Finally, Maurice caught up with Eliana. He took her arm and said, “Where are you going? Let me take you there. I’ll tell you everything in the car…”

“Let go of me!” Eliana angrily shook off his hand.

Noticing she didn’t look well, Maurice pulled his hand away. “Alright, I won’t touch you. Please just calm down.”

Eliana began gasping for air. She felt dizzy. Her thoughts were all jumbled up. Gerald’s words were like a knife, tearing into the most fragile parts of her heart, causing her heartache.

What was Maurice’s reason for hiding it from her despite knowing Gerald was the one who destroyed the Pierce family? Was it because Gerald was a Moran family member and she was simply an unimportant outsider?

Considering this, Eliana glanced up at the silent Maurice before her in despair.

“Let me ask you a question, Maurice. Do you think Gerald would ever get the punishment he deserves?”

Maurice was caught off guard. Then a firm look appeared in his eyes and he answered, “He will be punished. I will make sure of it, Eliana.”
