Chapter 160
Julian looked up at the city in the distance under the night sky, with a sneer on his lips. “It’s not that I want to compete with him.” “Or, I don’t care who my opponent is.” With this, he turned his head and his eyes were arrogant. “What I care about is whether it’s someone I want and I like or not.” “I’m now sure that I want Eliza. I like her.” “So, no matter who my opponent is, I will fight for it.” Looking at his gaze, Gloria frowned, “But Julian, I heard that… you have an engagement, right?” “I just feel that since you have an engagement, and Eliza has also married Mr. Valentine, is it…” “That engagement means nothing to me.”
The woman he had been engaged to was still missing. 6 Maybe she was already married, or maybe she had died a long time ago. He could not let a woman whose life was uncertain be his fiancee. He looked down at his cell phone faintly. “I was told by Mr. Diaz that there are still two weeks and a half to the ending of the film.” “After this, I plan to go home and cancel the engagement.” After that, he turned around and glanced at Gloria. “To know that I have an engagement, it seems that Miss Long’s identity is not simple.” Gloria smiled and said nothing, “I am related to your fiancee. She’s a distant relative of mine.” After that, she stretched. “It seems that I can’t be your relative anymore.” Julian curled his lips. “No matter who Eliza chooses in the end…” He had to work hard for what he liked.
Early the next morning, Eliza woke up in the the Valentine family’s villa. She opened her eyes and looked at the familiar ceiling. She was a little dumbfounded. Didn’t she… go back to the hotel yesterday? Why did she wake up in her and Beau’s bedroom again? Had she time-traveled? Dreamwalked? “You were drunk.” Just when she was still confused, a cold child’s voice rang in her ear. Eliza frowned and quickly sat up from the bed. On the carpet in the bedroom, Braint was holding a book and sitting on a small stool to guard her.
The little boy continued to flip the book without raising his head. “You’re here because you’re drunk. Daddy brought you back.” “You hugged daddy and cried last night, saying that he didn’t like you.” Eliza, “…” She quickly put her hand on her blushing cheeks. “You’ve learned how to lie.” Braint’s hand, which was flipping through a book, paused slightly. After a while, the little fellow took out his phone. “Come to the master bedroom.” Demarion’s unwilling voice came from the other end of the phone. “What do you want, Braint? I’m flying a kite with Liliana.” “Mommy said that I’m lying and claimed that she didn’t get drunk yesterday and cried while hugging daddy.” Demarion, “All right Braint, I’m going back now!” Eliza, “…” She coughed and said, “What do you want Demarion to come back for?” “Show you the evidence.”
The little fellow put down the phone and said, “Last night, daddy asked us to take evidence and told us to show it to you when you wake up.” Eliza, “…” “Is this your daddy’s idea?” “That’s right.” Braint shrugged. “Daddy asked us to record your crazy appearance when you are young and mock you when you are old.” Eliza, “…” Was it fun for him? She pursed her lips. Just as she was about to say that she did not want to look at it, she stopped. If she said that she didn’t want to look at it, with the intelligence of Braint and Demarion, they would definitely not let her come in contact with this video. Then how could she find an opportunity to delete it? She didn’t want them to really keep this video and laugh at her when she got old! Thinking of this, she looked at Braint and smiled awkwardly. “When will Demarion be back?” “Five minutes.”
