Chapter 27
"Who are you going to eat it with? The people who arranged a birthday surprise for you?" Maurice asked coldly.
How could she leave him alone for the second time for the sake of the same people? Eliana nodded without hesitation.
"Yes, of course! I want to eat my birthday cake with the people who are very important to me."
"Is it your boyfriend?" Maurice gritted his teeth.
"Yes, they are my little lovers!"
She did not notice his anger at all.She quickly picked up some of the frosting from the cake and was about to smear it on his
handsome face.
But Maurice easily dodged her sneaky attack.He then held her hand tightly.
Since Eliana could not free herself from his grasp, she pounced on him.

Maurice subconsciously wrapped his arms around her waist, and the frosting was smeared on the tip of his nose.
Seeing that, Eliana burst into laughter.
Sneering at her, Maurice leaned closer.
But Eliana noticed that the frosting from his nose was about to touch her face, so she screamed and pushed him away.
Maurice rarely ever saw such a lively side of her, which made him smile.
"Ouch!"
But then she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her ankle, staggered, and was about to fall down.
Maurice quickly pulled her into his arms and asked, "What’s wrong?"
"My foot is hurting." Eliana frowned.
"I sprained my ankle when I was at work."
‘In the golf course? Why hasn’t she recovered yet?’
"I’ll take you to the hospital."
"No!" Eliana hastily stopped him.
"Hospitals are too expensive!"
"How poor is she?’, Maurice snickered.
‘Didn’t Gerald pay her?’ Thinking that, he suddenly leaned forward and carried her in his arms.
"It will cost you a lot more if you delay treating such injuries."
Hearing that, Eliana felt that his words did make sense.
In the hospital.
The doctor examined her foot and said that her bones were slightly dislocated, and that she would have to get treatment.
Eliana glared at the doctor, wanting to refuse.
"Will it hurt? If it’s going to hurt, then I don’t want it!" The doctor frowned disapprovingly.
"You will have to endure the pain.If you don’t get it treated right away, then you might not be able to walk well in the future."
Eliana shook her head.
She did not want pretend like she was overreacting, but in reality, she was really afraid of pain.
Seeing that, the doctor became a little impatient, turned to Maurice, raised her hand, and said, "Don’t just stand there.Come and
hold your wife’s leg, and do not let her move."
Eliana retorted hastily, "I’m not his wife!"
It was true that she was not his wife, but he was the father of her children.
"Oh, so you’re still boyfriend and girlfriend?" the doctor asked.
Glancing at Preston, Eliana answered, "No... Not really."
"Then what’s your relationship?"
The doctor tried to distract her by asking her casual questions while she swiftly moved her hands to treat her.Eliana
subconsciously tried to move her leg away from the doctor, but Maurice held it firmly.
"Sit tight," he said coldly.
She had nowhere to go, so she buried her face in his arms.
He felt her delicate face rubbing against his chest under his shirt, which caused him to stiffen subconsciously.
When she pinched his arm, he felt her body trembling.
The doctor quickly finished setting her bone.
"All right.Take rest, and don’t strain yourself too much."
”Thank you."
Eliana breathed a sigh of relief, brushing away the sweat on her forehead.She then gently moved her ankle.
The doctor looked at her with a smile.
"Are you that afraid of pain? How are you going to give birth to children?"
A long time later, Eliana said, "I won’t give birth to kids."
Deep down, she thought that Aileen and Adrian were enough for her.
"You’two are a handsome couple, so I am sure that your kids would turn out to be beautiful."
It was true, indeed.
Thinking of her adorable children, Eliana agreed with the doctor, but she did not say it out loud Soon, Maurice held Eliana in his
arms and left the hospital.
She seemed to be angry on their way back, and he could not figure out why "What do you do that made you both angry and
injured?"
Maurice asked indifferently.
Eliana instantly turned into an angry cat that was waiting for an opportunity to vent its anger.
"It’s all my boss’ fault! He insisted on monopolizing an elevator, and that caused me to be late this morning! And because of that,
he puñished me by making me pick up golf b***s for him.
I ran all over the golf course to pick up the b***s, in the scorching sun.
I got drenched by the sprinklers and sprained my ankle!"
Maurice immediately sensed that something was wrong.
She was not angry at Gerald; she was angry with him! ‘What is wrong with her? Why would she only remember me treating her
badly?’ "What do you think, Preston? Wasn’t he being too cruel to me? What a lunatic!"
Eliana was so angry that her face was red Maurice’s expression darkened when he heard that He tightened his grip on her hand,
and she immediately complained, "Ah, it hurts.
What are you doing?"
She glared at him coldly Maurice immediately loosened his grip and said expressionlessly, "I’m angry for you."
"But... Although Mr.Moran is a weird guy, he is fair when it comes to handling issues.
He punished the design director without hesitation just because she framed me.
And when I got wet, he lent me his coat..."
Maurice’s expression softened a little At least, she still remembered the good things he did for her.
Eliana sighed.
"I hope I’ll be luckier from now on and won’t meet him again."
Maurice sneered.
‘Not see me again? In your dreams!’
