“Eliana, Eliana.” One of Eliana’s female coworkers nudged her.
“Ah!”
Eliana came back to her senses. This wasn’t the first time she had been absent-minded since she saw
Wyatt walking the red carpet on TV.
“Where has your head been lately?” her coworker asked. “The Product Department just asked you to
take the pink diamond necklace. It’s been completed.”
“Okay, I’m on it.”
Eliana sighed. Finishing that necklace had been a struggle. She didn’t know who was going to receive
it in the end.
Eliana stood and hurried to the Product Department. Then she saw two unexpected figures: Maurice
and Corbin.
It was just her bad luck to meet her enemy. She had to hide before he saw her.
This turned out to be unnecessary. Maurice didn’t even look at her.
Eliana breathed a sigh of relief, but a heavy feeling remained in her chest.
What was wrong with Maurice?
His constantly changing mood was a mystery to her.
Maurice had his own plans.
He walked slowly on purpose. As soon as he saw Maurice, Corbin reported, “Mr. Moran, Asher
Harrison is here. He said he came to negotiate a project.”
Asher!
Eliana’s eyes lit up when she heard this name. She was close to both of these men.
Eliana’s interest did not go unnoticed by Maurice. Knowing that she was listening, he said, “That’s
good. I want to ask him a few questions about the Pierce Group.”
The Pierce Group!
This was another phrase that Eliana had been waiting to hear.
Eliana focused on their conservation and strained her ears to hear more, but Maurice’s and Corbin’s
voices were getting quieter. She turned around and found that they had moved quite a way away.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so she couldn’t let it slip through her fingers.
Eliana followed the two upstairs without hesitation. When Maurice stepped into his office, she grabbed
Corbin by the arm and pulled him to the door of the pantry.
“Mr. Jenkins, does Mr. Moran want coffee when he is talking business?” Eliana asked and put on her
most flattering smile.
Corbin smiled to himself. ‘She has been trapped at last,’ he thought. ‘The trick I played with Mr. Moran
just now was not in vain.’
When Maurice found out about Eliana’s background, he had asked Corbin to investigate what had
happened to the Pierce Group. Maurice had invited Asher today because Maurice knew that Asher was
likely to know the truth of what had happened that year.
Corbin raised his eyebrows in mock surprise and said, “Yes, he wants it, but you don’t want to serve
him drinks, do you?”
“The boot is on the other foot now,” Eliana said in a honeyed tone. “I still owe Mr. Moran money, right? I
was paid fifty thousand for a cup of coffee before. This time it will be the same, right?”
She was really good at calculating!
Corbin was tempted to applaud Eliana’s intelligence. She got the news and made money all at once,
effectively killing two birds with one stone.
“Okay, you can bring the coffee in after you finish making it.”
“Okay!”
Eliana rushed into the pantry and made a cup of coffee in record time. She then headed to the CEO’s
office and knocked on his door.
“Come in.”
Eliana opened the door and saw that Asher and Maurice were sitting together on the sofa.
Asher stood up in surprise.
“Eliana, why are you here?”
Eliana sneered and remarked, “Mr. Harrison, don’t act surprised. It was me who bought your wife’s pink
diamonds. What? Didn’t she tell you?”
Asher was speechless. How could Erica mention her to him when she wanted him to never see Eliana
again?
“Eliana, is that coffee for me?”
Asher quickly changed the subject and reached out for the coffee.
His hand slid deliberately across the back of Eliana’s, making her shiver in disgust.
She was about to step back.
In the blink of an eye, Maurice had snatched the coffee.
“Mr. Harrison, it is a policy of mine that no one is allowed to touch my things without my permission.
This includes my coffee, and my people.”
Maurice gave Asher an icy stare as he held the cup.
Asher shivered. He could see the warning in Maurice’s eyes. Maurice was like a beast guarding its
territory against an enemy.
Did Maurice mean that Eliana was his woman? When did he go out with Eliana?
Asher was shocked. He had an awful thought.
Did Eliana already know what had happened back then?
Then… Why did Maurice ask him to come here today?
