Chapter 73

Get Sucked Deep Inside

Soon, the shirt was removed, revealing Maurice’s sculpted body.His strong abs were wrapped in a thick
layer of gauze, and the blood from the wound had already dried up.A strong wave of male hormones hit
Eliana’s senses.But at the moment, he looked kind of fragile.

These two extreme feelings showed on him at the same time, and she couldn’t even look away.

Tossing away his shirt, Maurice leaned closer.She felt his deep gaze piercing through her heart like a
sword.Her heart began to race, and she began to breathe rapidly as he got closer and closer to her.

All of a sudden, a bath towel fell over her head.And Eliana couldn’t see anything.

Maurice was the one who threw it on her.

"Dry your hair first.Don’t blame me later if you fall sick," he said in a low voice.

Pulling the bath towel away, Eliana looked at him and said, "I got it."



"Are you disappointed?"

Maurice’s lips curled into a sneer as he added, "What did you think I was going to do?"

"No… Nothing."

Eliana’s face turned red and she suddenly felt hot as she looked down at the gauze around his waist,
her heart clenching. She touched it and said in a low whisper, "You got injured because of me, and
without even noticing it, I was being so fierce to you…"




There was a clear hint of regret and apology in her tone.

Maurice was surprised by her sudden touch and could not help tremble.Holding her hand, he let out a
heavy breath and said in a low voice, "There is no need for you to apologize.Just take care of yourself,
okay?"

He then stared deep into her eyes.

"And don’t go to such dangerous places again."

Eliana was deeply touched by his concern for her.

Seeing that, she instantly realized that Preston really cared about her, Even though it was her stupidity
that had caused him the injury.

"Okay," she replied with difficulty in a hoarse voice.

Hearing that, Maurice let go of her hand.She took a deep breath, not daring to look at him.

In her eyes, Maurice was a black hole that made her want to get sucked deep inside.

Randomly drying her wet hair, she suddenly said, "I will get your ring back as soon as possible."

Staring at her, Maurice remained silent.

The next morning, in the Moran Group’s office.

Eliana was lost in thought for a long time before she finally pressed the elevator button to the top floor
of the building.

Since Corbin had already made things clear to her, she did not have to bother herself anymore.She
knew that she had to ask for Maurice’s help to get an Argyle red diamond.



As soon as the elevator doors opened, she saw a doctor walking past her.

Seeing the doctor, Eliana was surprised.

‘What happened? Why is a doctor coming out of Mr.Moran’s office? Is he sick?’ Although Maurice’s
office door was open, she could not hear any response from the inside even after knocking on it.

She entered the office immediately, but there was no one sitting behind the desk.She then turned
around and was a little surprised to see Maurice sitting on the sofa.
