Chapter 54
The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy
Chapter 54 Not Understand This Man
"I am not authorized to give you any details about the client right now." Corbinâs expression was subtle
and his answer was vague.
Eliana felt suspicious.
However, before she could say anything, Bradly continued, "Why didnât the client come to the Design
Department to meet her in person?"
Turning his head to look at Bradly, Corbin curled his lips in anger and said, "What are you trying to say?
Are you saying that Mr.Moran has to come to you with the client first?"
"No! I didnât mean that," Bradly quickly denied.
He tilted his head downwards and looked at Eliana, who didnât seem happy at all.He added in a gentle
voice, "Itâs great that a client asked to work with Eliana, but itâs up to her whether to accept the project
or not.If she doesnât want to do it, I wonât force her to accept any arrangement beyond those within the
Design Department."

"Bradly, do you know what you are talking about?"
Corbinâs face darkened as he said, "Are you going to make Mr.Moran look bad by turning a client down
on behalf of Eliana?"
"Well, Iâm the director of the Design Department.As such, I have to be responsible for the members of
the Design Department," said Bradly, puffing his chest up with a smile on his face.
Although Eliana was moved by his words, she didnât want Bradly to get into trouble with Maurice for her
sake.She smiled and said, "Bradly, itâs okay.Iâm willing to meet this client."
"All right Go ahead."
Bradly gazed at her, his eyes gentle and firm, and added, "Let me know if you need anything."
Eliana nodded and then pushed Corbin out.
"Mr.Jenkins, letâs go.You shouldnât keep Mr.Moran and the client waiting!"
The two reached the top floor via the CEOâs private elevator.
Corbin opened the door of the CEOâs office for Eliana.
Eliana took each step forward cautiously and eventually found two people sitting on the sofa.
Maurice was leaning against the sofa leisurely with a faint smile on his face.
There was a woman sitting very close to him.She looked graceful, dressed in a matcha-colored
cheongsam.Her hair was coiled up behind her head, adorned with tiny gems.
It was clear to see that she had taken the time to dress up.
Eliana couldnât hear what she was saying to Maurice because she was speaking in a very low voice.
The slit of the cheongsam was noticeably high, and the womanâs slender legs were almost rubbing up
against Mauriceâs knees.
From a distance, anyone could tell that the two were being very intimate with each other.
Without conscious thought, Eliana stopped in her tracks.She felt breathless, almost as if someone had
reached into her chest and squeezed her heart.
Maurice raised an eyebrow at Eliana contemptuously and said, "Do you need me to tell you to walk
closer?"
He always sought revenge for the smallest of grievances.
Since Eliana didnât seem to have a problem holding Bradlyâs arm to make him feel jealous, he was
going to give her a taste of her own medicine.
Stifling her surging emotions, Eliana raised her chin and walked forward.
The woman on the sofa turned around and looked at her with a bright smile.
"Eliana, youâre finally here.Maurice and I have been waiting for you for a while now."
Elianaâs body froze in an instant.
The womanâ was none other than Evelynn.
"When Maurice learned that I want to change a necklaceâs design, he recommended you.I know weâve
had some misunderstandings before, but I trust your skills," Evelynn said in a gentle and sincere voice.
Her behavior now was significantly different from when they were at the dinner party where it seemed
as though she was going to skin Eliana alive.
Maurice had never taken the initiative to talk to her before, but this time, he enthusiastically invited her
to the Moran Group.
Evelynn felt flattered by his gesture, so much that she even deluded herself into imagining herself as
the future Mrs.Moran.
Therefore, when she came to the company this time, she had made up her mind to deal with Eliana in
a respectable manner.
Lowering her eyes slowly, Eliana noticed that Evelyn was leaning against Mauriceâs shoulder.
The man seemed rather calm and he didnât even reject her advances.
An inexplicable taste of bitterness spread in Elianaâs heart.
When they were at the dinner party, Maurice had clearly refused to be close to Evelynn.
But today, it looked like he had completely changed his mind about her.
Eliana couldnât understand this man at all.
Maurice noticed the change of expression on her face, and a satisfied smirk appeared on his lips.He
turned to face Evelynn with tenderness in his eyes and said, "Evelynn, just tell her what you want.You
can ask her to come up with any design you want."
Evelynnâs heart skipped a beat at his words.
Up until this moment, she didnât realize that she had been used as a tool for Maurice to make Eliana
jealous.
She looked at Maurice affectionately and said, "This necklace was made for our engagement
ceremony.Although the marriage has been canceled, the Jarvis family and the Moran family have been
on good terms for many years, and since Maurice and I still care for each otherâ¦"
Eliana interrupted her, "So what kind of design do you want now, Miss Jarvis?"
Evelynn had no choice but to stop.She glanced at Eliana unhappily, but her tone was still gentle as she
replied, "I want to change it into a gift for my mother.Can you redesign the necklace? I look forward to
seeing what you can do."
Eliana knew that there was no room for her to refuse.She smiled and said, "It would be my pleasure."
Evelynn smiled back, but her eyes were cold and malicious.
"One more thing! I would like to use an Argyle pink diamond on this necklace."
