Finally, this lady came to terms with the fact that he had been wonderful to her.

Eliana flushed and her eyes darted as the man’s hot breath dropped on her face.

Hodge said that Maurice was aware of her Pierce ancestry and that she had come to investigate him, but he kept her by his side anyhow. In the end, why wouldn’t he try to make amends?

Yet another factor remained hidden because Eliana couldn’t bring it up. Before he passed out, Hodge had uttered the word “Moran.” Even while it didn’t seem that he was referring to Maurice, the Moran family was clearly involved.
