Tangled Temptations

Chapter 22

Eloise was taken aback, completely surprised.

Orlena? Could she be in this hospital too?

Eloise slightly lifted her eyelids, and under the moonlight, she saw a couple engrossed in a passionate kiss.

Max was holding his fiancée tightly, cradling her face as if she were a precious gem. He was usually hot-tempered, but with Orlena, he was as gentle as a lamb. "This is the last time for tonight. You should go to sleep."

Orlena, with her arms around his neck and an innocent look in her eyes, teased him, "Max, we're engaged already. When will you sleep with me?"

Max wanted to brush off her request, but his gaze found Eloise in the corner. Eloise was standing in the hallway; she must have been watching for a while.

Max instantly pulled Orlena closer, not wanting her to notice Eloise. However, his gaze was fixed on Eloise. It was unexpected for Eloise to be saved. He had been ready to sacrifice her, but her luck was too good. She made it back safely.
