Chapter 136 No Intention to Deceive Him

Sienna: Got it. I heard about what happened last night. Are you alright?

Sienna: That scoundrel Michael was malicious and sent so many lilies over. He clearly wanted to kill you! Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Eleanor scoffed. Michael was truly heartless.

He would do anything to achieve his goals.

Valentina was just another pawn in his game.

If Valentina didn't have a rich family background, she would be dumped by him too.

Eleanor: Sisi, I'm much better now. I'll be discharged tomorrow. Now that they're suspicious of my identity, they won't stop testing me. I'll work on finding a medication to alleviate my allergy symptoms as soon as possible.

Sienna: Have a good rest and don't worry. I'll handle the rest of it.

Eleanor: Okay!

After putting away her phone, Eleanor sat on the bed, bathed in the sunset's glow from the window. She was tall, slender, and pretty. Despite appearing slightly frail at this moment, she seemed to have strong inner strength.

She watched the sunset, which dyed half the sky red.

When Sebastian looked up at her, he was captivated by this breathtaking view.

Eleanor was stunningly beautiful, and a glance was enough to captivate others' hearts.

Sebastian couldn't help but ask, "Are you hungry?"

Eleanor was startled by his sudden question. She paused for a moment and remembered that Sebastian was there with her.

Whenever she thought of what happened six years ago, she would be plunged into sorrow and forget other things.

She turned around and nodded slightly.

"Yes, I'm hungry."

Upon hearing Sebastian's words, Eleanor rose to freshen up and returned a few minutes later.

Her allergic reaction was severe, and while there were few on her face, her body was covered in rashes.

Her pale face contrasted with her red lips, which made her look dangerously captivating.

Sebastian watched her and narrowed his eyes slightly. He was filled with admiration for her stunning beauty.

He then remembered the recording he had listened to earlier and wondered about the formula talked about at last.

He also recalled her mentioning disfigurement.

Driven by curiosity, he asked, "By the way, how did your face recover so well after being disfigured?" Eleanor admitted that she was Eleanor from the Ryker family.

So their discussion about this matter was straightforward.

Hearing his question, Eleanor's body trembled slightly, her pupils dilated.

It was as if time had rewound to six years ago, and the pain of flesh being cut open was so intense that it felt soul-shattering.

Her thoughts blurred, her blood seemingly flowing backward. The pain was comparable to being scorched in boiling oil, causing her entire body to spasm.

Seeing her slightly shaking, Sebastian apologized, "I'm sorry, my curiosity got the better of me. I didn't intend to remind you of your past pain."

Eleanor's fingers clenched as she offered him a light smile and tried to sound casual, "It's okay. It's been many years. Although the memory still hurts, I've learned to live with that pain."

Since he asked about her past so openly, she could face it bravely.

"This face of mine was severely damaged, the wounds deep enough to expose bones. It took numerous surgeries and the application of high-grade ointments for it to heal as well as it has."

In the first two years, she never dared to look in the mirror and always went out wearing sunglasses and a mask to hide the scary scars on her skin.

Sebastian pressed his lips as he watched her speak so casually, but the pain in her eyes revealed her true emotions. It wasn't that she didn't care, but rather, she cared too much, which made it even more painful.

Sebastian had another question.

"Why did you acknowledge that you're Eleanor to me but deny it in front of Caroline?"

Eleanor smiled and joked, "Because you're my husband."

Her gentle tone took Sebastian's breath away for a moment.

He quietly gazed at Eleanor's smiling face and didn't miss her playful expression.

Suddenly, the room fell silent.

The atmosphere in the room grew increasingly intimate and intense.

"Knock, knock," the knocking sound suddenly shattered the tense silence.

"Come in," Sebastian said in a deep voice.

Easton had returned and brought in their dinner.

"Mr. Moore, Mrs. Moore, dinner is ready," Easton walked in with takeout boxes in hand, but he quickly sensed the odd tension in the air.

His smile froze as he thought to himself, "Is this a bad time for my arrival?"

He quickly placed the takeout boxes on the table, opened them, and swiftly walked out.

Once outside, he didn't have to hold his breath.

Whenever this couple was together, there was always an intimate and intense atmosphere in the room.

It was awful!

He had had this jarring feeling many times before.

Easton left quickly and decided it was best to keep his distance when the couple was alone.

So he could avoid getting caught in the crossfire.

Sebastian called out to Eleanor, who was standing not far away, "Come and have dinner."

"Alright!" Eleanor responded with a smile as she sat across from him.

Eleanor admitted her true identity because she didn't want to deceive Sebastian any longer.

He disliked dishonesty and had long suspected her true identity. Hiding it was too exhausting.

Sebastian was different from Michael.

He lived by the principle of an eye for an eye.

He wouldn't have targeted the Logan family unless they had provoked him.

As for Michael, he pursued profit at any cost.

During her marriage to Sebastian, Eleanor had leveraged situations to her advantage instead of truly exploiting him.

"I'm sorry for hiding my identity and marrying you. Our match was actually arranged by Mr. Grayson, whom I've never met. When Old Master Moore was looking for a woman suitable for you, the personal information I provided was real. I hesitated because I knew this was a path of no return."

"But my heart was filled with hatred for Michael. He went to great lengths to obtain the formula of Fragrant Pill from me and made me believe he could be a light in my life. But I was wrong; he was the one who ruined my life."

"They humiliated and imprisoned me. When I didn't hand over the formula, they took me to the outskirts of the town and disfigured me. They obtained the formula of Fragrant Pill by threatening me. Even after I handed it over, they didn't plan to let me go. Caroline and Michael wanted to burn

me alive. I managed to escape and was saved by Nathan. That's what happened back then. I'm telling you because you were curious." Eleanor told him the truth but left out the part about her children, with a bitter smile on her face.

Sebastian stared at her with a complex look and asked with a heavy voice, "Why do you tell me all this?"
