The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Chapter 519

Earle put away his phone that contained Eliana’s message. He then looked up at Harriet who tried to discredit Eliana.

He was getting mixed feelings now.

Earle was beginning to realize that Eliana loved Maurice so much that she could give up everything and leave him.

And Harriet here… Harriet, whom he had chosen for Maurice, might not really love Maurice.

She and his grandson belonged to families of the same social status. Yet, she had already started to take sides even before she married into the Moran family. Moreover, she took Gerald’s side and started to help him when she learned that Maurice lost power in the Moran Group.

So why was he letting such a woman marry his grandson?

For the first time, Earle doubted his own judgment.

He might not want to admit it but he could tell that Eliana—and not Harriet—was the better choice for Maurice. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

With Earle staring at her, Harriet felt uncomfortable. She wanted to say something.

“Miss Stone,” Earle said in a tone that startled Harriet, “may I remind you that you aren’t married yet to Maurice? There may be ladies from prominent families, just as you are, who would give the world to be his wife. So it is for your own good that you behave yourself… Because I wouldn’t mind replacing you.”

Earle then turned away and left Harriet open-mouthed.

She couldn’t believe what Earle had just said.

What did he mean?

She had done so much so she could marry Maurice. And now, Earle was changing his mind about her.

Harriet’s heart sank. There was a pained expression on her face. She wanted to go after Earle but she couldn’t.

Lucia smiled to herself as she followed Earle.

She was somehow delighted to see Harriet being scolded. That woman deserved it for what she had done to Eliana!

Lucia, however, was worried about Maurice.

She hurried along to catch up with Earle. Holding him by his arm, she asked, “Mr. Moran, may I ask you something? Is Maurice taking over the Moran Group again?”

As far as Lucia could remember, Maurice had always been a good grandson. Even when he quarreled with Earle before, their relationship had never been so strained.

Earle took out his phone, glanced at it and then said, “The problem is solved. He will be back.”

“Oh, great!”

Lucia breathed a sigh of relief.

“Look, Lucia, I’m sorry about what they had done to you. Really, I am. I know you are a good girl. So if you want to keep working here, I’ll make sure that no one bullies you again.”

The change in Earle’s attitude was noticeable. He had become considerably cheery now that the matter with his grandson was settled.

“Really?” Lucia asked in surprise. “Can Eliana come back and work here?”

“You can come back. But Eliana, she won’t be coming back to work here,” Earle said emphatically.

“Why?”

Lucia had a bad feeling about it.

She took out her phone and punched in Eliana’s number. She couldn’t get through to her.

Lucia saw the e-mail icon lit up on her cellphone’s screen monitor. She clicked it open and found that Eliana had sent her an e-mail. She had attached all the files about the bracelet project, including the information about the factory she had contacted.

Did she want her to take over the project?

Lucia could sense that something was wrong.

It only meant one thing. Eliana was about to leave and she might have already left!

Damn it! What should she do?

She wondered if Maurice knew about it. Where could Eliana be?

Questions popped into Lucia’s mind. She didn’t know what she should do so she called Corbin for answers.

Corbin picked up her call.

“Mr. Jenkins!” Lucia said anxiously. “Bad news! Eliana might have left!”

“We… We already know.”

“You know?” Lucia was flabbergasted. “And what did you mean by ‘we’?”

In a grim voice, Corbin answered Lucia, “We knew it because… We’re here… Mr. Moran and I are at Eliana’s place now.”
