Eliana only wanted to drink water?

Maurice chuckled lightly and breathed a sigh of relief. He was so frightened by her repeated escapes that he was being paranoid.

"Stay here. Let me do it. You are still in a daze. Don't let yourself fall again."

Maurice gently guided Eliana back to the bed. Then he stood up, poured her a glass of water, and handed it to her.

Eliana was still in a daze. When she was asleep, she was so parched that she woke up and looked for water. When she got the water from him, she immediately drank it without hesitation.

As a result, she took a big gulp and almost choked. Eliana coughed hard. Soon, she sobered up a bit.

"Slow down. That water is all yours. No one will take it from you," Maurice said, patting her on the shoulder. He was amused by her.

After Eliana began to breathe smoothly, she drank more water and lay back on the bed.

But as soon as her body touched the bed, she suddenly felt something strange. Something seemed wrong. She was in her room, right? How could there be someone else here?

Eliana suddenly opened her eyes, only to see Maurice's handsome face.

She was done for. What was Maurice doing in her room? Eliana instantly sprang up from the bed in shock and stared at the man in front of her.

Maurice raised his eyebrows. He thought she was not sober yet, so he asked gently, "Are you still thirsty? Do you want more water?"

Eliana was more confused. Was he not angry?

She stared blankly at the gentle Maurice. He was totally different from the usual, so she came to a conclusion.?Sure enough, I must be dreaming. No wonder he is so different. In reality, how can that bad man be so good to me??Eliana murmured to herself with an indignant expression on her face.

Maurice was standing in front of her, so he heard her clearly. It seemed that she was still drunk. As a cunning man, he didn't deny her assumptions.

Since Eliana had convinced herself that she was only dreaming, she let down her guard. She curiously stretched out her hand and touched the face of the man in front of her. It was warm and soft. It was as if it was real.

"Why does this dream feel so realistic?" She subconsciously wanted to pinch herself to see if it hurt. But before she could do anything, she was stopped by Maurice. He gently held her hand.

He chuckled and said, "Don't be silly. Be a good girl and sleep."

This was definitely a dream. After all, how could Maurice talk to her in such a doting tone? Eliana was even more certain that she was dreaming.

With this thought, Eliana abruptly sat up, put her hands on Maurice's shoulders, and pulled him closer.

Then she kissed his lips.

Maurice froze. He was obviously shocked. But he did not push her away.

Eliana felt happy in her heart. This hateful man always gave her a hard time in real life. Now that she was in her dream, she could finally do whatever she wanted.

Since Eliana really believed she was in her dream, her kiss was extremely bold. She even bit Maurice's lips lightly like a playful child.

As he was still close to her, the look in Maurice's eyes changed from surprise to amusement.

Then he gently held her face with both hands, pulled back slightly, and said teasingly, "Is this what you dare to do? You have the guts to do anything in your dream. But in reality, you only know how to escape."

Eliana's face was held by Maurice, and the gentle pressure instantly awakened her consciousness.

Oh no!

She was not dreaming at all. Maurice was really in front of her now.

At this moment, Eliana wished she could disappear. When she realized that everything was real, she immediately turned around, wanting to run away.

"What? You want to run away now?" Maurice chuckled. His eyes were filled with affection. "Unfortunately, it's too late."

Maurice gently pulled her back into his embrace.

He kissed Eliana deeply. Then his hands gently held her close.

A series of tender kisses fell on her face and neck.

Eliana's resistance was ineffective, so she could only relax in his arms.

The two held each other close, sharing a warm embrace.
