As soon as Eliana stepped out of the car, Corbin flashed an embarrassed look at his disgruntled boss.
“What should we do now, boss?”
Maurice fixed his eyes on Eliana’s back and said in a low voice, “Drive slowly and follow her.”
Corbin immediately obeyed Maurice’s command and tailed the beautiful woman. The sight of a luxury
car moving along the road at a slow speed drew the attention of passers-by.
Now that her suspicions had finally been confirmed, Eliana’s mind became so preoccupied with
troubling thoughts that she remained oblivious of the vehicle trailing behind her.
When Eliana raised her head, she had already arrived at the entrance of the towering Moran Group
building.
Taking a deep breath, she stepped forward and walked in with a determined face. Since Eliana had
decided to return to the Moran Group, she vowed to stop at nothing to finally reach her dream.
At this time, Harriet and several other female employees from the Design Department were chatting by
the entrance gate.
Once Harriet saw Eliana’s approaching figure, she stepped forward to greet her but stopped in her
tracks upon seeing the familiar luxury car pulling over.
“Wait a second! Isn’t that Eliana? What’s she doing here?” a female employee exclaimed as she
pointed at Eliana in disbelief.
Another colleague squinted her eyes and became shocked. “Look at the car behind her. Isn’t that Mr.
Moran’s private service?”
“I can’t believe it. Eliana caused so much trouble last time, yet here she is again. That sly woman must
have used her influence on Mr. Moran to secure a position in the company.”
The controversial remark came from the envious Lilian Gentry, Eliana’s former colleague.
“That’s enough.” Harriet glared at Lilian coldly. “Don’t spread nasty rumors, everyone. Miss Pierce is a
very talented jewelry designer. I think Mr. Moran just cherished her unrivaled skills and requested her to
come back. Don’t talk nonsense anymore. I won’t tolerate this kind of behavior.”
Since the department director had given the order, her subordinates nodded and immediately stopped
talking.
Only Lilian pursed her lips. She didn’t expect that the new director was such a pushover.
On the surface, Harriet seemed to be calm and professional. But in reality, her heart was full of
jealousy. Her long sleeves kept her tightly clenched fists out of sight from everyone else.
Eliana had no idea that the moment she arrived, she had already caused a stir.
Upon entering the Moran Group building, she hesitated to walk inside the Design Department. Beads of
sweat slowly formed on her forehead as her heart began to race.
When she returned to the familiar workplace after a brief hiatus, a mix of nostalgia and memories of
past events flooded her mind.
Eliana remembered the former director named Gabrielle, who had made her life a living hell since
joining the Design Department. The only bright spot at work was an unexpected reunion with her senior
fellow student. But soon after, everything went downhill from there. Rachel framed her; Nicole slapped
her; and Evelynn bullied her endlessly.
It seemed that she was destined to always suffer at the hands of her troublesome colleagues at the
Moran Group. Moreover, Maurice was involved in every incident, subjecting the pair to controversy and
gossip.
“Miss Pierce, what a pleasant surprise! Please come in.” Harriet rushed over with a warm smile. “May I
have everyone’s attention, please? On behalf of all the employees in the Design Department, I
welcome you back to the Moran Group. It’s a pleasure to have you on board with us again.”
After seeing the director greet Eliana with enthusiasm, the rest of the Design Department followed suit.
Whether they were actually sincere or not, they showed their best smiles and warmly received her.
“It sounds too formal if I always address you as Miss Pierce. Do you mind me calling you Eliana from
now on?”
“Not at all, Miss Stone. Please call me Eliana.” In the face of such a personable and friendly Harriet, it
was quite difficult for Eliana to refuse her.
Judging from her first impression, it seemed that the pleasant Harriet was a stark contrast to the mean
Gabrielle. Maybe the bad things of the past would not happen again.
Eliana felt so lucky that she finally met a professional and good-natured director. Nothing could possibly
go wrong under her leadership.
But unbeknownst to Eliana, it was all an act. Harriet continued to keep her image as a friendly director.
On Eliana’s first day back at work, Harriet arranged a project for her.
“Eliana, check this out. I happen to have a project at hand that could use your talent and abilities. I
think it’s very suitable for you.”
The smiling director handed over the ‘good project’ she had carefully picked for Eliana.
Hearing these words, Eliana was stunned. Why did Harriet assign her a project so soon?
“Okay, Miss Stone. I’ll work on it right away.”
She eagerly took the document from Harriet and opened the folder immediately. As soon as she read
the papers, her eyes widened in shock, and her mouth dropped open.
Eliana was tasked to design a bracelet for Cheryl, the hottest and arguably the most popular female
star of modern times.
The situation was highly troubling. Cheryl was Nicole’s sworn enemy, and the design of the pink
diamond necklace was also leaked to her by Rachel.
Now Eliana had to work on this project for Cheryl, which made her feel uncomfortable.
“I hope you’re excited as I am, Eliana. I specifically chose this project for you. Do you think you can
handle it?”
Harriet played innocent, but deep inside, she was overjoyed and wanted to laugh at Eliana’s face.
This was the “special gift” she had prepared for Eliana.
Harriet wanted Eliana to pay the ultimate price for competing against her for a man’s heart.
