Chapter 285

As usual, the world continued on. As if nothing had occurred, Eliana went to work the following day asnormal.

When she entered the elevator, she was greeted by Maurice’s face. The white plaster on his left armdrew attention, despite his regular appearance of a straight suit and great stature.

His left arm seemed to have been severely injured.

As Eliana looked at Maurice’s arm, she couldn’t help feeling terribly guilty.

She was ready to approach him and inquire about his well-being when she saw Harriet walking fasttowards Maurice.

Eliana’s perspective had completely changed, and she had no desire to continue. She made a U-turnand walked away, feeling dejected.

Harriet rushing to Maurice was the last thing she saw before she turned around.

“What happened to your arm, Mr. Moran?”

Harriet reached out to grasp Maurice’s hand, her face contorted in distress.

Maurice dodged to the side, his gaze icy and piercing. “There was a power outage and maintenanceyesterday night, and someone in the Design Department was aware of it. Can you explain that? MissStone?”

“Oh my God! Who could possibly be unaware? Did anything happen?”

Harriet maintained her innocence charade.

“Do not play such tricks on me, Harriet, I tell you. There are repercussions that you can’t afford.”

Maurice had a history of cruelty and vengeance. When someone crossed his red line, he exploded intoa rage that no one could control. Eliana was the crux of his case now.

“Mr. Moran, you must have misconstrued what I said. I had no idea we hadn’t notified everyone aboutthe power outage and maintenance yesterday…”

Harriet resisted the need to lash out and instead spoke apologetically.

Even though she wanted to be the hostess of the Moran Group, she had to determine whether Silaswas Maurice’s son before she could forward with her next plan.

Maurice then disregarded Harriet and entered the elevator.

Due to her “excellent” connection with Cheryl previously, Eliana had already drafted numerous braceletdesigns based on her preferences and submitted them to Cheryl through email.

Eliana then headed to the pantry to have a cup of coffee to revive herself.

When she pushed the coffee maker’s button, nothing happened.

What was the problem?

Eliana tapped the coffee machine twice, and then a letter dropped to the floor.

The coffee machine had a problem and couldn’t be used for the time being, according to the note.

Could she be having such a bad run of luck?

Eliana was at a loss as to what to do with the cup she had in her hands.

Lilian, who had been feuding with Eliana, and a group of female coworkers entered the pantry at thispoint, laughing and talking. Eliana’s presence quickly silenced the other people.

Only Lilian grimaced, “Someone was so ignorant that she didn’t even realize she couldn’t use theelevator while it was out of service for repair. I have a feeling she did it deliberately. That was simply afantastic opportunity to have Mr. Moran come to her rescue by pretending to be in a bad position.”

Eliana had always been a target for Lilian’s wrath. It was only natural for her to make fun of Eliana aftershe learned about her ordeal yesterday.

It was a shame that Mr. Moran had shown up in person to help Eliana. What a happy accident!

In the beginning, Eliana was awestruck. She regained her composure after hearing Lilian’s remarks.

Clearly, Lilian’s ruse was to blame for what transpired the day before.

Eliana then realized that when Lilian came to her desk yesterday, another female coworker looked tobe trying to say something, but Lilian stopped her.

These specifics sprung into her head. Lilian, Eliana felt certain, had concealed the notificationregarding the power outage and maintenance from her.

Eliana felt a burst of rage in her chest as she clenched her fists in wrath.

It wasn’t a hoax at all. She wouldn’t have only been terrified if Maurice hadn’t gone to such lengths tosave her.

She may have been a goner.

Lilian’s loathing for Eliana grew as the latter froze in place.

“Exactly what are you doing there? Unless you need that coffee maker, get out of the way!”

Lilian shook her cup she was holding with her hand. Eliana politely moved aside as she rememberedwhat was written on the note.

“Of course.”

Lilian rolled her eyes and sneered at Eliana.

She went over to the coffee maker and hit the power button.

Coffee blasted out of the machine and into Lilian’s face in an instant. Like a hurricane!
