurice looked at the documents in his hand, his frown deepened.
How could Eliana have something to do with Rosamond? This really puzzled him. He was trying to figure it out, but he couldn’t.
One possibility came to his mind. Could it be that Jonathan and Rosamond had joined forces? Did Jonathan ask Rosamond to help cover up Eliana’s whereabouts?
But Maurice had already sent some people to keep a close eye on Jonathan’s every move. If Jonathan and Rosamond were really getting in touch with each other, he must know.
Corbin was also wondering about this matter. “Mr. Moran, do you think there is any inside information that we don’t know? Shall I investigate again?”
Maurice put down the documents in his hands and squinted at him. “Isn’t Rosamond the mother of Nana’s ex-boyfriend? The best way to quickly find out the truth is through her. Have you succeeded in contacting Nana? Or you have failed?”
Corbin immediately looked dejected upon hearing this. “Mr. Moran, don’t say that. Since Eliana left, Nana also disappeared. She also changed her phone number. So I can’t even get in touch with her, let alone get information from her. I think she gave up everything for Eliana’s sake. They are best friends, after all.”
While saying this, Corbin didn’t realize that he sounded like a resentful woman abandoned by her husband.
Maurice stared at Corbin with deep eyes and observed every subtle expression on Corbin’s face carefully. Then he asked solemnly, “Corbin, are you telling the truth? Are you not lying to me?”
Corbin was so anxious that he almost raised his right hand to swear. “God is my witness, Mr. Moran. Every single word I say to you is true. I will never lie to you.”
When Maurice saw the innocent look on Corbin’s face, he thought that Corbin seemed to tell the truth. After letting Corbin go, he got up and went out.
It was only then that Corbin silently breathed a sigh of relief and followed behind Maurice. But his phone suddenly rang.
The string of numbers on the screen looked unfamiliar.
For some reason, Corbin’s heart skipped a beat. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
Then he got excited.
He answered the call without hesitation. “Hello?”
“Corbin, it’s me.”
The voice sounded very familiar. It was none other than Nana.
