Chapter 34 Eliza, I Want You…
Eliza felt a little aggrieved in her heart. She did not know about Tanner’s feelings for her. She only
thought that he treated her like a toy to be yed with!
She had been suppressing her thoughts for a long time, and she tried her best to not do anything that
would make him angry.
The gentleness and romance in Ball Ind made her rx. She thought that since he brought her here,
he would be a little different from before. However, she was wrong. Tanner was still Tanner. He could
even marry her for her to be her sister’s substitute. How could he even consider her thoughts?
Tanner’s heart was burning with anger, the car started to go faster. She was actually smiling when she
received the invitation from a stranger! He had prepared this honeymoon trip for her, but what had she
thought of him!
……
The car sped away as fast as lightning. The two of them were lost in their own thoughts.
When they were back in their residence, Eliza got out of the car first, while Tanner went to the garage.
When he returned to the room, he wanted to talk it through with her, but he could not find her
anywhere.
She dared to run away from him after doing something wrong? Eliza, how dare you!
They had only been separated for a short while, so she must not have gone far. Tanner immediately
informed thendlord and asked him to file a report at the police station in his name to look at the
security footage. After that, Tanner drove by himself and looked along the streets.
The surveince video took time, and Tanner could not find her outside either. The sky gradually
darkened, and he started to panic.
If Eliza did not bring anything with her, where could she go? Had he been too fierce to her? However,
how was he supposed to endure it at that time?
After driving through almost all the nearby streets, Tanner still could not find her. Moreover, the sky had
darkened, and it was even more difficult to find her.
She did not bring her phone with her. He saw it in the study room. So, GPS was not an option.
There was still nothing on the surveince video.
Neither of them was familiar with the environment there. Apart from looking for her along the roads, he
did not know where to find her.
After searching for a whole night, Tanner still could not find Eliza…
The man was extremely depressed. The anger he felt from the previous afternoon had been worn away
during the search. Now, he only wanted to find her as soon as possible. Otherwise, if she had an
ident, he would never forgive himself!

Tanner gave up looking on the streets, so he started to walk the paths cars could not go through.
The sky was already starting to brighten up. As the sun rose, he arrived at the beach, and then he saw
a small figure sitting on the beach.
In truth, he had gone back and forth on that beachst night. However, it was too dark at that time. He
could only see the lighthouse from a distance. He could not see Eliza, who was hidden in the darkness.
He continued to look at her from behind. After some time, the sun slowly rose from the horizon… The
scene was beautiful.
When Eliza left the room, she left in a hurry, and she did not know where she could go. At that time,
she did not bring anything, and she could only walk blindly on the road.
She did not know where she went, nor did she know how long it had been. When the skypletely
darkened, she came to the beach to look at the distant lighthouse.
After that, she only sat there quietly. With not a single thought in mind, she waited for dawn quietly.
Tanner slowly walked up to her and pulled her up from the ground.
Neither of them slept for the whole night, and their eyes were bloodshot.
Eliza looked at him in a daze. In truth, she only wanted toe out for a walk. She did not expect a
whole night to pass just like that. What’s more, she did not expect Tanner to show up here looking
The two of them looked at each other for a while, then Tanner suddenly pulled her into his embrace.
Her body was really cold, but his arms were warm.
Suddenly, Eliza felt a lump in her throat. She wanted to cry.
"Why are you here?" She asked.
"I was looking for you," Tanner said, his voice filled with fatigue.
"Will youe back with me?" He asked her.
Two clear streams of tears flowed down her eyes all of a sudden. This was the first time she cried.
She had always been depressed around him, and her heart was heavy too. After such a long time in
Ball Ind, she finally broke down.
Tanner just hugged her as he listened to her sobs. His throat tightened, and he could not speak at all.
After some time, Eliza eventually calmed down. He was scared that she would catch a cold, so he
brought her back for a hot bath.
……
The experience that day was like a dream to Tanner. He had never thought of what it would feel like to
lose Eliza. The fact that he found her after losing her made him realize that he had to cherish her.
For the next few days, Tanner learned to stop showing her his indifferent expression. He stopped being
tough on her or even use sarcasticments on her.
As for Eliza, she noticed Tanner’s little change. Surprisingly, he had turned quite… gentle. It turned out
that Tanner could be like that too. He could smile at her and take care of her daily chores. He could
even ask local chefs for advice on cooking…
Just like that, time passed slowly. Eliza had a new understanding of him every day. She seemed to be
attracted to him… No, she was fascinated by him. The beach, the ocean, and… him. Everything there
was beautiful.
Tanner had always been an excellent man, but he had been ustomed to being indifferent to others
for too many years. He was used to being in control of everything in his surroundings. That was why
Eliza dared not get close to him.
Their rtionship gradually improved. They were no longer at loggerheads. Instead, they began to act
like a real couple.
During the day, he would bring her out to visit the different sceneries on Ball Ind. They would y
different games and participate in the local customs too. At night, after they returned, he would cook for
her. He would even patiently shoo away the bugs for her…
All of these were experiences that he had never experienced before. When he was there, he was not
the superior young master of the Deleon family, and she was not the illegitimate child of the Stone
family.
……
After so many days of hard work, Eliza finally opened up to Tanner. She began to ept him and no
longer resisted his contact. Sometimes, she even responded to him.
Eliza found herself being drawn to him.
Every day, his voice was the first thing she would hear when he woke her up in the morning, and also
thest thing she would hear when he kissed her good night. She started to be infatuated by his warm
embrace and even started to enjoy every moment they had.
One night, just as Eliza was about to rest, Tanner walked in from the outside.
"What''s wrong?" They had been sleeping separately these days. Seeing hime in, Eliza thought he
just wanted to take something.
"Eliza." Tanner stared at her as he walked towards her.
Eliza seemed to have an inkling of his thoughts...
He did not say anything. He only stretched out his long arms, then he held her tightly in his arms. He
kissed her forehead, lips, and neck. His gentle kiss gradually turned hot…
His big hands wandered around her body, tugging at her heartstrings.
Somehow, Eliza was brought to the bed by him. Their breaths intertwined rapidly.
"Eliza, I want you." He asked her for permission in a hoarse voice.
Oh well… She thought that she should indulge herself, just this once…
Eliza closed her eyes and kissed his lips.
