Chapter 415

After a crazy night, Eliana woke up the next day, feeling sore all over her body. It was already noon.

And she was not surprised that Maurice wasn’t there anymore.

She decided to lie on the bed for a while to recover the vital energy that was drained last night.

After a while, a maid came in.

Eliana’s eyes lit up upon seeing the maid. She immediately asked, “Where is Maurice?”

“Miss Pierce, Mr. Moran is having lunch with his grandfather and Miss Stone downstairs.”

Eliana felt annoyed upon hearing this. She definitely couldn’t go out now.

Feeling disheartened, she lay back on the bed and covered herself with the quilt again. “Oh, that’s allright. You can go out now.”

But instead of going out, the maid told her, “Miss Pierce, Mr. Moran has ordered you to immediately godownstairs after you wash up.”

“What? What did you say?” Eliana instantly sprang up from the bed and stared at the maid inastonishment. “Maurice wants me to go downstairs in this situation? Is he crazy?”

The maid replied calmly, “Yes, Miss Pierce. He wants you to go downstairs.”

Eliana was stunned for a while. She remembered what Maurice said yesterday, and a bad feelingsuddenly surged in her heart.

Maurice was going to do something big.

But the maid didn’t leave, so Eliana had no choice but to reluctantly wash up and dawdled downstairs.

As expected, she bumped into Earle and Harriet in the living room.

The look on Harriet’s face dramatically changed. She exclaimed, “Eliana?”

Earle also looked at Eliana and asked in a very bad tone, “What are you doing here?”

Eliana stood rooted to the spot awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

Could she tell them that Maurice had kidnapped her?

“I was the one who brought her here,” Maurice suddenly said.

He walked over to her and stood beside her.

“Maurice, why did you bring her here? How many times have I warned you not to get close to thiswoman? Are you deliberately turning a deaf ear to me? Servants, come here! Drive this woman out ofthe Moran family’s house! I don’t want to see her.”

Earle’s bad temper immediately ignited, and he ordered to kick Eliana out of the house.

But before the servants could make a move, a voice rang out behind them.

“Who are you driving away?”

Everyone turned their heads and saw it was Nancy standing at the door.

At the sight of the familiar figure, Eliana’s tense body instantly relaxed.

When she glanced at Maurice, who had been calm all this while, she suddenly realized something.

No wonder Maurice called her downstairs so confidently. It turned out that he had already thought of away out. He invited Nancy to be his savior.

Sure enough, Earle, who was very domineering just now, immediately contained his anger upon seeingNancy.

“My dear, what are you doing here?”

Earle’s imposing manner suddenly shrank back in front of his wife.

Nancy looked at Earle indifferently. “The house is so lively today. How can I not join in the fun? Am I notwelcome here?”

“Mrs. Moran, you must be kidding. Of course, we are looking forward to your arrival,” Harriet saidenthusiastically.

She smiled warmly and stepped forward to greet Nancy.

But Nancy just walked past her and went straight to Eliana and held Eliana’s hand intimately.

“Eliana, long time no see. How have you been? Look at you. You have lost a lot of weight. How did thatbrat Maurice take care of you? Have you been so busy with your work recently that you have no time tovisit me?”

“Mrs. Moran, I’m doing well. But many things have happened recently, and I haven’t found a chance tovisit you.”

As she spoke, a sincere smile appeared on Eliana’s face.

“Alright. Let’s not talk about it anymore. You haven’t eaten yet, right? Sit down. Let’s eat together,”Nancy said with a happy smile and was about to sit with Eliana.

“Mrs. Moran…”

Eliana wanted to say something, but she hesitated.

Nancy understood and gently patted the back of Eliana’s hand.

Her gaze swept the embarrassed Earle and sullen Harriet. Then she announced in a domineeringmanner, “Eliana, don’t worry. Since I am here, I want to see who dare to drive you out.”
