Chapter 30 He Could See Now
Eleanor stopped, turned around to look at the man in the wheelchair. Even though he was siting, he remained the most appealing and had an air of authority.
She gazed at him silently, waiting for him to speak once more.
Sebastian gave her a glance tentatively. Michael wasn't the one to create problems where there were none, and if he wasn't sure it was Eleanor, he wouldn't have made such a scene. He simply asked, "Are you sure you have nothing to do with what happened tonight?"
Eleanor's eyes blinked, and she retorted with a smile, "Are you suggesting you'd like it to be related to me, or perhaps you'd want me to cheat on you?"
Sebastian's face immediately turned gloomy.
He had Christian investigate Eleanor's background. She was an orphan and graduated from a foreign design college. However, there was little additional information available.
As he gazed at her pure smile, he felt butterflies in his stomach.
He narrowed his eyes at her. Her smile was captivating, while others couldn't discern the emotions behind it. Nevertheless, he had a vague sense that what happened tonight had been a trap for Michael.
Eleanor believed that he was clever enough to see through the situation. It was natural for Sebastian to have doubts about her.
"Behave yourself," Sebastian warned her.
"Behave myself? Mr. Moore, are you implying that others can pick on me, but I can't retaliate and cause you trouble?" Her voice was clear and cold.
"Do you know that while you were in a coma, they were even picking on Waylon? Are we supposed to just endure that?"
Sebastian pressed his lips as he was opposed by the woman. Without saying anything, he just thought of getting revenge to those who bullied his son."Go back to the bedroom and rest," Sebastian finally said in a terse tone.
As Vincent wheeled him back to his room, he decided to allow his son to stay with Eleanor if he liked.
While passing by Eleanor, Vincent sneakily gave her a thumbs-up.
She was the first woman bold enough to challenge Mr. Moore!
Eleanor was a bit speechless. Others might fear Sebastian, but she didn’t.
After Eleanor carried her son into the bedroom and they settled into bed, Waylon said, "They seem determined to tarnish your reputation. What happened with Michael tonight won't simply be over. Someone with malicious intent will probably make up the story and spread rumors."
Hearing her son's words, Eleanor’s heart stung, and she looked down at him. Her son lived in such a complex family everyday and at such a young age, he had to think and act like a grown-up with a sharp mind.
"It's alright. Let them say what they want. We'll just go to sleep," Eleanor said and turned off the light. She tucked her son in and closed her eyes.
In Sebastian's room, he sat by the window, looking out at the dimly lit garden in the courtyard. There was indifference in his eyes.
After a prolonged silence, he finally asked, "Are you certain Eleanor didn't leave her room tonight?"
Vincent replied, "Mr. Moore, I had been standing in front of her door, and Kingston was downstairs. Mrs. Moore didn't leave her room."
Sebastian slightly curled his lips, and his eyes looked enigmatic. He said, "Well, what happened tonight was rather intriguing. Michael must have been confident that it was Eleanor to make such a fuss."
Vincent knew Michael’s meaning and looked at Sebastian, saying, "Mr. Moore, could it be that they couldn’t get a good look in the dark night? The maid indeed bears a resemblance to Mrs. Moore."
Sebastian glanced outside the window and didn’t have much expression on his face, leaving others unable to guess his thoughts.
After a long pause, he just said, "Let's go back and take a rest."
"Of course, Mr. Moore!" Vincent gently pushed him back to bed, as he had no clue about Sebastian's thoughts.
The night was as cool and serene!
Eleanor was tossing and turning. She stared quietly at the night outside her window. She was having so many emotions right now. How could she safely take away her son under Sebastian's watch?
While she was lost in thought, Eleanor drifted into a slumber. The next morning, she woke up and heard movements beside her.
"Waylon, you're up."
Waylon looked at her strikingly beautiful face, and when he saw Eleanor's affectionate and smiling eyes, he felt warm and happy. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
