Chapter 662
Gerald calmly watched Earle, expecting to see him go into a rage after he discovered Eliana was related to the White family.
However, surprisingly, Earle remained calm after going through the information.
His expectations did not occur.
Earle sighed regretfully and placed the document he had read on the table. It appeared the Pierce family had no other elders.
Eliana stood next to him, twisting her fingers like an anxious little girl who had been called on by a teacher.
Earle looked at Eliana who had lost all relatives at such a young age, and he felt so much pity for her instantly. “No need to worry. You’re going to marry into the Moran family soon. You will become a Moran family member in the coming future. What does it matter if you have no relatives? No one would dare mistreat you again.”
Eliana was deeply moved by Earle’s words. “Mr. Moran, thank you,” she said sincerely. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Gerald looked at the loving scene before him and his eyes widened in shock.
What was happening? With Aleck’s skills and reach as Earle’s assistant, how was he not able to discover Eliana’s true identity? It couldn’t be possible!
Gerald yanked the document off the table and went through it carefully. He discovered shortly that the information on Eliana did not indicate she was related to the White family at all. It instead proclaimed her mother to be from an ordinary family. The information on Eliana’s identity had been revised!
Gerald subconsciously took a look at Aleck. Aleck was the only one with the chance and ability to tamper with the information.
Had Maurice bribed Aleck? How was Earle’s assistant bought off so easily though?
Gerald had attempted bribing Aleck over the years, but he had never been able to! So he was in shock.
Eliana wasn’t aware her information had been tampered with. She was overflowing with joy.
In all honesty, she had been very nervous when Earle read the information. She had thought Earle would take back his consent to the marriage because her mother was part of the White family. Although she had no knowledge of the sort of feud the White and Moran families had, since Earle was willing to put the feud aside and accept her, was she expected to let go of the fact that the Pierce family had been destroyed?
Eliana turned to look at Maurice standing next to her, and in an instant, her resolve was restored. Over the past year, she and Maurice had faced so many trials together. She strongly believed now that Maurice wasn’t the one who ended the Pierce family. He would have surely let her know if he knew the truth.
“That’s amazing! You can finally get married! I’m truly happy for you and Maurice, Eliana.” Nancy was filled with joy that the stubborn Earle had finally consented to the marriage.
She clutched onto Eliana’s hand and giggled with excitement. “Don’t head back today, Eliana. Stay here and have dinner with me.”
Eliana turned for confirmation, and Maurice nodded in response. “Alright, Mrs. Moran.”
The two of them headed to the kitchen to prepare lunch right after that. Nancy was bursting with joy as she prepared the food and chatted with Eliana.
“You must have a difficult time these days, Eliana. The men in our family are all troublesome to deal with. However, rest assured that I would always be on your side.”
Eliana’s face reddened as soon as she heard that. “You are so kind. Thank you, Mrs. Moran.”
The two went on happily discussing and dinner was about to be ready. All of a sudden, at that moment Eliana began violently trembling. The feeling of suffocation and dizziness began again, and she tasted blood in her throat.
Damn it! It seemed she was about to have another attack! She was scared! Never would she let Nancy find out.
Eliana covered her mouth with her hand. She glanced at Nancy and muttered, “Excuse me, Mrs. Moran. I want to head to the bathroom.”
“Of course.” Nancy was so focused on cooking that she took no notice to anything seeming off about Eliana.
Eliana hurried out of the kitchen before Nancy could even be done talking. Immediately after she got to the bathroom, she lost all control and spat out a mouthful of blood. Luckily, it didn’t seem as grave as it had been at the hospital. The dull pain in her chest lessened a bit after vomiting, however, her headache still remained.
Eliana turned on the tap to wash off the blood in the sink, and took a look at herself in the mirror sadly. Sweating profusely, her face white as a sheet, and blood dripping down the corners of her mouth, she looked like a ghost…
