Eleana somehow managed to return to the banquet hall without being caught by Lucia or Eduardo. Her breathing was haggard due to running so fast. For a moment, she almost forgot that she was pregnant. Eleana touched her forehead to check if she was sweating or not. To her surprise, her forehead was covered with sweat. Eleana didn't even have time to wipe off her sweat when she heard heavy footsteps coming in her direction, making her eyes go wide. She quickly stepped inside the banquet while using the back of her hand to wipe off as much of her sweat as she could. She felt relieved when she spotted Amara, who frowned at her. "Where have you been? I have been looking for you for a while." Amara inquired while walking up to her. Eleanor forced a smile at her. "Wait, what happened to you?" Amara added again, looking at Eleana's slightly messy appearance. Eleana grabbed her hand before pulling her into the crowd. She had to be back at the table before they came back here. "I was in the w

Eleana returned to the Santoro Villa with Ayden after finishing her task in the hospital. There were only two hours left till the engagement ceremony, which caused her to rush to the washroom as soon as she reached her room. After taking a quick shower, Eleana began to get ready for the party.She stood in front of her vanity, her reflection framed by the gentle glow of the dressing room's golden chandelier. Her fingers softly touched the assortment of garments hanging on the polished metal rail of the wardrobe. She chose a gown that shimmered like moonlit water, with cascading sequins that mimicked the starlit sky, after a moment's thought. Since it was an extravagant party, Eleana was certain that everyone would dress to impress. That's why she decided to pay extra attention to her appearance. Ayden was here too; it's been forever since they enjoyed an occasion together.Eleana slipped into the gown with ease, the fabric wrapping around her like a second skin. The neckline dipped ge

Ayden took Eleana's hands in his before squeezing them lightly to warn her. Eleana diverted her eyes from the people in front of her before glancing at Ayden. His eyes were fixed on her as he slightly shook his head, telling her to compose herself. Eleana took a deep breath to calm herself before nodding her head.They both walked towards an empty table before sitting down. Ayden helped her sit down by pulling a chair for her, making her smile a little at him. He then sat next to her."I have been looking for you. Someone said that, making Eleana look at them. It was Elio. He smiled at her before taking the seat next to her."Hi, Ayden." Elio greeted Ayden when their eyes met. Ayden smiled at him before greeting him back."Hi, Champ. How have you been? He asked while pointing his hand towards Elio for a shake. Elio reached out his hand before shaking it gently with Ayden's."Pretty good. I heard you returned in the morning but didn't see you around. " Elio responded while leaning back

The indifferent mask on Antonio's face dropped as he looked at Eleana with a hard look on his face. His eyes were piercing through her as he tried to read past the emotion she was showing on her face. He looked like he didn't believe her. Eleana let out a smile as she stepped back from him. Of course, it's not something that he could believe so easily because it hits directly at his capability and intelligence."You do not believe me, do you? Eleanor asked while turning around and showing her back to him. He didn't answer her and only kept staring at her back. While Eleana walked towards the family photo that was hanging on the wall. She stared at the photos with a small smile on the corner of her lips."Your first mistake was thinking that I wouldn't know anything about my mother before coming here. Eleana taunted with her back showing towards Antonio. She gently touched the photo of her mother just being a teen. She looked happy and carefree in the photo as he hugged her two brother

When Eleana returned from Antonio's study back to her room, she was surprised to discover Ayden wasn't there. She frowned as she called his name, hoping he was in the washroom. But to her dismay, the restroom was empty when she pushed the door open."Where did he go?" Eleana muttered to herself before grabbing her phone and checking the time. It was already around 12.30 a.m. Eleana sighed after realising it was almost midnight. She didn't realise she had been in Antonio's study for more than an hour.Eleana turned around while quickly walking towards her bed. After sitting down on the edges of the bed, Eleana decided to dial Ayden's number. When she unlocked her phone, she noticed she had already received two texts from him about an hour ago. Eleana frowned while rubbing her aching temple with her fingers. She left her phone in the room when she went to meet Antonio. She remembered her talk with Antonio, which made her feel sour. Eleana quickly shook her head to push aside those thoug
