Chapter 267


    What was Nana thinking when she spoke a lie?


    Eliana was baffled.


    Rosamond wasn’t fooled easily. She said in a serious manner, “Nana, Huey will return before you


    realize it. I hope you two can find a mutually convenient time to talk about it. The exnation for


    abandoning my kid could not possibly be as bizarre as this one.”


    “All right, Miss Deleon.”


    Nana had to swallow her pride and ede to Rosamond’s request in order to keep Eliana out of


    problems.


    Rosamond immediately departed after stating what she had to say. Her arrival and departure were


    abrupt. Eliana finally got a glimpse of this woman’s style.


    She ultimately got them back home after this episode.


    Eliana drew Nana to her bedroom upon their return home and questioned her about her get away from


    the wedding.


    “Nana, please be honest with me. Why did you flee the wedding in the first ce? When you told


    Huey’s mother that you had illegitimate children, it effectively scuttled any chance of a rtionship


    between you and Huey, You realize it, right?”


    Eliana’s look was solemn.


    Previously, she just believed that Nana and Huey had a disagreement. Now, Nana had lied about


    having illegitimate children in order to keep Huey away.


    She was familiar with Nana. Huey must havemitted a heinous act, for Nana to obstruct their


    connection on her own initiative.


    Nana, realizing that she couldn’t keep the truth a secret any longer, eventually told her friend what had


    happened.


    “Please, Eliana, don’t take it the wrong way. I fled the wedding because the evening before the


    ceremony, I found Huey cheating,” Nana stated slowly and dropped her head.


    The embarrassment was excruciating!


    She dreaded being a victim more than anything else in her life. She couldn’t take the sympathetic looks


    of others.


    She decided to run away from the wedding rather than let everyone feel sorry for her.


    “Why are you being such a fool, my foolish girl?”


    Eliana’s eyes welled up with tears. The fact that Nana, who had always been thoughtless, was in such


    emotional distress surprised her. And being her best friend, she didn’t even know that was the case.


    Eliana found herself feeling sorry for and remorseful about Nana all of a sudden.


    She couldn’t help but console Nana by embracing her tightly. “Nana, please look up. Everything you did


    was correct. Someone else has reason to be embarrassed.”


    Nana smiled with tears in her eyes as she lifted her head.


    “I think you’re correct, Eliana. In reality, I’ve changed a lot since then. It’s time for me to be an


    independent woman. There is no such thing as a lifelong upant of an ivory tower. My early fantasy


    was to marry Huey and live happily ever after, just like a princess. Up until this point, I’ve only juste


    out of the dream.”


    Tears rolled down Eliana’s cheeks. Nana’s previously casual demeanor seemed to have changed


    dramatically in a very short while. That was not what she had in mind, though. Eliana wished Nana had


    always been the way she was before, so she wouldn’t have to go through so much.


    As soon as Nana saw Eliana’s tears, she grew nervous. “Eliana, try not to weep. I am not weeping.”


    Eliana wept as she said, “I’m struggling to keep my tears from gushing… Then… Please allow me to


    shed a few tears for you. I can’t help it!”


    “How about me!”


    Aileen had been listening in on the conversation outside the door. She hurried over with her small legs


    and leaped into Nana’s arms as her eyes filled with tears.


    “Aileen, please don’t shed a tear. Let’s give each other a big bear embrace.”


    They embraced each other, leaving just Adrian, the soled, at the entrance. It made him feel


    embarrassed.


    At this point, the dog sprung to his feet and barked.


    “Only you and I remain, Foodie. We can do this, too.”


    Adrian stooped to pick up Foodie and hugged it close.


    That night, Eliana was able to get a good sleep.


    The next day, she awoke early. Today was her first day back at the Moran Group. She needed to be


    well-prepared.


    However, there was an unexpected twist. An emergency call from the hospital alerted her before she


    left the house.
