Eliana went back to the company, exhausted, after dealing with Cheryl.
When she arrived at the company’s gate, she happened to meet Maurice.
He was standing in front of his silver Maybach, as if waiting for someone.
Since Maurice was here, she might as well tell him about Ethan’s invitation. She could seek Maurice’s
opinion regarding the matter.
Eliana gathered her courage and approached Maurice, greeting him, “Mr. Moran, you…”
“Mr. Moran, I’m sorry for being late. Let’s hurry up so your grandmother and others don’t have to wait
too long.”
Harriet rushed out of the company building and went straight to Maurice.
Apparently, Maurice was waiting for Harriet.
Eliana immediately stopped in her tracks. She lost the courage to take another step forward.
“Eliana, come here.”
Maurice ignored Harriet, who was already beside him. It was as if Eliana was all he could see.
“Oh, Eliana! Are you done with your meeting with your client? I’m sorry for not noticing you earlier.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m just going to the Moran family today on behalf of the Stone family to see his
grandparents.”
Harriet’s words were meant to distance herself from Maurice, but they also revealed the Stone family’s
unusually close relationship with the Moran family.
Eliana realized something when she saw Harriet and Maurice standing next to each other.
Harriet and Maurice were a perfect match. They were of equal social rank, like childhood sweethearts.
Eliana had once been the daughter of a wealthy and powerful family. She knew better than anyone else
that a marriage between equally powerful and closely-knit families was common.
It was Evelynn before, but now it was Harriet on the list.
There was a bitter taste in Eliana’s mouth. The courage she had just mustered was gone easily. All she
wanted to do was to leave.
“I see. Miss Stone, you and Mr. Moran can go now. I have something to deal with in the company, so
I’m leaving now.”
Eliana then turned around and hurriedly left in an awkward manner.
“Eliana, why are you leaving?”
Maurice was eager to catch up with her.
However, his phone rang abruptly. He picked it up and found that it was a call from his grandfather.
Without answering the call, Maurice knew Earle would just urge him to go back home.
His grandfather ordered Maurice to bring Harriet there today, or else he should not go home.
Maurice remained silent and immobile.
“Mr. Moran, what’s wrong? Your grandfather is waiting for us. Let’s go.”
Maurice felt annoyed as he looked at Harriet’s face.
But he didn’t want to defy his grandfather’s orders. He had to bring this woman there.
Maurice took a last look at the gate and got into the car with a gloomy face.
Harriet was secretly relieved. For a brief moment, she was terrified that Maurice would really follow
Eliana. But he didn’t abandon her in the end, implying that Eliana was not as important to him as his
family.
It seemed that his feelings toward Eliana were not that deep. Harriet laughed inwardly at the
realization.
Meanwhile, Eliana went back to her desk.
The working hours had just ended. Lilian and her other colleagues in the Design Department were
about to leave.
Seeing that Eliana ran back with a pale face, Lilian felt very satisfied.
Eliana must have been bullied by Cheryl. She deserved it.
“Eliana, it’s time to get off work. Why didn’t you go home directly and instead come back here?” Lilian
asked purposefully.
“I just have a lot of work to do and need to work extra hours,” Eliana responded.
Since she was so stubborn, she had to face the consequences.
Lilian snorted and rolled her eyes. It was obvious that she was up to no good.
Another female colleague opened her mouth to say something, but Lilian shook her head, stopping the
woman.
“Then we’re leaving now,” Lilian said, turning around. “Good luck with working overtime.”
Unfortunately, Eliana didn’t raise her head, so she missed Lilian’s strange smile.
