Eli waited in silence for her answer.
After a long while, Eliana sighed. “To tell you the truth, this ring belonged to my friend’s mother. She has passed away. It is an important keepsake. I accidentally came into possession of it and then lost it. I have been looking for it for a long time.”
A keepsake… Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Her words tugged at Eli’s heartstrings.
“This is why I have to take the ring back. Do you understand?”
She looked at Eli earnestly.
“A few days before I found Lucky, my previous dog passed away. I believe that God meant for me to find Lucky. So I took it home. I wasn’t expecting the ring to appear a few days later. It was like magic. I’ve been lucky since that day.”
Somehow, Eli felt he could tell her everything.
“Eli, I know you regard this ring as your lucky charm, but it belongs to someone else. You don’t have to take something that’s not yours. You will have your own luck one day,” Eliana stated sincerely.
Would he indeed have his own luck?
Eli didn’t know what to say. No one had ever said something like that to him before.
Meanwhile, Maurice had been waiting for a long time and was worried that something bad had happened. He decided to find Eliana.
When Maurice arrived at the shooting scene of advertisement, he looked around and didn’t see her.
He grabbed an employee by the hand. “Where is Eliana?”
“Mr. Moran!” The employee felt flattered. “You mean Miss Pierce? She is probably in the lounge.”
Maurice hurried to the lounge.
Just as Eli was about to speak, he saw Maurice walking towards them.
Eli had a brilliant idea. He took Eliana’s hand, lowered his head, and frowned.
“Will I?” he asked in a fragile voice.
No one could look at the distraught expression on Eli’s face without feeling for him.
Eliana was no exception. She patted him on the shoulder and said affectionately, “Of course you will. Everyone has their own luck. Don’t be so sad. How about this? You can keep the dog. He will still bring you luck.”
The truth was that she couldn’t afford to keep two dogs. She was sad to let Bowling go.
Eli stepped toward her and wrapped his arms around her. “Thank you, Eliana. I’ll think about it,” he said in a warm tone.
From behind, the two looked extremely intimate.
Eliana was so elated from the triumph of reclaiming the ring that she didn’t notice how their posture seemed inappropriate.
When Maurice entered, he saw Eli standing very close to Eliana, lowering his head towards her face and talking to her confidently and intimately.
Eli’s eyes met Maurice’s and he gave Maurice a defiant stare.
‘Well, it seems that this guy really doesn’t want to work in the entertainment business anymore,’ Maurice thought.
His face suddenly darkened. He pursed his lips and the veins on his forehead twitched. Anyone who knew him well could have seen that he was about to get angry.
“Mr. Moran!” People around greeted him with respect.
When she heard this, a chill passed through Eliana’s body. She was about to turn around, but Eli suddenly hugged her.
