Eliana had been staying in the villa for two days already.

Maurice had never shown up since that night. The servants of the Moran family, however, did not dare to let her go because of his order.

Nancy, on the other hand, made sure she ate nutritious food every day. Now that Eliana had completely recovered, she could no longer bear being imprisoned in his villa.

Moreover, Aileen and Adrian would be worried if she still did not go home.

Nancy came over with a smile on her face, looking quite happy, just as Eliana was busy thinking about how to escape.

She took Eliana’s hand and said, “Eliana, I’ve been here for quite a while, and it’s time for me to go. But before I leave, I want you to promise me one thing.”

Eliana, surprised and delighted, responded, “Mrs. Moran, I will promise to do whatever you ask of me.”

“Good girl. An auction is coming up in a few days, and I’m too old to go out. Please do me a favor and attend the auction on my behalf. You are free to leave after that. I’ll take care of everything else.”

Eliana’s face turned red unexpectedly when she heard that. Nancy had apparently read her mind.

Nancy was the one who helped Earle establish their family business. With her experience, how could she not know Eliana’s desire to leave?

So she went along with it because she wanted to use the auction to bring Maurice and Eliana together.
