“Wait! Mr. Moran, please wait a moment!” Kelvin hurried out of the ward, chasing Maurice and Earle
before they could go too far.
“Is there something else I can help you with, Mr. Stone?” Maurice asked, a hint of impatience in his
tone.
“Are you just going to breeze past that?” Kelvin asked, annoyed.
Maurice gave him a cold stare. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, Mr. Stone.”
“Do you think I don’t know? That Eliana girl was the one who sent Harriet those flowers. She probably
tried to kill her because of her obsession with you! Do you think you can just brush it off like that without
taking any responsibility?”
“What exactly do you want me to take responsibility for?” Maurice’s eyes flashed dangerously as he
glared at Kelvin. He was furious.
Kelvin didn’t sense the danger at all, however, and continued his rant. “Of course, you should hand that
woman to us!”
“Can you really prove that Eliana was the one who tried to hurt Harriet?”
“Who else could it be if not her?” Kelvin asked with a look of disdain.
“You can’t just go around accusing people. You need evidence for that,” Maurice remarked.
He then stretched out his hand and said, “Corbin?”
Corbin quickly took out his phone and handed it to Maurice. The evidence that he had collected was on
it.
“From what I know, Eliana wasn’t the only one who had touched the flowers. She might not even know
that Miss Stone is allergic to Chinese roses.”
“What are you trying to say, Mr. Moran?” Kelvin was flustered. He hadn’t expected Maurice to come at
him with facts like that.
“I’ll make a proper investigation. Just give me some time,” Maurice said.
“No! I demand you take responsibility today!” Kelvin had no intention of backing off. “I’m not going to let
Harriet face such injustice! She might not have a father to protect her, but her mother is on the way
here! You can’t leave without dealing with this matter properly.”
Seeing that Maurice and Kelvin were about to go head-to-head, Earle tried to mediate. “Alright, since
you want him to take responsibility, let’s do this; I’ll announce Harriet and Maurice’s engagement so
that you can rest easy.”
Kelvin’s eyes lit up at that.
Maurice shook his head immediately. “Absolutely not!”
Earle had expected Maurice to react like that, so he glared at him. “What do you want to do then?
Would you rather hand them the woman you love?”
“Why would I do that? I’m the one who did it,” Maurice declared, shocking everyone.
“I asked Corbin to add that Chinese rose to the bouquet because I wanted to avoid the engagement.
My plan was for another employee in the Design Department to send the flowers to cover my tracks,
but unfortunately, she asked Eliana to do it.” Maurice gave them a detailed plan.
Corbin was stunned to hear his name. What in the world was his boss talking about? When did he ever
do such a thing?
He turned to Maurice in confusion and shock, but then he realized what his boss was trying to do. Of
course, what Maurice said was a lie. He was taking the blame so that he could protect Eliana. Corbin
kept his mouth shut and played along.
“You bastard! How could you do such a thing?! You…” Earle was so angry with Maurice that it was hard
for him to breathe evenly.
Aleck, who was standing next to him, worriedly took out Earle’s pills from his pocket and gave them to
him.
When Earle finally calmed down and thought about it again, it didn’t make sense to him.
“Wait, seriously, did you really do that?”
Maurice didn’t answer him.
Earle realized that Maurice couldn’t do such a foolish thing. Even though he didn’t want to marry
Harriet, he had many other options to prevent the engagement. Why would he try to kill Harriet? It was
clear that he was just trying to protect Eliana.
Maurice’s determination to protect Eliana reminded Earle of someone else who had died a long time
ago. His son, Blair Moran. He was lost in thought. It was crazy how similar Maurice was to his father.
The two were willing to do anything for love, even if it went against what the Moran family wanted.
“I’m not going to let you do that! You can’t…” Earle started to say, but then stopped suddenly.
As he was lost in his thought, he had begun to mix up the two, and wasn’t sure if he was talking to
Maurice or Blair anymore.
Maurice knew that even if the others believed what he said, his grandfather who had watched him grow
up certainly wouldn’t. Still, he wasn’t going to back down. “Grandpa, you’ve already lost my dad. Do
you want to lose me too?”
Earle trembled at his words, unable to say anything in response. It seemed that Maurice was
threatening to really do something if he kept forcing him.
If Earle didn’t support them, the Stone family’s plan would fail. Kelvin was in a rage when he realized
that Earle was backing down.
Since the Moran family wasn’t pushing the marriage anymore, they couldn’t keep forcing Maurice. They
had to find a way to milk the Moran family when Harriet was still ill.
