Chapter 362


    After seeing off the senior executives of the Stone and Moran families, Harriet walked back to the


    Design Department with a long face. By the time she returned, Eliana was nowhere to be seen.


    Sitting in her seat, Lilian watched Harriet approach. She was afraid that Harriet would get even with


    her, but she thought she might have a chance to make up for her earlier mistake.


    “Miss Stone, what happened? You look unhappy. Is it because of Eliana, that floozy?”


    Lilian greeted Harriet with a ttering smile, hoping that she would be pleased by the Eliana nder.


    However, at this moment, Harriet’s mind waspletely filled with the image of Eliana and Maurice on


    the floor together. She was furious and needed somewhere to direct her rage. Unfortunately for Lilian,


    she had put herself directly in the path of anger.


    Harriet snorted and said fiercely, “Lilian, why did you bring Eliana to the meeting room today?”


    Lilian broke out in a cold sweat. “Miss Stone, what do you mean? I don’t understand.”


    Harriet’s face darkened as she red at Lilian with a vicious expression.


    “Do you think I’m a fool? You know what you did. If you can’t figure out what you should and shouldn’t


    do on your own, don’t me me for not showing you any mercy next time. Do you understand?”


    How could Harriet not know what Lilian had in mind?


    Usually, she wanted her to make trouble for Eliana.


    However, Lilian didn’t know how to act ording to circumstances. Clearly, she had crossed a line in


    Harriet’s mind. All she knew was that if she impacted the business between the Stone and Moran


    families, Harriet would definitely punish her.


    “Got it! I understand. I won’t do it again!”


    Lilian immediately lowered her head in fear.


    She thought that Harriet was different today, unlike her usual gentle and generous self. Lilian was


    frightened by the terribly cold woman that stood in front of her.


    After Lilian apologized, Harriet’s face instantly softened and she smiled at the woman. “I didn’t mean to


    me you. Just pay more attention in the future.”


    “Thank you, Miss Stone. Don’t worry. I will keep an eye on Eliana for you,” Lilian offered.


    As they spoke about Eliana, something suddenly urred to Harriet.


    To celebrate the cooperation between their families, Maurice had specially booked Moon Lake Manor


    to receive the Stone family. Harriet would be expected to take her subordinates with her to the party.


    However, today in the meeting room, she had seen that whenever Eliana appeared, she attracted all of


    Maurice’s attention.


    Therefore, she absolutely could not bring Eliana to the party.


    Then what should she do?


    Harriet looked at Lilian and came up with an idea.


    “Lilian, Mr. Moran has booked Moon Lake Manor for several days to discuss the cooperation with the


    Stone family. You can attend the event with me. As for Eliana, I’ll find something else for her to do.”


    Harriet knew how to keep people under her control. Lilian was still useful, but in order to keep Lilian as


    a willing pawn, she had to make it worth her while.


    Sure enough, Lilian was excited by the invite.


    “Really?! Thank you, Miss Stone! Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity!”


    Satisfied, Harriet nodded and said, “Go and prepare.”

    Back in her seat, Lilian shook with excitement.


    She was invited to a Stone and Moran family party! The other attendees would surely be either rich or


    powerful. This would be her best opportunity to try and squeeze into the upper ss.


    Lilian was still buzzing with excitement when Eliana returned.


    Lilian couldn’t help showing off as soon as she saw her.


    “Guess what! Just now, Miss Stone said that she would take me to the Stone and Moran family party!


    How unfortunate that some people will never have the chance to attend such an upscale party in their


    lives.”


    Eliana just smiled without replying immediately. Before her family had gone bankrupt, Eliana had


    attended this kind of party many times and was already tired of them.


    “Well, have a good time,” Eliana replied casually.


    “You!” Lilian was depressed that her gloating hadn’t elicited a bigger response.


    Before long, Corbin came.


    “Mr. Jenkins, why are you here? Did Mr. Moran send you?” Lilian greeted Corbin warmly.


    However, he went straight to Eliana.


    “Eliana, Mr. Moran requests that you prepare to apany him on a business trip to Moon Lake


    Manor for a few days.”


    “What?! Moon Lake Manor!”


    Before Eliana had a chance to reply, Lilian shouted in surprise.


    “If she’s going to Moon Lake Manor, then what about me?”
