The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Chapter 507

Lucia stared at Eliana in shock. Her identity being discovered so soon was something she did not expect. She was too flustered to speak for a moment.

A while later, she said, “I’m sorry Eliana. I wasn’t trying to hide who I was from you.” She was so worried that Eliana wouldn’t be her friend anymore that tears pooled in her eyes.

“Hey, relax. I was not condemning you. Whether you are just an intern or the daughter of the Todd family does not matter to me. Above all, you are my friend,” Eliana said, slightly amused.

“Eliana, you’re too kind!” Lucia heaved a sigh of relief. She had really been scared Eliana would end the friendship once she found out that she had been deceiving her the whole time. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

“So can you give me Earle’s phone number?” Eliana stretched out her hand in question.

Pouting, Lucia handed over her phone and asked Eliana to look for Earle’s phone number. Regardless, one doubt of hers remained.

“What do you need his number for, Eliana?”

Taking the phone, Eliana said simply, “I want to see him.”

Lucia was stunned, “You want to go see him? What for?”

“There’s something I have to talk to him about.”

“Absolutely not!” Lucia opposed as she yanked back her phone. “Mr. Moran always dislikes you. He almost got you sent to jail last time, have you forgotten? It’s too risky! I can’t watch you be a victim at his hands!”

“You can’t stop me, Lucia. If you refuse to help me, I’ll search for other ways to meet him.” Eliana appeared determined.

Lucia was terribly worried, but as it seemed that Eliana had made up her mind, she couldn’t help but give in. “Fine, I will help you.”

Eliana’s eyes lit up.

“Still…” Lucia heaved a sigh, “I don’t want you to see him all by yourself. I can help you get an appointment with him. At Moonlight.”

Lucia felt it was a good idea. They could keep Eliana safe if she met Earle at her cousin’s restaurant. Otherwise, if something really happened, and they broke into a fight, the relationship between Eliana and the Moran family would be irreparable.

“I appreciate you helping me, Lucia,” Eliana thanked her, understanding the reason for her words.

Lucia scheduled a meeting with Earle that afternoon at Moonlight.

Earle arrived, accompanied by his luxury motorcade and bodyguards as always.

In contrast, Eliana showed up alone.

“You’re here, Mr. Moran. Please, have a seat.”

Facing the domineering Earle, Eliana was not scared one bit.

“Tell me, why is it you wished to meet up with me?” Immediately after he sat down, Earle went straight to the point.

“You are so direct. Then, I will be direct with you as well. I want to ask you if you put Gerald in the company to punish Maurice for disobeying your words,” Eliana asked straightforwardly.

Earle’s face darkened immediately. He hissed in annoyance, “You, an outsider, dares to meddle in the Moran family’s business?”

A bitter smile formed on Eliana’s face. “It appears my guess was correct.”

Earle sniggered. “I’ve investigated it already, Maurice has been keeping you. If he proceeds with this stubbornness, I won’t let him take over the Moran Group. In addition to being deprived of his place at Moran Group, I will drive him out of the Moran family!”

Earle stabbed a knife into Eliana’s heart with his words. It seemed he was serious this time.

Eliana couldn’t stop herself from thinking about the family photo she had earlier seen in Maurice’s cabin. The once happy family had been pulled apart, and Maurice was the only one alive. She couldn’t let Maurice face the pain of losing his family one more time. And to prevent him from losing his family, there was only one way…

Eliana shut her eyes to hide the sadness in them. Her mouth opened but she failed to utter more words. What was making her hesitate? She couldn’t keep dragging him down.

Finally, she steeled her heart, and her eyes opened again. This time there was no confusion, only determination.

“Mr. Moran, if I am ready to leave Maurice by myself, can you forgive him?”
