Was it Preston?
Eliana’s first thought was that the warm arms around her must be Preston’s.
She raised her head and saw Maurice’s handsome and cold face.
He was the last person Eliana wanted to see right now.
“Maurice, why was Corbin at the scene of Hodge’s car accident?”
The question had been bothering her from the moment she saw Corbin.
Now that Maurice was here, she could demand an answer.
She didn’t want to believe that Maurice was the one responsible for her parents’ death, but why was
Corbin there? What on Earth had Maurice ordered him to do?
Eliana’s expression was cold, but her heart was burning with anger that threatened to set both her and
Maurice on fire.
Maurice was silent.
Eliana grabbed his collar in an iron grip.
“Did you plan all of this? You already knew my identity, but you didn’t deliberately expose me. Do you
think it’s amusing to see me looking for evidence beside you every day? If Hodge hadn’t told me, I
would still be in the dark. Maurice, how long do you want to play games with me?”
Maurice was flustered by Eliana’s rising hysteria.
He had never seen Eliana like this. She was like an erupting volcano in the form of a woman, or a glass
bottle vibrating at such high speeds that it was sure to shatter.
His mind was in chaos. He needed to explain. “Eliana, calm down! I…”
Before Maurice could continue, the door of the operating room was opened and a doctor emerged.
Eliana immediately approached him. “Doctor, how is he?”
The doctor sighed and shook his head. “I’m sorry. We’ve done all we can. The patient has suffered
extremely severe injuries and he has fallen into a deep coma. It is unlikely that he will ever wake up.
You have to be mentally prepared. Treatment is not inexpensive.”
Hodge might never wake up?
Eliana staggered backward a few steps until Maurice caught her.
“Miss, are you a relative of the patient?” the doctor asked.
“No, I’m just a person who knows him.” Eliana shook her head.
“Can you help me contact his family? We need his family to sign the operation agreement.”
The doctor handed over the paperwork.
Eliana lowered her head. She knew that Hodge had divorced and his children had gone abroad. He
had no family at home.
“I will sign it.”
Eliana took the operation agreement and signed her name on it.
It was so funny. A few hours ago, Hodge had been her enemy, but now she was trying to help keep him
alive.
While Eliana was lost in thought, a nurse came over with the bill.
“This bill is for Hodge’s family.”
Eliana took the bill, then walked to the cashier and handed over her bank card.
“I’m sorry, miss. You do not have enough money on your card.”
Not enough?
Eliana had been so agitated that she hadn’t even taken a proper look at the bill. Now she looked closer.
When she saw the huge number, her heart sank.
She couldn’t afford such an expensive treatment.
“Are you going to pay or not? We don’t have all day.”
The people in line behind Eliana began to complain. Eliana didn’t know what to do.
“Use my card.”
A slender but powerful hand gave a black card to the cashier.
It was Maurice.
Eliana opened her mouth to refuse. But she couldn’t. If this bill wasn’t paid, Hodge would die.
After the bill had been paid, the two of them walked back silently.
Walking behind Maurice and staring at his silent back, Eliana couldn’t help but sneer, “Why did you pay
for Hodge’s treatment? Aren’t you looking forward to his death? If Hodge dies, then no one will know
what you have done, right?”
