Eliana’s body moved forward uncontrollably because of the sudden impact.

She was so terrified that her heart almost leaped out of her chest.

A pair of warm hands wrapped around her waist and pulled her back.

When Eliana came back to her senses, she was already in Maurice’s arms. He was holding her very tightly.

“Are you okay?”

Maurice’s low, hoarse voice came from above her head. Eliana’s face immediately turned red, and she jerked away from his arms.

“Ye…yeah” She shook her head, trying to calm her racing heart.

Corbin turned around and apologized, “I’m sorry, boss. It was my fault,”

“Be careful,” said Maurice, straightening his tie.

The car was restarted. The embarrassing stalemate was immediately broken after the minor mishap. The atmosphere between Eliana and Maurice became intimate again.

“You have yet to respond to my question.” Eliana dared not to look directly into Maurice’s eyes.

Maurice took the phone and pretended to examine the photograph. “I know this ring, and I’m actually looking for it,” he said calmly.
