“It’s over. My heart can now enjoy some peace.”

Eliana leaned back in her chair and looked over the design draft on the computer with a sigh of contentment. The day had come to a close for her.

She took a peek at her phone and saw that it was still early.

What if she left work early today? That way, she was able to avoid seeing Maurice and still pick up the children.

Eliana hurriedly packed up and left the workplace, thinking it was a wonderful idea.

Maurice and Corbin were standing nearby with a Rolls-Royce parked in front of them as she approached the corporate gate.

Could Eliana go back unnoticed?

Corbin waved at Eliana when he saw her standing outside the company’s gate. “What a coincidence! You finished up your work early today. What’s your plan?” he asked.

“The timing couldn’t be better! It seems that Mr. Moran also leaves work at this time. I have an errand to attend to near Glamor Road.” Eliana feigned a grin as she stealthily retracted her left leg and turned to face the other direction.

Adrian and Aileen’s kindergarten was located close to Glamor Road.

Eliana was certain that Maurice would find no errors in her assertions.

It dawned on Corbin that they were both headed in the same direction.
