The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Chapter 493

In the evening, Eliana was sitting on her bed and thinking about something when there was a sudden knock on her bedroom door. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

A voice came from behind the closed door, saying, “Miss Pierce, Mr. Moran asked me to bring you some warm milk.”

“Come in,” Eliana said casually.

The servant came in, holding a tray on which there was a glass of warm milk.

However, Eliana was so restless at this moment and she was in no mood to drink milk.

She took the milk and put it on the bedside table.

“Okay, you can go now,” she said to the servant.

Seeing that Eliana didn’t drink the milk, the servant was flustered.

Gerald had ordered her to make sure Eliana drank up the milk.

What should she do now?

The servant didn’t dare to leave without having made sure Eliana drank the milk. She had no choice but to urge Eliana, “Miss Pierce, you should drink the milk while it’s still warm.”

“I’ll drink it later. You’d better leave now. I need to sleep now,” Eliana said indifferently.

“Okay… Good night, Miss Pierce. Remember to drink the milk.”

To press her further would arouse her suspicion, so the servant had no choice but to leave the room.

After that, Eliana locked the door of her bedroom. As for the milk, she had already forgotten it.

Lying in the bed, she couldn’t fall asleep. She kept thinking about what had happened today.

How was Maurice now?

Did they catch the person who set her up?

Feeling restless, Eliana took out her cellphone and browsed through social media. She was stunned to see all the recent articles about Maurice and Harriet.

“Harriet, the daughter of the Stone family, faints!”

“Are the CEO of the Moran Group and Harriet Stone going to get married?”

“The Stone family and the Moran family won’t only cooperate in business, but will also unite by marriage!”

“Mr. Moran and Miss Stone, the perfect match!”

As she read all these headlines, Eliana thought back to what Gerald said. At this moment, she couldn’t help feeling disappointed and hurt.

It seemed that what Gerald said was not completely false. Maurice and Harriet were really going to get married. She therefore had to put an end to her relationship with Maurice.

It didn’t matter to Eliana that she was treated unfairly. She couldn’t let her kids be badly affected by all of this.

Eliana was feeling depressed right now. Then all of a sudden, a message with the link of the live stream of the press conference held by Maurice popped up on her mobile phone.

She subconsciously clicked on the link.

During the press conference, Maurice denied all rumors about a possible marriage with Harriet.

He also said that Harriet had had an allergy earlier today and that was why she fainted. He made it clear that no one intentionally tried to harm Harriet. He added that the Moran Group’s legal team would take legal action against the person who dared to spread the rumor that someone had tried to murder Harriet.

Eliana was both pleased and moved when she heard Maurice’s statement.

He kept his word!

Maurice wouldn’t marry Harriet. Moreover, he even helped Eliana prove her innocence.

Eliana found herself wishing Maurice could be here with her, so she could give him a big hug.

Meanwhile, Lucia also received a cup of warm milk in her room. She drank it up without thinking too much.

Just as she finished drinking the milk, her phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Corbin.

“Lucia, are you all right in Gerald’s house? Did he try to make things difficult for you in any way?”

Corbin sounded very worried.

“We’re fine. You and Mr. Moran can rest assured. I will take good care of Eliana,” Lucia said firmly.

But suddenly, she felt dizzy and was beginning to lose consciousness.

“Lucia…”

After only a few seconds, Lucia was already sleeping soundly.

“Hello? Hello? Lucia? What’s wrong with you?”

Corbin called Lucia again and again, but she said nothing. All he could hear was her regular breathing.

Was she so tired? Why did she fall asleep so abruptly?

Corbin wanted to call Lucia again, but the press conference was over now and reporters surrounded him. He had no choice but to hang up the phone and deal with the matter at hand first.
