Chapter 392

“Maurice wants you to wear this to the banquet?”

Nana picked up the dress from the gift box with disgust.

It was a purple velvet halter dress with only two tiny straps supporting the entire backless dress. It was

a bit thick and had a deep V-neck cut.

It was the kind of clothes that those social butterflies would choose.

Eliana was afraid that the tiny straps would break if she wore this dress. What if she accidentally

exposed herself? It would be so embarrassing.

“Why did that asshole choose this kind of dress for you? What does he mean?”

Nana was so angry that she threw the dress back into the gift box.

Eliana also frowned. She didn’t expect Maurice to choose this kind of dress for her. She had never

worn such a dress in her life.

“Maybe they sent the wrong package here. I’ll call him first.”

After saying this, Eliana immediately took out her phone and called Maurice.

The call was connected very soon.

“Eliana, what’s up?”

Maurice’s voice was deep and enchanting.

Eliana asked solemnly, “Maurice, did you ask Harriet to send the dress to me?”

“Yes. Did you get it? I’ve already made an appointment with the hairdresser for you. Corbin will take

you there later.”

Indeed, the dress was really chosen by Maurice for her. Obviously, he wanted to humiliate her.

Eliana was rendered speechless. She didn’t want to wear the dress at all.

She suddenly became sulky. “I won’t go to the banquet,” she said with a hint of disappointment in her

voice.

Maurice thought that Eliana was deliberately making trouble again, so he said coldly, “You have to. It

seems that you forgot my warnings yesterday. Behave yourself. Don’t always go against me.”

His words angered Eliana even more. She hung up the phone angrily and looked at the dress on the

bed with disappointment.

“It’s really that bastard who sent you this dress? Obviously, he wants to humiliate you.” Nana was also

pissed off. “Eliana, don’t go to that damn banquet. He can’t force you to do anything.”

She was so angry that she was about to throw the dress into the trash can. But Eliana stopped her,

shaking her head bitterly. “Nana, I have no choice. I have to go. I can’t afford to pay the price of

disobeying him.”

Nana’s eyes turned red. She gritted her teeth and hissed, “He is bullying you.”

Eliana took a deep breath and said, “I’m not afraid. Anyway, Maurice chose me as his date. And he

also chose the dress for me. If something really happens, he will also be humiliated. I hope he won’t

regret it.”

After a short while, Corbin came and took Eliana to the hairdresser according to Maurice’s instructions.

When Corbin got out of the elevator, he happened to bump into Nana, who was leaving.

“Nana, how are you?”

His eyes lit up, and he immediately walked up to her.

Nana was about to say hello, but she suddenly changed her mind.

She had a good impression of Corbin. But every time she thought of Maurice deliberately humiliating

her best friend, and he was an accomplice, she got furious.

So she snorted coldly and walked past him without looking at him or saying a word.

Corbin was confused. Why did Nana seem mad at him? They got along well the night before, right?

Why did she dislike him all of a sudden?

He felt strange.

Corbin walked to the door of Eliana’s house and knocked.

Eliana opened the door and said with an expressionless face, “You’re here. Let’s go.”

He was even more confused. Why was Eliana also behaving strangely today?

Was she reluctant to go to the banquet with Mr. Moran?

Corbin couldn’t figure out what was going on.

He had no choice but to bring the silent Eliana to the hairdresser.

Coincidentally, Harriet was also there, perming her hair.

Corbin stopped and looked at her, feeling annoyed.

Why was Harriet here?

He couldn’t let the two women meet. Otherwise, there would be big trouble.

Corbin turned to Eliana and said cautiously, “Eliana… How about going to a different hairdresser?”

Eliana also saw Harriet at this time, and she didn’t want to make any trouble, so she agreed directly.

But when the two of them were about to leave, Harriet unexpectedly saw them.

“Eliana, you’re here too.”
