The next day, Corbin told Maurice that Nana had asked him to look for Hodge.

“Sir, I think that there must be an issue or something.”

However, Maurice was not surprised to hear that at all, because it was pretty evident that the reason Nana was trying to find Hodge was for Eliana’s sake.

If he did not know that Eliana was the daughter of the Pierce family, then he might still suspect that she had ulterior motives behind her quest to find Hodge, but now everything was clear to him. She was only trying to find Hodge to figure out who was the mastermind that was responsible for the bankruptcy of the Pierce Group.

“Why are they trying to find Hodge?” Corbin asked in confusion.

“They’re doing it for the Pierce Group. Hodge is the only one who knows the truth behind the Pierce Group’s bankruptcy.”

“The Pierce Group? What does the Pierce Group have to do with Nana or Eliana?” Corbin was puzzled for a moment. “Wait… The Pierce Group, Eliana Pierce… Oh my God! Is Eliana the daughter of the Pierce Group’s boss?”

Maurice glanced at the shocked Corbin and commented lightly, “It seems that you are not stupid.”

“Didn’t you purchase the Pierce Group? Then, you and Eliana are…”

“Hmm…”

Corbin was about to say that Maurice and Eliana were enemies, but when he met Maurice’s cold gaze, he immediately swallowed his words.

“What should we do now?”

“You have to agree to find Hodge to Nana even if it means that you’ll have to dig a hole in the ground.”
