Chapter 71 I Know Where He Will Be
"Aileen, you’re such a considerate girl!" Eliana kissed her daughter on the forehead and added, "But it’s time to sleep now.Look at your brother…"
They turned to look at Adrian, who was sound asleep.His long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and he was smiling as though he was having a good dream.
Aileen sat up and kissed Eliana on the cheek before she lied down again and closed her eyes.
"I’m going to sleep too.Good night, Mommy."
"Good night, honey." Eliana chuckled.
Gazing at her kids’ sweet sleeping faces, she could not help but sigh.Her kids were always so sensible that they rarely ever asked her about their father.
However, it was their considerate attitude that often caused Eliana to feel guilty.
Did she even deserve to have such lovely kids? As for their father… She suddenly remembered when Preston had risked his own life to save hers.
Clenching her fists, Eliana still felt like there was something sticky on her fingertips, and it was Preston’s blood.
At the same time, Nana was watching TV in the living room.

When she saw Eliana rushing to the door, she immediately caught up with her and stopped her.
"It’s so late.Where are you going at this hour?"
"I’m going to find Preston."
Saying that, she turned to Nana with a worried expression.
Preston had gotten injured while saving her, but she had only cared about Bradly.
In the end, he left alone.
The more Eliana thought about it, the more it worried her, and every minute that passed felt like torture.
Nana clasped her shoulders and looked straight into her eyes.
"Calm down, Eliana! You weren’t able to get in touch with him until now.How are you going to find him?"
"I know where he will be.And don’t worry, I will immediately call you if something bad happens," she said with a smile and hugged Nana.
Before Nana could say another word, she opened the door and walked out.
After taking a cab, she rushed to the Imperial Golden Club.
Once she arrived there, she quickly got off the cab, and ran inside.
At the same time in the riverside villa, a message notification came.
Maurice glanced at his phone screen and saw Eliana’s message.
"How is your wound, Preston? I am waiting for you at the Imperial Golden Club.And I am not leaving until you come." Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
With a cold sneer, Maurice tossed away his phone.
Although he had risked his life to save her, she had only cared about Bradly, which hurt him deeply.
In fact, she had not even noticed his wound before she tried to help him sit up straight.How could she start to pretend like she cared about him now? It was too late.
As soon as Maurice took a deep breath, he felt his heart and his chest ache.
"Corbin."
Hearing that, Corbin pushed the door open, rushed to his side, and stood respectfully.
Maurice ordered, "Don’t let Eliana get into the Imperial Golden Club."
He thought that if he prevented her from entering the club, then she would leave sooner.
Surprised, Corbin looked up and just met Maurice’s cold eyes.
"I’ll do it right now," he immediately said.
He was about to hurry back when he suddenly stopped before walking past the window.He saw the curtains flowing in the cool breeze, Corbin drew back the curtains and closed the window.
Thunder roared outside, and the sky was dark with heavy clouds, predicting a possible rainstorm.
"I think it’s going to rain," he said with a sigh.
Maurice immediately became intrigued and stared at the dark clouds outside.
The next second, rain poured down from the sky.
At the same time, Eliana, who was outside the club, was starting to get wet.
She turned to the security guard and asked in surprise, "Why aren’t you letting me in?"
The security guard remained expressionless as he said flatly, "Maybe you offended our boss.Hurry! Get out of here.Don’t hinder our business."
Soon the black gate was slammed shut in front of her face, the shiny surface reflecting her disheveled shadow.
All she could do was squat down in a corner to avoid getting soaked in the rain while she kept her eyes glued to the gate.
Preston… Did he really not want to see her? A strong gust of wind blew, soon bringing the rain to the dry corner where Eliana was.
Bean-sized raindrops fell all over her body, drenching her.
