“Ahem…”
Maurice and Nancy’s talk was interrupted when Earle unexpectedly came and coughed.
He asked Harriet, the woman he wanted Maurice to marry, to visit them today. Maurice and Nancy
continued to discuss Eliana, despite this.
“Harriet, I’m very happy to see you. Great. I haven’t seen you in a while. The Stone family seems to
have raised you to be a well-cultivated individual.”
With each glance at Harriet, Earle felt more pleased.
Harriet carried herself with dignity and elegance, and she acted appropriately throughout. The Stone
family had grown rapidly in recent years, and it was now a formidable force in every area.
It was safe to say Harriet deserved Maurice the most. Eliana was nothing like her.
Earle couldn’t stop himself from uttering, “You, Harriet, are the only one who can really claim to be a
well-bred lady from a well-known family. Your demeanor is unlike that of Eliana, the conceited female in
Maurice’s company. She lacks decorum, is nasty, and conceals a nefarious agenda…”
“Mr. Moran, do not make such a remark about Miss Pierce.” Even though Harriet was overjoyed to hear
this, she feigned to be remorseful still. “The Pierce family was a wealthy family for a while, but the
bankruptcy of the Pierce Group took its toll on Miss Pierce’s parents, who died in an untimely manner.
According to reports, Mr. Gerald Moran was in control of the acquisition of their group. Surely, Miss
Pierce would be devastated by this news.”
Sneering at this, Earle shrugged his shoulders. “When it comes to business, you may think of it as a
battlefield. It’s impossible to condemn people for being merciless if one’s own skills aren’t up to par with
those of others.”
When Maurice first heard these remarks, he didn’t think anything of them, but now he was irritated.
“That’s enough, Grandpa,” he said, frowning.
“What? I’m not allowed to say anything about her?”
Earle gave Maurice a peek. Earle’s disdain for Eliana grew as Maurice acted in this manner.
“Maurice, you’ve come a long way. You don’t look anything like the Moran Group’s heir apparently. You
should use more caution going forward now that you’ve found the ring. Never lose sight of the fact that
someone is keeping tabs on your every move,” Earle snapped and then narrowed his eyes.
To escape Earle’s gaze, Maurice did all he could. Earle’s statements were obviously not taken seriously
by him.
There was a gloomy vibe in the air.
“That’s all fine,” Nancy abruptly exclaimed. “You are both adults, yet you are obstinate. I’m baffled as to
why you’re such compelling human beings. There is a visitor present. Come inside and have a meal.
My plan for today is to cook for you. You’ll be able to sample some of the delectable food I prepare.”
Nancy’s remarks were always taken seriously by the Moran family. The two men had to temporarily put
their differences aside and walk inside the house together.
Harriet offered to help Nancy arrange the table and eagerly followed her into the kitchen to prove she
wasn’t a couch potato. There were just Maurice and Earle remaining in the living room.
Silas returned at that exact moment.
After he entered the house, he was immediately struck by the strange ambiance. On one side of the
couch, Earle had his eyes shut, and Maurice, who was seated on the other side, had a sullen
expression.
Silas recognized what had occurred when he saw them.
With his backpack on his back, he approached Earle and said, “Great-grandpa, have you found him
another formidable woman?”
Silas squinted at Maurice. When this happened before, it was usually because his great-grandfather
had arranged for a girlfriend for Maurice, but Maurice didn’t like the female that Earle had selected for
him. Silas had become used to such occurrences due to the frequency with which they had occurred.
“Silas, you’re still a kid, so don’t worry about it. Your lack of comprehension is obvious.” Earle tried to
dismiss his words.
‘Hmm,’ thought Silas, shaking his head. “Really? Your terrible taste, I believe, is to blame.”
Earle was stricken mute after hearing Silas’s comments.
These statements delighted Maurice, who responded with a broad grin. The living room regained its
tranquil feel.
Maurice had a sudden spark of inspiration.
He rose up with a glitter in his eyes and whispered to Silas, “We are planning to eat, Silas. I’ll take you
upstairs and put your backpack there.”
Silas could only think of one thing as he frowned.
Something wasn’t right with Maurice!
