Julian looked up at the city in the distance under the night sky, with a sneer on his lips. âItâs not that I want to compete with him.â âOr, I donât care who my opponent is.â With this, he turned his head and his eyes were arrogant. âWhat I care about is whether itâs someone I want and I like or not.â âIâm now sure that I want Eliza. I like her.â âSo, no matter who my opponent is, I will fight for it.â Looking at his gaze, Gloria frowned, âBut Julian, I heard that⦠you have an engagement, right?â âI just feel that since you have an engagement, and Eliza has also married Mr. Valentine, is itâ¦â âThat engagement means nothing to me.â
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. âI was told by Mr. Diaz that there are still two weeks and a half to the ending of the film.â âAfter this, I plan to go home and cancel the engagement.â After that, he turned around and glanced at Gloria. âTo know that I have an engagement, it seems that Miss Longâs identity is not simple.â Gloria smiled and said nothing, âI am related to your fiancee. Sheâs a distant relative of mine.â After that, she stretched. âIt seems that I canât be your relative anymore.â Julian curled his lips.
âNo matter who Eliza chooses in the endâ¦â He had to work hard for what he liked.
Early the next morning, Eliza woke up in the the Valentine familyâs villa. She opened her eyes and looked at the familiar ceiling. She was a little dumbfounded. Didnât she⦠go back to the hotel yesterday? Why did she wake up in her and Beauâs bedroom again? Had she time-traveled? Dreamwalked? âYou were drunk.â Just when she was still confused, a cold childâs 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. âYouâre here because youâre drunk.
Daddy brought you back.â âYou hugged daddy and cried last night, saying that he didnât like you.â Eliza, ââ¦â She quickly put her hand on her blushing cheeks. âYouâve learned how to lie.â Braintâs hand, which was flipping through a book, paused slightly. After a while, the little fellow took out his phone. âCome to the master bedroom.â Demarionâs unwilling voice came from the other end of the phone. âWhat do you want, Braint? Iâm flying a kite with Liliana.â âMommy said that Iâm lying and claimed that she didnât get drunk yesterday and cried while hugging daddy.â Demarion, âAll right Braint, Iâm going back now!â Eliza, ââ¦â She coughed and said, âWhat do you want Demarion to come back for?â âShow you the evidence.â
The little fellow put down the phone and said, âLast night, daddy asked us to take evidence and told us to show it to you when you wake up.â Eliza, ââ¦â âIs this your daddyâs idea?â âThatâs right.â Braint shrugged.
âDaddy asked us to record your crazy appearance when you are young and mock you when you are old.â Eliza, ââ¦â 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 didnât 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 didnât 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. âWhen will Demarion be back?â âFive minutes.â
The little fellow leaned on the small chair and said seriously, âThey are flying a kite in the backyard garden. It will take them two minutes to return to the villa from the backyard.â âKeeping the kite will take a minute, and coming upstairs will take another minute.â âAnd one minute for bickering with Liliana.â Eliza knitted her brows and was skeptical of what Braint said. She felt that Braint was smart and organized enough. However, he could not estimate time so accurately. But what she did not expect was⦠Five minutes later, the bedroom door was really pushed open. Eliza subconsciously looked at the time. It had just been five minutes since Braint hung up the call with Demarion.
Braint was a genius, wasnât he?
âMommy!â âMiss Lawson!â Demarion and Liliana pushed the door open and came in. They sat down beside Braint, one on the left and one on the right.
was The three little fellas were sitting in a row, making Eliza suddenly feel as if they were triplets. After a long while, she shook her head. She was really confused recently. Braint and Demarion were Chasityâs sons.
Liliana was adopted by Julian in an orphanage. How could they be related? 2 âMommy.â Demarion smiled and took out the tablet. He found the video and clicked the play button. âLook!â Eliza frowned and looked at the screen, In the video, she was held in Beauâs arms, her hands tightly holding his, crying sadly, âYou donât like me, wu wu wuâ¦!â âIâm not important to you!â âIâm so miserable. This is the first time I got married but my husband doesnât love me!â âNext time⦠Next time I will wipe my eyes clean and boohoohoohoo-!â Her wails came out of the tablet. Her voice was getting more and more shrill, and finally, it turned hoarse. Eliza, ââ¦â She could not wait to find a hole to hide in. She didnât even want to admit that this woman was her! She always knew that she was not good at drinking. But what she didnât know was that she was drunk⦠she would act like this. âDemarion, turn it off.â Her scalp tingled as she spoke. Demarion obediently turned it off. âMommy, donât drink again in the future!â âOkay, okay, okay, Iâm not drinking anymore!â She wouldnât drink even if she got beaten to death! It was too shameful! She deleted the video. She looked up and saw three pairs of pure and smiling eyes. Eliza, ââ¦â After watching the video of her making a fool of herself with the three of them, Eliza was a little⦠reluctant to communicate with them. Just then, her cell phone rang. She took the phone and glanced at it. It was Gracianaâs message. âEliza, are you awake?â She hurriedly picked up the phone and replied to the message. She coughed and said, âYou three go out.â âIâm going to reply to my friend.â Braint, Demarion, and Liliana looked at each other and stood up together. One kept the tablet computer, one carried a skirt, and one held a book. âWe are going out!â âOkay!â Eliza held her phone and looked at them with a smile.
She let out a long sigh of relief. She needed to calm down. âBy the way, mommy.â When he reached the door, Demarion suddenly remembered something and said, âItâs useless to delete this video. Daddy has a backup.â 2 Eliza, ââ¦â The door was closed. Eliza was lying on the bed in despair and chagrined while feeling glad in her heart. Fortunately, she only acted like this in front of Beau, instead of the actors and the actresses in the crew. Otherwise, how could she go to the crew for shooting in the future! At this time, Gracianaâs message came again. It was a video message. Eliza frowned and opened it. In the video, she sat beside all the crew members, holding a bottle of wine and crying bitterly, âBeau doesnât love me!â
Eliza, ââ¦â
