Sitting on the bed inside the hospital ward, Eliana felt emptiness in her heart. She was still unsure if there indeed was a scar on Maurice’s chest.

Amidst the recent events, one nagging thought never left her mind. Eliana believed that Maurice might actually be Preston.

Otherwise, how could all these coincidences be explained? Something wasn’t right.

She had presumed that Maurice and Preston were one and the same. But since the two men appeared simultaneously on a previous occasion, her suspicion didn’t seem possible.

However, there were still too many coincidences between them. They also had the same scar. In Eliana’s mind, such details were hard to ignore.

Deeply lost in thought, Eliana’s eyes wandered the room until she spotted a shiny black object on the sofa.

As she leaned forward to get a better view, a look of recognition suddenly flashed across Eliana’s face. It was Maurice’s phone!

He must have left in a hurry, so he forgot to take his phone with him.

It was the best chance to finally learn the truth.

Eliana’s eyes immediately lit up. She leaped from the bed and hurried towards the sofa. Her fingers were mere inches away from the phone.

However, something unexpected happened. The door suddenly swung open and Corbin entered the room.
