The tense atmosphere was getting more unbearable by the second. The mounting suspense and drama made Eliana feel depressed.

She knew she had to do something to get out of this mess this instant, or there would be severe consequences.

“Enough of this nonsense, Eli. Let go of me.”

Eliana broke free from Eli’s arms and distanced herself from the men’s heated confrontation.

Her actions worked like a charm, suddenly extinguishing the anger in Maurice’s heart.

“Go on about your business.”

As soon as he finished his words, Maurice turned around and left the room.

It seemed the impending crisis was finally averted.

Now that she was free from Maurice’s icy stare, Eliana breathed a sigh of relief.

‘Well, what do we have here? It seems this woman has a deep relationship with the CEO of the Moran Group. How interesting!’

With this realization in mind, Eli looked at Eliana with a mischievous grin and said, “I see you’ve been busy entertaining a lot of men recently.”

Eliana ignored Eli’s remark, and her determined expression remained unchanged. She just wanted to get Preston’s ring back.

“It’s none of your business. You have something that belongs to me. Give it back.”

“As I said earlier, as long as you can prove that the ring is yours, I will happily return it to you,” Eli replied with a sneer.
