Chapter 312
The next day, in order to avoid the crazy reporters downstairs, Eliana got up early and planned to sneak out.
Before she went downstairs, she saw from a distance the swarm of reporters that had camped out outside her building the entire night. They started clamoring and then running away.
“I just got word that Eli is nearby! He’s likely with his girlfriend! Let’s go!”
In a matter of seconds, the reporters forgot about Eliana and abandoned her place of residence.
As far as they were concerned, Eliana was just some nobody who happened to be some rich married man’s mistress. Eli’s girlfriend was far more important and interesting.
Eli had done a fantastic job. He could be very reliable sometimes.
After leaving her home in haste and exiting the community, Eliana took out her phone and texted Eli.
“Thank you, Eli. I really appreciate it.”
Eli was walking his dog on the street near Eliana’s apartment.
This morning, he asked his driver to drop him off near Eliana’s place.
Then, making sure that he would be seen, he went into a popular cafe and bought two cups of coffee without wearing a mask or hat.
He did it all to distract the media.
When he received Eliana’s message, he immediately got back in the car and left.
In the vehicle, Eli sent a message to Eliana.
“What are you going to do next?”
Half an hour later, he received a reply.
“I’ll be in trouble again if things go on like this. I have to fight back.”
Eliana arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau gates and saw Erica and Sam, who had been waiting for her for a long time.
As soon as they met, Erica urged her, “So wise of you to come, Eliana. Let’s go and get you guys a marriage license.”
Erica trembled with excitement at the thought of Eliana marrying a male prostitute and then never showing her face again in this town.
Sam glanced at Eliana with lustful eyes and said, “Don’t worry, Eliana. I will be a good husband to you. I will take good care of you and our children.”
Looking at Sam, Eliana felt her skin crawl. She felt so disgusted that she could taste her stomach acid in her tongue.
“Cut the crap. Let’s just go inside and get this farce over with.”
Eliana strode into the hall, and Erica and Sam followed suit.
The receptionist raised his head and looked at the three newcomers in front of him. He knitted his brows in confusion.
“Good morning. How may I help you?”
Erica replied quickly, “These two are here to apply for a marriage license.”
The receptionist darted his eyes at the couple Erica pointed. The woman stood there with a look of disgust on her face while the man smiled smugly.
“Are you two really here to get married?” the receptionist asked.
“Yes,” Sam replied, beaming.
Eliana kept silent, turned around, and sat on one of the chairs.
The receptionist found it hard to believe that they were a couple.
But he still gave the marriage license application forms to them.
Erica stood aside and watched as Eliana and Sam filled out the forms. She was so excited that she didn’t even blink.
When she was about to sign her name, Eliana suddenly stopped.
“What are you waiting for? Sign it!” Erica whined.
“Before I sign this thing, I want you to tell me the truth.” Eliana flashed Erica a serious look. “Why did you come at me this time? Did you know that someone was plotting against me?”
It seemed that Eliana didn’t know who was behind all this.
Erica hesitated.
Eliana took the pen and pretended that she would sign her name on the papers. “I’ve already come here with you. What are you afraid of? Just tell me the truth, and I will sign these immediately.”
Erica really wanted to take revenge on Eliana.
She would get what she wanted soon as soon Eliana signed these papers. Besides, Eliana couldn’t run away now.
Gritting her teeth, Erica finally relented.
“Even if I tell you the truth, what difference does it make? You’re out of luck, Eliana. You have offended so many people, so someone deliberately framed you as Willard’s mistress. I think you know who you’re taking the fall for. Those reporters and gossipers are too stupid to realize that they are all used. I think you better sign the papers now.”
Erica was complacent.
She enjoyed controlling the future of others, especially that of her biggest enemy—Eliana.
“Thank you for helping me clarify the matter.”
Eliana abruptly put down the pen and put on a bright, wide smile.
“What are you doing? Are you insane?”
Surprised, Erica looked at the sweet smile on Eliana’s face. She wondered if Eliana had been badly upset and gone out of her mind.
Eliana picked up her phone that was upside-down on the table and showed the screen to Erica.
“Now everyone knows the truth.”
Erica took a closer look at the screen and found that Eliana had been doing a live broadcast the whole time.
