After a moment of silence, Eliana got up, distancing herself from Maurice.
Then she quietly picked up the ring and put it into her pocket.
Maurice didn’t stop her. Instead, he stood up calmly and said to Harriet in his usual tone, “Didn’t you
say that I need to see the executives off? Let’s go.”
Then he left with Harriet as if nothing had happened. He didn’t even look back once.
Staring at his receding figure, Eliana seethed.
She was speechless with anger. This man was so capricious!
On the one hand, he was a business elite who excelled at work. On the other hand, he was a
domineering and childish man who made fun of her in private.
What was wrong with him?
During the confrontation, Leif and the other employees remained outside the sample center.
After Maurice and Harriet left, the employees came back inside one after another.
Leif was the first one to rush in and he immediately noticed Eliana’s sullen expression.
“Eliana, are you okay?”
It was not until he spoke that she extricated herself from her emotions.
“I’m fine.”
Looking at her distant expression, Leif had a bold thought.
It seemed as though there was something going on between Mr. Moran and Eliana!
“Eliana, I have life experience, so I hope you will listen to me. Don’t get too close to privileged people
like Mr. Moran, or you will be hurt in the end,” he advised her.
“Leif…”
Eliana’s face turned red. She felt the urge to explain.
Leif waved his hand and said, “Listen to me, even though my words might be unpleasant for you to
hear. I’ll use your ring as an example.”
Leif pointed at the ring on Eliana’s hand.
“Although it’s of stunning design, the materials used cannot be compared to the materials the company
uses to make jewelry. The ring is just like a person. For whatever reason, some people are not
comparable, and their paths are not meant to cross in this life.”
After letting his words sink in, Eliana felt enlightened.
Indeed, she and Maurice were incredibly different.
Why should she ask for trouble?
Swallowing the sadness in her heart, Eliana said sincerely, “Thank you, Leif. Whether for the ring or
your words, I want to say thank you.”
Leif nodded with relief. “Well, it’s good that you understand what I’m saying.”
With a serious look on her face, Eliana continued, “I will take responsibility for using the company’s
resources. I won’t let Mr. Moran blame you.”
“Silly girl, you don’t need to do that,” Leif said with a sigh.
“I asked you to help me with this. Of course I should take responsibility for it. Don’t try to dissuade me,
Leif.”
With her mind made up, Eliana resolutely left the sample center.
After Maurice and Harriet left Eliana, they went downstairs to see off the senior executives.
As the executives prepared to leave, Harriet’s uncle patted Maurice on the shoulder and said
cheerfully, “Maurice, wish us pleasant cooperation this time.”
“Yes, let’s hope for pleasant cooperation.”
Despite making such a big deal, Maurice remained expressionless, as if nothing could affect his mood.
Of course, Eliana was an exception to that rule.
“What’s more, the elders of both families hope to see you make progress with Harriet as soon as
possible!”
Harriet’s uncle winked at Harriet, and she shyly lowered her head.
Instead of responding, Maurice changed the topic. “Mr. Stone, don’t worry. I will do my best to be a
host. I have already arranged for a dinner party at Moon Lake Manor, and we will treat the Stone family
elders well.”
As an intelligent woman, Harriet immediately realized that Maurice was avoiding the topic of their
marriage, which made her deeply uncomfortable.
Eliana.
It was all because of that woman.
A hint of viciousness flashed in Harriet’s eyes, but no one noticed it.
She believed that once Eliana was gone, Maurice would belong to her.
