Robbing Others
“I'll go.”
Eliana felt aggrieved, but she knew that she had to compromise. It was because she still had not found
out the secret behind the Pierce Group’s bankruptcy, and she needed money to raise her kids. She
could not afford to lose her job now. She took the sheet and read it with a frown.
A suit, a shirt, a tie, cufflinks… Everything was to be purchased from a different store, and each store
was in a different district.
“Mr. Jenkins, these… When will Mr. Moran be needing them?” she asked through gritted teeth.
“Six o’clock,” Corbin replied with a smile. Eliana looked up at the clock and saw that it was already half
past three in the afternoon. If she stayed there for even a minute longer, she would not be able to come
back before six o’clock.
Pushing Corbin out of the way, she grabbed her bag, and rushed out. At half past five, she still had one
more item left to get. Holding a pile of bags, she ran into the luxury women’s clothing store, and
showed the receipt to the shop assistant. After checking the receipt, the woman looked at her in
surprise.
“Is there a problem?” Eliana tried to catch a breath while holding the counter.
The woman replied in a respectful tone, “Mr. Moran said that you need to try on the dress.”
“I should try it on?” Eliana asked in confusion.
“Why?” – She figured that Maurice must have ordered the dress for his date for the party. But that didn’t
have anything to do with her. The shop assistant seemed to be in a dilemma.
“We don’t know the details. But you can’t take it with you unless you try it on first…” Eliana was
speechless, looking at the clock ticking away in front of her. She thought that perhaps, Maurice’s date
was the same size as her.
A moment later, the shop assistant led Eliana to the fitting room. After a few minutes, Eliana pushed
open the door and looked at herself in the mirror. It was a pure white off shoulder dress with
embroidered corners. The gold thread on the edges of the dress made it look all the more delicate and
elegant. Her curves were tightly wrapped in that dress, enhancing her beauty. She casually coiled her
long hair, revealing her smooth neck.
Eliana was stunningly gorgeous with full red lips and bright eyes. Her pretty face and perfect figure
instantly caught everyone’s eye. And Asher was one of them. He never thought that he would meet
Eliana again in a place like that. Looking at her, he felt that she was growing more beautiful each day,
and could not take his eyes off her. All of a sudden, he felt a sharp sting in his arm. Erica screamed in
jealousy, “Honey! What are you looking at?”
Asher coughed, hiding his amazement. He then said in a serious tone, “That dress seems a lot like it
was designed by Aurora. Don’t you like that style?”
“You know me well, honey!” Covering her mouth, Erica smiled. Holding Asher’s arm, she approached
Eliana.
“Let’s buy this one.”
Upon hearing the disgusting familiar voice, Eliana turned around with a frown. She cursed her luck for
stumbling upon them. At the same time, Erica glared at Eliana fiercely.
