Chapter 718 Examine Earle
Chapter 718 Examine Earle
"It's Mr.Moran! He's back!"
The shareholders and senior executives of the Moran Group were excited to see Maurice show up at this critical moment.However, Maurice looked completely different right now.He who used to be lively and vigorous, now looked very haggard.He had dark circles under his eyes and his face was a bit pale.
Nonetheless, he still had that same cold stare that made everyone who met his eyes shiver in fear.
"Mr.Moran looks exhausted." someone remarked.
"Well, his bride got missing at their wedding, and he had been looking for her for so long."
"I thought he fell into a deep depression after his fiancée disappeared.I didn't expect he would show up!"
Maurice's sudden return caused a lively discussion in the meeting room.
"Long time no see, my dear nephew!"
Gerald greeted Maurice playfully, looking very confident.However, Maurice didn't even glance at him.He passed Gerald and I walked straight to "Earle".
The fake Earle was sitting on a wheelchair, still wearing a hat and I scarf.
Seeing that Maurice was walking towards him, he backed away.He had shifty eyes and his expression was quite weird.
Before Maurice say anything to "Earle", Gerald nervously rushed to stand in front of "Earle" and blocked Maurice.
"What do you want to do? Dad doesn't want to see you now.Go away!"
Gerald shouted anxiously.
Maurice remained unmoved at Gerald's hostile manner.
Instead, he turned back and ordered Corbin who was standing behind him, "Bring Dr.Sampson in."
Corbin nodded and walked out.
Gerald's face suddenly changed at the mention of a doctor.He looked at Maurice with fear and asked, "Maurice, what are you doing?"
"Since Grandpa is sick, I have the obligation to treat him."
Although Maurice was talking to Gerald, his eyes were fixed on "Earle" the whole time.
"I don't agree!" Gerald was restless now.
If "Earle" was really examined by a doctor, his lie would be exposed! "] have been taking care of Dad all the time.Who knows if your doctor is reliable! I will never let your doctor treat him," Gerald shouted anxiously.
Maurice raised a brow and said calmly, "This doctor was specially hired by the Stone family to take care of Grandpa's health before.Moreover he also performed an operation for Grandpa in the past.He knows Grandpa's health condition best."
"No way!" Gerald still strongly opposed.
Seeing this, Maurice sneered, "Gerald, why are you so nervous? Why won't you let the doctor examine Grandpa?"
Gerald panicked.
Didn't Harriet assure him that she had hid the doctor? How could Maurice find that doctor now? Gerald broke out in a cold sweat.He desperately wanted to stop Maurice.But at that moment, everyone in the meeting room was staring at him.
Maurice's reasoning was plausible, and he had no reason to object to the doctor treating "Earle".Soon, Corbin brought Eugene in.
"Dr.Sampson, please examine my grandpa," Maurice said seriously.
Eugene nodded and walked forward.He put his hands on "Earle's"
wheelchair and said with a serious expression, "Mr.Moran, don't worry.I'll take Mr.Earle Moran out for a careful examination now."
The fake Earle freaked out and looked at Gerald for help.
Seeing that his accomplice was about to be taken out, Gerald completely panicked.
"Wait, you can't take him away!" Gerald shouted.
He was about to walk up to stop Eugene, but Maurice immediately stepped forward to stop him.
"Why are you so nervous?"
Maurice asked meaningfully.
Everyone in the room had noticed Gerald's strange behavior and they were all confused.
"Mr.Earle Moran is just taken for a physical examination.Why is Gerald so nervous?" someone remarked.
Gerald swallowed hard.His throat was dry. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Of course he was nervous! How could he not be? If the lie was exposed, he would be doomed.
Seeing the suspicious looks everyone in the room were giving him, Gerald no longer dared to act rashly.He could only sit back in his seat, with sweat trickling down his forehead.
The waiting time was a real torture for Gerald who couldn't sit still as he was so restless.
Sweating profusely, Gerald looked outside from time to time.
Staring playfully at his restless uncle, Maurice handed him a glass of water and sneered, "You seem uncomfortable! Here, drink some water."
Gerald took the glass.
But his trembling hand made it hard for him a to hold the glass steadily.
As a result, the glass fell to the ground and broke.
A cold smile appeared on Maurice's face when he saw the look of fear on Gerald's face.
"Uncle Gerald, you are far too weak psychologically for a member of the Moran family."
