“What brings you here, Preston?”

Eliana was taken aback and ashamed at the same time.

As it turned out, Preston hadn’t come any close to her since professing his feelings for her and got rejected.

Initially, she felt he wouldn’t want to lay his eyes on her again.

Maurice cast a sidelong look at Jordy and snarled, “Why have you asked that? I’m sorry if I’ve interrupted you two.”

Eliana didn’t realize how close she was to Jordy until then, so she instantly distanced herself from him.

When he saw her reaction, Maurice’s expression softened a little.

“Wait, Preston, did someone tell you that I was here?” The look on Eliana’s face was skeptical. “Are you following my movements?”

Maurice had a smirk. “You’re overanalyzing everything. I can’t afford even a second for that.”

“Then how come you’re in this eatery?” Eliana was doubtful.

“This eatery is well-known around here. A friend of mine told me about this place, so I decided to check it out. I had no idea you’d show up here.”
