Chapter 298

Meanwhile, Corbin and the doctor had been waiting at Maurice’s home for a long time. When thedoctor saw the injured Maurice walk in, he rushed over to him.

After careful examination, the doctor told Maurice with a serious face, “Mr. Moran, your left arm isseriously injured now. You must recuperate peacefully. Remember not to exert too much strength withyour left hand, or your injury will not heal properly and you will have sequela.”

Hearing the doctor’s words, Corbin immediately became anxious. “Boss, I’ll arrange for you to behospitalized right away. Please don’t come to the office tomorrow.”

“No.” Maurice refused without hesitation. “My grandfather has a project for me tomorrow. I have to goabroad.”

“But, boss, your hand…”

“I’m fine,” Maurice interrupted his assistant. “If anyone asks about my whereabouts, tell them that I’vegone abroad tonight.”

That way, he couldn’t be here when Preston was.

Maurice came up with this perfect idea after thinking it over.

He had exposed too many flaws today. He had to make up an elaborate lie so that Eliana wouldn’t besuspicious.

“I’ll make your travel arrangements then.”

Corbin wanted to say something else but stopped on second thought. He could say nothing to convinceMaurice to reconsider what he wanted to do, so he just booked him a flight for tomorrow morning.

Of course he knew what his boss was doing. It was all for Eliana.

What torturous love! Corbin couldn’t help sighing.

It wasn’t easy in love nowadays. Despite being a CEO, Maurice got injured frequently.

Corbin swore to himself that he would never suffer like this when he fell in love with someone in thefuture.

“All right. I’m okay. You can go now.”

Maurice’s face was pale. He leaned against the sofa and closed his eyes.

It seemed that the boss was still going to hide Preston’s identity.

“Boss, it’s not a good idea for you and Eliana to be like this,” Corbin reminded Maurice, despite feelinglike he was speaking out of turn.

Maurice slightly opened his eyes, trying to conceal the struggle in them, and said in a hoarse voice,“After I come home from abroad this time, I will replace an opportunity to make things clear to her.”

Confused, Corbin asked, “You’re going to talk to her face-to-face?”

“I have to. That’s the only way I can minimize the fallout.”

One day after the kidnapping, Eliana’s face had healed a little and she was back at work.

She wanted to confirm her hunches, so she went upstairs to see Maurice.

However, before she arrived at the CEO’s office, she ran into Lilian and Harriet.

Lilian was still afraid of Eliana because of the coffee incident. Since then, Lilian didn’t dare provokeEliana again.

However, Harriet walked over casually and greeted Eliana.

“Hi, Eliana. Did you come here for Mr. Moran?” Harriet flashed Eliana a wide smile.

“Yes. I have something important to report to him,” Eliana answered flatly.

Harriet raised her perfectly shaped brows and replied, “Well, that’s going to have to wait. Mr. Moran’snot here. He went on a business trip abroad the night before yesterday.”

Maurice had gone abroad? On a business trip?

Wasn’t it the night before yesterday when she was kidnapped and Preston came to save her?

Eliana’s mind was in a mess. Did she think too much this time?

The only way for her to replace out the truth was to wait for Maurice to come back from abroad and askhim in person herself.

Seeing that Eliana stood still, Harriet said, “Eliana, if you’re not too busy or anything, come with me. Ihave something to ask you.”

Hearing that, Eliana snapped back to her senses. What did Harriet want to ask her?

“Okay, Miss Stone.”

Since it wasn’t proper for Eliana to refuse a request from her superior, she followed Harriet to her office.

As soon as they were inside, Harriet shut her office door, turned around, and eyed Eliana carefully.

“Are you a mother, Eliana?”
