Looking at Elizaâs bashful expression, Beau sighed lightly and turned into the bathroom. Listening to the sound of rushing water, Eliza closed her eyes. When Beau came out of the bathroom, Eliza on the bed had already fallen asleep with a pillow in her arms. He smiled helplessly and walked over to rub her head gently. âGood girl.â She seemed to have heard his voice, so she frowned slightly. âAfter tomorrowâ¦â . He sighed and said, âI hope you wonât blame me.â Eliza turned her body around and continued to sleep.
Beau shook his head and went to the study. Sitting on the chair in the study, he took a deep breath and dialed a strange number. The phone was quickly picked up. âHamza is sleeping. Whatâs up?â Beau furrowed his brows and smiled. âAre you Sawyer?â âYes.â
The man on the other end of the line yawned and said in a faint voice, âI thought you are going to sleep with her after kissing her for so long.â âLooks like it didnât happen.â Beau was silent for a moment. âHas Mr. Chapman arranged everything?â âDonât worry.â Sawyer smiled, âEverythingâs ready here.â âAs for youâ¦â Sawyer paused for a moment and asked, âDo you really bear to hurt her?â âI have no choice.â
Beau took a deep breath. âIf possible, can you take care of her for me?â Sawyer frowned. âWhy donât you look for Julian?â Julian was Beauâs cousin. He also liked Eliza before. Most importantly, Julian was the adopted father of Elizaâs daughter. With this kind of relationship, even if Beau and Eliza broke up, she could use her daughter as a reason to get Julianâs protection. Why did Beau need his help? âJulian is too emotional. He will mess things up.â After that, he was silent for a while. âBesides, Julian has a girlfriend now.â Sawyer replied with an âohâ. âArenât you afraid that Eliza will be taken away by me?â âYou should know that we used to be classmates when we were in junior high school.â âYou canât take her away.â
Beau was full of confidence. âIf you could take her away, she wouldnât be her anymore.â In the end, Beau exchanged a few more words with Sawyer before hanging up. The night was long. The slender man stood in front of the French window of the study, staring at the scenery outside the window. After dawn, everything would be different, right?
Eliza woke up from the intense knocking on the door. Outside the door, Graciana was trying her best to knock on the door with her fist. âEliza, wake up!â âSomething big has happened!â Eliza yawned and slowly got up from the bed to open the door. âWhatâs wrong?â âSomething big has happened!â Graciana took out her mobile phone. What was being broadcast live on the phone was the press conference of the Benton family. The press conference was about the son of the former Master of the Benton family, Beau, returning to the Benton family Eliza yawned as she watched the live broadcast. âWhatâs going on?â Beau was a member of the Benton family. Hadnât Julian told her long ago? Whatâs there to fuss about? âItâs not like that!â Graciana frowned and pointed anxiously at the people in the live broadcast, âLook, who is sitting next to Beau?â
Eliza looked at it. In an instant, her pupils widened. It was no one else sitting beside Beau, but Joye, the daughter of the Chapman family, who replaced her identity and acted as a tyrant. Eliza felt as if her brain had gone through a momentary loss. âSheâs from the Chapman familyâ¦â âWhat does Beauâs return to the Benton family have to do with her?â Graciana sighed. âThatâs what I mean!â âI just asked Julian, and he said.â After saying that, she timidly looked at Eliza. âHe said.â Looking at her hesitating manner, Eliza rolled her eyes. âWhat did he say? Tell me.â âHe saidâ¦â Graciana helplessly rubbed the space between her eyebrows. âHe said that this is the press conference for the family reunion and their engagement ceremony.â With a âbangâ sound, the cell phone in Elizaâs hands dropped onto the ground. She subconsciously reached out her hand to cover her head. âNo⦠It canât beâ¦â There was a rumbling sound in her head. She couldnât hear what Graciana was saying. Her mind was filled with that sentence, âPress conference for the family reunion and their engagement ceremony.â The engagement ceremonyâ¦
Shouldnât Beauâs wife be her? Why was she here, and Joye was there? At this moment, someone knocked on the door. It was Demarionâs cold voice. âMommy, the car is ready.â Eliza and Graciana were both stunned. The car? Eliza was silent for a long time. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something. She opened the door and rushed out like crazy. âDemarion, you said that the car has been arranged⦠Are you going to send mommy to your daddyâs press conference?â âGo, letâs go now!â She was going to ask him on the spot! What exactly did Beau want to do? He was going to be engaged to Joye!? However, Eliza did not expect Demarion to look at her in confusion. âWhat press conference?â âThe car I mentioned is the car for you and Braint to move out.â Elizaâs body suddenly became stiff. She looked back at Demarion and asked, âWhat⦠did you say?â âDaddy has already made the arrangement this morning. Liliana and I will follow daddy, and Braint will follow you.â âDaddy also said that you should move out before he comes home.â After saying that, the little fellow even looked back at Graciana. âAnd Graciana, your boyfriend should be coming to pick you up soon.â âYou can move out as well.â âAfter daddy gets engaged to Miss Chapman, itâs not good to have too many women at home!â Demarionâs words made Graciana and Eliza subconsciously look at each other. In the eyes of the two women, there was nothing but shock. How could it be⦠âMommy.â
The crisp sound of Braint was heard from downstairs. Eliza subconsciously lowered her head to look in the direction of the first floor. Braint had already dressed up. Carrying his small luggage, he stood there and waited for her with a smile. âIâll be with you forever.â The little fellaâs words made Elizaâs heart fiercely stop for a moment. She bit her lip and closed her eyes, not willing to accept the fact. âWhat⦠whatâs going on?â Last night, Beau brought her to a party. He even accompanied her outside her motherâs ward.
He also brought her to watch the meteors shower at 1 a.m. Why did everything change as soon as she woke up? Why was she the last one to know that he was engaged to Joye? Why did he arrange everything all by himself? He also arranged which child should leave with her.
And⦠her friend Graciana. âI donât accept it.â
Eliza sniffed and directly strode downstairs to grab Braintâs hand. âLetâs go to the press conference!â She had to find out what exactly Beau wanted to do!
