Once they were finished with their visit, Maurice left the hospital with Eliana in tow.
Inside the car, the beautiful woman furrowed her eyebrows, seemingly lost in thought.
There were too many mysteries surrounding the accident. A lot more questions came into mind.
Restless and fraught with concern, she desperately needed a clue.
“Maurice, do you have any idea who tried to kill Hodge?”
Eliana’s eyes darted to Maurice’s blank face. Unable to come up with possible leads, Eliana knew that
she couldn’t solve the mystery on her own. Hence, she turned to Maurice for answers. It was highly
possible that her silent companion might know something about the culprit.
Maurice simply stared at the long road ahead. He knew Gerald was responsible for the accident but
couldn’t bring himself to reveal the secret to Eliana.
His aloof demeanor and poker face made Eliana suspicious.
“Maurice, please be honest with me. Have you discovered anything at all? I know you weren’t the one
who dismantled the Pierce Group, but the person behind it is a member of the Moran family, isn’t it?”
Maurice’s eyes flashed with surprise, but no words came out of his mouth.
Somehow, Eliana guessed it right.
The mastermind behind the well-executed plan was from the Moran family.
Eliana looked at Maurice with conflicting emotions. A tight knot suddenly began to form inside her gut.
Although Maurice wasn’t directly responsible for the fall of the Pierce Group, it still had something to do
with his family. From the beginning, Maurice already knew who was responsible. But he chose to keep
it a secret.
In order to shield his family from certain harm and possible retaliation, he even took the blame himself.
Eliana found it hard to swallow the truth. If Maurice truly wanted to protect the culprit, then her plan of
revenge would fail miserably in the end, no matter how capable she was.
She gritted her teeth and asked relentlessly, “If I find the evidence against the person behind this, will
your family be willing to hand over that bastard who ruined my family?”
Looking out the window, Maurice carefully thought of a response. He had no idea about the rising fury
in Eliana’s heart.
In the first place, protecting Gerald was never his intention. He chose to keep silent because he didn’t
want his grandparents to go through a period of pain and suffer once again.
Since his father’s death, the entire Moran family had been on the verge of falling apart. If something
bad happened to Gerald, it would spell the end of their clan.
At the same time, Maurice didn’t want Eliana to get involved because the impulsive woman was
incapable of handling the matter on her own.
“It’s none of your business. You have other pressing matters at work that require your attention.”
Maurice’s cold words greatly disappointed Eliana.
She thought Maurice still wanted to cover up for the culprit at all costs, even if it meant brushing her off
like a stranger.
In that case, there was nothing left to say.
Eliana leaned back in her seat with a stony face, frustrated at their fruitless conversation. Her hands
slowly curled into fists.
She shouted at the top of her lungs, “Stop the car this instant! I want to get off!”
Her sudden outburst startled Corbin, forcing him to slam on the brakes. He was so frightened that he
pulled the car over by the sidewalk without hesitation.
Before the car came to a complete stop, Eliana opened her door and jumped out but was immediately
pulled back by Maurice.
“What the hell are you doing? Get back inside!”
“We’re almost at the office. You know very well that we can’t be seen together. I just want to keep a low
profile at the Moran Group this time and stay out of trouble. That way, I can create better products than
that pink diamond necklace.”
Eliana wore a determined look and had a perfect excuse. Maurice had no reason to keep her from
leaving.
“Alright then, Eliana. Remember what you said.”
Settling back into his seat, Maurice let Eliana go and watched her get off the car.
Eliana quickly opened the car door again and walked into the crowded street without looking back.
