Chapter 613

Eliana was flustered. The more she thought about it, the paler her face became.

At this moment, Jonathan noticed Leilani, the maid beside Eliana.

He looked at her and asked, “Who are you?”

Eliana was even more agitated. If Jonathan found that Leilani was Maurice’s subordinate, they were

over. It would be more difficult for her to escape.

At such a critical moment, Eliana thought of a way out. Finally, she came up with an idea. She

deliberately put on a disdainful look and sneered at Jonathan, “You’ve already trapped me in this

sanitarium. Do you still need to send someone to monitor me twenty-four hours a day?”

As she spoke, she glanced at Leilani.

Leilani immediately understood Eliana’s hint. She said to Jonathan respectfully, “Mr. Bowman, I saw

just now that Miss Pierce was trying to escape, so I chased after her to stop her.”

Was it really the case?

Jonathan still had some doubts in his heart, but he was almost convinced.

“Okay, well done. It’s good that you were able to catch her. You can leave now.”

“Okay, Mr. Bowman.”

Leilani had no choice but to leave. She couldn’t expose her identity, so she had to be cautious all the

time. But before leaving, she glanced at Eliana with a little worry.

Eliana blinked her eyes to signal Leilani to rest assured. As long as Leilani was still here, Eliana

believed they would have a chance to get rid of Jonathan and escape.

After Leilani left, Jonathan took Eliana back to her room.

Her first attempt to escape had failed.

When Eliana entered her room, she lay on the bed, turned her back, and closed her eyes.

She was not in the mood to talk to Jonathan anymore.

But Jonathan didn’t leave. Instead, he sat on the edge of the bed with a gentle expression as if nothing

had happened.

He stroked Eliana’s hair like a man comforting his lover.

“Eliana, don’t get upset. It’s not good for the recovery of your wounds. Remember, it’s your face. And

you don’t want the treatment to take longer, right? You will make the children worry more about you.

Rest assured that as long as you undergo surgery obediently, you will be fine.”

Eliana got goose bumps in every place that Jonathan touched, so she tried to avoid his touch.

No matter what, she must escape. Maurice and the children were still waiting for her.

Eliana finally plucked up the courage. She turned around and opened her eyes.

“Jonathan, you meant that if I want to recover, surgery is my only choice, right? I’ll do it. Please arrange

it as soon as possible.”

Jonathan was a little surprised that she had changed her mind so quickly.

Eliana continued, “But… I have one more request.”

“What is it?”

“This is my first time undergoing surgery, so I’m a little scared. Can you let Rosamond accompany me?

She has helped me a lot, and I trust her. Besides, she is my mother’s friend. I hope she can stay by my

side during the operation.”

When Jonathan heard the name Rosamond, he thought of something. Wasn’t she the CEO of Deleon

Group?

Jonathan had investigated Rosamond before and knew that she was Ingrid’s good friend.

But he thought that if he let her come here, his plan might be ruined. He didn’t want to take the risk.

So he asked gently, “Isn’t it enough for you that I am here to accompany you?”

But unfortunately, Eliana remained firm. “If you don’t agree, I will never do the surgery. At the worst, I’ll

be ugly for the rest of my life.”

But Jonathan didn’t laava. Instaad, ha sat on tha adga of tha bad with a gantla axprassion as if nothing

had happanad.

Ha strokad Eliana’s hair lika a man comforting his lovar.

“Eliana, don’t gat upsat. It’s not good for tha racovary of your wounds. Ramambar, it’s your faca. And

you don’t want tha traatmant to taka longar, right? You will maka tha childran worry mora about you.

Rast assurad that as long as you undargo surgary obadiantly, you will ba fina.”

Eliana got goosa bumps in avary placa that Jonathan touchad, so sha triad to avoid his touch.

No mattar what, sha must ascapa. Maurica and tha childran wara still waiting for har.

Eliana finally pluckad up tha couraga. Sha turnad around and opanad har ayas.

“Jonathan, you maant that if I want to racovar, surgary is my only choica, right? I’ll do it. Plaasa arranga

it as soon as possibla.”

Jonathan was a littla surprisad that sha had changad har mind so quickly.

Eliana continuad, “But… I hava ona mora raquast.”

“What is it?”

“This is my first tima undargoing surgary, so I’m a littla scarad. Can you lat Rosamond accompany ma?

Sha has halpad ma a lot, and I trust har. Basidas, sha is my mothar’s friand. I hopa sha can stay by my

sida during tha oparation.”

Whan Jonathan haard tha nama Rosamond, ha thought of somathing. Wasn’t sha tha CEO of Dalaon

Group?

Jonathan had invastigatad Rosamond bafora and knaw that sha was Ingrid’s good friand.

But ha thought that if ha lat har coma hara, his plan might ba ruinad. Ha didn’t want to taka tha risk.

So ha askad gantly, “Isn’t it anough for you that I am hara to accompany you?”

But unfortunataly, Eliana ramainad firm. “If you don’t agraa, I will navar do tha surgary. At tha worst, I’ll

ba ugly for tha rast of my lifa.”

She could tell that, for some reason, Jonathan cared about her face very much. So she could only bet

this way to force him to give in.

There was a hint of hesitation in Jonathan’s eyes.

“Well… Give me time to think about it.”

Eliana was right. Her face mattered to Jonathan.

She was finally relieved. As long as he didn’t refuse, there would still be a chance.

“You have a rest first.”

Jonathan went out of the room, still thinking about why Eliana would ask for Rosamond to be there. He

had a feeling that things were not that simple.

When he passed by a corner, he saw the suspicious maid hiding in a corner. And it seemed that she

was talking with someone on the phone.

There must be something wrong with this maid.

Jonathan immediately rushed forward with a frown and grabbed her hand.

“Who are you talking with?”

“Ahhh!”

Leilani was so startled that she screamed. She turned around in panic, revealing the phone in her

hand. At this time, she had just dialed a number.

Jonathan grabbed the phone directly, wanting to see who was behind her.

A few seconds later, the call was connected, and a mature female voice came from the other end of the

line.

“Hello?”

It was Rosamond’s voice.

Jonathan recognized her voice at once. He immediately hung up the phone and looked at Leilani with

eyes full of malice.

He asked, “Did Rosamond send you here?”

Leilani seemed terrified. She shivered and replied, “No. Miss Pierce asked me to call her.”
