Chapter 114
“Eliza, if anything happens to Presley and Esme, I won’t spare you!” Riley left angrily, leaving behind these words. Eliza stood where she was, watching as he helped Presley walk away. Her eyes gradually turned cold. After a while, her cell phone rang. It was from Demarion. She knew that he must have been anxiously waiting at the entrance of the police station. Raising her hand to hang up the call, Eliza turned around and strode out of the police station. “Mr. Valentine, what are you looking at?” “It’s nothing.” In a corner of the police station, Elias withdrew his gaze. “What is that woman doing here?” The man on the side glanced at Eliza’s back. “Oh, she’s here to make a statement. One of her friends was kidnapped and abused yesterday.” Elias nodded and turned to look at the person next to him. “Something happened to her friend. Is she all right?” “Do you think she looks like she’s not? She’s definitely fine.” The man smiled. “Elias, you’ve been single for almost 40 years. Are you suddenly interested in such a big girl?” Elias gave him a cold glance. The surrounding air became cold. The man coughed awkwardly. “I’m just curious why you suddenly care about a stranger?” “She’s not a stranger. I’ve met her before.” Elias frowned and once again looked in the direction in which Eliza left. But it seemed that she had forgotten him. For what happened five years ago, did she… really forget everything?
Outside the police station. Eliza opened the car door and directly got into the car. “Mommy, daddy just called and asked us to go to the old house now!”
As soon as she got into the car, Demarion said eagerly, “Daddy is waiting for us at the door of the old house!” Eliza nodded, and then subconsciously looked at the clothes on her body. “Is it appropriate…for me to wear this?” Although she had met the Master of the Valentine family before, this was the first time she met Beau’s two older brothers. Beau was given birth at an old age. Although he was 28 years old now, his two older brothers were way older than him, even his second elder brother was almost 40 years old. Eliza always felt pressured seeing his two older brothers. “It doesn’t matter!” Demarion beamed. “Mommy, don’t be afraid! Eldest Uncle and Second Uncle aren’t bad people!” After that, he looked up at Braint, who was sitting in the passenger seat. “Braint, don’t you think so?” Braint, who had been looking at a distance came back to his senses. “Yea.” “Let’s go to the old house now!” Demarion said with a smile, “Let’s go, driver!”
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the Valentine family’s old house. Eliza got out of the car and looked at the majestic and magnificent villa in front of her. She felt very stressed. “Let’s go.” The man’s deep voice rang in her ears. Stunned, she looked towards the direction of the voice subconsciously. Standing two steps away from her was Beau, who was dressed in a black suit. He was tall, with a light, reserved and cold temperament. The midday sunshine made him look more noble and charming. He stretched out his hand toward her. She held his hand nervously. Feeling her tension, he slightly raised his lips. “Don’t be nervous.” Eliza bit her lips. How could she not be nervous… The family of four entered the old house. In the living room of the old house, the old master was sitting on the sofa drinking tea.
On his left, there was a middle-aged couple sitting on the sofa. They seemed to be Matthew’s parents. At this time, the middle-aged woman was complaining, “When Beau got married, he didn’t bring his wife back to see us. He simply doesn’t respect us.” “Now that he has something to announce, we have to obediently put aside the pre arranged things and wait for him here!” “He is indeed the future person in charge of the family. His temper is as bad as his arrogance!” “Speak less.” Gian, who was beside her, frowned. “Beau has his own considerations about everything he does. He is still young, and we are the elders. What’s wrong with listening to him?” Lucy pursed her lips and looked unhappy. “The company’s succession has already been conceded to him, how much more do I have to listen to him?” From afar, Eliza heard their bickering. Her heart froze slightly. It seemed that… the relationship between Beau and his family was not very good… “Uncle, Aunt!” Demarion rolled his eyes and shouted as he ran towards them. A clear child’s voice broke the tense atmosphere in the living room. Demarion threw himself into Lucy’s bosom with a broad smile on his face. “I miss you so much!” Lucy’s face softened when she heard the child’s coquettish voice. She liked children. No matter how much she hated Beau, she still could not hate his child.
She smiled and held Demarion in her arms. “You really miss me?” “Of course!” Demarion smiled and raised his hand to touch her face. “Aunt looks younger again!” Lucy was elated by the praise and completely forgot about the previous argument with Gian. “Beau is coming” Gian stood up and smiled at Beau. “Mmm.” Beau held Eliza’s hand and walked over. He introduced, “Big Brother, this is my
wife, Eliza.” “Eliza, this is my big brother, Gian.” “This is Eldest Sister-in-Law, Lucy.” Eliza pursed her lips. “Hello, Gian and Lucy.” Gian smiled and nodded. “You’re pretty. How old are you?” Eliza answered honestly, “I’m 23 years old.” “You’re the same age as Matthew.” Lucy looked contemptuously at Eliza. “What do you do?” “I’m an actress now.” “An actress?” Lucy’s brows twitched up. “What’s wrong with you? Why did you choose to be an actress?” “Women in the entertainment circle are nothing good.” After that, she rolled her eyes at Eliza and said, “Listen to me. Quit your job. It’s better to stay at home and look after the children for Beau than staying in the entertainment circle.” “Besides, isn’t Beau looking for a wife just to find a nanny who can take care of the two children? Is he willing to let you show up in the entertainment circle?” “Ah-!” As soon as she finished her words, Demarion, who was held in her arms by her, “accidentally” overturned a cup of hot tea. “I’m sorry, Aunt.” Demarion looked like he was going to cry. He said, “I didn’t mean to…” Lucy pursed her lips and placed Demarion on the sofa. “I’m going to change my clothes.” After she left, Gian looked at Eliza with some embarrassment. “Eliza, don’t take it to heart. Lucy is always like this. She doesn’t speak nicely, but she’s not a bad person.” Eliza pursed her lips. “It’s fine.” “All right, don’t just stand there.” The old master said, “Have a seat.” Beau then pulled Eliza to sit down on the right side of the old master “Where’s the second brother?” “He went to the police station early in the morning.” As the old master said that, he looked at the time. “He will be home soon.” Just as he finished speaking, the sound of the car stopping sounded outside the door. Not long after, a tall figure walked in. “Elias is here.” Beau reminded her in a low voice. Eliza quickly stood up, intending to say hello to his second brother. She looked up at the man in front of her. Why was it him? When Elias saw Eliza, he was also slightly taken aback. Why was she here? “Elias.” Seeing that neither of them spoke, Beau frowned. “This is my wife, Eliza.” Eliza came to herself and hurriedly said politely, “Hello, Elias.” “Hello…” Looking at Eliza’s face, Elias’s beautiful features instantly stiffened. O She had actually married Beau… Was this the will of Heaven? 2 Or did Beau find something…
