Smiling, Eloise looked at Lily and said, “You’re rejecting me because of my relationship with Nate, aren’
t you?”
Lily was surprised to hear that. She turned to look at Eloise with disbelief written all over her gaze. She
did not understand how Eloise could tell her the secret she had been carefully hiding for decades so qu
ickly.
“You don’t need to look at me like that. I know you’ve found out about it,” Eloise said faintly. ” I’m bringin
g this up because I want us to talk about things easier now that we’re on the same page. It’ll be difficult

his defeat, but he went missing. Still, how could a grown man like him go missing so suddenly? Did that
happen because of the bankruptcy?‘
“You don’t know about it?” Eloise observed Lily, trying to see if the latter was lying.
“Sorry. I have no idea what happened. Since you know about my past
relationship with Nate, I’m sure you know we ended things long ago. What he does has nothing to do w
ith me anymore.” Lily shrugged. She felt nothing apart from the momentary shock after learning about h
is disappearance. Anything related to him, including his disappearance, was none of her concern.
Eloise said nothing at first. She just gulped her sparkling water and put the can down harshly before sh

return to you, so why can’t you give him another chance to prove himself? Don’t you have any feelings
for him anymore?”
After a short pause, Eloise seemed aggravated about the
situation and said with a heavy heart, “I don’t believe you don’t love him anymore! You’ve done so much
