Chapter 105 Am I ! Not Charming Enough
"Nothing...Nothing at all! Ouch!"
Eliana shook her head so vigorously that she could not help but grimace from the pain.
Maurice said, "Don't worry too much.I'll take care of Nicole."
"Are you going to talk to her?" Eliana was surprised.
"You don't like to interact with female stars, right?"
The Moran Group and Maurice valued their reputation a lot, so there was rarely ever any gossip about them.
Maurice nodded and said, "You're right.I don't, but this time is an exception."
Upon hearing that, Eliana was stunned.
Did he consider Nicole to be an exception?
Did he really not mind the fact that they could be gossiped about? Although she felt really uncomfortable about it, she did not dare to question him anymore.
And she did not notice that Maurice was still staring at her lovingly.
In his heart, he knew that he was making the exception for Eliana's sake.
After attending to her swollen cheek, he walked out of the office.He walked straight to the VIP lounge, where Nicole was.
Eliana followed him closely, and wanted to enter the VIP lounge as well.
However, Corbin acted quickly and slammed the door shut before she could get in.
Eliana and Nicole's agent were both outside.
Corbin looked away from Eliana, who seemed to be pleading with him.
There was only one small glass window on the door, and she had no choice but to peep through it.
Inside the VIP lounge room, Nicole was surprised to see Maurice come to her.
She had only seen him in finance magazines before.
She could not help but think that it was a pity for a man with such good looks to be a businessman who only knew how to make money.
Nicole was stunned to see that Maurice looked more handsome in person.He was tall, slim, but muscular, dressed in a well-fitted gray suit and a black tie, which made him seem like a man who believed in abstinence.
There was a darkness and coldness in his eyes, which paired perfectly with his sculptured jaw.
With that kind of looks, people would focus their attention on him even if he was not wealthy or powerful.
"I didn't expect to see you here today, Mr.Moran," Nicole greeted him with a sigh.
After all, Maurice was well-known for turning a cold shoulder to actresses in show business.Why did he suddenly come to meet her?
"Let's get down to business."
Ignoring her words, Maurice sat down on a chair and straightened his back, emitting a domineering aura.
Even Nicole's bad temper was instantly suppressed, and her voice softened, "Eliana leaked the necklace design that was meant for me.How are you going to solve it, Mr.Moran?"
"I will find out who did it and punish them," Maurice said unhurriedly.
"As for your necklace for the red carpet event, I will lend you the Van Boshy that I collected." Nicole was a little surprised.
"Do you mean the Van Boshy necklace that had an auction price of more than a hundred million dollars?" NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
"Yes." Nicole found the deal to be inconceivably satisfying.
"Mr.Moran, are you doing this because of that designer, Eliana?"
Maurice asked back coldly, "Do you really think that's the case here?"
There was a hint of malice in Nicole's eyes.She was able to sense that he was not telling her the truth at all.
Since Maurice had come there personally to solve the problem, it could only mean that he cared a lot about Eliana.
Nicole thought that she could use that as a trump card to get more from him.
"The Van Boshy necklace won't cut it.Mr.Moran, I want you to accompany me to the red carpet event at the film festival."
She knew that if Maurice walked on the red carpet with her, it would certainly make her the center of attention.
"No."
Maurice immediately refused with a sneer.The undisguised ridicule in his tone infuriated Nicole a little.
She walked up to the armchair Maurice was sitting in, and sat down on the arm rest.She twisted her waist, revealing her slim and beautiful curves.
"I promise that it won't be a loss for you to walk the red carpet with me.Or do you not think that I am charming enough to be your companion?"
With a seductive look in her eyes, Nicole deliberately lowered her voice, like a coquettish devil.She wanted to test if Maurice's clean relationship history was true or not.
