Chapter 182

In the Moran Group, Maurice slammed a document on the desk in his office with a loud bang.

He was clearly infuriated.

“What is wrong with you?! Under whose authority did you dismiss Eliana?”

Theo stood erect in the center of the room, confronting the fury of the company’s top executive.

Eliana was dismissed by Theo this morning, and the boss was raging because of his action. Theo was

so terrified that he wouldn’t even take a deep breath.

“Boss, I thought you said you don’t want her in your face again…” Theo replied in a low voice.

“Stop talking!”

Maurice’s temples kept twitching because he was so enraged.

Why did the HR Department choose such an incompetent assistant for him?

How could he dismiss Eliana without an authorization? Was he having a mental breakdown?

Scolding Theo was pointless now that things had reached this stage. Eliana’s reaction was unknown to

Maurice at the time. He had an inkling that she got enraged right away.

“How did Eliana take it?”

“What?” Theo raised his head and stared at Maurice in shock.

“What was Eliana’s reaction after learning she had been fired? A protest, perhaps?” Maurice scowled.

In truth, Theo shook his head.

“Miss Pierce took it without a trace of a second thought. The tone of her voice suggested that she

was… Cheerful.”

She accepted it without hesitation. She had a nice mood.

This lady lacked compassion.

Maurice’s whole body was ablaze with rage.

As soon as Theo saw the melancholy look on the boss’ face, something popped into his mind.

He offered a cautious suggestion, saying, “If you’d like, I’ll call Miss Pierce back. After all, she’s still

owing you money.”

“Can’t happen. What’s done is done.” Maurice’s tone was even more frigid than ice. “Theo, execute the

last task for me as instructed.”

“What’s the task? Please proceed, sir.”

Theo’s face lit up as a result. Was this an opportunity to make up for his mistake?

A tinge of wickedness could be seen in Maurice’s eyes. “Call all design firms and advise them not to

employ Eliana, and otherwise they’ll be working against the Moran Group.”

Eliana seemed to be getting a lot of good from him.

He would prevent her from working for any other firm since she didn’t want to continue with the Moran

Group.

As soon as she got into a bind, she would turn around and return.

Theo shivered uncontrollably. His supervisor was nothing short of vicious.

In his heart, he was sad for Eliana.

“No problem, boss. I’ll get right on it. But… why is it the last task, boss?” Theo was stumped.

Maurice’s demonic grin filled his face. “Because I also don’t want to see you in my vicinity.”

That left Theo with his mouth agape!

“Don’t panic. This time, you won’t miss any instruction.”

Suddenly, Theo’s face turned a ghastly shade of white.

As a result of his actions, his service was unneeded.

The days that followed Eliana’s dismissal were quite uneventful. Eliana was in charge of sending and

collecting up the kids from school and taking care of household chores since she had nothing to do

every day.

Eliana prepared a nice breakfast for the two youngsters one morning.

“Eat up. Later, Mommy will take you to school.”

Aileen was all smiles as she held the spoon up. “Yeah!”

In recent days, Aileen was happy since her mother and Nana alternated between dropping her and her

sibling off at school.

Kimora, on the other hand, was able to enjoy a carefree life thanks to Eliana’s free time at home.

Adrian took a drink of milk and squinted at his mother skeptically.

“Don’t you have to go to work, Mommy?”

Eliana suddenly felt like her secret had been discovered.

Her son busted her!
