The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Chapter 504

The sudden wealth put Eliana under a roller coaster of emotions.

She had been a daughter of a wealthy family in the past, but later she had become very poor. And after going through a lot, she stumbled upon such a huge amount of money.

However, the price that she had to pay for the money was taking in the fact that her family was ruined. If she had the chance to choose, then she would gladly live the rest of her life as a pauper if it meant that her parents could live a long healthy life.

“Eliana, you can have an amazing future with this sum of money. It’s probably the last thing that Ingrid could do for you…”

Rosamond could not help but sigh. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Eliana clutched the last letter that her mother had left her in her hands as she tried to calm down and forced a smile. “Don’t worry. I will move on with my life, just like my parents wanted me to.”

Rosamond uttered, “I am glad to see that you think that way. I believe that… Your parents will be pleased.”

“I also want to thank you for helping my mother keep her belongings safe,” Eliana said solemnly.

The Pierce family had been through hell that year, and if it had not been for Rosamond, then someone else would have taken that money before Eliana could get to it.

“And thank you for agreeing to help make bracelets.”

“Rest assured that I will be very attentive to the matter, and if you have any difficulties in the future, you can always come to me.”

Rosamond looked at Eliana lovingly, because she reminded her of her best friend. Tears welled up in her eyes.

She had given up on Ingrid before, but now, she finally had a chance to make up for it by taking care of her daughter.

Finally, Eliana could retain her design of the bracelet.

Exhausted, she returned to the company, and saw many people walking in and out of the gate. They all seemed to be going to Maurice’s office.

What was going on?

Eliana was confused. She walked up to a colleague who was watching the scene of bustle, and asked, “What’s going on?”

The colleague responded, “You haven’t heard? Apparently, there is going to be a new CEO to manage the company soon!”

“A new CEO?” Eliana had a bad feeling. “Who is it? And what about Mr. Moran?”

“Looks like it is going to be Mr. Moran’s uncle, Gerald! I heard that he is here to help Mr. Moran deal with the company’s affairs.”

Another colleague complained, “I don’t think so. He must be here to replace Mr. Moran. I am pretty sure that the company is going to be in deep trouble!”

What?

Was Gerald really taking over the company and replacing Maurice?

Eliana’s eyes widened in shock.

She had only not been there for one morning. How could such a huge thing happen in such a short time?

Gerald seemed to have gotten a chance to take over the company, and Eliana had no clue of Maurice’s situation.

Worries stormed into her heart as she thought of Maurice.

She figured that she had to see him!

By the time she came to her senses, she was already outside Maurice’s office.

And Corbin was not at his desk.

Eliana knocked on the door gently, but there was no response.

A moment later, she pushed the door open and walked in.

The whole office was a mess with papers and documents scattered all over the floor.

Maurice was sitting in his chair, looking fatigued. His eyes were closed, and he was massaging the area between his brows, dispirited.

“Get out!” he shouted coldly without even looking.

“Maurice, are you okay?”

He slowly opened his eyes when he heard Eliana’s voice.

A trace of embarrassment flashed through his eyes. “Why are you here?”

“Well… I solved the matter of the bracelet…” After a pause, Eliana continued, “And I want to know what happened. Why is everyone saying that Gerald is going to be the company’s new CEO? Maurice… Is it true?”

The office became as silent as a grave.

Maurice silently walked up to Eliana and hugged her. He then said in a gentle tone, “Don’t worry about me. Your task now is to think about how you’re going to date me.”

Eliana stayed in his warm embrace, believing that the reason he was in such a situation was because of her.

“It was arranged by your grandfather, right? It’s all my fault, right?”

Her voice was ridden with guilt.

Maurice hugged her tightly and said in a low voice, “Don’t think too much. This has nothing to do with you. You don’t have such a great influence.”

Eliana became silent as she leaned on his chest with a gloomy look in her eyes, but her heart was weighing with sorrows.
